About Chris
After suffering a traumatic brain injury (TBI) in October of 2013, I was introduced to photography as a form of art therapy. And what initially started as a tool for healing quickly became my passion.
 In a very short time, photography has become an invaluable part of my life. It is through this medium that I can share with others how I interpret the world around me. It allows me to express what I am seeing, feeling and experiencing.

Wildlife
I have been blessed with amazing wildlife encounters throughout my life.  These are a few that I’ve experienced since my accident.
Landscapes
More often than not I find myself pulled towards landscape photography. I get lost in the lines, shapes, patterns and textures that often present themselves when I am exploring Wild Places.

Portraits
This is a new photographic endeavor for me, but one that I’m incredibly excited about. Especially as it relates to my new project: Portraits From the Parks.

America’s Wild Places
On October 25th, 2019 my partner Nathalie and I will be embarking on a 5-year photographic journey through America’s National Parks.  Spending 3-4 weeks exploring and photographing the seldom seen backcountry of each park.

Spring in The Valley
Each spring since 2016 I’ve been fortunate to spend 3-4 weeks exploring and photographing Yosemite Valley. This time of wilderness and art therapy led to the creation of my first portfolio of work. And one that I plan to continue to grow!

Portraits From the Parks
As we explore the National Parks, I will be interviewing and photographing indigenous people and other individuals who have committed their lives to working in and protecting these Wild Places.
