S19 E188 Daniela Gerson - Food Photographer
Today we're talking to Daniela Gerson! Formerly a chef with a fervent passion for sourcing vibrant produce from local markets, Daniela's journey took an unexpected turn after a back injury led her to discover her innate talent for photography. Now, as a food photographer, creative director, food stylist, and recipe developer, Daniela's images beautifully accentuate the natural allure of real food, capturing its essence with every click. With a studio adorned with an array of captivating props, Daniela collaborates with brands, restaurants, and publications, breathing life into their creative visions from inception to fruition through stunning stills and captivating motion. When she's not immersed in her craft, Daniela finds solace surfing the California coast or imparting her culinary wisdom to her niece, weaving memories as colorful as her challah braids.
