Patrick

Patrick has been behind a camera for over 40 years. He started out in photo labs and has worked with every kind of development (C-41, E-6 and manual black and white), so he knows how an image is made from exposure to print. Since then he has won a photo competition, shown work in several exhibitions alongside other photographers, and shot album covers for Magnus Lundkvist. One of his photographs appears in a book on folklore and Halloween, which suits a seat on the Shockholm jury. On Instagram, as @Makita, he photographs Stockholm with an observant, street-level eye. As a judge he looks for photos with a point of view, a clear idea, and something you want to look at twice.

Everything starts with a dream ✨ An idea, a feeling, a thought of what could one day become real. Shockholm started as a dream too. And sometimes dreams grow into something bigger than you ever imagined. This is the beginning of a little story about daring to dream. To be continued 🖤
