Who IS cHRIS ?

Chris is a Vienna-based photographer specialised in portraits, sports and evoking mood. Originally from Switzerland, Chris grew up in the bustling city of Bangkok and later lived in Germany, where his passion for photography began.

Chris’s work is defined by its atmosphere: intimate, raw and deeply human. His portraits go beyond capturing faces; they capture states of mind, moments suspended between thought and action. Whether photographing the quiet tension of an athlete before a game, the closeness of lovers under tunnel lights, concert halls thick with smoke and sound, or the hush of a winter road at dusk, his images pull viewers into the scene. These images are shaped by light, silence, and energy — capturing not just what unfolds, but how it lingers.

Through careful attention to light, contrast, texture and detail, Chris creates photographs that feel lived-in rather than constructed. His images do not explain themselves; they invite the viewer to pause, to sense the atmosphere, and to step inside the story unfolding within the frame.

For Chris, photography is not about staging perfection, but about uncovering truth. His style blends cinematic grit with quiet tenderness, capturing moments that linger — long after the noise fades, the crowd disperses, or the shutter clicks.
