Chris Jones is a programmer by day, and became inspired to take up amateur photography by the arrival of his two children, who provide an almost endless supply of adorable moments that are nearly impossible to capture! His camera is an iPhone and he is trying very hard to work with its advantages and limitations, instead of getting sucked into the expensive world of DSLR cameras. Chris lives in London with Rike, Jasper, and Niklas.
