If you are looking for someone who is personal, fun, creative, relaxed, experienced, honest, and in love with what they do.... that's me! I truly appreciate the opportunity to share in capturing moments in time with my clients.
With parents in the event industry, I grew up with a camera in my hands. I joined yearbook in high school a grade before it was normally allowed. Event photography and portraiture just came naturally for me. I launched my business in 2006, at the age of 21, and since then I have enjoyed collaborating with other artists and vendors around the world. I am based in Central Florida but I am available to travel for weddings and events, and have my passport ready to go!
My style is a combination of photojournalism and traditional photography. My goal is to tell your story, so I want my clients to be able to relax and just enjoy the moment. I know how important photographs are, and my goal is to capture the best images that will keep you looking back, and reliving the memories for years to come!
PUBLICATION: My work is currently on display in the Smithsonian's Museum on Mainstreet Water/Ways traveling exhibit. My work has been displayed in Museums such as Musée de l’Élysée in Switzerland, as well as locally in art events such as Nude Night Orlando/Tampa, and RAW Artists Orlando. My work has hung in galleries such as Art Affair, Abbey, Funky Trunk Treasures, Newfangled and several bed & breakfasts. I have been published internationally in The Steampunk User’s Manual, Illusion Magazine, BASE monthly, Photoshop Creative, Thrust Magazine, IST Magazine, Smithsonian Blog, Future Art Magazine, West Volusia Magazine, Volusia Style as well as in several newspapers.
Daniella was an amazing photographer who has such beautiful pictures that people keep asking me for her information! She takes high quality, creative, beautiful pictures that seem like they came out of a magazine (at least that’s what everyone keeps telling me)! Her communication was incredible. She wanted a very detailed shot list so that she could prepare to meet all my dreams. Meeting ahead of time to talk details before the wedding was super helpful, as the day of is super crazy and you forget what pics you want! She was so friendly, patient, creative, and took such beautiful shots that we are so so so happy with. She was on time, organized, and well prepared. She got some really special shots that I didn’t even think about, and I’m so happy for them...they are some of my favorites. We are so grateful to have had her and her team!

Excellent experience with Koontz Photography!
Koontz Photography was a dream to work with for our engagement and wedding pictures! Daniella's professionalism and excellent communication skills put us at ease throughout the process. It was so wonderful knowing that our photography was in good hands and we didn't have to worry about it on our big day! We absolutely love our photographs and are finding it hard to pick favorites because they are all so beautiful. The most common comment we get about our wedding pictures is, "Stunning!," and we couldn't agree more. We look forward to working with Koontz Photography in the future to document more special times in our lives.

Daniella shot my sisters wedding and I knew I wanted to use her after seeing my sister's pictures! She had never shot at the location I was having my wedding before, so she familiarized herself with it before hand! I have only seen a handful of pictures from her so far (my wedding was 2 days ago) but they are already amazing. can't wait to see the rest.
Daniella is awesome! Shes so creative and her photos are amazing! Ive worked a few weddings with her and its been so much fun. She will help create such wonderful and beautiful wedding memories for you.
