Today (and everyday!) we love the amazing photographer Leo Patrone. My team and I have had the chance to get to know him and work with him and I have to say that he is one of the sweetest people in the industry! No ego, just pure talent. You can really tell that he loves what he does, it comes across in his gorgeous work. Here’s the story behind the artist:
I was born in Argentina and moved to the US when I was 14. I had always been interested in art and music, but after I shot a Canon AE1 for the first time, I fell in love with photography. My approach to photography is fine art, and I shoot exclusively with film, because I love its timeless look and feel. I have a unique process: I shoot every event myself, and I personally develop and scan all of my own film. Having control over the whole process ensures that my images have a consistent quality, color, look, and feel. I love shooting weddings worldwide; I’ve photographed events in Italy, Spain, Germany, Canada, Mexico, Singapore, Indonesia, Argentina and all over the US. When shooting weddings, my main goal is to make people feel comfortable in front of the camera, so they can be themselves and have photographs that make them happy and reflect their unique personalities.
May you be inspired,
Leila
