Chris Honeysett

Chris Honeysett was born and continues to live in San Francisco. He began photographing at the age of three and hasn’t stopped. Moving to a large format camera in 1987 changed the way he photographed. The slow cumbersome equipment allowed for a more meditative approach. The broad landscape was his starting point, slowing minimizing his angle of view over the past decade.Chris has made his living selling his creative photographs since 1987, showing at national recognized art festivals. He has won dozens of awards for his work among them, St, Louis Art Festival, Sausalito, Brookside, Mill Valley, Sun Valley.
