I had my second shoot with Paul, this time we did shoot indoors in my venue in Clacton-on-sea.

We did so many different sets and also he brought his beautiful guitars so I used them for the shoot. :)

Paul is very professional and experienced. He also has some great creative ideas, which I really enjoyed. The shoots behind the camera looked amazing!!!

Thank you very much for a brilliant shoot and I'm looking forward to working with you again! - Paul is highly recommended !

Today on my tour to Essex I had my first shoot with Paul. We shoot at very beautiful locations around beach at Walton-on-the-Naze, where we found so many amazing places to shoot at.

Paul came very well prepared and organised. His technical knowledge is spot on, very professional and experienced. Everything was flowing perfectly well and Paul worked quickly and efficiently.

He is a perfect gentleman, very kind and courteous, easy to chat too and very polite. Paul was a joy to work with! . I am also very pleased with the pictures we created :)

Thank you Paul, for this opportunity! I can highly recommend Paul to other models and I hope to work with him again in the future. :)

Second paid shoot with Paul at his home studio and such a great experience both times. He always puts so much time and effort into shoots and is very relaxed and assures I am comfortable and happy throughout, which shows in the images.

Would highly recommend every time and planning our next shoot soon!

After some time off from modelling i had the pleasure of shooting with Paul again and was overwhelmed with the whole experience. Paul is a very talented photographer which is obvious through his work and will put in a lot of effort and time in to making not only the photos look amazing, but also making sure you are fully comfortable and enjoying yourself throughout, which is such a key component in the whole process.

I look forward to working with him again and would HIGHLY recommend to others.

Great shoot with our team Paul, Martin, Val. We had a long journey to Norfolk for nice location. Unfortunately in circumstanses we couldnt shoot at location so we needed to find different location for our shoot. Not a problem. We explored the place and found 3 different locations for our shooting.

Paul very professional as always. Even when we didnt have a best conditions for our shoot he did amazing job.

Enjoyed our shooting day. As always pleasure to work with Paul.

Highly recommended.

Just another day in the office :)

Even under severe mitigating circumstances Paul came up trumps as always for our latest epic day out working with the inimitable Amber.

3 Locations, weather not good, Mary Whitehouse brigade out in force and yet still he smashed it with the images.

Awesome day, superb new locations used and scouted for future epic days to use in future.

No "I" in this team.

Another great shoot with Paul and our team with Martin G and his lovely wife:-) Great location, beautiful weather. Such a pleasure to work with Paul every time. Very professional and fun to work with.

Absolutely great day again:-)

After shoot I got all pictures and videos on my new laptop:-)

Thanks Paul

Amazing shoot with Paul. We were shooting at great location with Martin G and even his wife Val came to help us. She was taking pictures behind the scenes. We were absolutely great team. Paul is very experienced. I always appreciate that he is willing to explain me about lighting and just he is sharing his experience with me. I got a chance to have a look at the pictures the same evening and I'm very happy with the pictures. Great day. We had a lot of fun. Highly recommended.

After rather a lot of shoots together in-between my last reference, I thought it time I left another for Paul!

Once again we teamed up to work with another fabulous model, Amber Joseph May on here, and the results will speak for themselves. We had a fantastic day out shooting at a great local location then back to my abode for some natural light lifestyle, portraits and figure.

We have always worked as a team unit, with every shoot being a joint effort along with the model, who incidentally, ALWAYS gets the images from us first to use as they wish. No nonsense with Paul, he knows what he is doing, works tirelessly to achieve the teams goals and IMHO is the perfect person to work with on any kind of shoot at all.

I met Paul originally through a mutual love of photography and working with professional models instead of the usual wannabe's that come and go on a weekly basis. We soon started to realize that our goals, ethics and morals were identical, in that we both like to work with the same models time and again because it builds up a great working relationship. To add to that we have a mutual disdain for all things exploitative and always work to the premise that there is a minimum wage in this country. Our pictures we create have never been enough sustenance for a healthy diet, as far as we know, and we cannot seem to recall working for free ourselves in our many years combined!!

It always amazes me that I never see others building the sort of working partnership myself and Paul have together. Of course we become great friends through this, but when it comes to our photography together, it is business all the way until the last shot is taken.

To models :- Paul is a gentleman with a great sense of humour. He is very experienced and knowledgeable about all things photographic and is also all to happy to share this with anyone intelligent enough to listen.

I recommend Paul as ever as a great photographer and of course friend. I do not say this just because his lovely wife makes rather nice cakes for me on very rare occasion :) ( I shall get seriously battered for that last comment!!!!)

I had my second shoot with Paul. We were shooting on beautiful location. Again great with set up the lights. Great communication. He always explained to me what he is doing. He brought his own guitar and we made some amazing pictures with it. Shoot was fun and I'm very pleased with pictures. Highly recommended.

I had my first paid shoot with Paul. We were doing outside shoot and we had a few different locations. He was great with set up the lights. He also explain to me everything what he is doing which is gonna help me in future. He had some great ideas and we had really nice and funny shoot. I got pictures the same day and I got a chance to pick my favourites so he is gonna edit them for me. I recommended Paul and hope to work with him again.

Had my second shoot today with Paul, accompanied by another photographer.

As always a lovely photographer, made me feel very comfterable and came out with some beautiful shots!

He is a highly skilled photographer and knows what hes talking about, would recommend him highly.

I worked with Paul along side another photographer on a studio and location shoot today. I had great fun and he is very friendly and made me feel very comfortable throughout.

His communications before were great and even picked me up from Colchester to make my travels easier, which was fantastic help!

He got the pictures back to me quickly and I love them! I highly recommend Paul and cannot wait to work with him again myself.

Oona Star

Paul is a very easy going and skilled photographer, he helped me with my first shoot to create my portofolio and he made it a very fun and relaxing shoot

Also gave me lots of good advice and direction as being new to the site- thanks paul!

Had an amazing shoot with Paul and friend.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with them. Genuine nice guys. Very easy to communicate with.

Gave direction when needed. Just generally awesome shoot all the way through.

This was my first time working with 2 photographers at the same time. But it ran very smoothly. Very organised and proffesional, but still had a laugh too.

Would love to work with Paul and friend again in the near future. To create some more fantastic images.

Highly recommended to work with :)

Another epic shoot completed working with Paul. As a certain chaser would say "just another day in the office"

This time we were in the 4 models hands as to what they wanted, with everything organized to perfection by one of them (katie attwater) and just as ever, we got some fabulous images working as a team. Paul is a great friend, fantastic to work alongside and no stone is left un-turned when doing so. Immaculate preparations,immaculate time keeping, fantastic idea's, superb photography and always a great laugh to boot.

There is no "I" in team, just as there is no "I" in Paul. ALWAYS an immense pleasure working with him, and that is exactly what we do. Work "with" each other and imho perfectly so.

Recommended to any photographer wanting to learn a thing or 100's on a share shoot basis and of course any model who would benefit massively from doing so to. There are very few decent, honest, reliable, good people in this business, and I can say unreservedly that Paul is one of them that any model or photographer should be beating down his door to work with. YOU are seriously losing out of you don't.
