About Me

My name is Patrick Ryan and I’m a freelance photographer based in Washington, D.C. (my hometown). My images have appeared in a number of diverse outlets. I’ve won awards for my political photography. I’ve been Photo Editor at a couple papers in town. Besides hard news, I also shoot features – restaurant reviews, environmental portraits, travel and nightlife stories. I also speak on photo topics and I’ve served as a judge for photo competitions, etc.

SnarkInfested is my sketchbook, a photo blog of my personal and professional work. It’s all about politics, parties, books, travel, art, family, sports, journalism, history, dogs, music, food, style, booze, media types, bars and friends all with a strong DC accent.

If you like what you see (or don’t for that matter) drop me a line at hillpix@yahoo.com

Thanks for stopping by.
