Chris is a photographer living in the Southern Highlands, NSW. He started his professional career as a photographer and gained experience across a wide range of disciplines.
Over recent years, part time art and photography studies with international mentorship groups introduced Chris to a range of new photographic techniques. These techniques enabled him to express more effectively what he saw in the world around him.
While Chris enjoys many different styles of photography, creating abstract images has been his primary focus for several years.
Of course, every photographer needs an assistant. Billy, a West Highland Terrier, was Chris’s constant companion for over 16 years, and while he never learnt much about photography, he certainly knew how to make Chris laugh every day.

"One of my favourite authors, Keri Hulme, wrote the line:"
“'It's all here, alive and salts and roaring and real. The vast cold ocean and the surf breaking.'”
"Keri expresses in words far better than I can, how the beaches, bays and estuaries of our coastline make me feel."
"My goal for this collection is to convey those emotions visually. To achieve that goal I’ve developed a personal process (over many years of study, research and experimentation) in which I incorporate intentional camera movement as a means to blur the detail in the images and create impressionist and semi abstract styling."
"In my more recent work, I’ve come to realise that much of the magic lies in the detail and I now seek to selectively show some detail within a landscape, the outline of a hill, the lines of ripples in water, resulting in strong lines and compositions that tell the story but ensure that the image is still recognisably grounded in reality."
