Chris is a UK born photographer who made the jump to Canada back in 2016. After studying Graphic Design at Leeds Beckett University and specializing in photography, with influences from renowned snowboard photographer, Dean ‘Blotto’ Gray, Chris made the decision to follow his passion of capturing action sports and focus on snowboarding.
Chris Started his career with being the Head Photographer for Rampworx Skatepark, Liverpool at 17 years old capturing pro riders from skate, BMX and inline who visited the park and attended events. Chris began snowboarding at 13 in Andorra but despite no hills near by in the UK, his desire for snowboarding never went away and is shown in his work.
