Christopher's Soldier Image Featured In Graphis Promotion

One of Christopher's "Blind Soldier" images is featured in Graphis' new Special Promotion for their 100 Best In Photography 2012 Publication. His series of soldier images, of course, will be in the book. Christopher is honored and thrilled.

Christopher Directs "Sunflowers" Spot For Jewelry Company

While Christopher has had the opportunity to be a director/DP on a number of spots in the last few years, Christopher considers these recent spots for a jewelry company his coming-out party as a director and DP. "SUNFLOWERS," the first of two spots was shot using the Phantom at 1000 fps. To create a more organic sensibility, everything was filmed practically - the acrobats bounced on a trampoline that was camouflaged in the sunflowers, and all the subtle distortions in the film were created with old found glass clamped in front of the lens. In post, we simply reversed the film to get the feeling of someone "floating up into air."

Christopher's Page In New Archive 200 Best Ad Photographers

One of Christopher's images from his Blind Soldier Series was selected to appear in the latest volume of Archive's 200 Best Ad Photographers. Commissioned by Unisource as part of a campaign to bring awareness to the Lakeshore Foundation, a non-profit organization that helps disabled veterans, this image was part of a series of portraits of a soldier who was blinded and scarred in a horrific bomb blast, and who has gone on to become a triathlete and an inspiration to countless disabled veterans - so much so that he was recognized personally by President Obama. It was a moving experience for all involved.
