"Dan does fantastic work! We've hired him on multiple occasions to photograph the Lakeside Pride Symphonic Band, both for formal group photos as well as candid "action" shots during performances. Logistically, he's prompt, he's organized, he blends in seamlessly, and he returns albums efficiently. Artistically, I can always count on Dan to just make it happen! He finds the right perspectives without further prompting, and his end results are beautiful. His rates are reasonable, and he's an all-around wonderful person to work with."
