Welcome to Dennis Maida Photography

Dennis Maida is a U.S. Navy veteran and fine art photographer whose work is rooted in quiet strength and emotional clarity. After a 31-year military career, he turned to photography as a path to healing—capturing stillness, structure, and space with profound intention.

His award-winning images explore rural Americana, minimalist landscapes, and architectural form. Each piece invites viewers to pause and reflect—crafted with the same precision and depth that shaped his time in uniform.

Dennis’s work has been featured in Newark Liberty International Airport, Disney’s Daredevil: Born Again, Midwest Living, Charleston Living, and VUE Magazine. He is the founder of The Covert Collection Gallery in Boonton, NJ, where his work is permanently on view alongside curated exhibitions from photographers across the country.
