Their fully equipped modern studio in Shepparton is often chosen by clients for indoor shoots for the really sharp professional images that are the result. His wedding work needs to be experienced to be believed, winning countless awards, dozens of unsolicited testimonials, magazine covers and more. Of particular renown is his unparalleled work with young babies and toddlers; Mums and Dads often respond emotionally when they first view his images of their offspring, such is the expression, innocence and 'cuteness' he captures. "Photography styles change, we are constantly on a roller coaster ride… What fun!" Dale accepts change readily and is the first fully automated digital studio in country Victoria, a huge learning curve over the past three years. Dale’s capacity to relate to his clients and develop a rapport with them is one of the main reasons why his chosen field was photography.

Dale Wright has run a professional wedding, portrait glamour studio for over 27 years in Shepparton serving the greater Goulburn Valley. He has earned a reputation for his fun, natural, and different photography. When asked what makes his pictures unique, Dale answers that it is a freshness captured within the pictures that makes them so special. “We like to capture a freshness within the picture with a creative approach while still maintaining the traditional elegance that wedding photography embodies for instance” said Dale. While most people know Dale for his photographic abilities, a large number of people do not realise the many facets this man’s creative talent incorporates. Music plays a large part in Dale’s life, with Dale having his own band for many years. A genuine love for people might explain the extra details in Dale’s life, such as his wife Lorraine, son Stuart and daughter Deanne. Other memorable moments within Dale’s photographic career include taking the last photos of Sir Edward Dunlop before he passed away, as well as taking pictures of well known identities such as Jeff Kennett, John Brumby, Bronwyn Bishop, Tim Fisher and Bruce Ruxton to name only a few. Dale Wright is a Master photographer with the AIPP and associate with the NZIPP. He is past president of the Victorian APP Australia, current national vice president of the APP Australia (former Portrait Maker Institute). He is the first and only person in Australia to receive a Fellow with the APP Australia. Dale has for two years running won the small business awards for the Greater Goulburn Valley after a lot of scrutiny by unknown judges spying on businesses. Dale is optimistic for the future, including Dale Wright Portrait Maker on the internet, an effective way for Dale to reach his extensive client base which reaches down to Melbourne and up into the southern parts of New South Wales.

Dale Wright Portrait Maker first commenced operation in 1975, its principal Dale Wright setting out to produce the absolute "Rolls Royce" quality imaging at anaffordable price. 'Compromise' was never a word in their vocabulary, and positive word of mouth spread. Originally employed by Lloyd Telfer from Varloine Studios (hence the name of Varloine Cottage today), Dale has continued in the tradition of premium quality imagery, employing an even greater amount of his own extensive skill and experience to the rapidly growing business. 
Dale has always taken his photography very seriously, improving his education and training when this would be beneficial to his customers, career and business. He is currently an associate member of the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (A.I.P.P), Associate of the New Zealand Institute of Professional Photography (A.N.Z.I.P.P), Portrait Maker Institute of Victoria (President 1998 - 2000) and a Certified Practising Photographer (C.P.P).
