Muench is the primary photographer for more than forty books, and has participated in numerous one man exhibits. One of his favorite assignments was in 1975 when he was commissioned to provide photographs for 33 large murals on the Lewis and Clark Expedition for Jefferson Expansion Memorial in St. Louis, Missouri, including 350 smaller eco photographs to accompany the murals. Hanging of this permanent large collection was completed in June, 1976.
David Muench has studied under the tutorship of nature and has tried to follow his own intuitions and perceptions, without imitating work of other photographers. In his words: "For me, making photographs is always a total and continuing involvement. Underlying my need for expression of a spirit of the land are certain patterns of discovery and exploration. Intense creative awareness, along with the patience in waiting for dramatic forms of sun and shadow, unusual light, or a decisive moment of mood, challenge my mind's eye toward achieving, what I like to call, a timeless moment.”
