Dennis is a veteran photographer who has completed hundreds of assignments for publications including the Washington Post and New York Times, and corporate clients like Google, the American Red Cross, and JP Morgan Chase. His subjects have included Pakistani snake handlers, celebrities, presidents, and mass murderers. He has won awards in the national POY competition, three Maryland State Arts Council Grants, an Arthur Burns Fellowship to work at the German magazine Stern, and two Fulbright Fellowships for work in Pakistan and Cambodia.
In 2023, after a decades-long love affair with Colombia, Dennis pulled up stakes and moved to Medellín. He runs a portrait studio in the Laureles neighborhood and shoots headshots and portraits all over the city — Laureles, El Poblado, Envigado — plus editorial work throughout the region. He is an American who speaks fluent Spanish (and, he insists, passable English), so he works easily with Medellín's expat and international community, and he is a good option if you want a professional headshot session in English. He dances salsa On1, On2, and Cuban-style and thinks Bachata should be outlawed. When not taking pictures, Dennis works in web development.

Dennis is an excellent photographer — technically skilled as well as personable, he helps his subjects relax and captures their most authentic selves. I have used him personally, and recommended him to clients, and he always delivers!
Susan Goodell I did a headshot shoot in Laureles with Dennis and had a great time! I'm not comfortable in front of a camera but he had me relaxed and laughing in no time. His experience shows. He's also punctual, organized and efficient — not easy to find in Colombia.
Robin Campbell When I first met Dennis it felt like I'd known him forever. He's an easygoing, fun and very cheerful person. It's easy to relax and be yourself around him, which is pretty essential when you do a photoshoot. Totally recommend!
Ganna Briginets Dennis is fantastic at what he does. I feel silly posing for photos, but he made me feel more comfortable and confident by making me laugh. Super happy with my headshots.
Nicholas Austin Dennis is a very talented photographer with a fantastic sense of poses and favorable angles. But I have to say that his best skill is making you feel comfortable and confident about the outcome.
Karen Alvarez Dennis is really great at his job. I'd never had any photos taken professionally and he made me feel at ease — his instructions were great. I highly recommend Medellin Headshots.
