Dani is a Portuguese-born, half-Russian photographer based in London and a Nikon Creator supported by the brand. She studied film for six years between Lisbon and London, building a strong foundation in visual structure and narrative.

She began photographing at school and at the skatepark at age 12, drawn to her friends’ emotions and the unpredictability of movement. After moving to London, Dani built an impressive career shooting some of the world’s biggest musicians before transitioning from music and fashion into commercial sports photography. She has worked with every major sportswear brand in the world.

In 2020, Dani began returning to the outdoors, both in her work and in her life. Since then, she has spent summers camping in the remote mountain regions between Montana and Idaho. These extended periods off-grid have been deeply impactful, offering space to reflect on how she wants her work to evolve - away from constant output and toward something slower, more deliberate, and personally driven.
