“I shoot photos to accompany stories and as stories in themselves.”
Consider me an avid professional amateur, having shot events as amazing as The Albuquerque Hot Air Balloon Festival, the Voyager and Discovery landings at Edwards Air Force Base, the only remaining flying B-24 Liberator on the ground and in the air, historic car shows/races, Olympic athletes in training and competition, cancer walks, beauty contests and awards banquets.
While traveling I’ve shot waterfalls and gardens in Jamaica, the majesty of Yosemite, the magic of Paris and extraordinary ordinary people going about their lives. There’s nothing like being personal.
Many of my photos have appeared in books, newspapers and magazines and at a few photography shows. Contact me to see more, or for purchase or publishing use. Check out fun shots on Flickr (debbiswansonpatrick). And you may catch me hiking around the country with California Photography Workshops and Tours (californiaphotoworkshops.com).
Enjoy.
