Biography
Paul Daly is a
photojournalist who started in newspapers from the ground up. His first job
was with The Sunday Tribune in Dublin, Ireland as a copyboy. (Copyboys
are now obsolete!) He had a great interest in photography and was quickly
taken on as an apprentice photographer with the senior photographers.
Soon after he became the youngest working press photographer in Ireland and
his work was receiving accolades. Paul moved from The Sunday Tribune
to work for Photocall Ireland; a news agency set up by his former picture
editor, and friend. Working on stories abroad gave Paul the travel bug and
he decided to accept a position with Image Photographic Services and see the
world from the deck of a luxury cruise liner! In this capacity Paul traveled
to all five continents where he delighted in photographing the people and
documenting their culture.
A cruiseship does have the reputation of being a Loveboat and Paul fell in
love on a slow boat to China. He is now married with two boys living in St.
John's, Newfoundland.
Along with The Sunday Tribune, Paul's work has been published in
newspapers and magazines in Europe and North America including The Irish
Times, The Times of London, The Sunday Times, The
Financial Times, The London Independent, The Guardian,
The Observer, The New York Times, The Globe and Mail,
Hello Magazine, Image Magazine, and MacLean's.
His images have also been published in books and used as CD covers.
Paul is currently the Photo Editor at Newfoundland and Labrador's newest provincial
paper, The Independent, based in St. John's.
