More about Paul D....
What do you love about your job?
I love to capture moments in time. I know what it is like to look back on photographs many years later, so I love creating that for other people. Photographs are treasured memories and capturing and preserving those memories is something I love.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I have done many portrait shoots and I pride myself in my ability to make people feel comfortable in what is, in essence, an unusual situation! When I shoot events I love to look for those moments that would have otherwise passed unnoticed. When I shoot buildings, I always look to see what the light is doing and position myself to bring out the best in the building given that light.

A fun fact about this photographer
I am a qualified Private Pilot and have about 400 hours flying competition level aerobatics! I fell in love with flying when I was in my 20s and whilst am no longer very active - and certainly not doing aerobatics - I do try to get a flight in every now and then.
