About

As the saying goes, “Do what you love and you will never work another day of your life.” I am an award winning, Emmy nominated, San Diego Photographer/Filmmaker with over 600 weddings under my belt. I started out as a photographer; studied Film and TV at SDSU; and then founded my own production/content creation company in the 90’s. My passion is communicating authentic emotion with light, form, and composition. When time permits, I love going for very stylized looks with my collection of vintage lenses from Germany, Japan and Russia. My documentaries and short films have won film festivals all over the country and overseas, so apart from portraits, my style naturally leans toward “photojournalist,” but I can emulate any style. My goal is to do nothing less than take the best pictures of you that have ever been taken, or will ever be taken.

Beautiful and artistic photos!

We had such a great experience with Patrick! He takes very artistic photos like no other! I could not have been happier that we picked Patrick to capture moments that we can keep forever. Leading up to the day too, they were excellent communicators. I am so excited to see the final products!

Great Quality Pictures

Patrick is a great photographer! Our experience with Patrick was fantastic. He was very professional, and so was his equipment. We had a wonderful time in Balboa Park, and we are more than satisfied with the quality of pictures he produced. He let us do what we wanted to do. If we had an idea for a picture, then he helped us figure it out.

Top Quality Photos! Beautiful Moments Captured!

I typically do not like photos taken of me, but Patrick did a great job helping us feel comfortable and natural. The engagement photoshoot was a lot of fun. I really liked that our photos looked like beautiful moment captured rather than stiff staged pictures. I couldn't believe how great the photos came out. Top quality, and we look our best! It was such a great experience working with Patrick and his assistant. I am so happy we chose him to capture such an important time in our lives :-)
