I’m Daniel Lo, a retired motorsports photographer based in the Chicago area. As a race fan for many years, I began photographing professional motorcycle racing in 2008 shortly after being abruptly laid off from a rather unexciting office job. Armed with a borrowed camera from my brother Ivan and dreams of shooting photos for the racing magazines that littered my home, I spontaneously booked a trip to the next race on the calendar and continued to do so for the next decade. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of photographing MotoGP, World Superbike, MotoAmerica/AMA Superbike, and the Isle of Man TT.

I decided to take an indefinite break from photography in 2020, by which time I had also become a Formula 1 fan. My current focus is Grand Prix Watches, a project I started in 2024 which documents watch partnerships in Formula 1 and MotoGP.
