Chris Sharber
Photographer, Filmmaker

Biography:

Chris Sharber is a professional photographer and filmmaker from Evergreen, Colorado. He is married to his best friend, Julie, who is his business partner and is also a talented photographer. They have two wonderful kids, Matthew and Mallory. Chris began photography as a hobby over 25 years ago while serving as a pilot in the US Navy. He took his camera everywhere with him while traveling around the world. After finishing his Navy career, Chris became a pilot for United Airlines and moved to scenic Colorado. The natural beauty of the Rockies reinvigorated Chris' passion for photography and he focused on nature and landscape work. The next phase was taking the hobby to a professional level. Chris and Julie began their commercial wedding and portrait photography business seven years ago.

Chris' passion for using photography for ministry began when he went on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic in 2005. He was moved by the power that images have to connect the hearts of people back home to others around the globe.
