Creating
with
heart &
precision

I pour my heart into every design, striving to create something truly special. Collaborating with others inspires me, and I value each person to the process.

I like to believe I excel in creativity, but the trade-off is that learning languages doesn’t come as easily to me. So, please forgive me if my Dutch is still a work in progress.

Hi, I’m Chris. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been drawn to creativity, always drawing and enjoying art classes most of all. At 14, I bought my first camera, and that spark led me to study design and photography. They have been at the heart of my professional journey ever since. Originally an Englishman (you might have guessed), I moved to Bruges, Belgium, for love 17 years ago. I'm happily settled here with my own little family.

As I’ve watched my industry evolve, my versatility and love for learning have helped me grow and adapt, all while staying true to my passion for creating meaningful, beautiful work. Oh, and my brilliant -slightly sarcastic- English humour? You get that on top, completely free of charge.

We are all connected, and through our work, we create meaningful impact together.

I believe in doing my part to care for the world and its people, which is why I have a soft spot for working with organisations and individuals who strive to make a positive impact. Whether it’s eco-friendly initiatives, conscious entrepreneurs, NGO's, or groups with strong values, I’m passionate about supporting meaningful causes.

If you or someone you know could use my help, I’d love to chat and explore how we can give back to the community together. For my personal projects, I aim to create work that not only inspires but also contributes to a better world.
