I'm a photographer and artist living just outside of Boston, Massachusetts, in the United States. I have a photography studio in the Beacon Hill area of Boston, where I shoot all kinds of studio work, specializing in headshots and artistic male nudes. I also shoot event photography in the Boston area.
I spend my weekends in the spring and summer volunteering my time to photograph the Beantown Softball League, a gay softball league in Boston. I maintain and archive all their photos on a separate Flickr account, here:

In my leisure time I enjoy walking the streets of Boston photographing anything that strikes my fancy or working at home on my photography and digital art in Photoshop. I've been a Flickr member since late 2004 and enjoy sharing a wide variety of my work there.
Any man I know would be absolutely thrilled to have Patrick's lens turned on him. Far from violent, his lens is a caress. The men on the other end in Patrick's classically lit portraits are gentle, and handsome, and open, and sexy, and very real. What Patrick does takes more than an understanding of light -- it takes an understanding of people, and a talent at interpersonal communication that most of us can only dream of having.
And his bad art? It's really not bad -- at least not that kind of bad.
