Daniel Montero / Founder

It started with a camera.

Daniel Montero is a Colombian-born, New York-based photographer. Photography has been part of his life since he watched his father capture family trips on camera. At fifteen he was handed his first professional camera, and he taught himself everything after that.

The photographs came first. Five original works are in private collections. His work was shown at Red Dot Miami during Miami Art Week 2025, and in 2026 at the Marbella Art Fair with Monat and at Monat Gallery in Madrid.

His work now spans filmmaking, fine art photography, software, and private estate operations, and each venture in the group sits in one of those fields. Some make creative work. Others build the tools and services around it.

“I create photographs to bring stillness into spaces and light into people’s lives.”
