The photographs are fantastic! Everyone who has seen our pictures has inquired about the photographer who could have captured the day so perfectly. The photographs were emotional without being sappy.

Paul is an amazingly talented photographer with a sharp eye for special moments, reactions and facial expressions. He’s also very easy to work with and is an absolute professional. He responds to emails quickly, has an organized and professional customer website, and turns the photos around in under two weeks (in my experience). He’s also quick on his feet; I’m not sure how he got all the shots he did without us noticing he was running around! I would highly recommend Paul!

most professional and friendly. creative genius; was able to work with whatever non-traditional aspects we incorporated into the wedding and captured plenty of emotions in its raw form. highly recommend. also very prompt in getting prints out. A slideshow highlighting the wedding was ready the day after, and prints were available in 3 weeks time. Guests and friends that weren't able to make the wedding are all still raving about his work.

As a former White House photographer, Paul Morse's photographic pedigree is superb. Paul brings this same skillful approach to weddings, and captures candid and emotional moments in a remarkably unobstrusive way.
