About Patrick Hawkes
I started into the world of photography in 2016 when I bought my first DSLR. I had been interested in photography growing up, but never had the money to buy a decent camera. Yet as the interest grew, I started saving for a decent starter camera. Once I made the purchase, I was hooked!
A three week trip through Europe in the summer of 2016 got me started into landscape photography. A childhood love for aviation pulled me into photographing airshows. Many different areas of life that I enjoyed were also excellent opportunities to hone my skills as a photographer.
I work full-time as a science teacher at Trinity Christian School in Monterey, California. I received my bachelor’s degree in Recording Technology from California State University, Monterey Bay.
