Who Am I?
© Paul Walford
I am a photographer based in Cambridge, England. Photography has always been a passion of mine, particularly travel photography. Studying photography earlier in life was invaluable and taught me about the traditional processes involved with film based photography. I later moved on to digital photography and my interest has continued to grow over the years.
I have been fortunate enough to travel to some beautiful countries and I am always drawn back to South East Asia. Closer to home, living in Cambridge provides a vast array of photographic inspiration and you’ll often find me wandering the city streets with my camera in hand.
I currently use the Olympus OMD E-M5 Mk.II, the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO and the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 9-18mm f/4.0-5.6.
