Hi, I’m Alden

I’m originally from Chicago, where I grew up before joining the U.S. Marine Corps. After finishing my service, I picked up a camera for the first time—what started as a curiosity quickly became a meaningful part of my life and work.

In early 2023, I moved to South Yorkshire to be with my wife, and I’ve been calling the UK home ever since. These days, I split my time between creative work and teaching—I’m now an educator at a college in Doncaster, where I support students in their personal and professional development.

Whether I’m behind the camera or in the classroom, I’m all about telling stories, staying curious, and connecting with people through the work we make.
