BIOGRAPHY
Chris O-Ten is an internationally published photographer with a background in music, film, art and fashion.
Inspired by Man Ray, David Bailey and Helmut Newton, his images express his belief in spontaneously capturing the moment and consistently creating inspirational imagery.
Through studying at The Park Street Fashion College in Hull (UK) for 3 years, he focused on the styles of fashion designers Vivienne Westwood and John Richmond. These influences are deeply expressed within his photographic work, giving his images a more rock 'n' roll feel.
He gained distinctions for his studies in Fine Art (2004 - 2006)
