Daniel Rolider was born in December 1995 in Kiryat-Tivon, Israel.

He began his photographic career in 2012, while studying mechanical engineering in high-school, when he had published a photograph in the Children's Eyes on Earth book, a collaboration of IDEA (International Dialogue for Environmental Action) and the Iranian photographer Reza.

His project, Ballad for the Carriage Horse, has been published in PDN Photo Annual 2019 as a winner of the Students category.
