    Perfect Wedding Photographer!

    Paul photographed our wedding a few weeks ago, everything went perfect! He was very helpful throughout the wedding process and especially on the wedding day. We had multiple family members and friends comment on how amazing Paul was and how he got the best shots all day! When we received our wedding photos we were ecstatic with how they turned out!

    Personable, professional, made the wedding planning and day of stress free!

    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.

    Amazing Photographer :)

    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!

    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!

    Great pictures and professional

    Paul is wonderful! He is good with timing, takes beautiful pictures, and has really fast turn around time. He did our wedding pictures on July 4th at Moonstone Manor, as well as pictures of the two of us at the Harrisburg Capitol and at our wedding welcome dinner. Highly recommend him for your wedding

    Awesome photographer and fun guy

    Paul was our photographer for our June 2023 wedding. He was great to work with and kept the mood light and entertaining for both engagement photos and wedding day. He was easy to communicate with and provided all the information needed for pricing, photo style, and timeline for all events. We also had him do some lite video of our wedding day. He is a one-man show and everything turned out as we hoped.

    Perfect 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.

    Our PERFECT wedding team (vendors): Paul V Photographer, Star Barn Venue, Moonstone Manor Venue, Food for Thought Catering, Miss Lyss Planner, Fx Photobooth, Klock Entertainment (Nick) DJ, Bloom Bliss Florals, Tangles Hair, Dublin Bridal Dress, Premiere 1 Shuttle.

    AMAZING 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.

    Hire Paul as your Photographer!

    We chose our wedding photographer before we even had a venue. We knew how important it was to have the correct person capturing our special moments. Paul is your guy. He has a great eye and captured moments we didn't even know were happening. We love the photos he took. He was easy to work with and seamlessly handled some difficult personalities in our group. Listen to him, take his advice, he's the expert and it will result in beautifully captured moments.

    Amazing 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!

    Absolutely wonderful - we love Paul!

    We chose Paul to photograph our wedding because of his incredible skills and attention to detail. From our first meeting, Paul made us feel comfortable and excited to have him capture our special day. He is very personable, professional, organized - and most of all - Paul is fun! All of our family and friends absolutely loved him as much as we did. We can’t say enough great things about Paul - he is THE BEST. He is a great communicator and responds quickly to any questions or concerns you may have. We are constantly looking at our wedding pictures and reliving the day because of the stunning photos Paul took for us!

    Incredible photographer!

    Paul photographed our engagement photographs and our wedding. He went above and beyond for us at both events. Originally, my husband and I were supposed to have a destination wedding in Jamaica. Paul was planning to travel with us to photograph the wedding. Due to the pandemic, we had to cancel our original plans and had a local wedding. Paul helped us replan our entire wedding in a very short period of time and did a fabulous with our photographs. We couldn’t have been happier with how our photographs turned out. He was kept our experience fun and was a pleasure to have around us on our special day. We have amazing photographs to remember our day for years to come! We can’t thank Paul enough for everything.

    Amazing!!!

    Paul was referred to me from a friend. As soon as we saw the photos on his page we knew we wanted him to be our photographer. He has an awesome personality and is so fun to work with. He was very accommodating. We knew from the first time we met with him we had nothing to worry about when it came to our photos. He went above and beyond to make sure he captured exactly what we were looking for. He attended our rehearsal and took the time to get to know our wedding party so there was no awkwardness and when it came to taking photos. We cannot stress enough how amazing Paul was and how happy we are with our photos.

    Amazing Pictures

    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!

    Amazing!! Beautiful photos that we can treasure forever!

    Wow!! Paul did an amazing job to capture every moment!! He took the time to get to know us through our engagement session and stayed in contact to outline what we wanted for our day of. He was all over the place making sure to get both myself and my girls captured as we got ready along with my husband and his groomsmen. We decided to not do a first look which meant all of our photos together would be done during the cocktail hour. Paul did an amazing job getting all of the photos with family, friends, bridal party, and shots of just the two of us in a quick fashion that we were able to go back and join our guests for cocktail hour! We absolutely love our pictures and were able to view our gallery the next day!! When you are at your wedding you want to enjoy all the moments with everyone and not feel like you are running around taking pictures and missing moments with your guests. Paul was able to get the shots we wanted and we never felt that we missed parts of our wedding! We would highly recommend Paul to anyone!!!

    If 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!

    Paul is phenomenal!!!

    Getting Paul to be our photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding! He’s a one-man army but has the energy, skills and efficiency of five photographers combined. He has a very jovial, bubbly and humorous personality, ensuring we never felt awkward/embarrassed while capturing the most candid and intimate pics during the wedding and for our engagement photoshoot. On the wedding day, not only was he our photographer, he was also our “unsaid” event coordinator making sure none of the beautiful moments were missed out on. Some of the pictures and moments that he managed to capture just took our breath away. Not only is the quality of his work exceptional but the speed at which we received a “preview” of our wedding pictures was also unbelievable – quite literally within a few hours of the wedding. We can’t thank Paul enough for making our wedding so memorable and don’t think we’d ever go to someone else again for our photography needs!!
