Jennifer Sent on 05/28/2025Paul V is the best in the biz!
Hands down my best decision in helping plan my daughter’s wedding was hiring Paul. Above and beyond just begins to describe his level of expertise. From Paul’s eye with the camera to his guiding hand with the wedding itself…yes, the wedding itself…Paul made my daughter’s dream wedding day come true. On top of that he even drove out of state to get engagement shots! Who does that? Paul V. did. He said he’d never not done engagement shots before and he wasn’t going to give up now. (We live several hours away from the wedding venue.) Paul’s wedding photos captured the details, the colors, the textures and, best of all, the essence of the happy couple and their friends on their glorious day. Again, so pleased I hired Paul! -

Paul helped make our wedding day feel perfect and effortless. We had started planning a year and a half in advance and Paul kept in contact with us about our vision from day 1. We had our engagement and wedding photos done by Paul, he is always willing to go the extra mile to capture those special moments and always seems to find the perfect angles (look up his aisle petal shots!). He is very efficient and strategic, the “day of grab bag” allows for you to place all your “detail photography” items in one bag to hand to Paul the morning of- it makes the morning less stressful as you don’t have to waste time trying to find your rings, grandparent’s keepsakes, etc. What I am most thankful for with choosing Paul V Photography was the organization and advocacy Paul gave us during our wedding day. My husband’s family can be quite overbearing and cause a scene to say the least. Paul met with my husband and I ahead of time to create a list of pictures we wanted and with whom. When my mother in law and sister in law tried to kick me out of photos, photobomb our first look, and take over family pictures, Paul kept to the list we discussed earlier and supported my husband and I (and photoshopped our photobombed pics-thank you Paul!). Despite the minor in-law drama, I was able to let it roll off my shoulders because of how amazing Paul handled everything and supported us. The pictures and videos were nothing short of stunning, I cant stop looking at them and guests are still talking about how beautiful the pictures are! I cannot recommend Paul V Studios enough, he is a photographer you will quickly realize you need for all your special moments both big and small. Paul has a unique, artistic eye for capturing those one of a kind photos, but he also has that genuine and familiar personality of a friend, our wedding party felt comfortable almost immediately which made the pictures turn out even more natural and genuine. -

We were extremely happy with Paul and his amazing work at our wedding. He was not only punctual but also maintained a high level of professionalism throughout. Paul added a fun and energetic touch, creating a relaxed atmosphere for natural and candid moments. The quality of his work is outstanding—his photos are more than pictures; they are artistic pieces that beautifully capture the essence of our day. His friendly and approachable nature, along with his creativity, made the entire process seamless. We wholeheartedly recommend Paul to couples in need of a prompt, professional, fun, friendly, and exceptionally creative photographer. Thank you, Paul, for your exceptional work and for making the experience so enjoyable! -

Zachary Sent on 03/27/2023Perfect wedding photos dobos 2023!
Lauren and I are SOOO excited! Our engagement session at Allenberry, our pre wedding day moments, and our wedding day of 170 guests which encompassed the whole Stone Gables Estate, which is massive, and was mainly at Star Barn was a dream of laughs and special moments.
Lauren and I thoroughly researched photographers for our Wedding 3/25/2023 at Star Barn Stone Gables Estate. Our family fully rented out Moonstone Manor the week of the wedding. Star Barn and Moonstone both advised that Paul V was their preferred Photographer and Moonstone had my favorite "Dino photoshopped wedding shot" hanging centered on their wall when we toured them that Paul shot.
We were considering 4 other photographers before our conversation with Paul. On our first call with Paul, Lauren and I had so much fun, laughs, and connection we looked at each other and knew he was the one we needed before we even ended the first call. He has his system, and is very organized, which took a lot of stress off of us on our wedding day. His package is insanely amazing he has been able to provide. He is the total package! He is the Legend! Every vendor we talked to for our wedding as we locked in Venue and then Photographer first knew of his amazing photography art, his hard work ethic, and his fun personality! Asking if the vendor knew Paul Vs work was Lauren and I’s screening question for our other vendors as if they knew Paul Vs work then we knew they had expertise with our Venues to make our wedding day special.
If you have a wedding at Star Barn, Moonstone, or photo needs anywhere as he offered to travel multiple times across multiple states for us you NEED HIM!
He gave us same day wedding day photo slide show, he got stunning photos of everything, everyone, and every special moment especially the unscripted ones as he is always in the right spot to get the special moment. The morning after the wedding we got hundreds more photos plus he is still working on some super special ones for us.

Jenna Sent on 01/30/2023AMAZING Photographer!
We used Paul for our wedding this past December. We had a Christmas wedding! He was incredible. From our engagement shoot on. He is a big personality and so am I so while some of our ideas were different or we may have misunderstood each other— he ALWAYS remained professional. He was willing to listen to us and I felt heard. He was quick to change little details as needed for my terminally ill father. I just cannot say enough good things. The picture quality is incredible. I have so many amazing shots I can’t choose which to print for our home! I’m very insecure so I thought ahh maybe I’ll get 8 pics I love… NO. He made me look and feel beautiful. He posed us perfectly. He is also lightning fast! He’s gets is all done. Follow his lead for timing and everything will go smoothly and perfectly. He was so good and pin pointing exactly when to have the women ready and the men and when to start pics for different times. I 10/10 recommend Paul. -

We are so glad we chose Paul for our wedding photos. He got a lot of great, memorable shots that look like something you’d see in a magazine. Paul put in a lot of effort with helping keep everyone on schedule throughout the day, and was very flexible when we requested additional photos with family/friends on the fly during the day. If you want the best photos you could dream of for your wedding day, you want to book Paul V! -

Mark Sent on 11/08/2019Amazing photographer and all-around good guy!
Paul photographed our destination wedding in Jamaica this past May. He was tremendously prepared, flexible fun and hard-working. He was there for the days leading up to the ceremony day and got to know all of the guests and was available for photos at the drop of a hat. He accompanied our group on our offsite welcome dinner and got action shots of guests and performers leaping from the Cliffs at Rick's Cafe. On the day of the wedding, Paul practically doubled as an on-site coordinator and he seemed to know the cadence and sequences better than the resort staff. The pictures all came out wonderfully and our book and thumb-drive were well designed and quite chic. He's super accommodating - he even came up to Boston to give us a complimentary engagement shoot prior to the event!
We would recommend Paul for any wedding or event but ESPECIALLY for a destination wedding as he seemed to be quite at home in that setting. Please give Paul a call and let him work his magic. You won't be disappointed! -

Nicole Sent on 11/08/2019Highly Recommend- Part of the Fam Now
There are not enough words to describe how great our experience with Paul V was. I found Paul while searching for destination wedding photos online. I saw his photos on Instagram and was instantly drawn to his work. I was very hesitant to book someone for our destination wedding online without meeting them in person. However, after a few phone chats and email exchanges, It became clear that Paul was very dedicated, enthusiastic, and experienced with not only weddings but Destiinatiit became clear that Paul was very dedicated, enthusiastic, and experienced with not only weddings but Destination weddings. In fact, he had been to our exact destination and resort for weddings many times in the past.
He knew the ins and outs of all of it and was not only our photographer, but helped us with organization leading up to it and while we were there. He even came to us for a complimentary engagement session so that we could meet prior to our wedding trip and learn each other’s styles.
We had a group of 50 friends and family. Paul fit right in and spent 4 days with us documenting the moments, the fun and the love, all the while with a huge smile on his face. Our crew loved him and even suggested we invite him back for reunions and anniversaries. The photos were gorgeous and our entire experience with him was relaxed yet efficient and detailed. It poured buckets on our beach wedding day. Paul worked it out so that we got the best photos and helped with timing and planning. We had a total blast. Thanks Paul! -

Jaimee Sent on 06/27/2019PAUL DOES IT ALL! Best Wedding Photographer
I want to say this part first because it is the most important, in my opinion. If you are deciding where you should splurge a little more for your wedding, splurge on your photographer – and not just any photographer, THIS photographer! Paul V is the best around and I am so glad we chose him to capture all the special moments of our day. Now that our wedding is over, it is so special to have our memories of that wonderful day and the gorgeous photos/videos. We are so lucky to have such beautiful photos to remember our day. He is worth it!! Now for the supporting comments…
Myself, my husband, our wedding party and my entire family are so grateful for the amazing job Paul did at our wedding. It is truly not an exaggeration to say that he does it all. When you first meet with Paul and discuss your wedding package he wants to get to know you. While this sounds so simple, it makes SUCH a difference on your wedding day. Paul did our engagement photos as well which helped him to get to know us and vice versa and he was able to see our personalities and tailor his photos to match who we really are. We met with him multiple times before the wedding to discuss all the details, ideas, timeline, etc. While we had a day-of coordinator, Paul was really the main coordinator. He made sure we were running on time, made sure the DJ knew what and when to play, made sure all immediate family members were present for the cake cutting, etc. There are so many small details that you don’t even realize and Paul takes care of all of it. On top of all the “extra” things he is doing, he also takes beautiful photos and videos! We did not use a videographer at our wedding but Paul captured every moment and more – I don’t know how he does it! His personality puts everyone at ease, even any kiddos that will be in your pictures, and that is how you get so many wonderful photos. This is his passion and you can see it in his energy and excitement on your special day. Paul has also been so great even after our wedding helping us with our photo album, additional photos we are ordering, etc. The photos on his website speak for themselves, but the interaction with him and everyone at your wedding can’t be replaced. The day is such a whirlwind that it was so important we had him there. He was familiar with our venue and all our vendors and everyone spoke so highly of him when they found out he was our photographer. We look forward to continuing to work with Paul for more photo sessions in the future (anniversary photos, etc.)!
Paul, thank you for all you did to make our day so special and memorable. You were the very best!

Robyn Sent on 06/26/2019If you’re looking for an amazing photographer, STOP. RIGHT. HERE.
From start to finish, Paul V has been absolute perfection. While our engagement shoot was beautiful, our wedding pictures were on another level. We received a sneak peak gallery the day AFTER our wedding. As a lesbian couple, we had problems with other photographers in the area being wishy-washy about doing our wedding photos. When we reached out to Paul V, the first thing he assured us was that our sexual orientation wasn't a problem, wedding photography was about capturing the love between two people and the day. He immediately made us feel comfortable. He KNOWS what he is doing and is professional and hilarious throughout the entire process. We also loved how engaged he was with us at all times--it wasn’t too little and it wasn’t too much. Robyn went to visit his studio in Harrisburg, where he took the time to explain the day-of-time line and show sample pictures, canvases, etc. of other couples’ weddings. He even gives you bags to place important things in the day of (rings, heirlooms, jewelry, invitations). Paul is truly a gifted photographer and we have no doubt that he will be our photographer for future important events. THANK YOU PAUL V! -

Kate Sent on 06/15/2019Awesome photographer!!
Paul V photographed our wedding day perfectly! From start to finish he was meticulously organized, quick to respond, and open to ideas. He provided a list AND a bag ahead of time for us to provide him with all of the things he needed to photograph creative pairings (invitations, shoes, jewelry, accessories, etc) so there was no time wasted and everything was kept together! We were also impressed that Paul attended our rehearsal to allow our family and bridal party to be familiar with who he is and vice versa. It was easier to gather everyone when they/he knew exactly who to look for! As a big time fan of planning and time management my husband and I were happy with Paul’s attention to detail and his ability to keep things moving! Thank you Paul V, for capturing our love on best day of our lives! -

Cassie Sent on 05/24/2019The best decision we made
Choosing Paul was one of the easiest and best decisions my husband and I made for our wedding day. Paul made our day everything that it was, PERFECT. Paul was wonderful with our families, our wedding party, and our guests. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos. Paul perfectly captured every moment of our special day. My husband and I will cherish the memories he captured of our wedding day forever. He was professional and fun, everything that we wanted from a photographer. He was also super fast, we had a preview of our photos by 12pm the next day, and our click and share gallery was available by 8pm the next day. If we could give Paul 10 STARS we would. My husband and I have been trying to come up with the right word to describe the work Paul does but everything we come up with doesn't seem like enough! He was amazing and wonderful in every way possible. We would definitely recommend him! -

Brittany Sent on 05/20/2019Fantastic!
Paul was absolutely amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. From the moment we were engaged, I knew I wanted Paul. I’m pretty sure I booked him before having a venue locked down. Paul made our entire experience perfect. Our engagement photos, designing our save the dates, and having our wedding photos playing during the reception. AMAZING! I am so glad we booked Paul. We saw wedding photos by 12:00 pm the next day and over 500 photos by 8:00 pm the next day. People haven’t stopped complimenting our photos. Paul was so flexible and did any photo we requested. Paul truly captured our fairytale wedding. Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it.

Gena Sent on 12/17/2018Paul V - Our Wedding's Secret Weapon!
After working with another photographer and being less than thrilled with our engagement photos, we turned to the venue-recommended Paul V to make a switch; luckily, he still had availability for our fall wedding date. Paul was a professional from the beginning, and though his personality came off a little strong at our first meeting, he certainly knows his strengths and how to incorporate them into his photography. He communicates ahead of time, arrives with a game plan, remains down-to-earth and enthusiastic about every couple he works with, and delivers stunning work. Not only did he travel out to New Jersey where my husband and I met, work, and now live for our engagement photos: he came early to scope out the area and plot the most efficient route to move between special locations to us (first kiss, weekend adventures, church, work, etc.). Organization and efficiency are both priorities to me and what we looked for in vendors, so he truly made an impression that day. Paul really took the time to get to know us, our personalities, and make us feel like we were walking around with a great (eccentric and creative) friend. Needless to say, our second-round engagement shoot was AWESOME.
By staying in touch with us throughout the following months of planning, Paul was frankly the glue that held everything together on Wedding Day. His familiarity with Harvest View Barn could not be beat – he attended our rehearsal to introduce himself to our pastor and coordinator and worked with our florist and DJ to ensure the entire day would be documented, from the details of the rings and bouquets to unpredictable moments on the dance floor and a sparkler send-off. We didn’t want to be caught up in the minutia of everything, and throughout the entire nerve-wracking “getting ready” portion of the day, Paul was the one keeping the bridal party and our families (all 21 of whom he knew by name!) at ease and on schedule, with his jokes and focused approach to directing the day. Paul worked alone, and he probably did the work of three people that weekend (he’s got his wedding formula down to a T), somehow able to find such beautiful natural moments amidst it all. He knew our other vendors and bounced around to grab some not-so-conventional shots, ones that we think truly are the ones we’ll remember. He captured the excitement and overwhelmed emotion in my father’s eyes as he first saw me in my wedding gown and as he handed me off to my groom. My brother played guitar as I walked down the aisle and at the last strum of the song looked over at me with a smile, a moment we’ll both never forget. Our ceremony was full of meaning and Paul was never in the spotlight – he and our pastor both prioritized the reason for the ceremony in the first place and stayed respectful of the moment. Since guests had no idea Paul was even there, when it came time to show off his slideshow at the reception an hour later, we were all blown away by the beautiful pictures.
Paul V is an investment you will not regret, and one that will go lightyears further than the “6 hours of coverage on Wedding Day” offered by other vendors. Upfront from the beginning that he’d get every shot we wanted as long as we communicated them to him, his prep sheet helped immensely when we were abiding by hair & makeup timelines, shuffling through multiple family portraits in the wind, and just dealing with the overall craziness of the day. Truly a one-man show, we were overwhelmed by the perfection of each photo (fully edited and ready the day after!) and are so excited to see our album and lite video later this month! A genuine and one-of-a-kind person, he was more than our photographer: we sincerely hope we will be able to work with Paul again in the future. Do not hesitate to trust him with the most special day of your lives – he will go above and beyond all your expectations and WILL deliver. -

Jennifer Sent on 09/12/2017My new husband and I got married on 08.25.2017 at Moonstone Manor in Elizabethtown, PA. Paul V. came very highly recommended and was outstandingly familiar with the venue we chose. We did interview other photographers during the process of looking to hire a professional photographer. But, without a doubt, we chose Paul V. Photography and are so very pleased with his work! And, are so glad we went with our gut instinct; he fit the bill/our vision to a 'T' as well as the styles for which we envisioned. We are a very outgoing, energetic and humorous couple to say the least. He was able to capture all of this and more than we could have ever imagined at the beautiful venue location of Moonstone Manor. He knew the location inside and out regarding the best photo ops, etc., and also, extremely efficient in respect to our timeline. Throughout the entire process, as well as our cherished wedding day, Paul was right there with us. He is truly a professional that I would love to work with again and wouldn't think twice about it! -

Ashlee Sent on 09/24/2016Paul is a wonderful photographer and such a great addition to a wedding day. He was very helpful with our wedding rehearsal and getting everyone involved in preparation for stunning wedding day photos. He was helpful from the very start in helping us find the perfect location for our engagement and save the date photos for invites. He also made my job less stressful when helping me prepare for my big day by researching our location weeks ahead of time and giving me extra details about locations for pictures. Paul went above and beyond on my wedding day by assisting me with last minute details hours before I walked down the aisle with the wedding planner so I did not have to stress out. He took such beautiful pictures and he scouted out some of the best locations and scenery for our wedding day. Paul was taking pictures/video from my hair/make-up starting at 7am until we did our final dance at 9pm. Paul loves what he does and when we received our sneak-peak gallery the next day....I felt like I was reliving my wedding day all over again. I could not have picked a more personable and enthusiastic photographer and I have no doubts that if you chose Paul V Photography for your special moment that you will feel the same way! Thanks Paul for making my wedding week in Punta Cana unforgettable and thank you for going above and beyond on making all my guests feel the same way! -

Becky Sent on 06/28/2016Worth every penny! In addition to taking hundreds of amazing wedding and engagement photos, Paul helped in more ways than I could list leading up to our wedding day and the day of the wedding. His wedding day timeline was invaluable. Everything flowed perfectly: no rushing, not too much extra time. He got to know all of the important people in our wedding by name, communicated with everyone so that we had as little stress as possible. He thought of all the little things to ensure the best pictures possible. Paul's energy level is super high, he works incredibly well with children, and he makes pictures fun. You will not regret choosing Paul and we could not have chosen better. In addition to the wedding services, Paul is a great guy. We experienced a family tragedy immediately following the wedding and the compassion, support, and follow up that we received from Paul was incredible. We'll be stopping by his studio in Millworks and look forward to seeing him around. Thank you, Paul, for everything!!!!! -

Absolutely Amazing!
Paul was our photographer for our engagement photos and wedding in October! Words can not describe how great of an experience Paul provided us! His enthusiasm and energy really helped make our day memorable and comfortable. He is easy to communicate with and provides much information about events before and during our wedding. He takes the time to get to know you and understand your vision, which makes the experience more enjoyable. He did an amazing job capturing all moments of our wedding and so much more! His photos and videos exceeds our expectations and we are so pleased with the whole experience! I would recommend Paul to anyone because he is such a talent photographer! -
