About Me
Hi,
​
I'm Chris G Smith. I have been involved with photography from the age of 15, learning as much as I could and mastering my techniques.
​
Over the years, I've photographed wildlife, landscapes and many other things, eventually moving into Weddings, Events and Product shoots to mention but a few.
​
More recently, I have completed a Masters Degree in Photography and now love to involve myself in photographic projects. My passion project for the last 2 years has been the Enthusing Young Minds project which you can look at on the projects page.
​
Having recently re-located to the Shetland Isles, I aim to re-launch Enthusing Young Minds to provide as many young people with the opportunity to try using photography to express themselves using the analogue medium.
​
Feel free to contact me with ideas or thoughts, I love to hear from you. Most of my gallery images are also available for sale in a variety of formats which will soon also be added to the online shop.

She takes way too many photos of me doing what I love, but I do love to see all the different locations we end up exploring to be able to create these photos and memories.
