About Dan

My passion for photography has drawn me across the globe, from photographing rugby players in my own backyard of Boston, to shooting todays top models sporting gigantic avant-garde hair sculptures, or capturing portraits of the people of Cambodia. I never tire from the wonder of a new place, a new face and a new story.

The story behind the photo or video is really the most important thing to me, and conveying these stories is what I’m driven to do, day after day. I always strive for an authentic feeling, whether it be in the most simple of portraits to the most heavily composited image. Capturing moments and telling stories is what I love, and I am eager for you to let me tell yours.

This past trip to Cambodia and Thailand has really got ahold on me. The food, the people, the scenery are all mesmerizing. A beauty which is difficult to put into words.

The people work so hard for so little, but have a happiness about them that you would be hard pressed to find in your average American. The experience made me look at what's important in my life, not so much the material things I've attained, but the personal relationships I'm blessed with.

These 3 images represent the peacefulness I saw inside the people of Cambodia. No, Cambodia was not all Temples and Monks, but I think its fitting as an illustration of the country. The temples are strong and have stood the test of time, weather and war. The Monks illustrate, quite literally, the colorful, peaceful and happy people of Cambodia.
