Travis Lovell received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Photography from Brigham Young University and a Master of Fine Arts degree in photography through Maine Media College. He started teaching photography at Utah Valley University and Brigham Young University as an adjunct in 2003. He is now an associate professor of photography and Department Chair for the Department of Art & Design at Utah Valley University. He leads a program working with other students and faculty to create fine art coffee table books as part of their education. They learn to work as a team, conceptualize an idea, and work an idea through to completion. The majority of the books listed here are a result of that collaboration.
