About

With over 16 years of professional experience, I specialize in elevated portrait photography, serving families, high school seniors, professionals, and engaged couples who value quality and artistry. My work has earned international recognition, including shooting cover photos for two business magazines and being named one of the Top 100 High School Senior Photographers in the world by Senior Year Magazine. Known for a relaxed yet refined approach, I create an environment where clients feel confident, comfortable, and fully themselves, resulting in authentic, timeless imagery. Most of my business comes from repeat clients and referrals, reflecting the lasting relationships and consistent results I deliver. References are available upon request.

Chis did head shots for my employees. He was very professional and my employees enjoyed working with him. He was a pleasure to be around. He was able to do a quick turn around on the photos, which my company was EXTREMELY happy with. This was a last minute project we were willing to execute with his help.
