More about Paul L....
What do you love about your job?
I love creating stories that immortalise and enhance reality. I love that I can work without looking at the clock, waiting for 6 PM to come and run home, but rather enjoy what I do enough to forget about time. I love that I can bring to life stories that I imagine. Last, but not least, I love that I could turn my hobby into my everyday work so it’s not really work for me, it’s creative, fun, never boring and always rewarding.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I mostly work with products so the shoots are quite private, but sometimes I get representatives to direct the shoots and I like to make them feel comfortable around me so we can work together seamlessly. It usually starts with a coffee or beer and a good laugh.
Awards, honors, and recognitions received
I'm one of the 2020 finalists of the One Eye Land international still life photography contest. A couple of years ago Nikon chose one of my images for their anual calendar and I've been happy to show some of my work in different exhibitions in Europe.
A fun fact about this photographer
Before creative industry I was a pro skater for a few years and I was sponsored by Vans for a couple of months.
