About
Style is everything and I believe in the style of art I create for others. It has focus and creativity stemming from a truly knowledgeable photographer that is much different than that of most 'photographers' today. I love to create and I love to see people overjoyed at what they get from me.

Had some product shots done for an upcoming product we are releasing online. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer! He gave me some ideas of what would look good and captured everything perfectly. Will definitely be using again in the future!

We were very late with booking a photographer for our son's high school graduation photo session. I was so impressed with Paul's ability to squeeze us into his schedule and accommodate our family. His 20+ years of experience is clearly evident. I was extremely nervous, as this is our first child going through the experience. Paul made us very comfortable and at ease by providing helpful tips to prepare for the photo shoot. He discussed in depth wardrobing, tips for hair cuts, shaving etc. He was on time to shoot the session and very relaxed. His sense of humor is fantastic, making the photo shoot fun and engaging for a teenage boy. He also was a pro at including our youngest and two family dogs in the photo session. Paul knows the Des Moines area well and offers a great selection of areas to shoot the session. I highly recommend Paul if you are looking for an experienced, and very reasonably priced professional photographer. He definitely makes the session fun! Thank You Paul for the excellent photo session. We will definitely be returning for more photo sessions in the future! The Creger Family

I am extremely satisfied with DV8. I was able to get an appointment quickly. Paul was extremely professional. We met in the studio. Did most of the shots there and a few outside just across the street from the studio. Paul's relaxed nature and sense of humor made me very comfortable and made smiling natural and easy. I feel he captured my "personality" with my headshot. I also found the pricing to be favorable and competitive. I would defiantly use DV8 in the future!

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    My pricing is pretty straight forward with packages but find that many would like to customize a package. We are happy to help.

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I have continued to learn as there is always something new. I also teach beginning photography classes and have taught professionals as well.
