Join us for a talk with Paul Hoelen who is both the 2017 AIPP Tasmanian Professional Landscape Photographer of the Year and Commercial Photographer of the Year.
Originally born in New Zealand to a Dutch Sailor and an American Nun, Paul has managed to put his four passports to excellent use before eventually settling on the beautiful, wild island of Tasmania.
Self taught, travel hungry and with a healthy thirst to grow as an image-maker he thrives on the challenge and freshness of shooting a wide diversity of genres, ranging from fine art nudes, landscapes, and large-scale event photography through to fashion, travel, documentary and environmental portraiture – though he’s most renowned for his exquisite landscape imagery.
Paul is a Master of Photography in the AIPP (2 Gold Bars) and Fellow of the NZIPP, two times Overseas Photographer of the Year in NZ, three times Tasmanian Professional Photographer of the Year and six times Tasmanian Landscape Photographer of the Year and is the current Commercial Photographer of the Year in Tasmania. He judges regularly at a state, national and international level, runs photography workshops worldwide and writes for numerous magazines and publications. He is a member of the progressive landscape collaborative The Light Collective, an Ambassador for Asukabook and his fine art work is represented by One Fine Print in Australia and Source Photographica in Australia and the USA.
