Chris HangSleben
Photographer / Dreamer
My Story
I grew up as a teacher’s son, and was surrounded by creativity, whether it was through art, music, or even writing. Often times, she would push me out of my comfort zone, teaching me to think fast on my feet, and instilling in me the notion that no one is a failure as long as they try.
As a photographer, I spend my time making dreams become a reality, and really enjoy being behind the camera. When I was young, running around with my moms Kodak Disc camera, I was always interested in making what I saw show up on film, but it wasn’t until a good friend asked me to take pictures for his magazine that I caught ‘the bug’.
Whether we’re in the studio, or on location, I’m going to work hard for you as I draw on my experiences and a heavy dose of daydreams to create images for you that you will be proud to be a part of for eternity.
What MY clients say:
“Working with Chris was such a fun experience! He’s an amazing photographer with a great studio set up. He always has so many good ideas for us to work on together. He keeps a lot of projects in mind and is never low on creativity. He also gives great feedback while working, so he helped me better myself as a model. Also, I just had a lot of fun hanging out with him! He made the environment comfortable, professional and fun. If you have any interesting ideas in your brain for a shoot, he’s happy to make it happen. I’ll gladly hire Chris for all of my shoots! Thanks a million for the good times!”
