Some Quick Thoughts from Chris Sanders

In the Heat Newspaper

My next newspaper is out and in the mail. I produced this newspaper as part of my ongoing series of “Themed” newspapers. Typically, the papers contain images that come from my personal photo shoots. I print over 6000 of them and mail them to creatives around the US and Europe. I really enjoy putting them [...]

Personal Project: Tempest

In my still photography work, I typically work with models that can act or actors that will model to convey realistic and natural emotion and scenarios.

Jumping for JWT

Originally, we hoped to shoot in LA after the last shoot but with recent rains the lakes dropped to 52 degrees. … This was a combination of stills and video, including some water footage with a 5D in a housing. P1010489.jpg P1010478.jpg P1010483.jpg

Shooting 8×10

Unlike my fast shooting, bang off several variations in minutes, digital camera, I have to really decide which is the best angle; which is the best shot…. I much prefer to try a unique effect in the field then to wait until I’m back in the office in the dark on the computer.

Shaka Party

I put together this lifestyle shoot with Shaka (the boxer) and his friends…. Sometimes I cast from Craigslist to get a look that is outside the commercial model/actor world.

Rapping with Gorvernall

I did some portraits of a new Rap artist, Gorvernall. We shot him at a great recording studio on 26th Street.  There is also some video of him on my showreel located on my main website. If you would like to see more images from the shoot CLICK HERE.

Travel to Thailand

I don’t usually post too many personal things here but I couldn’t resist launching a few shots from my recent trip to Thailand.  We traveled to Phuket, Krabi, Chiang Mai, and Bangkok. I’ve been there many times for jobs but this is the first time I brought my family.  Here are my kids on an [...]

Swinging at Shaka

We did the shots up in a warehouse gym in Mahopac, New York…. At one point I had him take some shots on the camera and I was afraid I was going to have the eyepiece imbedded in my face!
