Abby Dix

Abby Dix began her career as a still photographer, having studied photography and design in college. Abby has garnered a reputation as a superb kids director, in addition to shooting a wide variety of images from lifestyle shots of people celebrating daily life, to tabletop, to strong portraits that inform and inspire. She is the director of photography on much of her work, as her comfort with the camera allows her to express her vision more freely.

Abby’s greatest strengths is working with on-camera talent. She is focused on combining dialogue and storytelling with highly art directed visuals and has a terrific rapport with young talent and “tweens. Her warmth and humor make her a natural when coaxing the best performance out of real people and she has worked with numerous celebrities including Muhammed Ali, Joan Rivers, Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, Oprah Winfrey and many others.

In addition to commercial work, Abby has shot documentaries in locations as remote as Inner Mongolia (for Land’s End). She produced, directed and lensed an award-winning documentary on foster children, “No Place to Call Home.” and is currently in development on a women’s series destined for the cable market. Dix is a member of the Director’s Guild of America and she divides her time between New York and Telluride, Colorado, where she mentors gifted students in filmmaking between assignments.
