Since the early 1990’s Alan has operated a commercial photography studio in Salt Lake City, and regularly travels throughout the North America on assignment for corporations and magazines.  Over the years Alan’s photography has become increasingly focused on commercial and residential architectural subjects.  In 2001 Alan founded the Association of Independent Architectural Photographers (AIAP) in an effort to use the internet to promote the professional success of independent architectural photographers.  Alan is currently the director of the AIAP.

When he’s not behind the camera, Alan prefers to spend his time with his family.  His time off includes frequent getaways to the wilds of Montana for fly-fishing and RV camping.  Alan is an accomplished musician, and plays a wide variety of musical instruments.  He regularly retreats to his personal recording studio for a break from his busy shooting schedule.
