Built From Passion. Framed by Nature.
Chris Kittler’s photography is shaped by a lifelong connection to sport, movement, and the outdoors. Every image is born from experience—and guided by instinct, light, and terrain.
He doesn’t just shoot outdoor and sports photography—he lives it. A former professional athlete and lifelong explorer, Chris brings a deep personal understanding of movement, effort, and landscape into every frame. His camera doesn’t just follow the action—it anticipates it, lives inside it, and gives it space to breathe.
PHOTOGRAPHY THAT MOVES
From quiet ridgelines at sunrise to the final push on race day, Chris’s work is about more than just beautiful scenery or athletic power. It’s about presence. About the feeling of being out there—where the road disappears and all that’s left is motion, breath, and light.
