Patrick Pawlowski Photography

Weddings / Couples / Portraits / Engagements / Family

The world is full of beauty and wonder. The beauty is everywhere to be found if one has eyes to see it. It is my passion to capture the beauty of the world and its inhabitants.

I’m Patrick.

I am a Freelance Photographer based in Detroit, Michigan. Photography has been my passion for as long as I can remember but for a long time I wasn’t sure what role it would play in my life. As a hobby it could feel empty at times, until I realized the incredible joy I receive by using my skills and talents for others. I use my talents for the glory of God, Whom is at the center of all that I do and the values I bring to my work and personal life. Making the decision to pursue what I love has already changed my life in ways I could have never imagined.

I love my work and moreover, I love making other people happy through my work; which is always my goal and motivation. It is an indescribably wonderful feeling to provide others with photos that are both beautiful and hold memories that will be cherished the rest of their lives. It couldn't be more fulfilling.

Client testimonials.

  • "Patrick was wonderful to work with! He captured our wedding ceremony perfectly. The day of our ceremony it was on and off raining - we were worried it may affect our photos. But, even in bad weather, Patrick was able to create both stunning portraits and candid photos of us and our family! We loved his work so much that we also asked him to take our family photos! He was able to perfectly capture my 6 month old daughter's smile and personality. We will cherish his photographs of our family for our lifetime!"

    Brooke Froebe

  • "Patrick's work in photography has profoundly impacted my life, and the lives of many of my family and friends. His attention to detail & commitment to capturing the vision of everyone he works with elevates his final product far beyond what you could ever imagine. I have yet to meet anyone who comes close to rivaling his passion for the craft, and dedication to delivering a five-star experience with every job he takes. Patrick is a great photographer, yes. But as great as he is at capturing beautiful moments that last a lifetime, he's an even better friend. I cannot recommend Patrick enough as the only photographer you will ever need."

    Ethan Rice

  • "Patrick is a fantastic photographer to work with. He did our wedding photos and not only did they come out AMAZING, but when we couldn’t think of other ideas or poses to do, he instantly had more ideas for us to try. His ability to capture the photo and any editing he does really makes it feel like you’re reliving the moment. He captured the absolute best moments of our big day. I can not recommend Patrick enough as a photographer. 10/10"

    Calvin Rossiter

  • "Patrick’s photography is like turning real life moments into fairytale stories. He uses his whimsical and light photography style to capture both candid and structured photographs that both turn out amazing. He did my sisters senior photos and has taken photos for multiple parties and gatherings and does a great job of capturing the joy of each session. I would recommend Patrick in a heartbeat if you are looking for fresh, aesthetically pleasing photos ready to be framed and cherished forever!"

  • I have been in love with Fujifilm cameras for years now and I mainly use a Fuji x-t5 and Fuji x-t30. I’m looking to buy a canon in the future as a secondary camera to try out but I love my fuji’s.

  • I am from Detroit and I live and work from here but have traveled for work plenty! I am not limited to the Detroit area and am willing to take jobs anywhere in Michigan, depending on timing and if travel was compensated. I also am willing to travel anywhere else if I have the time, if compensated.

  • I typically will provide the finished set within a week after the session. If I am super booked it probably would be more like 2 weeks. However, if the photos are wanted very quickly (or a preview), we could negotiate.
