ABOUT dylan
Originally from Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, I moved to New York City to study acting for film in 2004. I received my front-of-camera training at the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts, graduating in 2006. As we all know, sometimes pursuing one dream can lead to another, and I began my photography business shortly thereafter. In January of 2014 after 10 years in NYC I relocated to Los Angeles, CA.
I have been able to use my on-camera training and experience to develop my own unique photographic style. My headshot style, known as the Cinematic Headshot, took form in NYC and I now teach the style to other headshot photographers around the country. I’ve been very fortunate to be considered one of the top headshot photographers in the country, and continue to work with actors and corporate clients to deliver the best headshots possible.
In addition to headshots and environmental portraits, I specialize in two other key areas; hotel & hospitality / architectural photography and aviation photography. I have worked with all major hotel brands and numerous boutique hospitality companies over the last 10 years, and have recently expanded my business to include aviation photography, delivering a new and updated image asset library for Clay Lacy Aviation, one of the largest private jet charter companies in the world.
After 10+ years in business as a photographer, I’m taking all I’ve learned and moving fast into the direction of pursuing dreams in cinematography and filmmaking. For more information about my video work please visit my new new site METSA Films
Whatever your photographic needs may be, I am committed to always doing the best work I can possibly do, and pushing the limits of my creativity in each shoot.
