“Wild at heart, lens in hand.”
Hi, I'm Patricia.
I grew up along the Hudson River in New Jersey, always looking toward the horizon and wondering what lay beyond it. By the time I was five years old I had decided I wanted to become an oceanographer because I was fascinated by whales and the sea. That childhood dream eventually became something different—but never disappeared.
Today I travel the world photographing the places and wildlife that have inspired me since childhood. From swimming alongside humpback whales in Tonga and Maui to standing in the silent halls of Egypt's ancient temples, every journey begins with curiosity rather than a checklist.
My career as a Doctor of Nursing Practice has taught me to notice details, remain patient, and appreciate moments that many people overlook. Photography became the perfect extension of that mindset.
I don't simply photograph destinations—I wait for the right light, the right tide, the right season, or sometimes the right whale to appear. Some images take years of planning and many unsuccessful attempts before everything finally comes together.
My hope is that these photographs do more than decorate a wall. I want them to transport you—to the sound of whale song beneath the Pacific, the quiet of a deserted temple at sunrise, or the feeling of standing beneath a sky filled with the Milky Way.
Thank you for joining me on the journey.
