Portfolio’s
The following portfolios represent an insight to some of Chris’ work. They have been categorized in broad strokes to exemplify the three major styles of Chris’ photographic expression.
In today’s era of technological change, Chris emphasizes that the main tool of his craft is his camera and lens, and that all his images are composed and created with those two tools. He does not use AI or software to alter original compositions.
Representational images are single exposures that reveal special moments in time; often highlighted by exceptional lighting or dramatic action. They usually capture the essence of place, person, or time. These images are expressed in traditional ways of photographic capture, yet they require considerable artistic and technical knowledge.
Multiple Perspective Photography refers to a style of image-making which Chris developed in 2016, the evolution of which came about while seeking the path to a new vision for his work.
Multiple Perspective photographs introduce new ways to perceive reality by combining several exposures, with different perspectives of one or more subjects, along with any kind of camera movement. By combining these in any combination, photographers can create unlimited imaginary worlds.
Abstract images are completely non-representational and they do not represent recognizable objects or scenes. They have little or no context. They are comprised of elements of design in and of themselves. They are a representation of both nothing and everything. They just ‘are’.
As Chris moves along his continuum of expression, from Representational to Abstract, his images become more ambiguous and mysterious. They speak more to creative imagination than the imitation of reality.
