    The best photographer we could have asked for

    We feel so lucky to have had Paul as the photographer for our wedding at Straus Ranch. From our initial meeting with him several months before our wedding, to the day of the wedding itself, and the very prompt follow up with preview shots within days of the wedding and a huge and beautiful selection of photos within weeks, we could not have asked for a better experience. We chose Paul because his photos were so evocative and this was very true of the photos he took of our wedding – they take us right back to that day and all of the wonderful emotions. He clearly loves what he does and it shows in the photos he takes. He was also great in making us (two people who don't love getting photos taken) feel comfortable and was very efficient in directing our wedding party and extended family in all of the pre- and post-ceremony shots, in addition to taking beautiful photos of the ceremony itself and capturing the fun and energy of our reception. We cannot recommend Paul highly enough!

    Fabulous! The photos are just stunning. Paul really has an eye for placement and lighting and all that amazing stuff that great photographers do. You will be very happy hiring Paul, I promise you. :)

    Not only is he skilled, but he really goes the extra mile. We got married at a river and to our surprise, Paul spontaneously and swiftly waded out into thigh-deep water to get the best shots! He's an avid nature lover himself, intimately acquainted with nature in all her mutable power and beauty. Therein lies the art form: working with the elements and creating something extraordinary.

    Overall, Paul was very accommodating and personable throughout the process of nailing down this epic event. Honesty and dependability are qualities I value in any business transaction, and he's got 'em. Oh, and he also snuck in a few casual humorous shots that were really fun. It's too easy to get serious about big things like weddings, right? Relax and let this guy work his photographic magic for you!

    If you continue searching for a photographer once you've found Paul, you're wasting your time. Paul exceeded our expectations throughout the entire experience related to our wedding.

    Paul is, quite simply, as good as it gets. From our engagement photos to the highlights slideshow he put together, he went above and beyond. He even put in the time to complete the small, time-consuming edits that made all the difference in the end. He's a pleasure to work with, he shows that he's personally invested in your big day, and he's the kind of person you would love to stay in touch with when it's all over. We can't recommend Paul highly enough! Do it!

    Stunning photos and a pleasure to work with are the two phrases that come to mind when I think of Paul, but that does not even begin to describe how wonderful he is as a wedding photographer. We used Paul for both engagement photos in San Francisco, and our wedding photos at Trentadue winery in Healdsburg, CA. In both settings his photojournalist training and expertise created the most amazing shots. His calm, easygoing personality puts you at ease so that you are not focusing on the camera, but your loved one. Paul worked solo for our wedding, but was able to cover the entire event flawlessly. We are so happy with all of our wedding photos: preparation (for both bride and groom), first look, ceremony, wedding portraits, and candids of friends, family, and reception. He managed to catch all those perfect moments without us even noticing. We would highly recommend him to any of our friends.

    Paul came recommended to us from friends who had hired him to photograph their wedding. After doing our due diligence and researching several other photographers, we decided to hire Paul after thoroughly checking out his website and finding out what he would charge – turns out that his price was very competitive, and the deal maker for us was that he would cover our entire event from start to finish (a 12 hour day) without charging any “overtime.” Many other photographers we researched had a set number of hours that they would be onsite, and anything beyond 4 – 6 hours warranted an “overtime” charge. Given that we were having a late afternoon wedding and wanted to take all of our photos before the wedding to save time, we knew we would need someone who could be there all day, and at an affordable price. Paul is a wonderful guy with a warm, easygoing personality – as soon as we met him in person, we knew we had made the right choice. He has been a photographer for magazines, shooting scenes in nature and such, in addition to doing weddings. So his creativity and ability to capture moments without staging them was highly desirable to us. Paul shot our engagement session out at Goat Rock Beach in Jenner – those photos turned out beautifully. He then shot our 10/13/12 outdoor wedding in Sonoma. He fully utilized the venue property to capture the most beautiful, creative shots. He didn’t force us into purchasing a photo book or package of prints – just the digital files on a CD with the files hosted on a Pictage website. He also put together a slide show reel of some of our best shots with some of our favorite music playing – it brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it! Paul showed up bright and early on our wedding day in order to capture shots of us getting ready, and he stayed through the end of the last dance at the reception. His professionalism is remarkable, but even more notable is his kind, gentle nature and how he captures moments naturally.

    We can't imagine being more thrilled with a photographer than we were with Paul Miller. He was an absolute pleasure to work with--totally on top of all of our requests, full of helpful advice when we needed it, and completely attentive for the entire day of our wedding. He's a really nice guy. Most importantly, our photos are spectacular. Highly, highly recommended!

    My husband and I got married in Sebastopol, CA in July of 2012. The owner of our wedding venue recommended a few photographers, one of them being Paul Miller. After reviewing websites with the photographers' work, my husband and I knew that we wanted Paul. We met with Paul a few months before the wedding and he could not have been any nicer. He was incredibly responsive to all of our emails. Once the wedding day arrived, he did a great job making sure we got all the shots we wanted and was incredibly professional. He is also incredibly nice and personable which helped to relax me on the wedding day. Paul made sure to sneak us away during the sunset to ensure we got the perfect pictures. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone! The pictures turned out wonderfully and his pricing is very reasonable!

    We hired Paul to photograph our wedding last year. Not only is he a talented photographer, he is also very professional and personable. I had seen examples of Paul's work prior to meeting him, and immediately appreciated his ability to capture a person. When my husband and I met with Paul, we instantly felt very comfortable around him and knew that he was someone we would enjoy spending our entire wedding day with. We both hate having our picture taken, so Paul gave us "practice runs" to become a little more comfortable with him and being in front of the camera. On our actual wedding day we had so much fun with Paul, we laughed and smiled the whole time. I can honestly say that Paul exceeded all of our expectations as a photographer and the pictures turned out so beautiful!

    Paul was amazing before, during and after our wedding! His photojournalistic style is what made us love his work! He was super accommodating to whatever crazy request we had and made a wonderful album at the end for us. He even made a beautiful slideshow online that we could share with family and friends. We highly recommend Paul!

    Paul was the perfect wedding photographer: he made sure that we got all the shots we wanted, without interfering with us enjoying our wedding and reception. The quality of the photos was superb, and he really who we are on film.

    Paul provided EXACTLY what we were hoping for in a wedding photographer. His pricing was reasonable and we had the freedom to choose only the prints we wanted afterward instead of being locked into buying certain albums or enlargements. Paul caught some lovely candid moments as well as nicely framing the portraits we wanted of our family and friends. We can't say enough great things about our experience with Paul - we will hire him again the next time we have an event!

    Paul is amazing! We actually just received the prints in the mail today and we couldn't be happier. He is very professional and SO fun to work with. We felt like he was a part of the family and we had so many laughs on our wedding day while he was shooting. It was truly special day and we couldn't have wished for a better photographer and new friend to work with. Thank you Paul!
