Daniella Hehmann (M.A.)

Daniella is a visionary, creative and innovative photographer with an extraordinary background in the international fashion, beauty & advertising industry. Her work has been featured in numerous international publications. Daniella has worked for various clients, shooting fashion and beauty editorials, and advertising campaigns. Her work has been exhibited in solo and group shows in Germany and the USA.

Daniella graduated from the Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich with a master’s thesis "Essay on the Photography of Paul Strand". Majoring in American studies, her focus shifted early on to visual media, where she was introduced to the work of the masters of Film Noir like Fritz Lang, Elia Kazan, Orson Wells, and the photography of Diane Arbus, Nan Goldin, and Cindy Sherman. The discourse about the relativistic and feministic writings of Margaret Mead, Naomi Wolf, and Kathy Acker initiated in her a process of experimenting with the self as a cultural being. Questioning borders of gender and culture is one of her recurring topics.

Since Daniella’s passion for photography does not end with creating work herself, she is the curator of TWENPICS, a collection of 20th-century photography.

Daniella works out of Munich & Los Angeles.
