Hi there!
my name is Daniel Otto, i´m a 29 years old freelance web-devoloper and photographer from st. ingbert, germany.
i like snowboarding, skiing and mountainbiking and i love photography.
i was 9 years old when i got my first camera.
i started to take photography more seriously when i took on an apprenticeship in a postproduction agency.
Working with these great pictures got me excited to create some of my own.
in 2001, i started with a canon 300d and a book about the basics of photography.
i also bought a couple of newspapers and books and applied for an account in a german online e-learning platform about photography.
Sometimes i was watching up to 1000 images on flickr to find inspiration.
in october 2011, an 30 years old Canon AE1 SLR was given to me by my girlfriends grandfather,
so i started into analog photography. i´m looking forward to experiment with
different kinds of films and to start image development.
I´m quite excited about that!
(take a look at the first results here)
of course, i´m still interested in complex composings (it was my job), but right now i am mostly interested in taking pictures of people, especially portraits! i like simple and casual pictures in available light situations as much as fashion and beauty pictures with complex lightsettings!
my camera is a canon 5d mark 2,
i use a canon 24-105 f4 IS, canon 100mm f2.8 IS macro, a canon 50mm f1.4.
... and some studio stuff!
