Based in Memphis and in seemingly in love with the art of photography, Chris Patterson has one of those photographer's portfolios that don't come by the dozen. Notice that he's also got a good blog up and running.
I like the implementation of the site but as the previous poster mentioned, a number of the photos are indeed very average and uninspired in choice and execution.
I like the flash site itself, it's a clean and functional site and jaunty angle of the preloader just adds a little something but again, a rather unimpressive choice from styleboost here.

I disagree with you jm. I'd like to say that this site has a quite a few beautiful pictures and is worth revisiting. As for the camera he uses, it could very much be a crappy one (for I really don't know to much about 'it') still I think the guy gets his pictures right and very intimate to the surroundings. The scenography that he is shooting on/in is IMO quality, and also the results, the photos.

i think that are awesome pics, and i think u dont see the conection betwen all the jobs, thats wy you dont like it. the site its not about taking a good picture, whit good light, good camera etc.. its about what is taking the photo to, and that is the great about it

come on ! It is great! This kind of kitch display of work is an explored style. We have seen photographers, film makers etc use it in different ways when it is important for the subject, tone and style to come through. I don't see what the debate is about, the artistic vale of this work. Digital has brought a new style a new narrative and vision. He is one of the few who is exploring it. This classical analysis of photography does not work

It's almost there... OK, so the work isn't the most technically advanced and getting to know his camera that bit better would be a benefit, but this is a really nice 'project' site. What we should excited about is rejoicing in the ordinary - the mundane has a beauty which all of us can capture because we are all part of it. The next time you are sat at a bus stop, or riding your bicycle along the street, or waiting in line, remember that you are, somehow, part of a photograph that's yet to be taken...

Most of the photographs are made with a bad digital camera : bad colors, bad hues, inelegant back-lights (turn the camera on manual mode, dude...), etc. I can't believe it. The pictures look like the one that you can find on every 15 years old's girls blogs... >> without interest. An absolutely useless website. Sorry for my english.
