After so many years working in the fashion industry, Daniela has acquired the vision to capture the simple beauty that surrounds us. Her magnetic eye catches the most undistinguishable abstract shapes that tend to immerse the viewer into the mystery of each shot.

The rich textures identified by each close-up offer the spectator a real feel through all the senses. Whether it is the freshness of the sand, the clarity of the water, the crispness of a wave or the serenity of the deep sea, when asked what she likes to portray she exclaims – spending most of my time on airplanes looking out the window, my eye and mind became fascinated by our world from above.

I started to closely admire and penetrate into the different shapes and perspectives. Sometimes I wished my eyes had a shutter… and began to take photos with a pocket camera. The images were so pure and beautiful that I quickly became addicted. Boarding a plane was never the same again.

On March 30, 2010, Maman -Buenos Aires´s most exclusive art gallery- convened her for a solo exhibition titled “una ventana de paz” (a window of peace). For this exhibit, she chose a collection of 30 pictures of nature, which encourages us to return to the basics and to enjoy the calm and beauty that surrounds us. In addition to nature she is an avant-garde of aerial photography, capturing images of abstract shapes in different surfaces or the simple magic of outstanding cities. Her work was appreciated and recognizes by internationally known publishing house. Power House (PH).
