dan flake photography is about what every photograper endevours: capturing images and representing them in their own distinctive way to provide a unique perspective on the every day world. my mottto is "visum futurum," meaning "look to the future:" show something never seen before or something seen before in a new way

having been an amateur photographer for over thirty years, i began working as a semi-professional in 2004 by establishing a part-time business in portraitures and portfolios. but like many photographers, my real passion is creating art. i have had other creative outlets over the years in music and writing, but photography is the most satisfying. images communicate both emotionally, like music, and intellectually, like the written word. photography combines the essence of both, and it satisfies my creative desires.

i am a member of the visual art league of lewisville, texas, where i have been recognized several times for my artistic creativity in photographic art. i also received two first place awards by the ntcba (north texas business for culture and the arts) for both black-and-white and color photography. my black-and-white photograph - lever, cog, and spring - earned a spot in an exhibition at northpark center in dallas, texas in september 2007.

based in flower mound, texas, i am centrally located just north of dfw airport; easily accessible to most the dallas/fort worth metroplex..
