About Chris
Welcome to My Site!
I’ve been shooting people since high school, but professionally for 6+ years. When I moved to NYC from my home state Rhode Island in 1998, I came to pursue my dreams of being an actor & model, but after years of being in front of the camera I realized that I wanted to be directing the action, not taking direction.
I started shooting people professionally in 2003, beginning with my friends as guinea pigs, then moving onto offering free headshots, then for $50, then $70, etc. (and after 6 years, my rates have not gone up much!)
In the past couple years, my headshot photography business has grown and succeeded, thanks to my wonderful past clients (now friends!) who scream my name from the tops of trees to their friends, who then tell their friends, who tell their friends, and so on and so forth.
This of all industries is a tough choice with steep competition and a lot of candidates, and in order to survive and thrive, I believe it’s important to have a solid community. I am an open connector/networker, I offer advice/suggestions freely when asked, and I do not believe in over-charging artists for photos! (or websites or reels for that matter!)
Please email me with your Questions, Comments, or Project needs, I can assist you with more than just photography. Please inquire!
Thanks again for visiting my site and look forward to shooting you soon!
