After being asked to shoot a close friend's wedding in 2004 (On film, we might add!), he fell in love with capturing moments during such an important day. Paul has a true knack for evoking the rawness of every event and can articulate a distinct voice for every session he is privileged enough to be a part of. When Paul isn't taking pictures, he is spending time with his family, dressing as Darth Vader, or finding the best carnitas fries in San Diego.
