Our speaker will be Alan G Montgomery. Alan will share his experience as a commercial photographer, show some of his commercial work and share some of the volunteer work he has have done utilizing his photography. He will speak about getting images out of our computers and into sight. And how volunteering with your photographic skills to improve the world around you will improve your photography.
Alan is a fourth-generation professional photographer and was the owner of Woodallen Photography, a seventy-two-year-old company, in Houston until his retirement in 2017. Alan’s career at Woodallen began in 1967 and he purchased Woodallen Photography in 1973, a year after his grandfather’s death. Alan’s love of photography began with his grandfather, but grew through his love for learning and his desire to help his clients grow their business through his creative photography. He has traveled the world creating images towards this end. Most of what you see in his collection is what Alan has captured through his lens when he has been on a “photographer’s holiday”. His goal is always the same when he creates a photograph. That goal is to keep the viewer in mind. What is the message? Does it denote the right degree of quality, action, background and mood?
Alan and his wife, Jane, are native Houstonians and are lucky enough to have all three of their grown children and families living in the Houston area. Alan leads photography workshops for those wanting to grow their knowledge of photography.
