Christopher Barrett has been photographing the built environment in stills and motion for the last 20 years. His work has been published worldwide in various books, magazines and websites and his clients range from architects and interior designers to magazines and furniture manufacturers.

When asked about his work, Chris responded “I find this work extremely satisfying in that approaching architecture allows me to make images that are more refined, focused and thoughtful than I think any other subject matter would allow. When I tell people that I make four or maybe five pictures in a day, they think that we shoot dozens and have four or five keepers. Then I tell them that we actually shoot four or five and they’re all keepers, and the reaction always reflects the same amazement... I love that.”
