Patricio Orozco-Contreras' photostream |

My English is terrible, but I've realized that so many people reads the flickr info, that it'll be my first choice...sorry about my mistakes...
I'm a Musician, undergraduate on Classical Guitar, and I'm no longer teaching at University of Passo Fundo @ Brazil. After taking photography as a hobby in the last 15 years, I decided to try this as a pro.... It's so challenging and full of technical issues... and I love it...and, after all, just meetin' so many great people, this beautiful and generous women, their families and individual personalities...Really joyful!
My equipment:
My old and faithfulll Canon EOS 5
A little Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT, with grip
My new Canon EOS 30D, with grip
28-80mm f3.5-5.6 USM
18-55mm f3.5-5.6 EF-S
70-200mm f4 L (my favorite...and it´s white!!!)
50mm f1.8 (the cheapest, and really enjoyable...)
60mm F2.8 Macro... last days, my "all time" companion...
135 F2 L Well, ther most amazing piece of glass I ever tried...
Flashes, 420EZ and 430 EX
Manfrotto tripod and Head
And some Lowepros, to carry all my toys!
Some people asked me about "The Box" so, let me explain:
About "The bOx" question, it's quite a joke: My wife Iadja and me moved, about one year ago, to our brand new home, a lofty style house that we designed from scratch...unfortunately, it's not a common building on our town (and people use to think that its an abandoned store or something like this...) so, to describe it for our friends, we always say that "it looks like a big white and blue box"! Simple as that, it has big lighting from the windows, one of them with approx. 20 ft of height...and, being quite spacious, It works fine as my improvised studio,and lets me use long lenses indoors, what i really like!

Hi my friends and flickr mates... I'm quite shy just because I've been leaving a lot of great photographers without the "flickr friendship", and the possibility of look the full images...So, please, if you want to and are really photography fans, ask me and I will add you...As soon as I can...Cheers, and thanks by your support!
LAST UPDATE: THERE'S O LOT OF GUYS WITHOUT ANY PICS PICKING BUNCHES OF MINE AS FAVORITES... IF YOU HAVE NO PERSONAL SHOTS, I'LL BLOCK YOU, FOR SURE....
I Live In Sta Maria - RS - Brazil

Un Terrícola extraño says:
"Constancia, buen gusto y dominio de un número de técnicas fotográficas hacen que el trabajo de Patricio sea considerado como un ejemplo a seguir por muchos de nosotros. Se necesita la sensibilidad de un músico para reconocer la música en sus fotos, cosa que celebro."

Dougson says:
"Patricio was one of the first photographers I discovered on Flickr and I follow his work religiously to this day. No one brings the kind of style he does to figure work. He's prolific and tops in any criteria you can name, superb composition, expert lighting, perfect post production...take your pick. I've learned more about portraiture by looking through his photostream than in the 100s of dollars I've spent on workshops and books.
Thanks Patrico and keep up the great work."15th February, 2008

"Ok, this guy is an inspiration. I am in awe of his work. Few can capture the honest beauty of a woman like Patricio.
I am drawn to the wonderful tonality of his compositions, the way in which his models are so relaxed and the excitement that he communicates about his work."31st July, 2007

vasundharb says:
"If you ask me, I am no expert, but I feel one need not be to appreciate Art, because Art is what every one should admire irrespective of the skill they have. Patricio will not take photographs, he looks at people and creates the improved ones. And I am not surprised , if the persons he look at will always admire the ones he created than they often see in the mirrors. I mean it."

Robert Weissner (off/on) says:
"Patricio’s portrait work inspires. His skilled use of light makes his stunning models come alive before us, and his willingness to share his techniques, passions and insights is the mark of a true professional. Every visit to his photostream is a wonderful discovery of talent that I find uniquely rewarding. And I must admit I am a little envious of “The Box” and his beautiful friends."
