Rick Allred has been passionate about photography since 1986, continuously seeking to go beyond the snapshot and capture the essence of each moment. In 1996, he jump-started his digital career by helping launch the digital program at The Workshops. After five enriching years as the head of the photography department at the Hui No’Eau Visual Art Center in Maui, Rick returned to New Mexico to lead The Workshops’ state-of-the-art digital lab. Holding a master’s in fine art from Maine Media College, Rick currently teaches Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop, iPhone, and digital photography. He is dedicated to empowering people to live great lives through creativity. As a patient and generous instructor, he creates a supportive environment where students can not only tackle technology with ease but also break through their creative boundaries.
