I’m Chris Wickline, a concert, event, rave, and portrait photographer based in the vibrant city of New Orleans. My journey into photography was preceded by seven years working in Film and TV, four of which I worked in the grip and electrical departments, handling all aspects of lighting. I had the incredible opportunity to contribute to projects like Caddo Lake, Bottoms, and Off Ramp. This experience not only honed my technical skills but also instilled in me a deep appreciation for visual storytelling, which I now channel into my photography.



Since 2022, I’ve embraced a bright, colorful, and energetic style that captures the raw excitement of concerts, raves, and burlesque. There’s something magical about freezing those fleeting moments of energy and connection. My work aims to draw viewers into the atmosphere and invite them to feel the rhythm of the moment.



In addition to concert and event photography, I’ve cultivated a dreamy, ethereal aesthetic for my portrait work. I believe that every portrait tells a story, and I aim to create images that evoke emotion and resonate with the viewer. Whether I’m capturing the excitement of a show or the intimacy of a portrait, my goal is for each image to be a vivid experience, making Star Crush Visual Media a fusion of art and energy.
