Hi, I'm Daniel
Daniel Geesen
Dia dhuit! I’m Daniel and for the better part of the last 20 years I’ve had my face behind a camera…
But it was in front of a lens, lying in a muddy field in Wicklow encircled by stomping hooves and clashing weapons, that I heard my calling. “No one is getting this angle, I’m the only one that will ever see this” I thought.
That was on “Vikings” in my green days on set. I soon learned that Unit Stills Photographer is a real job. Not “a” job, “The” job. The one job that perfectly aligns my passions for photography and filmmaking.
Since then I’ve had the privilege to work background on many of the biggest film sets in Ireland for Netflix, HBO, Apple TV+, and Paramount+, where I learned setiquette and the ways of large productions. I’ve been equally privileged to shoot stills on some of the smallest.

Highlights from Daniel
One of my highlights from the past year has to be scooping “Best Cinematic Image” at the 17th Waterford International Film Festival in 2023 for one of my stills captured on set for “The Light Within”. Now not only is the image used as the poster to promote the film, it is also being widely used to promote the film festival.

TACIT short film
Daniel is an extremely talented photographer and we were so glad to have him on our shoot. He captured everything and also had great awareness to capture clean plate shots for us to use in creating the poster. The one thing we believe that makes a great BTS and stills photographer is to go unnoticed and capture candid photos, and Daniel does exactly that! We highly recommend him:)
Professional, discrete and intuitive
I have hired Daniel to do BTS on numerois projects and was absolutely delighted with his professionalism and the quality of his work.
He was extremely discrete, and really caught the energy and character of the films. I will definitely hire him again.
Review
Absolutely amazing. I genuinely can’t recommend him more. Highly professional. Very easy to work with. The still he produces during production are amazing. In both cases working with him. He made a poster for both of my shorts we worked on aswell as producing amazing stills.
Excellent, highly skilled photographer
Daniel is an incredible photographer. He has done behind the scenes pictures for two films I’ve worked on, and I’ve loved the results. He’s also a lovely guy and great to work with. Would highly recommend.
