Meet Paul in Tofino

What I really love is making a genuine connection with the people I'm lucky enough to photograph. Then with some minor direction and a little anticipation, you can really find that blend of epic and intimate. Those little in-between points in time that show you in your comfort zone, but also at your best. I know I've done a good job when people tell me they didn't even remember one of these moments happening, let alone me being there! I’ve also sold stuff in galleries and had photos published here and there, but to be frank, I have a far better memory of who I’ve photographed!

    Favourite Place to Shoot: Oh gosh, I'm terrible at picking favourites, but I could probably struggle towards a top 3: North Chesterman Beach for the variety; Schooner Cove for the seclusion; and the rainforest for the light.

Three Things

  1. Variety is probably one of my biggest loves - whether it's tasting new foods, seeing new places or meeting new people. After leaving London 14 years ago and working in over a dozen countries, change really became the routine.
  2. I suppose one thing I couldn't live without is my sense of perspective. Ooh, and cheese!
  3. Apparently I'm the guy people open up to. Strangers, friends..it doesn't seem to matter! I also have a reputation for taking a long time to get anywhere, as I get distracted by little things on the path. But when you see a cool shell or leaf, why not stop to appreciate it?

We had an amazing experience working with Paul. From start to finish, he was professional, responsive, and genuinely passionate about his work. He made me feel completely at ease during the shoot, which really shows in the final photos. The quality of the images exceeded my expectations—beautiful composition, great attention to detail, and a natural ability to capture authentic moments. Turnaround time was quick, and the final edits were polished without feeling overdone. If you’re looking for someone talented, reliable, and easy to work with, I highly recommend Paul. I would absolutely book again.

✨ The most magical photo experience of our lives! ✨ We are absolutely blown away by the photos from our recent family session. From start to finish, [Photographer's Name] created such an intentional and relaxed experience for us. As a mom of three wild boys and a husband who's rarely home due to work, capturing these memories was so important to me—and [Photographer's Name] truly delivered something beyond what I ever dreamed. He took the time to really listen—to understand what mattered to us, what kind of vibe we wanted, and what would feel natural and meaningful. We never once felt rushed or posed in a stiff way. Instead, we laughed, we played, and we soaked in the beauty of the beach together as a family… and somehow, [Photographer's Name] managed to capture it all with such warmth, depth, and heart. Every single photo tells a story. The candid smiles, the wind in our hair, the way my kids looked at each other… pure magic. I cried (okay, sobbed) looking through the gallery. These aren’t just photos—they’re memories frozen in time. If you’re looking for someone who will not only give you stunning images, but also an experience you’ll never forget—book him. Trust me. This was one of the best decisions we’ve made as a family. We’ll treasure these forever.

Paul was wonderful! He suggested a great spot in Tofino and was able to create magic from our chaos. He arrived early to the shoot, was very calm and easy going yet so efficient. We booked the half hour session, and he was able to connect with us, coach us, chit chat about the area and capture these beautiful photos. He helped all of us to have fun and explore so that we didn’t feel staged. My husband is serious, my daughter can be more quiet, my son is a goof, and I was nervous. He helped all of our different personalities feel at ease and captured the light heartedness of our family. We had a lot of fun! Thank you so much Paul for your time and talent. These pictures will be treasured forever!

Paul is a fantastically experienced, friendly and professional photographer. It was our first time doing a photoshoot and Paul immediately made us feel relaxed and comfortable. The communication was smooth and Paul was nice enough to accomadate to my changes and requests several times. The final photos came out BEAUTIFULLY. Every picture looked natural and artistic. Paul really has an eye for well designed compositions, and was able to accentuate our photos by leveraging the nature around us. Paul is quite popular as a photographer in the Ucluelet Tofino area, so don't hesitate to book him if you're looking for a set of beautiful photos that will last you a lifetime!
