Founder + Producer + Educator
Allen’s Training & Background:
Allen Luke is our founder and handles all studio design and training consultations.
“I love helping others. Especially when it is through both through a person’s creativity as well as their personal liberation.”
Over the years, and through multiple ventures, he’s learned that one of his greatest skills is to create the structures and frameworks that allow others to succeed.
“Creative expansion requires a balance of the polarities of structure and flow. It’s the key to creativity.”
Bus creating the structures isn’t so simple for everybody. In his decade and a half of photography experience, Allen has constantly been asked “what camera should I buy?” This then led to an eventual increase of various levels of assisting other photographers in selecting equipment and coaching.
“It is through your independence that we all achieve greater interdependence. I help you align to and step into the power of your own creative flow.”
He now provides consulting and education services for photographers in addition to his regular advertising, travel and commercial photography commissions.

Presentation is Part of Positioning
Commercial photography is a necessary ingredient in effective presentation and marketing. We’ve heard people call it “expensive,” yet what is of the highest cost is NOT capturing and presenting yourself and your objectives effectively… it’s an unseen cost.
Every touchpoint with your customers matters and imagery makes all the difference.
Presentation is a Game of Perception Engineering
There’s a standard… an expectation in your customer’s mind that needs to be met. If you meet it, they come forward. If you do not, close down to your messages. For concept-based photography, you need to intentionally craft the image you want to relay. For products, you need to create the correct angle and aesthetic.
This comes down to both competency and capability. And they go hand-in-hand.
All things must work together as a whole, and we teach and coach holistic approaches to commercial photography. It’s part of our conscious philosophy of expansion.
The Power of Polarity
It is only through great STRUCTURE In which CREATIVITY Can FLOW
