CHRISTIAN KAYE

“My interest in photography stemmed from nearsightedness. While not wearing glasses, I began exploring my new “out-of-focus” world. I was enamored by objects within my 1 foot visual field, like the nonsensical patterns on a bed-spread. I imagined faces, elaborate scenes and objects out of the randomness upon waking up. Other times I looked afar to such items as a poster of Jimi Hendrix that hung on my bedroom wall. Although my brain had catalogued an image of Jimi with his fender guitar, my blurred vision reconfigured it from the mesh of lines and colors to form a new masterpiece. Nearsightedness granted me an intimate view into a world which only I was privileged to see.”

Christian graduated from The University of Delaware with a BFA in Photography. He began shooting professionally and assisting several talented studio and location photographers while earning his degree. These work experiences allowed Christian to learn tried and true studio and location lighting techniques, which he used to develop a style of his own. Christian Kaye Photography is now based in Austin, Texas.

Christian’s client list includes advertising & design agencies, businesses, publications, museums, artists, musicians
