KRISTOPHER GRUNERT IS GROUNDED, CURIOUS AND INTUITIVE; NATURALLY DRAWN TO BIG PICTURE CINEMATIC PERSPECTIVES. ESPECIALLY INTERESTED IN LIGHT, ENERGY, ARCHITECTURE/ INFRASTRUCTURE, SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, NATURAL RESOURCES, THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT, HUMAN CAPABILITIES, COLLABORATION, HUMAN CONNECTION, BUILDING COMMUNITY WITH GREAT RESPECT FOR HIGH EFFICIENCY AND CREATIVITY ON ALL LEVELS.
MY PASSION FOR PHOTOGRAPHY IS DRIVEN BY A DEEP APPRECIATION FOR HUMAN ACHIEVEMENT AND FASCINATION FOR WHAT IS POSSIBLE. I AM MOVED BY THE ARCHITECTS, ARTISTS, DESIGNERS, ENGINEERS, AND BUILDERS WHO SHAPE THE WORLD AROUND US. MY MISSION IS TO TRANSLATE THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND ASPIRATIONS INTO PHOTOGRAPHS THAT WILL TRANSCEND TIME BY CAPTURING THE ENERGY EXPELLED THROUGHOUT THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION PROCESS. I AM INCREDIBLY PROUD OF MY CLIENTS AS THEY ARE VISIONARY LEADERS WHO ARE CONSTANTLY PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE. I AM GRATEFUL FOR THE OPPORTUNITIES THEY BRING AND THE EXPERIENCES WE SHARE. I WILL DO WHATEVER I CAN TO SEE THEM SUCCEED.
