Christopher Pike is an editorial and commercial photographer with more than 20 years of experience. He specializes in photojournalism, sport, events, portraits, corporate and commercial commissions. He was brought up by Trinidadian parents and grew up in Spain and Canada, where he studied and began his career in photography.
Since 2011 Christopher has been based in the United Arab Emirates, working across the Middle East and Asia for top-tier international media, corporations and governments.
His professional roots are in photojournalism, working in newspaper staff positions and as a stringer and contract photographer. His images have appeared in most major news publications worldwide through his extensive work for agencies such as Bloomberg, Reuters, and Getty Images.
Christopher enjoys the challenge and versatility involved in applying the values and skill set of visual storytelling to his commercial photography work: consistent and creative image craft delivered reliably on extremely tight deadlines on high-value projects for global brands.
