Danny Pleckham is a designer, photographer, and videographer from Yorkville, Illinois - a small town just outside of Chicago. With a B.A. in Advertising & Graphic Design from Grand Canyon University (2023), Danny brings over a decade of creative experience across photography, graphic design, video editing, and creative direction.

Danny's creative journey began with design, using it as a medium to communicate and express his vision. Shortly after, he expanded into photography, initially capturing candid portraits and landscapes before transitioning into the music scene later on. Over time, Danny has been able to carve out a unique space at the intersection of music, sports, and street culture. He has photographed world-renowned artists like Juice WRLD, Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, J. Cole, and Will Smith with a list that is continuously growing. Both his photography & design work has been featured in campaigns and collaborations with major platforms such as Rolling Loud, Lyrical Lemonade, Complex, the Phoenix Suns and more.

Danny has also led creative teams, launched brand campaigns, and built a strong freelance presence nationwide. All this has been happening while Danny has been capturing and contributing to the culture that inspires him. Whether through visuals, clothing, or event production, his goal remains consistent: to make work that feels authentic, intentional, and rooted within a bigger message.

Alongside his personal work, Danny is also the founder of CNCRT, a creative brand and platform focused on uplifting Chicago’s creative community through events, experiences, and storytelling.
