From Austria to the World Stage
Sometimes, it’s the bold decision to risk everything that shapes careers worthy of a Hollywood script. Such is the story of Daniel Gossmann, who rose from a small Austrian village to establish himself on the international photography scene.
After earning his master’s degree in photography in 2011, Gossmann set out in 2012 to turn his vision into reality – and Daniel Gossmann Photography was born. Refusing to wait for opportunities to come to him, the ambitious Austrian grabbed his camera, got into his car, and drove to Milan – the vibrant epicenter of fashion, art, and creativity.
Without an appointment, Gossmann walked into one of the world’s most prestigious agencies. By a twist of fate, a secretary’s oversight led to an impromptu meeting with one of the agency’s top agents. A scene straight out of a movie: a young photographer, armed with nothing but talent and determination, makes his case and earns his shot. Gossmann seized the opportunity with precision, charm, and a clear vision – leaving a lasting impression.
Capturing Brands and Icons Worldwide
From international advertising campaigns to exclusive behind-the-scenes moments, Daniel Gossmann brings personalities and brands to life through his lens. Whether photographing Hollywood stars, Olympic athletes, or global brand icons, his work reflects both personality and vision. His focus always remains on the essentials: authenticity and individuality.
Whether it’s for iconic campaigns, powerful portraits, or documentary projects, Gossmann’s photography doesn’t just capture attention – it tells a story.
A Style That Tells Stories
Gossmann’s style is defined by clarity and minimalism. With a sharp eye for authenticity, he creates timeless photographs that resonate on an emotional level. What sets him apart is his ability to adapt to each client’s unique vision. Every personality and brand is showcased in a way that highlights their individuality.
“Photography is like a language,” Gossmann explains. “My goal is to speak my clients’ language and tell their stories the way they truly want to be heard.”

Entrepreneurship Beyond the Lens

Daniel Gossmann then went on to create IDD Square GmbH in 2022, a company specialising in investing, developing and distributing marketing brands, products and services. One example is TOM Parking.
As a multifaceted entrepreneur Daniel Gossmann loves working with people to create added value for companies, people and our planet. “Ongoing and sustainable success doesn’t just happen by chance”, as he passionately puts it.
