From Painter to Photographer. From Image-Maker to Storyteller.

I’m Paula — an internationally acclaimed photographer, visual storyteller, and intuitive artist.

Through my lens, your story becomes more than an image — it becomes a memory you can feel.

Born in South Africa, my creative path began with paint and sketchbooks, studying light, form, and emotion.

What started as a love for portraiture evolved into something deeper: a way of capturing not just how people look, but who they are — and who they are becoming.

After the births of my two children, my perspective shifted.

Photography wasn’t just a tool anymore — it became the art itself.

Today, I bring my fine art background and intuitive approach together to create transformational portraits for individuals and brands who are ready to be seen clearly — and remembered fully.

When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me with my children, working on nonprofit projects in Uganda, lost in a good book, or enjoying a well-earned gin and tonic — always chasing the light, wherever it leads.

If you're ready for images that feel as true as they look, I’d love to work with you.
