Turns out “you got this” works for squats and photo shoots. Still gets the same nervous laugh.

Hi, I’m Chris. I’m a photographer and videographer based in Atlanta—born and raised in Georgia, so yes, I will probably say “y’all” during the shoot.

I used to be a fitness coach, which mostly involved convincing people they weren’t as awkward as they felt. Now I do the same thing, just with a camera in my hand. I’ve been shooting for over 8 years, mostly portraits, weddings and travel. I tend to focus on capturing moments that actually feel like you, not like something from a brochure at the dentist’s office.

If you hate being in front of a camera but want something that feels real and relaxed, I got you.
