I hired Daniel to shoot a three day incentive trip for a group of 75 people. All 75 trip attendees, including myself, live out of state so Daniel planned meetings with the hotel and offsite locations on his own to familiarize himself before I even arrived in New Mexico. Daniel made guests feel comfortable and captured wonderful memories of the entire weekend.
Daniel is very professional and makes having your photograph taken an experience to remember. He is warm, welcoming and fun to work with. I have used Daniel for my professional photos for years and would highly recommend him. Daniel is a true artist. He has a vision for each photo session that is founded in his desire to capture the perfect moment that expresses your individual essence.

I've been taking photos since I was 8 years old, and professionally since I was 20 in my NYC studio and on location. I've photographed everything from a copper mine in New Mexico to corporate executives in NYC to diamond jewelry to fancy food and cosmetics, environmental portraits and annual reports, catalogs and advertising.
Nancy Nielsen, Divine Dental's Marketing Guru, wanted to rebrand Dr. Valdez' dental practice by photographing the skilled and professional employees at two locations in Santa Fe and Las Vegas, NM., and the state of the art dental equipment and the interactions between patients and the staff.
Nancy hired me to take individual portraits of the office and dental hygiene staff in the studio as well as group shots for use on social media and in advertising.We shot in the Santa Fe office, illustrating the latest in dental equipment and of Dr. V. greeting and working with patients.

My daughter had her first big, out-of-town dressage show this summer in Santa Fe, where Daniel Quat was photographing. We were blown away by the quality and the attention to detail he spent on her rides. He captured the experience beautifully. He was beyond helpful and very responsive to every email. Very pleased!

We were vacationing in Santa Fe and my daughter asked if she could have her senior photos taken there. Daniel was so easy to work with. He was sensitive to what my daughter wanted in her photos and gave her so many options. We walked to some key spots on Canyon Road where Daniel knew the lighting would be perfect. She felt immediately at ease and had so much fun posing next stunning sculptures, old barn doors, and the adobe backdrops, so original to Santa Fe. Daniel’s eye for what would bring out my daughter’s personality was spot on

Working with Daniel to capture myself both personally and professionally was EXCELLENT. Communication was clear and done in such a way that I see myself in the images. I have a very wide selection to choose from and work with. Daniel really understands the importance of getting to know his clients so that it is reflected in the photographs. I highly recommend working with Daniel.

Can't say enough good things about Daniel's work. He is the consummate professional: knowledgeable, responsive, easy to work with, quick and just what I was looking for in a photographer. I have worked with many throughout my career in New York, Washington, Chicago and abroad. Daniel is among the best. He delivers. My publisher and publicist were as impressed as I was with his work. He gave me just what I needed in a professional portrait for my book and website. I can recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation.

Daniel gave me so much guidance before the shoot that I was able to prepare various outfits etc., and therefore everything was calm and no time was wasted. This enabled us to do many shots in 4 different locations/poses around my house. I was very pleased with the selection that I had to choose from, as well as his proofing system that let me gradually narrow down the photos. On top of his professional acumen, Daniel was delightful to meet. His portfolio is outstandingly creative.

Daniel Quat is a very talented photographer in Santa Fe, New Mexico with a remarkable aptitude for capturing the essence of the people he is photographing. His warm and playful personality, combined with absolute professionalism, immediately puts people at ease allowing for a more successful and interesting photo shoot. I hired Daniel to work with a team of clients who are real estate brokers. They enjoyed working with him and were very happy with the final product. I will continue to refer clients to him in the future.

Daniel had come very highly recommended for our corporate group and head shots. He was a pleasure to work with and we got a number of great pictures. He was even able to work with us to have our dogs in some shots. Anyone looking to have totally professional photographs for their website or other corporate purposes should look no further than Daniel Quat. He is not the least expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for and then some.

I am happy to recommend Daniel Quat and his photography. He has done headshots for me, family portraits for me and a number of action and on location shots. His photographs truly capture the essence of me and family and I have always felt comfortable and happy in his presence. He puts me at ease so I am not nervous and my true self comes out. My smiles are genuine and that is because he is very nice to work with (super funny and charming). I am always pleased with my images and use them a lot. Santa Fe is lucky to have Daniel Quat Photography for photoshoots, professional pictures and capturing

There is a reason that many friends and acquaintances in the Santa Fe business world have had professional photos taken with Daniel Quat. He's good! From the consultation over tea to discuss what I needed in the end product to the day of the photoshoot - complete with great music and a playful attitude - I was impressed with his skill, his eye, and his ability to put me at ease. All of these quailities are critical pre-requisites to a high-quality head shot! I don't hesitate to recommend Daniel Quat Photography.

Daniel photographed our wedding in Santa Fe in July. I had no contacts in Santa Fe, destination wedding. He was recommended by a friend in the area. From the very start, he was interested and passionate about capturing the images we wanted to remember our special day. No cookie cutter wedding photos-special, intimate, beautiful, timeless images of a day that we will never forget. HIRE HIM!!!
