Thank you for visiting my website! My name is Paul Haynes, I am a native of Indiana and a passionate photographer. My love for photography started with my love for the outdoors. I am an Eagle Scout and I have been active in scouting for nearly twenty years, allowing me to log lots of quality outdoor time. I am currently the Scout Master of the troop where I earned my Eagle Award. Even outside of scouting, I have always been fascinated with animals, conservation, National parks, and just the great outdoors in general.

     I began actively focusing on my photography back in 2013, when I invested in an entry level DSLR. I fell in love with the camera and the way it helped me expand and grow my photography skills. For over a year most of my time was spent working on and remodeling a foreclosed home I had purchased, but whenever I had a spare moment I would sneak off to fill up SD cards. I told myself that once the literal dust settled on the house I would invest in photography classes, more gear and a better camera.

     When I was nearing the end of my remodeling project I did just that. Since finishing my remodeling, I have poured all my energy into my photography, and now I am absolutely hooked. I've started my own business, doing all sorts of shoots. I go on weekly hiking trips and edit practically every night. I also go on monthly camping trips throughout the Midwest and several week-long road trips all over North America, every year; just in the pursuit of photography. Every time I leave the house, a camera goes too.

      I hope you enjoy my work. You can follow me and my photography adventures on Instagram. I am available for commercial shoots, weddings, events, commission work and prints are available upon request.
