Some Quick Thoughts from Chris Sanders

Artist Series: Jason Middlebrook

Posted on | May 16, 2012 | No Comments

This time I visited Jason Middlebrook up at his house and studio in Upstate New York. Situated along a stream, it’s an idyllic setting for his works inspired by nature. He was working on some pieces for a show as well as more from his “Fungi” series. His daughter came along for our exploration of the area as well.

Artist Series: Tim Davis in the Woods

Posted on | May 3, 2012 | No Comments

I had the pleasure of capturing Fine Art Photographer/Filmmaker/Artist and Teacher Tim Davis on the prowl in the woods in upstate New York for my artists book project. It is always interesting photographing another photographer as they are very aware of what you are shooting. In this situation, Tim was very into this area of woods and roams deep into looking for areas of interest.  He projects his imagery on the wall of his house to inspect it at a large size.

Late Cambrian New Music

Had the pleasure of shooting the band Late Cambrian for their new EP, Social Season.  Here’s some shots from the shoot.  Shot on Location at the Trash Bar in Brooklyn.

Artist Series: Adam Cvijanovic

Posted on | April 23, 2012 | No Comments

As I continue my Artist Series, I visited the studio of Adam Cvijanovic.  He was working a large mural for a show in Europe.  The work was a progression of scenes.  The master mural was the base, then he was adding a second, third, and fourth layer to the piece over time.  With my interest in video as well, I think it would make an interesting time lapse sequence when finished.  Here’s the link to his page at his gallery.

Artist Series: David Humphrey

Posted on | April 16, 2012 | No Comments

Recently photographed David in his space above the crazy Chelsea Market. It’s a very quiet and bright area filled with an assortment of his artwork. He had sculpture in there, of course, his paintings, and a great “creative” zone for his drawings and sketches. So much was going on there but he had a structure to the organization that I think helps him maintain his sanity including his guitar for breaks (he’s also in a band). His work is viewable here.

Music Video: “ND Passerby” by Late Cambrian

Posted on | November 15, 2011 | No Comments


I directed and shot this music video for the band Late Cambrian.  This song is for their debut album, The Last Concert, on Milk It to Deaf Records.  We shot it at a house in Queens that belonged to a friend of the Band.  Many of the friends of the band performed as extras.  The lyrics and the story are based on an extra getting upgrading to a principal after being “discovered”.  Shot all in one day with a hectic pace but everyone was great about it.  Shot all on the Canon 5D mk2.  More of my videos are at www.chris-sanders.com/reel
