Bio

Allen Cooper (b. 2001, Orange, California) is a photographer based out of Metro Atlanta, Georgia. He is presently studying at Georgia State University’s BFA program in photography. Allen's photographic environment was initially sparked by his mother's photography and documentation of a facility and wildlife. Photography has always surrounded Allen. Observing his mother documenting family and wildlife, from an early age, the foundation was laid for him to explore portraiture that explores themes of adolescence to adulthood through photographing the environments and moments that he spends with his closest friends.  He has also worked jointly with local Atlanta clothing brands, Amok Kidz, and MotionBoys, to produce look-books for their collections.
