“Every story holds the power to connect us, bridging divides and reminding us of our shared humanity—one moment, one image, one voice at a time.”

I’m Paul Choy—an internationally published documentary photographer, writer, and journalist since 1996. My work has appeared in publications across the globe, reflecting a lifelong passion for storytelling.

I’ve had the privilege of serving as a Brand Ambassador for Fujifilm and as a Goodwill Ambassador for the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the UN Migration Agency—using storytelling as a force for change. These roles have allowed me to combine creative expression with advocacy for meaningful global issues.

Storytelling lies at the heart of everything I do: capturing the unscripted moments of everyday life that reveal our shared humanity. This passion has taken me across six continents, documenting cultures, people, and places in search of personal stories too often left untold. Through words and images, I aim to inspire connection, foster understanding, and encourage reflection on the diverse world we all share.
