Paul is such a talented and amazing photographer. He shot our wedding this last August and did such a wonderful job. He captured so much in his photos: joy, excitement, laughter, and love. He worked SO hard the entire time and even came early. His presence was calming and he made the photo portion of the event fun. Since the wedding we've spoken with many of our guests and somehow his name comes up most every time. Everyone noticed how he worked the room and took so many pictures! He was not in the way at all, or a distraction from the ceremony and reception. Not only was Paul great on the actual day, but he was so helpful in the planning process. He met with us twice and was so patient as we worked through the plans, he even had great recommendations, all of which we used! Days after the wedding he had sent us a few amazing pictures, just to give us a taste! The within a month we received all of the photos!I would recommend Paul for any event you need a photographer for. We love our pictures so much and can't imagine ever getting tired of looking through them all. He is such a gifted photographer and you'll be so happy that he was there to capture you and your family!

Paul went above and beyond what we expected from a photographer. He was incredibly organized and was able to get all the family pictures we had on our list in a timely manner. Prior to the wedding, Paul was quick to respond to any questions we had and when asked for recommendations of music or decor, he provided some great recommendations. Throughout the wedding, Paul was everywhere but never getting in anyone's way as he captured the events of our special day. All the pictures we received were more than what we expected and we were so excited to show them off to family and friends. We would definitely recommend Paul to anyone who is looking for a photographer that really listens to their needs.

Paul Rich was amazing right from the very first meeting. As soon as I finished with the initial meeting with him I knew that he was the one I wanted for my photographer. He offers great package options that included meeting with him out at the venue to go over photo lists and options for different places to shoot photos. The day of my wedding it was pouring down rain, in July, and he got there early to scout out new options for the photos if the rain didn't stop. He came in with a big smile on his face helping make a stressful morning a little bit better The photos turned out absolutely amazing and we got to see some of them soon after the wedding. Since we have received our photos I have shown so many people and they comment how amazing they are and how he was able to capture all the laughter and happiness of the day. Choosing him as my photographer for the day was one of the best choices that I made for my wedding!

Paul's was absolutely perfect as our photographer! Our photos look like they are straight out of a magazine. He was creative and quick. He got through our formals with amazing speed, and yet the quality was amazing. He made everyone feel comfortable and made it all a fun experience. He is truly an artist and we are so happy to have his photographs as our reminders. His turn around time was quick (and he posted a few photos to his blog within days, which was awesome!), and the DVD and prints we received were so tastefully packaged. His services are not cheap, but he is the real deal. You totally get what you pay for.

I have worked with a log of photographers in the Portland area and there is no other photographer that even compares with the quality of Paul Rich Studio. From start to finish, Paul and his team have a way of making everything make sense and everyone feel at ease. He goes above and beyond to get to know the couple and to even memorize the names and relationships of the entire wedding party. He knows his business well and makes great suggestions and tips to make sure that the photos are done well and don't take away from the day. We have decided that Paul Rich Studio is the only photographer for us and we highly recommend him to not only future brides and grooms, but to families that want photos or other special occassions.

Paul was amazing - he put everyone at ease, was willing to work around a giant snow storm and produced stunning photographs. His turn around time was amazingly fast. He was friendly and professional and blended right in during the wedding day.

If you're trying to save your budget in photography, Paul is not your guy. If you want awesome photos for a lifetime and an enjoyable experience with a photographer on the day of your wedding - to the point you forget he/she's even there - Paul Rich Sudios is your photographer!I was looking to stay in budget when we started hunting for a photographer. There are a zillion of them out there and interview many! We started to realize we really wanted a great experience with great results over what we would pay. These photos are ours for life! No redu's!When we first met Paul he was laid back, this is who I am, here's a representation of my work, oh and if you go to my website there is a video of me working so you can see how I act while working. Not a ton of options for packages - but the right amount with a little flexibility. No major sales pitch. It was so nice - we decided immediately Paul was for us.My husband and I don't pose well, trying to get the 'natural look'. Paul made us feel like Super Models! He had us laughing and playing during both our engagement shoot and on wedding day. Amazing!After both shooting sessions he's been quick on getting us our photos back. He started our engagement book for us, let us see all the photos (on line) and swap out as we wanted. Now it's been less than 30 days since the wedding - and we already are selecting our wedding photos for our album - and it's mid-high wedding season (and he's booked solid!).Paul Rich has amazing talent, and in my opinion - he's priceless!




I cannot say enough nice things about Paul and his associates. We had met Paul when I was serving as a bridesmaid in another friend's wedding, and his work spoke for itself--he got terrific shots, was totally unobtrusive, was very friendly, professional, and made the formals fun.
While his wife was unable to shoot our wedding, his associate and assistant were lovely, friendly, helpful, and also very unobtrusive. Additionally, Paul managed to take all of our formal photos before the wedding so we could actually enjoy the cocktail hour and reception. He even got those done early, and then worked with the venue to make sure I didn't have to run outside through the rain before my ceremony.
All of the photographs have been wonderful, and Paul's level of service is fantastic. We have received everything we were promised in a very reasonable timeframe. I would recommend Paul and Holly without reservation for anyone who wants truly memorable wedding photos done right.




Paul was so great to work with. He understood our budget and was able to work within those guidelines. He is easy going and makes being photographed a fun thing. It never felt awkward or uncomfortable. He’s posing you for portraits and also catching great candid shots. I never had to worry about where he was and if he was getting the beautiful photographs I wanted. We were unable to afford to bring his wife along as the second photographer, but he brought along an associate. She was also lovely to work with. They all have a great eye for finding the most gorgeous and flattering images and I would be happy to work with them again.
We've had the honor of working with Paul Rich Studios on many occasions for wedding photography, but also for portrait and product shoots! Paul is quick to respond, dependable and among the best photographers in the Oregon market! We highly recommend Paul Rich Studio!

Paul Rich has an ease about him that brings out the best in people. His attention to detail and understanding that he is capturing the moment you can never get back create beautiful memories. Paul is involved in what each couple wants and ensures he works with other vendors to never miss a moment of what's happening. Great team. Great pictures. Great photographer.
Lan Su loves Paul Rich! He always has a smile, moves through the Garden with ease and courtesy, and creates beautiful images of the events here. We love working with him and look forward to seeing what new images he's captured.
