Life Through the Lens

I have found a new crush- photographer Paul Costello. Turns out he’s shot just about every image in my “absolute favorites” file and I had no idea. Photographers can take a space that looks ho-hum and transform it into something that sings. What they do is amazing, and I hope one of my “careers” in this life will be a photographer. I love the process, the lifestyle, the creativity and imagination. Paul’s work makes life look it’s best, and makes me wish I lived inside one of his pictures…


















Check out his fashion and lifestyle photos too- they are so charming!

    Love these photos and as some readers have mentioned, it’s nice now to be able to put a name to these pics. that I have been seeing…though I haven’t seen all of these! Hmm, I can’t decide which place I would want to live in – so many are beautiful! However, I think right now, I vote for that pool :)

    He IS such a talented photographer! I’ve noticed that he’s shot a lot of my favorite rooms from Domino and now that they have folded I get sad and nervous for all the amazing people that have worked for the magazine. But clearly Paul has such an amazing resume and portfolio that I’m sure he’ll be fine!

  20. Shelter says:

    AMAZING!!!!! is all I can say. So many of those images are my favorite’s too.
