About

Mary Dail, Executive Producer + Creative Director, Big Leo Productions

Big Leo Productions is an agency representing a talented and diverse constellation of directors, photographers, and stylists with expertise in food and beverage, hospitality, interiors, lifestyle, and beauty.
Mary founded Big Leo in 2003 in New York City after an inspiring era as Photography Editor with Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia where she met some of the industry’s most accomplished creatives from photographers and stylists, to creative directors, editors, and producers. Her commitment to advocating on behalf of artists and their businesses in the commercial photography industry was the motivation behind starting her own agency.

She oversees marketing and career development for professional commercial artists by collaborating on promotional strategies, creating stand-out portfolio materials and strengthening artist-client relationships. Big Leo provides a holistic approach to artist management and offers full service production support to its roster of artists.

Mary is also the Co-Founder of Focus On Women, an organization built to elevate and empower female-identifying creative professionals in the commercial photography industry. By creating a comprehensive directory of female creatives and empowering them with valuable resources and access, we aim to help expand their communities by offering educational, networking, and mentorship opportunities.
