Hi, I'm Chris
I’ve spent more than 15 years making photographs and helping people feel at home in front of the camera.
I earned my bachelor’s degree in Art and Design from West Virginia State University, then built my photography practice around portraits, collaboration, and creative ideas that feel personal to the people in them.
Over the years, I’ve coached and trained models throughout West Virginia and Ohio—working on posing, expression, movement, and the confidence to try something new. That experience carries into every session, whether you’ve modeled before or this is your first time being photographed.
Direction when you need it.
Room to be yourself
I’ll help shape the concept, give clear direction during the shoot, and pay attention to the small details. You can bring a fully formed idea or arrive with only a feeling you want the images to capture. We’ll build from there together.
A good photo starts with trust.
Let’s enjoy making them.
Good photographs matter, but so does the experience of making them. I like the moments when a pose turns into a laugh, an outfit sparks a new idea, or we try one more frame just to see what happens.
You don’t need to perform confidence for me. Show up with your curiosity; I’ll bring the camera, the direction, and the willingness to make something fun together.
Let's make something that feels like you.
Explore the sessions, then tell me what you're imagining. Questions and early ideas are welcome.
