My name is Patrick Fleming and I’m a photographer and videographer based in Shanghai, China.
Panrui 潘睿 is my Chinese name.

In school the only subjects that could adequately compete with my imagination were the social studies. Said imagination has been dominated by film and visual mediums and the desire to be behind the camera. Here I aim to intersect those passions: I would love for you to join.

Why China? My decision to be here has always been grounded in humanism. I want to understand the world. China is only the first step in my life outside my native USA.

Collaboration with other artists and creatives is my goal. I wish to meet all types of those who seek to explore and create. Please reach out if you like what I’m doing and maybe we can make something together.



A bit about me

Photo

My photography focuses on portraiture as well as exploration.

Portraits are a
means of connecting with varied and interesting people, not just for commercial purposes. It’s my aim not only to capture a moment for the individuals, but to capture a reflection of something deeper inside them. Browse some examples of my portraits here. If you want more information, inquire here for portraits.

Exploring landscape, street, long-exposure and so on,
these are personal moments collected while exploring new places and experiences. Considering they are a range of genres I simply categorize them as Exploration. Selected photos are available for printing. Read the stories behind them, and inquire here for prints.

My videography work focuses on exploring the world both broadly and in detail. I want to share my perspective on the breadth of life and what we do with it.

Personal Work

Small World is a travel documentary project and a primary focus of my time and attention. Through my lens, I hope to bring light to corners unknown and vividness to the misunderstood.

Commercial Work

I have experience working with hotels, independent beauty brands, diplomatic organizations, engineering companies, city governments, businesses small and large, as well as conducting interviews.
