Wonderful experience!

We hired Patrick as the photographer for our wedding in York, ME, and it was a great experience - he's very friendly, responsive, timely, and professional. We live in Colorado so it was important that our vendors be easy to work with and communicative, and Patrick nailed it. He cares about his craft and the quality of his photos reflects that. He also made sure to work through a list of people and locations with us in advance to make sure we got all the photos we wanted - which was especially helpful day-of when everything is flying by and you're getting pulled in all sorts of directions. We can't recommend Patrick enough and are so glad we went with him!

The Best Photographer We Could Have Asked For!

Patrick is a professional, kind, and incredibly engaging photographer. We felt comfortable with him from our initial phone call, and were so thrilled he was available to capture our wedding day. He was a calming presence throughout our wedding and provided all the necessary guidance and cues to ensure we received the shots we wanted. He is a great listener and was flexible with our wants and needs. We were able to make all the shots we wanted to happen. and my husband and I are absolutely thrilled with how our photos turned out! We are so happy to had have Patrick as our photographer and would recommend him to other couples.
