Hello,

 

I'm Daniela, the photographer behind the Daniela Rifai Photography. I'm helping brands to expand their business through creative product photography and videography.  

​

I started my career a decade ago, while still studying media and marketing at the university, as a journalist for an art-focused radio and later in an opinion-forming magazine. In my spare time, I cultivated my interest in photography by working on various personal, as well as school projects and assignments.

 

Experimenting with different kinds of photography, from reportage travel photography, through portraits to still life, I greatly developed my skills and explored my own style and preferences. 

​

With the rise of social media, especially Instagram, I eventually decided to pursue a career in digital marketing and photography, emphasizing engaging lifestyle and product photography. Since then I successfully worked with many premium brands in segments ranging from luxury travel, and automotive to beauty, fashion, or jewelry brands.

​

You can also see me pose in front of my own camera when the brands I work with find it to be the most convenient option. 

​

My work was featured on the official social media channels of brands like BMW or Park Hyatt Vienna.

 

My love for faraway destinations and dreamy atmospheric light and composition is projected into my product photography and videography. I'm drawn to minimal, meditative, and modern visuals. For me, a studio is where everything is under my control and serves one goal - to create extraordinary sensational photography or video, elevating product and brand. 

​

Besides working with the brands, I'm a dedicated portrait photographer. My genuine interest in people helps me to capture the best version of themselves with a focus on their individuality. I do so with great enthusiasm if not obsession, for the sake of getting the best outcome possible.
