Specialties
Commercial Photography to support Business.
I specialize in both architecture and people. Since 1988 I've
served many leading businesses and organizations, hospitals, architects, designers, developers,
contractors, artisans, artists, ad agencies, magazine and news publications.
While my work has often resulted in both regional and national awards for clients, the purpose is really to support their overall success through powerful imagery.
History
Established in 1988.
Established as a commercial photography studio in Tacoma Washington, 1988 with two very different interests focused the assignments into both architectural (interiors particularly) and people related work, for commercial clients.
In 1992 was asked to exhibit in Vladivostok Russia, during the opening of that city,6 months post USSR.
Many clients, mostly from the Puget Sound Area over the years, shooting primarily in W.Washington, Oregon, N. California, Texas and Washington D.C.
Meet the Business Owner: Dane M.
Simplicity is a hallmark of both Dane's work and his work methods. His years of experience
allow him to move quickly to the best angle, the best shot. His naturalistic style eschews
the fussy, the over-planned, the trendy, instead embracing an almost Asian "less is better"
philosophy that seeks to reveal the deep truth of things.
He has been largely influenced by the greats--Ruth Bernhardt, Brett Weston, Ansel Adams,
and Imogene Cunningham. His business, DG Studio, holds a private collection of
photographs by each of these artists.
