Photographer Biography

Patrick Hudepohl: Photographer at photo.net "Patrick is combining the romance of accounting with the romance of computer programming." This is how Philip summarized my life, or at least my day job. In my spare time, I occasionally read a book, I like to take pictures, enjoy sailing very much and am involved with photo.net.

Since the 1960s my dad has been taking pictures, first using a Pentax Spotmatic and later a Nikon FE. Using black and white film, he did his own developing and printing. Most of his pictures are family pictures, including me as a subject since April 1974. He would let me use his camera to take a picture and gradually taught me how the various controls work. I particularly found the process of printing a photo very interesting, having an image magically appear on a piece of paper. For my tenth birthday in 1984 I received my mother's Agfa Parat half-frame camera and I printed my first set of pictures, all by myself.

In February 1994 I bought my first camera, a Nikon F601 and during the next years I added lenses, discovered slide film, upgraded to the F100 etc. In 2007 I switched to the Nikon D200 digital SLR.

I have done a couple of weddings and a few portrait sessions, but most of my photographs show my home town, the surrounding landscape and various places around the world. I occasionally do a bit of photojournalism work, for church or an event at work.

I have written a dozen articles for photo.net, the Panasonic DMC-LX3 review being the most recent one. I manage a wild bunch of photo.net members called the Elves who select the Photograph of the Week.

I also post some photos on flickr.com as well as on my photo blog.
