Christopher Gumm
Christopher originally started taking photos his senior year of high school when he needed an elective course to fill his schedule, and was captivated by the balance of artistic expression and the technical components of capturing light. As an Aerospace Engineer, he brings a technical approach to his processes that allow for a more controlled workflow while also creating an space to explore creatively. Christopher's passions in photography are focused around bending and capturing artificial light along with exploring the outdoors. Once the image is captured, however, the final part of the process is printing the scene to honor the fleeting yet frozen moment in time.
