Paul Manser is a multidisciplinary commercial photographer and videographer with a keen eye for detail, working across still life, sports, and content-led imagery. He has collaborated with a wide range of brands, including L’Oréal, Sainsbury’s, Lock & Co, Tribourne, and others.

Originally intending to pursue graphic design, Paul discovered during his studies that photography better suited his creative strengths. He went on to study advertising and fashion photography at Cheltenham and Gloucester College, later assisting photographers in London and Brighton.

Paul began his career specialising in still life and product photography, eventually becoming second photographer at a Brighton studio, where he worked with established clients while building his own. More than 25 years ago, he transitioned into freelance practice.

With experience spanning film, medium format, and modern digital systems, Paul is highly adaptable and often captures stills and video simultaneously to meet the fast-paced demands of contemporary content creation. His personal work has also gained recognition, including being shortlisted for Landscape and Wildlife Photographer of the Year.

Outside of work, Paul is a family man and keen sportsman, enjoying padel, surfing, and wing foiling.
