PAUL JOHN SABO

Born: August 27, 1968, in Trenton New Jersey

I have worked as a fine artist in photography for over 12 years. Much of my photographic history has been involved with people, whether it be a portrait or the influence of their opinion on my work. While pursuing the ideas for my personal imagery, I’ve worked as a teacher, a commercial photographer, and in the darkroom.
