Collaboration & Testimonials
Here are a few testimonials from respected individuals I’ve had the privilege of working with.
“I worked with Paul Westlake during my time as Fashion Director at Harper’s Bazaar. Paul is a true professional—not only a creative and talented photographer but genuinely fun to work with. He looks beyond the obvious and creates powerful visual stories, often with unusual and compelling results in both print and film. I can highly recommend working with him.”

“Paul Westlake is one of the world’s most renowned fashion and beauty photographers. His contemporary vision is elegant and strong—his images, magical. I had the good fortune of working with Paul while I was Style Director at Self magazine. Our most memorable collaboration was a shoot in the South of France, capturing fashion and beauty on the grounds of an ancient château. Working with Paul was a joy—the photographs are stunning.”

Fashion Director, Marie Claire, Elle, Glamour, Self. New York“Paul is that rare combination of art and commerce. I've worked with him on many editorial and commercial shoots, and every time, he creates images that are not only beautiful but satisfy both my editors and clients. He brings a deep understanding of photography’s history, which I believe is essential to making work that resonates today. In a profession crowded with poseurs, Paul is the real deal—never boring, never stale—always of the moment, yet timeless.”
