Photographer + Director
Los Angeles–based photographer and director Chris Ozer has built a career capturing the cinematic beauty of real life. His work merges the honesty of everyday moments with the precision and polish of commercial storytelling. Over the past 15 years, Chris has directed and photographed campaigns for Apple, Nike, and The New York Times, crafting imagery that is immersive, human, and timeless.
Specializing in lifestyle, beauty, fashion, travel, and portraiture, Chris brings together natural light, composition, and connection to create visuals that linger. Grounded, collaborative, and instinctively attuned to people, he helps brands tell stories that feel both elevated and real.
When he’s off set, you’ll likely find him traveling with his family — exploring new places and chasing the light that defines his work.
