Trout Underwater: Patrick Clayton Joins Our Team

One of the best parts of operating a stock photo agency is acquiring exciting, new photographers to represent. Our newest contributor is Patrick Clayton, one of the country's best-known and most talented trout photographers.  Patrick's dynamic and colorful images of stream trout, taken underwater in the legendary streams of the American West are without a doubt some of the best ever made.  As you can imagine, this collection of brilliant photography took thousands of hours to collect.  But as I always say, "If it were easy, everybody would be doing it." 

Patrick's love and admiration for these fish are apparent in every image he makes.  These magnificent fish finally have a photographer who has seemingly captured every nuance of their intrinsic beauty time and time again, in photographs that also celebrate the pristine back-country streams they call home.  I've been a long time admirer of Patrick Clayton, and you'll become one too after seeing his pictures.  You can view Patrick's outstanding work in our Patrick Clayton Gallery here.

Patrick joins Bryce Gibson, Todd Pearsons, Christopher Morey, Isaac Szabo, Paul Vecsei and Roger Peterson on our "dream team" of the USA's best freshwater fish photographers.  His work can be licensed for commercial and editorial purposes by contacting us here at Engbretson Underwater Photography.
