Daniel Fernandez, a Cuban-born photographer, overcame adversity to find his calling in photography. Fascinated by architecture since childhood, he skillfully employs lines to direct viewers' gaze. His photographic journeys in search of light capture deeply resonant moments on a subconscious level.

His passion for photography was ignited by his high school teacher, Ms. Pontus. He entered his work to the Texas VASE event in 2014. His photos earned scores of 3/5 and 4/5, and one of them was published in the "Best of College and High School 2015 Nikon Emerging Photographers."

Daniel began exploring abandoned locations. Despite others' perceptions of danger and waste, these places felt like freedom to him. His curiosity led him to wonder about the stories behind them. He also started chasing rooftops and emerged into Houston creative community in 2015. As he continued to develop his skills, he began receiving inquiries for portraits in summer 2017, which motivated him to take a leap of faith in his career. His long-term goal is to become a destination wedding photographer.
