Hendrik is an absolute pro. We initially contracted him to do headshots for a project in 2020 and we loved his work so much we've used him many times since! He's extremely professional and responsive, is very accommodating to our last minute requests, and is equally comfortable taking the lead or receiving direction on set. We're very happy we have him as a partner and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for awesome photography and a professional experience.

Hendrik Paul is the consummate professional. I knew him to be honest, trustworthy, and a man of his word. I engaged him to photograph textiles for a book project. He accomplished the shoot going over and above what he needed to do to make it successful. The results were amazing; the publisher was extremely pleased, too. It was an absolute pleasure to work with someone with such integrity. I highly recommend Hendrik.

“I love how the images turned out for my new website! To be honest, I am not very comfortable in front of the camera. Hendrik is patient, gentle and kind which helped me feel more relaxed and natural during the session. I highly recommend Hendrik because he is easy to work with, has grounding energy and and helped make me look and feel my best.”

“When my Northern California clients need a photographer, I send them to Poetic Light. I know the work will be high-end and my clients will love working with Hendrik. The thought Hendrik puts into his photography can bring a brand to life and dramatically improve marketing results.”

Hendrik Paul perfectly captured the moment and memorialized a special relationship between human and canine. Bolt, the Dalmatian, was young then and eager, devoted, willing. Hendrik spent hours with us, taking dozens of photos at multiple locations. Thank goodness I trusted his advice and followed his suggestions. The result captured a moment in time and illustrates a bond I will always treasure.
