Patti started out in the art department at PAPER MAGAZINE in the early 90's and could not have had a better education in street art than that! She was and still is super influenced by graffiti, street photography and the energy of the then underground scene of skating and b-boying. You can find traces of these influences in a lot of her photographs. Going from graphic design to photography has been a seamless transition. Having extensive knowledge of the print process and retouching is a big help in post-production and just adds another level of expertise to what she offers when shooting. Patti recently fell in love with food photography and has been honing her skills in this space for the past 3 years.

Ricardo Picón is a Brooklynite born in Venezuela with over ten years of experience shooting portraiture, products, antiques, food, real estate, and interiors for commercial use.

Picón is an avid art photographer as well; his influences come from hyperrealism, surrealism, landscape, conceptual photography, portraiture, and urban sights.
