The Journey: Late  Starter but persistence rewarded

Chris's journey commenced with coverage of community events being initially published in community media.  The beginning of Chris Seen Photography.

After completion of his Professional Diploma in 2017 Chris sought mentoring to compliment his studies, including workshops with renowned and esteemed nature photographer Steve Parish.  

Since joining his local photography club in 2018 Chris has now attained the level of Master Photographer with Mt Gravatt Photographic Society (MGPS)

It was at MGPS where Chris found his mentor, Gary Silk, and the association continues today, for which Chris is extremely grateful.

Community events expanded to broader community sporting events across South East Queensland with publication across a range of media.

Success at community level then progressed to accreditation for International Level events, including events in Saudi Arabia and China.

When not amongst the action in Sport Chris turns to his original genres of Nature and Wildlife and Travel.

The competitive nature of the subject's events inspired Chris to enter Local and International Photographic Competitions with his entries receiving positive recognition;
