Kris Krüg is a fashion and editorial photographer based
in Vancouver, and founder of the photography studio Static
Photography. Constantly challenging himself by shooting diverse
subjects from emerging rock bands to dot com execs, Kris uses
his engaging personality to break down the barriers between lens
and subject. He treats each person with a gentle hand, allowing
the subject to comfortably express themselves with a level of
otherwise un-coaxable intensity. Combined with a calculating eye
(and a penchant for cross-processing), the result is a capture
of their truest essence - a story of their life in tableau as
unabashed artistic documentation whether the subject is out front
his downtown Eastside apartment, a fashion model, or a farmer
in the back hills of China.
