Chris Burkard, Outdoor and sports photographer:
Chris Burkard became known for his epic surfing photo’s at age 19, where he worked in his hometown of California. Living in his car he would photograph surfers during the day and try and make a sale on the beach to the athletes that same afternoon. Chris is 31 years of age and a creative entrepreneur, he worked as an intern during 2006 for surfing magazines and he got educated on the workings of editorial publication. The outdoors was what he enjoyed and decided to explore the cold, open spaces of Iceland, Canada and Alaska. Incredible stories were told and captured in these places that helped him to build a career.
To build a career was not easy and he decided to look beyond editorial
