ABOUT

CHRIS WARD

Hello I'm Chris, a passionate, innovative, fun and positive guy who just happens to excel at photography. 

Let's take some photos together!

ABOUT ME

Photography for me started at 6 years old with a bright orange film camera from a Burger King giveaway. I was hooked on taking photos right then and there. I still have this passion for photography today.

 

I started my photography career taking photos of outdoor landscapes for my company, ikon Landscaping. With my partner, we designed and built some of the top landscapes around the Waterloo region in Southwestern Ontario. Design and photography go hand in hand. This made a natural progression to photography as a full-time profession. I now have the pleasure of shooting commercial ads, actions sports, memorable weddings, Google Street-view and school portraits.  As an awarded portrait and published action photographer I still get an adrenaline rush every time I go to shoot photos.

​

Feel free to contact me to discuss your needs. I am a professional, flexible, creative and passionate individual who loves the challenge that each new shoot brings.

 

Say Cheese!

- Chris
