Well hello there, and thanks for visiting my website!

I’m Patrick Shipstad, a professional photographer, retoucher and photo compositor based in Los Angeles. I love shooting creative portraits, beauty, fashion as well as products. My focus is to create photos that are unique while always appropriate for the project.

So that's a little background on me. More importantly, what is it that I can do for you? My job is to make you, your project or products look their best. My goal is to exceed your expectations and to keep the collaborative process creative and fun.

Let's discuss your photography needs. Shoot me an email here on the contact page to get the ball rolling. We'll talk about the scope of the project, iron out all the details, come up with a price quote and then just do it! I look forward to working with you!
