About Patrick
I'm a retired Management Consultant. I've taught classes on many topics for universities, state of CA, and many corporate clients. In 2013 I decided to hang out my shingle as a Professional photographer after 40 years as a hobby and studying photography with some of the photography greats like Ansel Adams. I can help you with any aspect of photography from how to best use your equipment to how to edit photos using Adobe Software like Photoshop, Lightroom, or Luminar 4 (base software is free). You can see a small portion of my work at pgarrett.com
It was part of my job and something I enjoyed.
I've studied photography for over 40 years with some of the greats. I've taught photography classes for the Calabasas Sr. Center. During my career as a management consultant I've taugh clases on many topics and understand to communitcate very technicl issues in a non-technical terms.

First and foremost is talking with the student to understand what they want to learn about. There are so many aspects to photography it is important to understand where we should start
All levels of photography skills and ages.
Have clear goals of what you'd like to improve. Have examples of your best work and what you'd like to do better.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Photography can be taught to anyone with an interest. Expensive equipment is not required because photograph priciples apply to any camera whether it's a cellphone, to an entry camera, or even high end equipment you'd just like to learn how to use it better. Just like in cooking it's not the pan that makes great food, it's the knowledge of how to use it and the ingredients.

Photography with Pat is a humbling reality.
The first time I met Pat, we immediately engaged upon discovering both of our passions for photography. Pat brought my photography to new levels, both creatively and technically. I will say the later is what set's Pat apart from other industry professionals. I have personally accompanied Pat on numerous photo expeditions and Photoshop World conferences and have never met another photographer dedicated to the craft as Pat.
Pat will not only show you how to use your camera but also the reasons why different settings should be applied. Studio lighting, off-camera strobes, and the technical parameters are all part of Pat's program. His constant dedication to industry trends, which cameras are better suited for the kind of work you are performing, and what you can do better never leave Pat without value on your journey.
Since studying under Pat, I have received the following accolades:
*2014 Rodeo Photographer of the Year
*Cowboy's and Indian's Annual Photo Contest Runner-Up
*Cover's of Spin-to-Win Magazine, ProRodeo News, Real American Cowboy Magazine, Western Horseman, Cowboys, and Indians.
*Increased social media followers by 2000+

Pat is a great mentor, and I would not be surprised to see him instructing right alongside Scott Kelby or Joe McNally in the near future.
Patrick Garrett is very knowledgeable, and he is excellent at explaining and teaching. His extensive professional photography experience, pedagogical skill and care that you learn, makes him the ideal photo teacher, and the only one you'll ever need.
