About

Chris Tzoannou

Chris Tzoannou is a Greek photographer based in Basel, Switzerland. From a young age, he was drawn to photography — experimenting with different equipment and styles. That early curiosity evolved into a deep passion for street photography, where he found his true voice.

Today, Chris captures raw emotions and unscripted moments on the street, revealing the extraordinary hidden inside the ordinary. His spontaneous approach allows him to react instinctively, seizing fleeting moments and transforming them into visual stories. Each frame feels honest, intimate, and alive.

Shaped by cinema and music, his work often resembles stills from films that haven't been made yet — atmospheric, emotional, and open to interpretation.

He believes that travel expands perspective and fuels creative inspiration. For him, photography is about being present — observing, feeling, and preserving real moments in real time.
