Voted #1 for Best Detroit Photographers in Portrait Photography

The Most Prized Captures

Paul captured my daughter’s passion and senior spirit in a way that we could not have imagined. The photos he caught of her in cheer stunts are the most prized captures of her high school years. I am so thankful for his skill, creativity and patience in capturing the moments that we hold now for always. Looking forward to seeing Paul again for family portraits and pictures of Gracie’s younger siblings. So recommend Paul to capture the moments you want to remember.
