Danny Pleckham is a photographer, graphic designer, 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 from a multitude of different projects.

Danny's creative journey began with graphic design at 14 years old when he began making sports designs of various teams or players that he enjoyed at the time. Although many artists start around this time or earlier, this is relevant because that same year Danny’s work was found & used by the Phoenix Suns. Shortly after, he expanded into photography, initially capturing portraits of friends and landscapes of nature before transitioning into the music scene in 2019. Once his foot was in the door in the music scene, he was able to network with an entirely new group of creatives and artists. He has been able to leverage his unique ability as a multi-faceted creative, allowing himself to be capable of creating just about anything needed visually with the people he has connected with over the years.

Danny has been able to grow exponentially each year, carving out a unique space at the intersection of music, sports, and street culture. He has photographed world-renowned music artists with a list that is continuously growing, and both his photography & design work has been featured in campaigns and collaborations with major platforms such as Rolling Loud, Spotify, Complex, Lyrical Lemonade, the Phoenix Suns and more.

Danny has led creative teams, launched brand campaigns, and has built a strong presence as a visionary 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, or more, 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 the creative community in Chicago, while also elevating music artists nationwide through events, experiences, and visual storytelling.
