I’m Patrick, portrait plus photographer
What is Portrait "Plus"?
I primarily shoot portraits, whether it Family, Senior, Martial Arts, but I've also had some great opportunities over the years to get to develop my skills in a number of other photography niches.
The "Plus" could include al sorts of things like fashion, cars, pets, real estate, etc. I enjoy getting to explore and try new things, so no idea is too crazy. Click the button below to check out my portfolios.

This is my first photoshoot, what should I know?
Try not to stress or feel too rushed. It's easy to get lost in the details because you want everything to be perfect, but most of the time, the best photos are the ones you didn't plan for.
What should I wear?
That's completely up to you! Depending on the type of shoot we are doing, you may even get to change into multiple outfits!
How many pictures will I receive?
That number can vary quite a bit based on what type of photo shoot you select. I don't put a cap on how many I will edit and deliver, but on average, most single family or senior photo shoots I do end up receiving around 30 fully edited photos.
What if the weather is bad on the day of our session?
If possible, we will reschedule, but I've done many photo shoots over the years were the weather is bad all day, but we wait it out and end up with spectacular skies and beautiful sunsets.
Do you do indoor studio portraits?
Absolutely. I don't have a permanent studio location, but I have access to a space and all of the equipment.
What if my kids won't cooperate?
I feel you, but don't stress. If we are patient enough, even the most difficult toddlers will look at the camera and smile. I have two kids of my own, and I've had to edit together multiple pictures into one more times than I'd like to admit because my kids could never seem to all smile and look at the camera at the same time.
