Daniel Mingyu Choe


Hello, my name is Daniel Choe, I’m a Korean American portrait photographer born and raised in the Chicago land area, and excited to meet and help you share your story!
I’ve been shooting photography my whole life, from my toy camera as a kid to the Fujifilm gear I use now. Growing up I knew I wanted to do something important with my life that would help others but I didn’t know what exactly that would be. Photography has been a huge part of my life since I was a kid, watching others use a magical camera device. The idea of using a camera to capture the emotions of a living moment felt so special to me. My passion and goals are to take beautiful photos of beautiful moments but also to help others find their story and make them their own. Life is too short to take things for granted so why not live in the moment and let me catch the memories for you?  

Experienced with 7+ years of freelance photography work and communication leadership/customer service. Creative and passionate about every kind of photography project I'm faced with. Hardworking and always reliable in getting the best quality of work. Ready to explore and help develop and achieve greater stories in the realm of photography.
