Bio

Frustrated by the steep learning curve in other creative arts, I was naturally drawn to photography at a young age. With its instant results, it quickly became my primary outlet for creative expression.

I believe the most powerful artworks transcend subject matter, composition and lighting. They evoke deep emotions and forge an intimate, lasting connection with the viewer.

Fueled by curiosity and a sense of adventure, I aim to create images that invite viewers on a journey, tell a compelling story, and transport them to an unfamiliar place.

I sincerely hope that viewers find meaningful connections when engaging with my work.

When I'm not behind the camera, you’ll likely find me exploring the great outdoors—hiking the mountains of Vermont, tending to my garden, or coaching the next generation of exuberant soccer players.

I'd love to hear from you—whether you have comments, questions, or just want to say 'Hi'

What others are saying about my work

  • — Ed Wedman, Co-Founder of Exhibitions Without Walls

    “It’s not very often that I review a photographer’s work and consistently find myself being taken back to a memory of mine or to an emotion that the image immediately elicits. That is in itself a great talent. His use of contrast, both in black and white as well as color, is well developed and certainly attests to his photographic skill.”

    “I've always thought that the most "successful" images are ones that make ample room for the viewer to add to the story, to participate in it. This, to my way of thinking, is just such an image.

    Thank you Alan for bringing this one to life. “

    “For me it is these tiny moments that are so special, magical, and ephemeral.

    While most marvel at the grand and grotesque the true gift of wonder comes from these moments of utter beauty that are given without fanfare.

    Alan your eye for the sublime simplicity of life is truly inspiring. “

    “Soooo... there are so many people posting amazing work on this site but in all seriousness Alan - very few are "artists" nor do they have distinct work that is so identifiable. You are an artist as is evident in images like this. This is so beautiful!”

    “Beautiful and uplifitng, Alan.You continue to produce fine art works using the camera as a tool without producing what are necessarily identifiable as photographic images at all. Who needs paintbrushes?

    Revisiting this, Alan, it's one of your real gems. The beautiful, gentle colours. That misty, floating, ethereal feel...”
