About me
Hi, I’m Dane, a photographer based in Phoenix, Arizona, with a passion for capturing moments that truly matter. My work spans event photography (with a special heart for non-profits), landscape and nature, portraits (both two and four-legged), and street photography. Whether it’s a corporate gathering, a milestone celebration, or a personal portrait session, my mission is simple: to ensure you have a great experience from start to finish and feel confident that your vision will shine through in the final images.
My story
I’m a native Phoenician who’s also had the privilege of calling Newport Beach, CA and Denver, CO home over the years. My love for photography started young, inspired by family trips with adventures to places like Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, and the Boundary Waters of Minnesota. My parents always had a camera in hand, preserving our memories.
Way back when, I picked up an old Pentax K1000 (which I still own and use to this day) and began my journey in film photography, developing and printing thousands of images in college. Over time, I embraced the digital era, photographing cities and landscapes across the U.S., Canada, Costa Rica, Brazil, and Argentina. With some of my photos being used in local AZ travel ads.
My portfolio includes corporate headshots, non-profit anniversaries, concerts, charity golf tournaments, and more.
Why work with me?
Photography is more than just clicking the shutter. It’s about listening to your story, understanding your goals, and crafting images that reflect them. My promise is to collaborate closely with you so that the images we create aren’t just beautiful, but meaningful.
A Thank You
Thank you for visiting my website and taking the time to view my work. I hope my images speak to you and maybe even inspire your next project or adventure.
And of course, a quick shout-out to my VP of Editing, Mildred, my ever-faithful canine companion. She’s not the fastest with Photoshop, but she’s an expert in morale-boosting, squirrel chasing, and tail wags.
