The easiest way to do this is post-processing as IsaoShi has alluded to. Photoshop comes with three default lens flares.
Some 3D programs also incorporate lens flares into their light settings, so that if a light is pointed at a camera, it will cause a flare. Lightwave is one such example. Poser, unfortunately does not have a built-in lens flare function.
My personal choice for lens flares is the Knoll Light Factory plugin for Adobe After Effects. This gives a lot of customization for lens flares but it is rather pricey.
