BIO

Daniel Camargo Kfouri was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in 1975. For almost six years of his youth, Daniel tested his capacity to self-express in several areas on visual communications, from an intern at an advertisement agency in 1995 to a graphic designer responsible of magazines and books for a small local publishing house in the summer of 2001. On a month-vacation through Europe carrying a borrowed camera from his ex girlfriend, Daniel finally discovered his passion for photography. Back home to Sao Paulo, by presenting his holidays images, Daniel was selected for a three-month workshop by FujiFilm House of Photography, when he decided to become a professional photographer in the middle of 2002. Daniel started working for a wide range of subjects for magazines for a year, before he joined a local newspaper Folha de S. Paulo, as a press photographer until the end of 2006, the year Daniel focused his career into small and middle-term projects while doing sporadic assignments for the next five years as freelance photographer for The Associated Press, Agence France-Presse and Getty Images, The New York Times, among other Brazilian magazines, in parallel of corporate works for his currently client Nike.
