About

Christian Horan

Los Angeles-based photographer Christian Horan's imagery continually sets new standards for visual storytelling on the international travel and cultural stage. Distinguished brand creators in the worlds of hospitality, architecture, design, culture and media call on Christian to deliver photography and motion imagery that reflect their multifaceted needs and stirs their audiences' changing emotions. The result: images collected on the move, on location and in the studio that chronicle environments, experiences and individuals from a perspective as singular as its subject matter.

Alongside brand campaigns, Christian's work consistently appears in travel and lifestyle publications including Departures, Condé Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, in addition to Town & Country, Robb Report and Architectural Digest, to mention a few.
