Hi, I'm Chris.
... and I take pictures. I am a coffee junkie and a photography addict. I am a hybrid photographer, capturing both photographs and video simultaneously as one person. That sounds like a lot of work, and before you ask, yes it is!
More than that I am a storyteller. I have a passion for photography and cinema, and a degree in photojournalism from the University of Florida. MY mission is to provide you with the highest quality digital media that I can to best tell your story.
I look forward to telling your story.
The Camera
Something magical happens whenever I pick up a camera. I don't really know how to explain it, but the feeling that I get is surreal. The camera is this amazing tool, a master key to life if you will, that opens doors and allows us access to people, places and moments that I would never otherwise see. Often times it takes us places that we could never go without it and somehow legitimizes me and gives a purpose to be there. To document and to tell a story, even if the story is personal and for the photographer's eyes only. I cant even begin to express my gratitude for all of the people that I have met, the places I have gone and the moments that I have witnessed because of my camera and I look forward to telling your story.
