Voted #1 for Best Detroit Photographers in Portrait Photography

Exactly the photographer I as looking for

Paul was exactly the photographer that I was looking for to update my headshot for LinkedIn and conference bios. I routinely get comments and compliments from friends and professional acquaintances about the quality and “”look”” he captured!

I don’t consider myself particularly photogenic and often end up making really odd faces in snapshots with friends. Paul coached me through a number of different poses at three or four locations at our shoot site. Getting the digital proofs back was quick and easy, and I ended up purchasing two shots.
