Dan on the Sellaronda, Italian Dolomites
DolomiteSport is also PatitucciPhoto
Dan & Janine Patitucci are full time, professional photographers and athletes. Since 1999, the duo have specialized in commercial and editorial mountain sports, travel and lifestyle photography for clients such as National Geographic Adventure, Patagonia, The North Face, Gore-Tex, The New York Times and many more. For years they traveled to the Dolomites for various assignments and personal fun. Finally, in 2007 they discovered the Sud Tirol’s town of Brunico, the perfect town in which to settle. The couple is literally out each day of the year doing one of the sports they promote. Both are super motivated, dedicating all of their time to managing their businesses, being athletes focusing on bike racing, ultra running, ski randonee racing and even saving a little extra time for gardening and studying Italian.
Janine cruising Dolomite trails
Dan is originally from California while Janine comes from Luzern, Switzerland. She arrived to California in 1996 in an effort to escape the Swiss rain. They met in 1999 while at Santa Barbara’s Brooks Institute of Photography. A Guru in India felt it best that she move back to Europe, thankfully for Dan she listened.

Hi,
Im Sam, a 12 year old from spokane. I was wondering if you set up those amazing trail running, skiing, or mountain biking pictures. Or if you just kind of got lucky and was there at the right time to get those pictures.
Thanks
Hi Sam,
Sometimes they are set up for our work, to get the photo that we need to get, but other times they are made when we are out with our friends and they do something spontaneous. No matter what, they are all real because we do the same sports in the same places, sometimes we just have to go back with the camera.
Thanks,
Dan
