After decades working as a Marketer and Strategist for design firms, tech companies and providing countless hours of consulting, I have learned a thing or two about how to tell a story. So often photographers and digital artists focus solely on making beautiful images that don't fit the narrative. Like great design, the photograph should seamlessly marry form and function, beauty and story. I have brought this philosophy to my career in photography for the last 10 years. Even if the booking is short, I take the time to understand who I am working with and strive to collaborate to bring out personalities and create a compelling narrative. I live in downtown San Francisco. I surf. I snowboard and I love to travel.

More about Christopher W....

What do you love about your job?

Serendipity is my favorite word. With the push of a button we get to get lucky and capture a fraction of a second that tells a story far greater than we ever intended. The best photographers in the world are rarely the best technically... they are bold, they take risks and they have an eye. Most of all, they put themselves in the position to get lucky!

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

Every type of shoot that I do has one thing in common... FUN. Art is great but with photography we get the opportunity to make mistakes, try new things and see what we get. I can't take myself too seriously and clients appreciate a bit of humility. Models and clients love to collaborate with people they like. People like me.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

Best lifestyle photographer in San Francisco 2011, 2014 and 2015

A fun fact about this photographer

I love to surf big waves despite being a rather crap surfer... you might want to shoot video if you see me at the beach. Just sayin.
