Artist Biography
Dana McMullen received his first Nikon over 35 years ago from his father. It sits on a shelf in his studio, alongside his father’s Canon, and inspires him every day to hone his skills as a photographer and to always appreciate the beauty that surrounds him.Dana has had the good fortune to travel and explore many parts of North America, allowing him to pursue his love of the art of photography and capture some of Mother Nature’s finest offerings. Dana spent 8 years living and working in the U.S. in such places as Southern California and Northern Arizona, before returning home to Canada in 2020 and making Eagle Lake, Ontario his new home base.

Geographic 12 times and in the Arizona Daily Sun, Arizona Highways Magazine & Discovery HD and he’s had images featured on NBC in Los Angeles and Phoenix.
