Meet Patrick
I am Patrick Handy, your Plano, Texas photographer!
To be honest I don't like talking about myself but since you're here I tell you a little about me. I'm passionate about capturing moments that tell stories through photography. As a headshot and portrait photographer, I find joy in bringing out the essence and personality of individuals in every session. Beyond photography, I am also dedicated to teaching and coaching football. These roles allow me to inspire and mentor others, whether it's through capturing their best angles behind the lens or guiding them to success on the field. I believe in the power of visual storytelling and the transformative impact of sports in shaping character and teamwork. Let's create something memorable together!
Why I Love Photography
My journey into this art form began during the challenging times of Covid-19, where I discovered solace and creativity behind the lens. Interestingly, just before COVID-19 disrupted our lives, I had invested in a new camera with plans to explore and capture my wife and I travel adventures. Little did I know that this camera would become my creative outlet and a catalyst for my newfound passion. What started as a hobby quickly blossomed into a profound calling as I realized the power of capturing authentic moments and emotions. Now, each session is a unique opportunity for me to connect with people, helping them shine through images that tell their stories with honesty and grace. I believe in the transformative impact of photography, turning moments into memories and empowering individuals to see the beauty within themselves.
FAMILY FIRST
During my time at Southern Methodist University, I was fortunate enough to meet the love of my life, my beautiful wife. From the moment we crossed paths, I knew there was something truly special about her. Together, we’ve built a life full of love and joy, and she continues to be my greatest blessing every single day. Now, with the addition of our incredible little one—our precious junior—our world feels complete. They are my everything, my heart and soul, and every moment I spend with them reminds me how lucky I am. I simply can’t imagine doing anything without their love and support."
