Paul,

As always I am astounded at how well you capture those of us who live through the child within us during faire. Where else can we play make believe. Your galleries allow me to relive each year between TRF seasons. Maybe you will someday do me the honor of including me in your photo. Well met and safe travels my friend!

Was great to see you at TRF, Paul. Amazing work as always. I look forward to Scarbbie!

Paul,

Your pictures are inspirational and bestow upon those that cannot see the beauty of the people at faire an image of that beauty that can stay with them forever. You caught my daughter this past weekend and I just love the image you captured of her. ( GX9W2263.jpg ) Thank you for your time and the sharing of the images of faire I cannot see as I am at my booth all the time.

Paul... can you please get a picture of my friend Dan? He is a Puppeteer! at the magnolia renn fair PLEASE it would mean so much to me!!!!!!!!!

My mother loves the pictures, Paul. They made her cry.

I know that over time, repetition dulls perception. So, I hope that you can still feel the weight when I say these words:

Thank you for the pictures.

Thank you for your time and talent.

Your images impact much more than the people in the images.

Your images impact our families, our relationships with our coworkers, and our community.

It’s important, Paul.

Your work, however little you may think of it, is important to us all.

Some rennie muse has gifted you with the skill of sharing with the outside world the contents of our innermost thoughts.

Each Photography on The Run exhibit is actually a group photo taken of a very large family. Our family is so big that lots of pictures must be taken to cover our entire number.

Thank you for your work.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Please remember always,

Even when you can’t feel the weight of the words anymore,

The things that you do are deeply appreciated.

-- Kate Leonard

You brought me pictures of Twig and several other friends that I made while out at Faire. I had the best 18th birthday ever because of my friends, and because of you I have a way to remember them all vividly. Thank you for an amazing birthday.

I work at Renaissance Faires in the summer. They are a lot of fun. I love your pictures.
John 18-Apr-2006 00:29
I adore your photos. Every single person depicted on here looks very beautiful in their own way. My only request is to see more shots of people in their full outfit. The portraits are very beautiful, but I'm primarily interested in checking out people's costumes and I've love to see more of them in full including the waist down.
Valeria Cantu 09-Jan-2006 02:54
I went to the festival before and it was fun. The prices are fair well, that's what I think. Well anyway I had a great time there and I hope to go there sometime this year.
I whent inside the castle for like 5 seconds me and my friends got scared and got out without asking for a refund. Well that's all I have to say know good-bye.
P.S.ROSES GET YOUR ROSES. HA HA HA HA HA HA. Well okay know really good-bye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Truely, your skill is astounding! After visiting this sight for possibly the millionth time and agonizing over how long it will be until the fall, I wondered: why is it you've never captured (atleast in my reckoning) the noon parade at trf? I bet you could make the shots really come to life.
john stout 08-Jun-2005 18:31
first of all i love your work. and not just because i'm in a shot or two. i was looking through byour galleries and saw the shots you captured at "fairie world" i've never herd of it. would you be kind enough to send me a web link or some way to get there info?
thanks again

Jill 13-May-2005 15:37
Awwww, I loved the fairy pics. You really caught the essence of what the Ren faires are all about. Good job!
Brittney Boswell 12-May-2005 12:47
Thank you again for all the work you do to make us look so good. It is always a pleasure to see the two of you out and about at site.

Many Thanks

Rae 04-May-2005 14:37
As always such wonderful pictures. You always capture the best faces of faire.
Michelle 25-Mar-2005 11:07
So many beautiful photos! I have always wanted to go to a faire but have never had the chance. Your lovely pictures have shown me what i've been missing. I am now determined to attend a faire someday before i die.

As an artist i have to ask if you would allow any of these photos to be used as reference images for some artwork. I did not see any way from the site to contact you, but if you could email me i would much appriciate it! :i)

Again, my compliments on such a wonderful collection of photos!
duzypatz 26-Jan-2005 02:37

I try to thank you every time I see you. I love your pictures so much that I even used one of your pictures of me on my website. Hope you can come to Excalibur this year. THere a link to it on our website email me for more info. http://www.forestarmory.com Thank you so much-You are a gift!
