“This is the first time that I have had an opportunity to work with Kris and I can honestly say that I was blown away. Kris understood what we were looking for. Working in a variety of locations of varying light and context he took it to the next level. His photos definitely captured the edginess and mood of our line. What we got were well balanced emotionally charged photos that resonated not only the personalities of our models but a flare and cockiness that was overtly pretentious. Exactly what we were looking for.

Having worked in the apparel industry for the past couple of years I have participated on multiple photoshoots from directing to production and understand when a photographer has nailed it. What I like about his Kris, is not only his ability to shoot great photos but his ability to merge subject, context and environment. It his creative spontaneity for the unexpected that lends to great photography and his interaction with all aspects of his subject and crew involved is second to none. Kris’ passion for photography speaks for itself and is natural extension of his personality. I’m looking forward to our next photoshoot.” – John Chow: Creative Manager: Arson May ‘07

 

"Kris is fabulous. I worked with him on a project and all I can say is that I didn't expect to get all that I did out of one photoshoot. From the first shot to the last, he was professional, co-operative and knew how to get what it was I wanted. His photos are beautiful, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is out looking for some great shots." - Christine Laird - Helen LeFeaux - March '07

 

"I have worked with Kris on multiple fashion shoots featuring my designs and clothing from my store Discollection. Kris' photos capture mood, intimacy and style all in one single moment. I love his use of natural and available light, as well as found locations and settings. It is this freestyle shooting that allows his creativity to control the shoot without the hinderence of the traditional studio. The result of these components are beautiful, edgy fashion photos with the intimacy of portraits.

Simply put, Kris Krug is a natural born photographer. I have had the opportuniy to have been working in the fashion industry for the past 12 years. Having spent time in front and behind the camera lense, has allowed me to work with countless photographers and I believe develop an eye for quality work. It was apparent to me during the first shoot with Kris that the art of photography is in his blood. A gifted induvidual indeed, Kris also has the unique ability to connect with everyone involved on the project including models, stylist, and make-up artsits creating a comfortable and innovative environment for creative collaboration. In a way Kris photos are a reflection of himself...they are, full of depth, vibrant, inclusive, edgy, free, direct and always getting better and better." - Kimberley Nelson: Discollection October, '06

 

"I’ve been fortunate to work with Kris on a few occasions now. Every single time it has been a blast! Its nice showing up to one of Kris’s shoots because I know that he's always prepared and is a real pro. Not to mention I always have a good time! He is good at communicating what he wants and makes his subjects feel comfortable. He is also some one I enjoy doing creative's with... Always up for a challenge or a new idea. All and all a good man to work with. Oh. His photographs.... Speak for themselves. I always have trouble deciding witch ones im gonna use... He really knows how to use the camera and manipulate the light in his favour." - Tamar Ouziel : MUA May, '07

I have had the pleasure to work with Kris on a number of shoots. He always brings a cool and relaxed atmosphere to the set. It's all about creative, collaboration and communication, Kris knows his stuff and makes it happen. A real pro! Thanks Kris!!! - Trevor Brady, June '07
