Daniel Wakefield

Daniel Wakefield is a photographer, entrepreneur, author, and the founder of Top- Tier Headshots. A former high school science teacher, Daniel pivoted into photography with zero background in sales, business, or marketing—and scaled his business to multiple six figures in record time. Today, he coaches other creatives through the same transformation, using writing, online mentorship, and in-person workshops to teach business acceleration through connection, value creation, and high-impact client experience. He lives with his wife Bethany and their four energetic children, finding time for church, family, and nature photography between coaching calls and studio sessions.
