Glen Ricks
American Fork, Utah
Using His Scene Machine Since 1986!
In 1986 Glen Ricks M.Photog. Cr., CPP bought his Scene Machine projected background system. And, he still uses it today! There have been several changes over the years - and Glen has kept up with those changes. He still prefers to use slides for creating his background. Winter time is a prime time for projected backgrounds. We tell our clients that “we can photograph you with green trees or fall leaves any time of the year!" Glen especially likes the abstract looks he gets the the system.
One of his photographs was accepted into PPA’s Imaging USA 2017 Loan Collection. It was made using the Scene Machine! (girl in blue) Glen started his studio in 1979 and in 2002 he moved to his current location, his dream studio, a 100+ year old Victorian home on Main Street in American Fork, Utah.
