Hello, and thanks for stopping by my Blog!!
My name is Niraj Patel, and I’m a freelance photographer based in Chicago. I come from a wonderful family that has formed the base of who I am today. My wife and I currently reside in the River North neighborhood of Chicago with our two insanely energetic puppies, Gizmo and Nala, who (thankfully) never seem to mind when I have a camera in my hand!
Education-wise, I have a degree in Finance from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Law degree from Loyola University—Chicago. While my stints in the fields of Finance and Law have been rewarding, my sincerest passion lies in the world of Photography. The feeling I get when I pick up my camera (“Leroi”) is unlike anything else I have ever experienced and, in Photography, I’m confident that I have found my true-calling in life.
My ultimate goal for this Blog is for it to be slightly different than every other photographer’s blog. While I will undoubtedly create posts that focus primarily on my photography, I will also provide you with some of my favorite recipes as well as introduce you to people/organizations that I find interesting. Much like everything else in life, this Blog is a work in progress so make sure you check back frequently and, in return, I will strive to make every post worth your while.
You can find me on Facebook and Twitter. More information on my services as a photographer can be found here, and my portfolio of fine art photography may be viewed here.
Thanks again for stopping by, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
