Paul Stewart is a British photojournalist and writer who has worked around the world for over 25 years for agencies, national newspapers and magazines. He started his career while still at school in 1970 photographing the UK rock music scene for various record companies and supplying pictures to the seminal "underground" magazines that sprang up in London at that time. These included International Times, Frendz and OZ, perhaps the most infamous of them all. His work has been published in over 190 countries. Recently, he has freelanced for the all the UK daily and Sunday national newspapers plus the London Evening Standard. Worldwide clients include Newsweek and the Jerusalem Post.

Stewart was the founder of ISF (Images sans Frontiers) the world's first digital delivery agency and embracing new tecnology as the way forward for photographers, became an early adopter of digital imaging. Indeed, he was the first photographer to use a mobile phone to send pictures to a National paper when he beta tested the then brand new mobile data system for One2One (now T-Mobile). This has now become the standard for press photographers worldwide.

After many years freelancing for the Mirror Group and then for Express Newspapers where he was night picture editor of The Daily Star Sunday and from time to time the Daily Express, Stewart formed the agency Pictures On The Page [1].
