ABOUT
My name is Chris Bader and I work in the Los Angeles area and am available for beyond locations as well. I photograph a variety of subjects. For this, there is a reason…
Someone theorized that if you photograph something beautiful, well, you have a great probability the photo too will be beautiful and you might get labeled a “super photographer”! While I am not sure that is totally accurate, or a true negative, I am comfortable seeking subjects that spur my broader curiosity and peak my interest so I can make imagery that becomes more available and more appealing to a greater audience.
If you are a dancer, perhaps it is a minute movement or just a toe. If you are a surfer, perhaps it is sea spray on your face as you are navigating the ocean you respect so much. What is it in the facial expression of a sportsman/woman that shows their passion and devotion and energy? What is the child thinking behind that “look”? What is it that grabs you and makes you stay in the image? That's the power of an image.
Working with me is fun and easy. We take things in stride. We enjoy the activity and think of it this way, the photos are a bonus! Seriously though, I provide easy to understand direction and scene parameters that lead us to success!
I am available for editorial and commercial assignments tailored to our client's core objectives; including portraiture. I especially enjoy documenting and capturing split second action stills!
I look forward to hearing from you and working on projects and ideas to develop. 310-954-6397, call or text to begin a conversation!
