Imagine.

Ron Schwager is not just a photographer; he is a true visual magician. I've had the privilege of working with Ron during my professional career, and later, I cherished the bond of friendship that developed. In our professional collaborations, Ron consistently astounded my team and me with his creative approach, transforming the ordinary into marketing masterpieces that never failed to 'wow' our customers. Together with his talented assistant, Yvonne, Ron's work was nothing short of alchemy, weaving magic with light and composition. I'm delighted that Ron has decided to share his work with the world through this website. Explore his collection, and you, too, can experience the magic of Ron Schwager's visual storytelling.

Ron Schwager has made a deep impression on me. Taking photos of decent technical quality is commonplace, but Ron’s work is anything but common. His art provides a rare insight into the motive and emotion of his subjects.  Through his lens, Ron sees beyond the image and is able to tell our story with uncanny depth and insight.  Ron’s extraordinary images have made a great contribution to the success of our mission of empowering children through the arts.

Have you ever wanted to reach out and take a piece of fruit from a bowl because it looked so real?  Ron Schwager, master photographer for many decades, is someone that has this ability to almost “trick” the eye with realism and emotion. The commercial aspect of his work has been part of hundreds of food and restaurant campaigns which often times verge on fine art.  Quality, subject matter, color (or lack of) are the focus of Schwager’s  work which must be seen to be believed.

What separates a great photographer from the rest? Is it a great image? Is it something created from nothing? A portrait or a landscape? Or perhaps their ability to take a raw image and create art from it? It is all of these things, and it is a great photographer that can do this for several decades and still be in a state of learning, always searching, always striving to do better. Ron Schwager, my friend… is a great photographer. A very wise person once said to me… Judge a person’s praise on the level of respect,that you have for that person. Ron Schwager has my respect. For after a lifetime of creating images, I am a fussy bastard myself and I appreciate quality, I appreciate finesse and the ability to take on any genre of the image making world and absolutely nail it. Ron Schwager does this. Oh… and by the way… he is a good human as well and that means a lot to me.

I have had the privilege of working with Ron Schwager for the past 25 years, and I can confidently say that his photography has been an indispensable part of showcasing my design creations. Ron’s creativity knows no bounds, and his ability to capture the essence and intricate details of my lavish interiors and custom one-of-a-kind jewelry is truly awe-inspiring. His keen eye for composition, lighting, and his knack for bringing out the unique beauty in every piece is nothing short of remarkable. Ron’s dedication to his craft and his commitment to ensuring that each photograph tells a story of its own sets him apart as a photographer.

Ron Schwager’s photography skills are truly exceptional. His keen eye for detail, composition, and lighting brings out the best in my designs, capturing the essence and beauty of the architectural space in a way that exceeds my expectations. Ron not only understands the technical aspects of architecture but also possesses an artistic sensibility that elevates the work to a whole new level. I highly endorse Ron to anyone seeking a talented photographer to showcase their architectural creations. His work is simply outstanding. Ron has been outstandingly constant, both domestically and abroad.
