Jason Flakes (b. 1981) Photographer and Filmmaker
I’ve been creating photos since I was 10 years old, but I’ve been working professionally since 2008. My work is rooted in one simple idea: helping people notice what they often overlook.
Through my lens, everyday moments become extraordinary. I want to invite you to pause, breathe, and really pay attention—to the details, the design, the beauty, and the quiet stories happening all around us. In a world that moves fast, my photography is my way of encouraging a moment of stillness.
There is so much wonder we walk past without ever realizing it. I just want you to see it.
I’m currently based in Columbus, Ohio.
