Paul van den Boom

Paul, a travaillé avec moi pour Sovimage comme Directeur Photo sur le documentaire ‘O' Une histoire de famille’. Il se distingue par son travail exceptionnel et sa personnalité. Il a un talent incroyable pour capturer les meilleurs moments et transformer chaque scène en quelque chose de spécial. Il crée une ambiance de travail harmonieuse et motivante. Son dévouement et son talent font de lui un atout inestimable pour notre équipe, contribuant significativement à la qualité et au succès de nos productions.

Paul has been our go-to Director of Photography for several years, consistently delivering exceptional results. His attention to detail and excellent communication skills makes him a joy to work with, especially when hiring and overseeing a local crew and organizing shoots independently in Québec. Paul's ability to manage everything seamlessly while capturing stunning photography is an invaluable asset to our team.

Paul has worked on several of our 'Truly' shoots and he is brilliant to work with. As we are a UK company, we work with Paul on a remote basis. He therefore has to follow a detailed brief, capturing all content we've asked for. Paul’s communication skills are exceptional, pre- and post-shoot. Paul is professional and polite at all times, he is extremely talented and a pleasure to work with!

Paul has worked for our creative agency on many projects. He is always using the latest technologies, while applying his wealth of knowledge and experience to produce top shelf images. We look forward to working with him again and would easily recommend him to our colleague producers.

My company hired Paul for different projects. The process was delightful from start to finish. In the first project, Paul worked independently to direct/shoot an important client interview in French. He was professional and responsive in all our communications. The shoot went perfectly, and we received the footage within 24 hours. The next project I was directing. It was a challenging shoot outside at night in a snowstorm. Paul came through again with fantastic footage, while keeping a positive attitude. I highly recommend Paul for any production.

Paul has become a trusted production partner when I have shoots in Montreal and vicinity. Being based out of Vancouver and working remotely out east, he expertly handles the logistics of the shoot, makes every shoot look fantastic and a success. Paul is a true professional.

We hired Paul to crew-up and shoot an interview for the documentary 1966: Who Stole the World Cup?, which we produced for Channel 4 (UK).  As the interview took place in Canada and we are based in the UK, he also acted as a producer for the shoot which was super helpful for us. Paul was incredibly professional and reliable. The interview went smoothly and we were very pleased with the results. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Paul again should we need some production support or Director of Photography in North America again.

Paul is very professional and efficient and great to work with.
