Alan Dimmick (born 2 June 1961) is a Scottish photographer living and working in Glasgow.

[7] After a short period spent working at the Mitchell Library[8] and the Southern General Hospital where his father was a neuroscientist,[9] Dimmick moved into a flat with rock band Del Amitri, which is where his work of documenting the art and music scene began.

[18][19] The exhibition was followed by the publication of Alan Dimmick Photographs 1977–2017, with a launch event hosted by Timorous Beasties.

[23][24][25] In the same year, there was also a display of his work at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital as part of an NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde project to "animate public spaces.

[27] Dimmick describes his composition style as "instinctive," but has cited as early influences Oscar Marzaroli's black-and-white portraits of Joan Eardley in her studio and Roger Mayne's pictures of post-war, working-class Londoners.
