He grew up in a very small suburb of New York City, called... Connecticut. In 2006, hemade the pilgrimage to Mammoth Lakes, California in search of anything other than the icy slopes back east. Intending on only staying for one year, he instead stayed for six — even spending two summers following the snow down to New Zealand. He started capturing images in 2010 simply to document his life as a ski bum. Currently living in Southern California, Chris now shoots lifestyle, travel, and action photography.
