photographs by paul barbera

hello ladies, how are you doing? i hope you had a fabulous weekend! i sure did! so many new experiences for mr. kobe… and for us! we took him to the beach and he loved it! well, but today is monday, so we have a lot to talk about today… and i am a bit late, i know! first things first, the photographer. today i would love to share a new-to-me (shame on me, though) photographer. i was reading {the blue hour} when brian mentioned this {photographer}, which i have also loved… and this lead me to {this} project and from this i got to discover the man behind it… paul barbera.

“paul barbera was born in melbourne, australia. he completed a bachelor of fine arts at the victorian college of the arts in 1994. paul works between melbourne, amsterdam and new york, also lived in various locales that include berlin, prague, singapore and rome.”

“during this time, paul established himself as an interiors and lifestyle photographer, working with publications like view on color, bloom, elle decor, freudin, grazia, vogue living and jalouse. paul has also worked extensively on advertising productions either working closely with his agents or putting together his own creative team for clients like moorilla, david jones, coke, ikea, and wolfblass. his work has taken him to places like india, new york, argentina, turkey, brazil, germany, italy and bali to name a few.”

“working on advertising and editorial work while also expanding into new projects that include books and exhibitions. paul’s recent solo show, happy together, was a personal exploration on loss.”

i was thrilled when paul aswered me back when i asked permission to feature some of his work. he is so talented and he has such a rich life experience that was for me a real honor to have him here. he is one of those men that travels so much around the world… and this, for a photographer is a very interesting experience, because the world is so rich… and getting to know so many different people must be quite an honor for him, as well. so in the middle of this, getting the time to answer my email was the thrilling part for me! so… happy monday for me! i hope you have enjoyed these {still life} and {interior} from paul barbera. you can explore more of his work {here}. delight yourself!
