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.

Armchair Storm Chaser

Did you ever have one of those nights,

It has been hot all day, you've been working hard,

but things just fall into place in the evening.  A sea breeze, that must be magical to carry
the opressive heat of the day away, is blowing through your window. The sky has clouds lit by the light pollution of the citylooking more dramatic than shows put on a meer blocks from my office in the theaters of Boston. Behind the clouds peaks a bit of lightning. The first "summer" lighting storm of the year.

Welcome to my night. 

(This image was taken from the window of my office in Boston. I put the camera on Bulb at f8 and waited for lighting to strike. While waiting I employed some light painting techniques on the trees and buildings in the foreground. I litterally shot it from an armchair.)

Rugby: A personal Project


Although, I have not ever played Rugby I have always admired the sport.
I started this personal Project working with the Boston Rugby Football Club last month,
shooting portraits of the players in a raw, honest post game state. Dirt still caked on their
faces, bloody and bruised. Still pumped and ready to fight, or laughing at the battle they
just endured, I had a chance to see the game for more than 30 guys on the field hitting as
hard as they can, I got to see the individual personalities of the team.

I want to thank Glynn MacKenzie, President of the BRFC for helping us put this
all together. 

There are many more images to come, check back for a full preview of the project soon.
