ABOUT PAUL HARTMANN

A first-rate professional portrait captures people’s attention. It can help convince others in the business community that you are successful and trustworthy. It will make people want to do business with you.

Paul Hartmann, owner of Denver, Colorado-based Hartmannphoto, LLC, knows a thing or two about first-rate portraiture. He received his BFA in illustrative photography, and for more than 20 years he has taken outstanding executive portraits for use in advertisements, annual reports, and brochures, as well as on websites. He also specializes in product photography and in revealing the art in architectural interiors and exteriors. Paul will do anything for a great shot, and his talents are called upon throughout the United States. In fact, his work has won rave reviews, including five Annual Show Awards from the prestigious Art Directors Club of Metropolitan Washington, DC.

Senator Bob Dole, Governor Ann Richards, Senator George Mitchell, and rock and roll legend Ted Nugent are among Paul’s more famous clients. His favorite shots include his conceptual still-life images and his photograph of New York City’s Times Square, which was taken during the Y2K New Year’s ceremony (the photo was used in a two-page spread in a Marriott Annual Report). Paul’s favorite assignment was shooting the cover of Ted Nugent’s book God, Guns, & Rock ‘N’ Roll at a ranch in rural Virginia.

Though he’s obviously highly skilled behind the lens, Paul doesn’t rest on his laurels. Instead, he continually hones his craft, and his considerable expertise behind the camera has enabled him to make the subjects of his photos—both famous people and executive professionals alike—look simply terrific.

Why choose Paul as your photographer? Because nobody knows more about effective posing, composition, and lighting. Because, unlike no other photographer, he can help you relax so your personality will shine through a still-life image. Because, simply put, he’s the best in the business.
