About

Who I am…

I am a sorcerer of shadow and light.

I am a photographer.

I am a skilled artist.

I am a creative force.

My Name is David M Schibel.

My camera offers a glimpse through my eyes, sharing with you, my view of the world that surrounds me.

With more than 20 years behind the lens, I have found a passion for Live Music, Portrait and Sports Photography. Since boyhood, I have had a fascination for music, people and bizarre things people do in this world.

I have worked as the staff photographer and been featured in Arizona Golf Central Magazine; My work has appeared on the cover, centerfold and in featured articles in Pain Magazine, and many other periodicals. My work has been used for album covers, show posters, advertising, websites and on tee-shirts. My photographs have been displayed in art galleries, art shows and won numerous awards including ‘Best of Show’ in many judged events. Clients and people I have had the great pleasure to photograph and work with, include; Alice Cooper, Wayne Newton, Pete Cummings, Steve Haworth, Roger Mayweather, Jeff Ritter, Mark McMillan, KTAR radio, Iron Boy Boxing, PGA, LPGA, S.A.R.R.C., and many many more.

I enjoy working closely with my subjects, capturing the beauty of the golf course or the skill of a swing. Putting the power of live music into still photography. Capturing not only the individual personalities of the athletes and troubadours, but bringing the image to life, you can almost smell the grass and hear the notes coming from the photograph.

My Freedom, my Love, and my Life bring fresh inspiration on a daily basis. I have to give credit to my my three amazing children, for without their input, opinions and just as skewed view of the world around us; I may have missed a few of my favorite shots.
