CHRIS WIEWIORA

 

Lake Oberon - Tasmania

 
 

Chris is a landscape photographer based in Wollongong, on the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia.

His thirst for adventure, combined with his passion for capturing nature's artistry, leads him to explore the remote corners of Australia and indeed the globe, in search of the perfect frame.

He is driven to capture scenes experienced by very few people. By combining his many loves of hiking, 4WDing, alpine touring and photography, he aims to bring something unique to the photographic community. As a result of this he has developed a keen following of supporters who are eager to experience the world as he see’s it. When he is not out capturing new images, he works as a Civil Engineer.
