Paul and I had chatted for a while prior to our shoot and had established a good rapport. He explained how he best works and this meant I knew fully what to expect when working with him. He was kind and courteous throughout and we got some amazing shots. Really good fun and 100% recommend working with him if you get the chance!

I have worked with Paul this very first time as we both wanted to work with each other for ages and it finally arrived. Paul is very sarcastic but in the right kind he made me laugh quite a lot and he had brought two other photographers which are good friends with him. Felt very comfortable, Paul was professional, down to earth and a great sense of humour. We all couldn’t stop laughing Which was brilliant. I felt like I have known Paul for ages and just clicked very well. After the shoot saw some of the images back of the camera and my face lighten up because how amazing they was. He knew exctley what he wanted from the shoot and we have planned another shoot next month in July looking forward to it. Thank you so much xxx 🤩

Paul invited me to a location shoot with FonicOfficial, obviously obeying social distancing. I think he did it partly cause he felt sorry for as I had been on total lockdown and partly cause he likes my lighting toys. I have worked with Paul a few times teaching lighting on workshops we have run together along with another photographer. Paul is very professional whilst still having a good laugh. He gives very clear instructions to both models and assistants and he even let me do some of my own shooting despite him organising everything. Highly recommended.

Had a brilliant day with Paul. Met him at a charity group shoot and from the moment we met we clicked. He is an incredible photographer- the list of ideas he has goes on - he made me feel really relaxed by helping with poses and directions. Not only are the pictures fabulous but so is he what a great day - we are now trying to arange another shoot ASAP :)

Thanks again Paul,

Paul is a very talented and extremely patient photographer! I first worked with Paul late last year, at the very beginning of my career, and I have to say- it was a wonderful experience, I didn’t feel under any pressure, I was completely comfortable and very well directed by him. We had our second shoot a couple of months ago, and the outcomes were fantastic! Recommend to all, experienced and newbies!

Worked with Paul today at a Charity event. He’s a lovely guy with a great sense of humour, easy to get along with and knows what he wants and how to get it, gives good direction, his images from the day are fabulous and look forward to working with him again sometime.

I worked with Paul Mid February, we had a fun relaxed pin up shoot with Pick up trucks and Cadallics at his friends (vehicles owners) house. None of us had ever met before but the shoot flowed really well and was very chilled out. It was a bright yet cold day so we took lots of short breaks to warm up / outfit change. Paul was easy going but professional and I would recommend him. We had similar ideas and were on the same page for the shoot which made it easy and enjoyable working with him. I am pleased with the finished photos and currently have one as my avatar on here. I hope to work with Paul again in the future.

I met Paul on a group shoot in Peterborough for a charity event and I’m so glad I did. We got on really well and he took really fantastic images of myself and a male model. He is professional, friendly, creative and has a wicked sense of humour. I would highly recommend him and I hope I get the chance to work with him again. Thanks Paul!
