Allen Cooper (b. 2001, Orange, California) is a photographer based out of Metro-Atlanta, Georgia. He is currently pursuing his BFA in photography at Georgia State University. Allen’s upbringing saw him explore the motion of photography due to his mother’s image-making. 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.
