Your photo’s are amazing!
I am currently studying A-Level photography, and I am researching Aurora Crowley and yourself as part of my coursework.

I was wondering if it would be possible for you to send me a photograph of yourself to include in my research?
I have looked all over the internet hoping to come across one of you, but so far no luck.

Please keep it up, I love looking at your work!

Hi!

My name is Morgan Crossley and I work at a production company in New York called Kornhaber Brown. Just wanted to write to you and say that I love your blog, and I wanted to let you know about a project we just finished for PBS featuring Patrick Rochon and Aurora Crowley, documenting their work and the art of light painting. It’s for an ongoing web series we’re doing for PBS called “Off Book.” We’re super stoked on it and we thought you might be interested in checking it out!

You can view the piece here:

We’d love to hear what you think!

Thanks,

- Morgan

Wow great research! You haved helped me fill in a few gaps in my own research. I have fallen for light painting myself and having fun with it. I have been working on a short essay on light painting then I stumbled on to your work, first your photography,( WOW by the way) and now your history on the subject. Thanks

Patrick,what can I say fantastic images,I really love them. Many years ago I did a test with a lazor pen light and got some really moody dark portraits. I loved the fact that when the sitter moved,I found a new plain of focus giving very interesting results. I im interested to know what light source you favor,if you dont mind my asking. Keep up the incredible work.

Fabulous stuff. I share your love of using photography to do more than just capture what’s there.
