So creative and always has that 'extra'...
At Knight Frank Building Consultancy we deliver fitout & refurbishment projects which demand high quality images and visuals on completion.

His work is so creative and always has that 'extra' making our projects look superb! Paul always delivers in terms of quality and timescales, and we look forward to working with him on many more projects in the future.

Professional and of a very high standard...
I could not ask for more from Paul. He was extremely fast to respond and communicated well at all times. He showed great ability to problem solve and was very accommodating. His photography work is professional and of a very high standard. He was extremely accurate in completing our task, which had some very specific requests. If you choose to hire him, you will not be disappointed.
Joe Delaney - Managing Director, Tritech Engineering.
The results always blows me away...
We have commissioned Paul to take internal and external architectural photographs on a number of occasions now and would have no issue recommending Paul to my colleagues in the industry. I have always found Paul to be easy to work with and attentive to our clients needs. The end results always blow me away. Looking forward to our next photography project together.
Stephen O'Connor - Associate Director, C+W O'Brien Architects.
Paul has always come up trumps...
I have worked with Paul for a few years now, and have given him some challenging jobs, both internal with product shots and external with shots of our lighting systems on the street. Paul has always come up trumps and brought life to what could be considered to be a boring subject, to some. He has a great vision of what the shot should be like and followed (or wrote) the briefs very well. I would highly recommend him for any photography work and he is the only one on my list for upcoming projects.
