Hey! Thanks for stopping by!  *hi-fives all around* 

My name is Patrick.  My wife and I have been married for six years.  We
love car camping all over the Cascades and the Olympics, as well as more
serious international adventures. Ask me about the trip where we hiked through
the Slovenian, Austrian, German, back into the Austrian, and then the Italian
Alps.  Or, the time I played bumper cars on a hairpin corner with a man in
the Albanian mafia and got chased across the border into Macedonia!  Anne still hasn't
forgiven me for that one.

That said, you should probably know that I like to have fun, I work hard and
I'm willing to take risks.  I believe that being a wedding photographer is
not for the faint of heart.  During my days as a freelance travel photographer/writer,
I learned that the best images don't just happen because you've bought a plane
ticket.  In over 30 countries, I found that the most compelling images
come from getting inside the life of a person or falling in love with a place.  My most cherished picture
of you is likely to come after we've had a beer, and your cousin has shared a
funny story about when you were little.

Thank you for looking, and don't be afraid to leave a comment.

La Dolce Vita – Italy, July 2010

*Lots of people have asked me if they could buy pictures.  Pictures are now for sale here.*

Piazzas, gelato, pasta, heat, churches, wine, and soccer.  Anne and I experienced large quantities of those things and much more as we traveled around Italy’s mid-section.  On a side note: it was hot.  Too hot.  For instance, one day it was almost 110 degrees!  When we left Seattle, it had not yet reached 75 degrees in well over 7 months!

Michele + Bo Married! / Orcas Island – Victorian Valley Chapel & Inn at Ship Bay

Michelle and Bo are Double Rainbow… just sayin’.  They are always going to have a special place in my heart.  Editing their wedding pictures brought back so many amazing memories and emotions.  I’m so thankful that they invited me to their wedding.

Jamie + Tim Engaged!

What’s cooler than being cool?  Jamie and Tim on a very chilly Sunday evening!  If you were thinking “ice cold,” sorry, that is not the correct answer.

Lighting, in case anyone wondered.

Have you ever heard that you can see your future in a glass of water?

Tatoosh Mountains/Mt. Rainier Hiking

There is a popular reflection pond in the Tatoosh mountains that photographers have been visiting for years.  Personally, I’ve hiked to it many times, but have only been able to shoot pictures twice.  Once, it was still covered in snow (in late July), another time, the clouds were so thick I couldn’t see anything but gray.  This year, was a good year.  BTW, one of my pictures from the Olymplic National Park is published in this months issue of Backpacker Magazine.

Brian, an awesome photographer for Photo Elan also came.  He blogged about it here.

Amanda Richelle - LOVE! Truly great outdoor photography evokes emotional response, and I'm feelin' it!February 22, 2010 - 1:00 am

Julia Carnevali - These are unbelievable! Your talent for colour and composition are truly fabulous - if you ever get tired of happy couples, you have a beautiful future in nature photography. Wowsa!April 26, 2010 - 7:29 pm

Erin + Adam Engaged!

These images were taken by Patrick Love, about 3 miles from the Google campus in Kirkland, WA.  One day later, Google released the Parisian Love Commercial during the Super Bowl.  Coincidence?  I think not.

Last name, Ever.  First name, Greatest!

Katey + Steve Married!

Beautiful, awesome and cold!  Katey and Steve had such a fun winter wedding.

My last 2009 wedding!
