    Beyond our wildest imaginings

    Dan Wright is an unbelievably gifted photographer. We worked with him during a concert performance of our musical The Royal Pyrate at a fairly unconventional performance space - a barge on the waters of Red Hook called the Waterfront Museum. Dan made amazing use of the space - the compositions were dynamic and dramatic and the performers looked glamorous and locked-in. He even came early to get some rehearsal photos - these also looked amazing. I can't say enough good things about him - having good photos of a performance is absolutely a must if you want your show to have longevity beyond a one-off performance and Dan made our workshop look professional beyond our wildest imaginings.

  • Two actors perform a scene outdoors, with one wearing a colorful, knitted hat and the other in a cream-colored crown. The actor in the hat has a surprised expression, while the other actor appears to be speaking passionately.

    Simply perfect!

    We loved every second of working with Dan! From gracious and swift communications, to a professional, pleasant and joyous day-of and of course the absolutely remarkable results. Dan has added an air of ease and excitement to our performance day and gave us photos that are simply perfect to use for years to come. We are very excited for our newfound ability to showcase exactly what our company is all about using Dan's wonderful depiction of our performance.

  • A fantastic photography experience: prompt, efficient, and wonderful photos

    Working with you on the Duruflé & Lusitano concert was fantastic! You were prompt, and as soon as the space and goals were introduced to you, you were independent and efficient - which is very much appreciated with a small staff/group. The photos were wonderful - we really like the diversity of images (full group, side shots, etc) as well as the wonderful lighting/editing job.

    Dan has become our go-to production photographer because they NEVER disappoint. We trust them to get the job done, and boy do they! They know how to capture our essence in a photograph so we can show the world who we are and what we stand for. We are deeply thankful to call Dan a part of our team.

  • Dan is highly professional and captured candid moments with ease

    Working with you was surprisingly easy. You were unobtrusive during the shoot (an advantage for a photographer, I would say!), you shot quickly and thoroughly. You were very professional, and you know how to use your time efficiently. The number of good photos we received was very large; the only problem (not really a problem!) is trying to decide which to use. since so many were very effective. You captured wonderful candid moments and the energy and enthusiasm of our performers.

  • A breeze to work with and stunning results

    Working with you has been wonderful for us. We’ve had a variety of photographers work with us at Weill Recital Hall over the last 20 years and you have been the easiest and best results we have ever had. You know so much about Carnegie and the staff all know and like working with you so it was a breeze. That is why I immediately booked you for all future concerts there. I didn't need to explain the rules or the lighting. We were blown away with how smoothly working together went. The photos are gorgeous! Beautiful pictures and vibrant colors. We had just one where we wanted truer colors for the red and blue and you were so prompt and efficient at correcting the colors and sending a new edit over. The expressions you captured are wonderful. Everyone was thrilled.

    Dan captured the small moments

    The photos came out amazing! You did such a good job of capturing reaction shots and encapsulating small moments from the show. The photos are well balanced and crisp.

  • A young woman intently plays the piano on stage, wearing a light blue dress with a bow. Her hair is tied back with a headband. The piano, marked "Steinway & Sons," reflects the stage light, highlighting her focus and the elegance of the venue.

    A great variety!

    Thank you Dan for gorgeous images! The event was sensibly captured, with a great variety of angles for each performer. It is quite obvious Dan loves what he does - he was very engaged and enthusiastic throughout the event. Great vibe - very nice to work with him!
