Fine Art Photographer Alan S. Maltz Teams with Naples, Fla., Tourism Bureau on Journey Through Paradise

Interactive experience, book and fine art project to showcase Florida’s “Paradise Coast” region

Key West, Fla. (February 23, 2011) – Alan S. Maltz and his imagery will be highlighted in an interactive website scheduled to launch this spring. The site will give users their first-ever glimpse of the “Official Fine Art Photographer for the State of Florida” in action as he captures the beauty and magic of Florida’s Paradise Coast region to feature in his next large-format coffee table book, Journey Through Paradise.

The Journey Through Paradise interactive experience allows users to accompany Maltz on a voyage through the themes that personally inspire him. Maltz’s narration creates a mood of discovery, giving users a sense of looking through the lens along with him, and enables visitors to the website to feel the undeniable attraction of the Paradise Coast. The website is sponsored by the Naples, Marco Island, Everglades Convention and Visitors Bureau.

“The power of Alan’s photographic talent will be brought to life through the Journey Through Paradise site,” said Jack Wert, executive director for the Naples, Marco Island, Everglades Convention and Visitors Bureau. “His talent and personal approach to photography, coupled with the stunning nature and majestic wildlife within the Paradise Coast, make this an ideal fit and an innovative way to showcase the destination by engaging visitors to experience the journey for themselves.”

Acclaimed photographer Alan S. Maltz resides near Key West where his fine art is featured in his gallery on Duval Street. His photography of nature, destinations and landscapes throughout the state of Florida has earned him the designation of “Official Wildlife Photographer of Florida” by the Wildlife Foundation of Florida, as well as the distinction of “Official Fine Art Photographer for the State of Florida” by VISIT FLORIDA. Maltz’s art is represented in private, public and corporate collections throughout the world. Among them are: Bank of America Tower at International Place in Miami; Carter Presidential Library in Atlanta; The Ritz-Carlton in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands and Canson in Caen, France. Sixty of his fine art images are on permanent exhibition at the Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers. He is the author of five acclaimed and award-winning photography books and has been featured in regional and national publications including The New Yorker; US Airways magazine; Newsday; Miami Herald; O, The Oprah Magazine; Gulfshore Life and Florida Monthly, among others.

Naples, Marco Island and the western portion of the Everglades make up Southwest Florida's Collier County, also known as The Paradise Coast. Collier is the largest county in the state of Florida by land area, yet more than 80 percent of the vast expanse of land is preserved as park and nature preserve land by federal, state, county, city and private agencies. Naples has been named “America’s Best All-Around Beach” by the Travel Channel and as the “#1 Small Art Town in America” by art critic John Vilani.
