Hi Friends,
The biggest development for me in the past few months is that I have been making real steps towards making money from professional photography.
To begin, I had my first paid photography gig! I shot some production photos of Studio Conservatory Directing Student Doug Robinson’s scene from Psychosis 4:49.

Next, I invested in a really good camera, which I have been having a lot of fun with.
Then I went to Street Meet DC, where I was able to work with models and meet other photographers in the DC area who have more experience than I do.

Then I downloaded Lightroom and Photoshop and started teaching myself how to edit photos, which has always been fun for me, but now I feel like I am really getting good at it.

All of this has been made possible because of my friends and family who have donated to my GoFundMe Campaign which is 140% funded! (and is still running if you want to donate too!) To celebrate this miolestone, I am offering free headshots for the rest of April and May!
So now the newest section of this website is the Headshots and Modeling section, which I hope to expand over the next few months through going to more public photography events and working individually with models.
Cheers,
Patrick
