CHRISTOPHER DERRY PHOTOGRAPHY

I’m a creative photographer living with my family in Leesburg, Virginia, proudly serving Loudoun County and northern VA, including the greater Washington DC area.

My photographic interests are diverse, including event, product and street photography, but I absolutely love shooting portraits and capturing the stories and genuine emotions that can only come from photographing other people. As a part-time working musician, I also love photographing fellow musicians, concerts and documenting behind-the-scenes at their performances.

While only recently launching my public-facing professional photography business, I have been enthusiastically shooting for over 30 years, and I have several years experience working as a professional photo retouch artist. Since 2010, I have shot exclusively for my creative consulting clients, but this is my true passion, so I’m finally putting all my professional efforts into growing this business. Taking a picture is a very small part of producing a great photo. My background in high-end professional photo retouching is an important asset in my toolkit that helps set my images apart.

I do not rely on commercial presets when processing my images, and instead manually edit every one of my photos until I achieve the specific look matching my visual style and brand. This ensures your final images won’t simply be following the latest Instagram fad, or having someone else’s presets applied. You hire me for my eye and my creative vision, and that’s exactly what you’ll get out of each and every photo session.

Photography has been a personal passion of mine for the majority of my life, and I’ve finally taken the leap as a professional behind the lens. I hope you’ll consider me for your photographic needs, and I very much look forward to hearing from you to discuss booking your next photo session.
