Our mission
We love making iconic art together.
We capture the focused intention of beautiful moments in life, sport, and culture. We look for the moments that inspire our hearts and minds—the moments that find the athlete in all of us; moments that entice our imagination for more.
The Studio
Our photographers and directors are supported by an in-house team of assistants, DITs, producers, editors, art director, and retouchers: a crew ready to collaborate with you on your next project.

Our methodology
What we do
Swanson Studio creates and produces digital still and motion imagery. Since 1992, the heart of Swanson Studio’s work is based on inspiration: that tickle on the brain that makes you want to keep creating over and over again.
The joy in our work comes from collaboration — the creation of something greater than what could be achieved alone and the relationships built along the way. We choose to work and function as a team, not only because there is strength in numbers, but also because it’s a lot more fun.
Our Process
We celebrate the process of creation by layering ideas, resources, methods, and energy to produce something new and exciting. Our vision is the way that we approach imagery — the blend of experiences and personality that goes into how we view the world around us.
