The Artist's Den, Inc - Photography Division was conceived by Dustin James Leighton and Jeff Griffin. Together they sought to bring a more personal experience to the art of photography.
I'm an actor first. I've worked in almost every median of the craft from stage to television to film and more recently have crossed over into the realm of directing. I feel confident with my ability to see nature's true essence. My goal in photography is to create a comfortable yet cleverly off balance atmosphere so that I can capture the soul of my subject. Other photographers tell me my work is very 'real.' I'm still not sure what that means, but it resonates with me. I crave truth, not some beautified rendition of it. Life is beautiful. Where you are right now is where you choose to be. That's also how you're perceived. Pictures should emanate that choice. - Dustin James Leighton, Artistic Director
TADINC Photography focuses on location shoots.
Part of the art form whether staged or not is seeing it in a way no one else has seen it before. Whether we're pulling clothes, placing props, requesting a hair change, we're always looking for a new perspective. There's not much in art that hasn't been captured already nonetheless we're always striving to manifest something unique. - Jeff Griffin, Co-Producer
