Daniel Davis Photography » Documentary Photography

His vision is clear. There are many stories to tell - and time is ticking. Daniel has an insatiable appetite for a lot of things: For his craft and perfecting it. For his world and pursuing justice. For life and capturing its beauty, truthfully. And it's that ideal - truth - that binds all of his work together. He believes that an inauthentic image is not really an image at all. It's a myth, a lie. And there's more than enough counterfeit authenticity in the world. Daniel captures truth through photography. Six years ago in a far-off place, this voracity for truth was birthed. Armed with a point-and-shoot camera and a yet-unrealized zeal for photography, Daniel ventured to Africa on a mission trip and began snapping pictures of what he saw. During the trip, his life's passion was unmistakably revealed. He would be a photographer. An education followed - and opportunity. His pursuit of truth and story - and broadcasting them as far and wide as possible - has taken Daniel from wedding chapels to crumbling shacks in every corner of the globe. From India to Central America to Africa to Haiti and back again, he has packed up his gear and followed his passion wherever opportunity has struck. Daniel does not shoot for himself, however. He has a greater purpose, a higher calling than his own renown. He shoots because he was created to do that very thing. His life is not the way it is by some chance happenstance. He takes photos so that others may be moved to action, that a synergy will be created - an unstoppable momentum - that will lead to more action. Not for his own gain, but for a greater cause - the cause of others and ultimately the cause of his Creator. He seeks to show, not only the desperation and need in the world, but also the hope, strength, and love of those people who find themselves in such difficult places. And Daniel will venture out from his home base in Austin, Texas to wherever there's a tale that needs to be relayed, broadcasting truth and transmitting beauty into the world with his camera. If you have a story - a love story, a painful story, a hopeful story - that needs to be told, don't hesitate to contact Daniel. He's ready to go.
