My Passion

Photography is my passion. People and their stories are my subject matter of choice. I strive to deliver images that wow my subject or client or connect with the viewer and generate the desired emotional response. That feedback is my reward! Moreover, my shoots are as much about the experience as the images and are thus infused with joy, fun, and exitement! I simply love what I do and I go about it with all the joy and enthusiasm I can muster.

I bought my first camera at age seven. It was the first thing I ever bought with my own money. Photography has been a part of my life ever since. Sports, college, girls, marriage, and another career took priority for many years but the digital era renewed my passion. The onset of digital technology allowed me to marry the two halves of my brain once again! I'll never look back and I truly look forward to working with you to deliver exeptional images and an unforgettable experience.

I am an experineced professional photographer. I am competent and proficient at a wide variety of work including commercial and editorial work, fashion and modeling, weddings, and portraiture. While I always attempt to produce image that "wow" the viewer, I also realize that my ability to effectively manage shoots, work with other creative professionals, connect with poeple, hold up under stress and chaos, and ultimately deliver a rewarding and fun experience for my subject or client is equally important most of the time.

My Work

My work is an expression of how I see the world and how I interpret a scene. It has been said that every image is a lie. I attempt to manage that lie to the benefit or my subject or client. Left to my own devices, I will usually attempt to show people at their best -- looking fabulous, full of joy, having fun. Of course, for some of my work, the desired emotional impact is different. Regardless, my style is consistent and could be classified as simulataneously simple and clean yet dynamic and impactful.

If you like my work , please contact me. Hopefully we will connect and find a way to work together. I am always looking for unique challenges and opportunities and simply love meeting others with a shared passion for photography, wheter they be fellow photographers of potential clients!

This blog is intentionally a fusion of my commercial work, my wedding and portraiture work, and my personal work. My photography absolutely permeates every aspect of my daily life. In addition to sharing my images, I hope that this forum will allow me to shed some light on the human side of the equation and yield some insight into the person behind the images. Enjoy and PLEASE share your thoughts and comments.

An Eye into Knoxville Photography

I hope that you have enjoyed our series on photography this past week. Hopefully you have found some great ideas and a photographer for your Knoxville wedding! It is also fun to use the different images I have shared, and twist them into a way that works for you and your wedding day.

If you missed the post yesterday, I talked about doing a photography session after the wedding is over so you can capture more images, and of course get to wear your gorgeous dress again. I also gave some tips about assistants…always check with your photographers if they use an assistant, because the extra camera can help capture more images of your wedding day.

One thing that each photographer I spoke with agreed on is that you need to find a photographer that you are comfortable letting into your life and the wedding planning process, because it really will show in your photographs. You will be working hand in hand with this person (or team) throughout the stages, so make sure that your personalities match and that you are comfortable telling them what you want out of your wedding pictures. This relationship is one you want to cultivate, because you will work with them after your wedding and hopefully continue to use them to capture the moments of your life together as a married couple.

Bryan Allen Photography wants to please the modern bride, a bride that wants it all! Bryan strives to include it all, everything from the “details, story, killer portraits, romance and fashion”.

The “exit picture” is one that every bride must have in her collection. It shows the newlyweds surrounded by those wishing them well in their new journey together. I think that color scheme of this photo fuses “modern and traditional styles”, one of Bryan’s talents.

The detail of the two rings are what stand out to me in this picture. These symbols of the marriage are what show through, while the emotion is captured on the bride’s face.

The color and background in this shot capture the essence of nature and are the perfect frame for this couple.
