I'm Daniel Hoyt, and Danger Ninja Productions is my world behind the lens. I'm continually reinventing myself and creating incredible beauty each time I snap a photo. There aren't any limits to what I do and how much fun I have doing it, and I hope to take as many artists like myself along for the ride.

I take just about any style and mold it into my own. I'm always looking for new opportunities to express my creativity, and I don't limit myself. I love alternative/edgy photos, fashion, glamour, fine art/erotic and more, and I often try to combine those categories in my photos and see what I come up with. I'm a mad scientist with a camera.

A Little About Me

I'm 24 years old, happily married to the love of my life, and a graduate of the University of Oregon. I play entirely too many video games - which often shows up in my photos - and I'm a trained classical musician, a former member of jazz and ska bands, a journalist for a local music magazine and a huge metalhead, so naturally...I like things loud.

I'm pretty chill, though, and probably the most laid-back guy you'll ever meet. I'm as serious about creating art as anyone else, but part of creating art is having a hell of a lot of fun while doing it, so that tends to be what happens at pretty much any of my photo shoots.

I've worked with over 200 people and have recommendations upon request. Though I have several people who model for me consistently, I'm always open to as many new clients as I can get. This makes me extremely busy, but the way I see it, I've got the best job in the world.

Want to work with me?

I'm currently looking for opportunities to really bring out newer heights to my work, so I want serious and focused models, wardrobe stylists/designers, makeup artists/hair stylists and anything else under the sun to make it happen. You want to take part? Drop me a line and let's get some killer ideas rolling.

We'll have a most excellent adventure.* Published:
