Hi, I'm Mallory. I've been doing photography for about eleven years. I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in degree in Studio Art with a concentration in Photography. Currently, I operate my own business specializing in weddings, fashion, and portraiture. I am responsible for copywriting, advertizing, social media management and public relations. I have experience in coordinating photos from beginning to end, directing photoots on the day of, as well as shooting, culling, and editing. I have extensive knowledge in photo editing and can do anything from basic photo edits, to skin retouching, to photo compilations. I foster working relationships that are B2B, as well as B2C. I have experience working with magazines both as a freelancer and a staff photographer. I have also worked with several modelling agencies as a photographer and a model coordinator. As a model coordinator, I supervised the models to ensure they were meeting their contract requirements, aquired and organized content/materials/documents needed from models, and served as the point of communication between the agency, the models, and clients.

Fourteen years of design. 184 projects delivered here, 1,239 hours logged. I do not hand the design off to a developer. I build it.
What I take on:
• Interactive and animated web (Three.js, WebGL, React, Next.js)
• Data visualization and dashboards people can actually read
• AI app front ends and integrations
• Custom internal tools and small apps
• Design-led site builds where the look is the point
I work best on a specific problem with room to solve it my way. Tell me the outcome you need and the constraints that are real, and I will handle the rest.
Across those 184 jobs, clients tagged the work Committed to Quality 30 times, Collaborative 26, and Clear Communicator.
Message me and I will tell you what I would build first, before you pay anything.

You're Building Something. Are You Sure the Market Wants It?
Most founders and entrepreneurs don't fail because they lack a great idea. They fail because they moved forward without truly understanding their market — who their customers are, what they actually need, and how the competitive landscape is stacked against them.
That's an expensive mistake to make late in the game.
I help startups and growing businesses eliminate that risk. With over 20 years of market research experience across energy, technology, healthcare, and retail, I deliver the customer and market intelligence you need to make confident, data-backed decisions — before you scale, before you invest, and before you launch.
What separates my work from a generic research report:
I don't start with your research questions. I start with your business goals. That means every insight I deliver is framed around your specific context, your competitive position, and the decisions you actually need to make.
What I Do
✓ Market Research & Analysis — Comprehensive market sizing, segmentation, competitive landscape, and growth opportunity identification. Know exactly where you fit, who you're competing against, and where the whitespace is.
✓ Survey Design & Analysis — From questionnaire development through data collection, statistical analysis, and insight generation. Rigorous methodology. Clear, actionable findings.
✓ Customer Personas & Journey Mapping — Deep profiles of your ideal customers: who they are, what drives their decisions, where they get stuck, and how to reach them at the right moment.
✓ Product-Market Fit Validation — Know whether your product solves a problem customers will actually pay to solve — before you spend another dollar on development or marketing.
✓ Competitive Intelligence — Understand your competitors' positioning, gaps, and vulnerabilities so you can differentiate with precision.
My Process
Every engagement starts with a conversation about your goals — not a template. I design research that fits your stage, your budget, and the decisions in front of you. You get professional, client-ready deliverables: reports, visualizations, and strategic recommendations you can act on immediately, or present to investors and stakeholders with confidence.
Proven Results Across 200+ Projects. Clients in 30+ Countries.
✓ For a creative agency seeking pricing strategy guidance: "Christopher did an amazing job. I valued his perspective as a thought partner throughout the project. I was impressed with his attention to detail and his ability to take the initiative. I will be working with him again in the future."
✓ For a legal services firm requiring personas and customer journey maps: "Christopher is a top-notch market researcher in the field. A consummate professional — always thorough, communicative, and responsive. I felt like I was working with a partner and team member, not a consultant. I highly recommend him."
✓ For a healthcare startup requiring market research: "Christopher is fantastic. He was diligent, extremely skilled, and genuinely cared about my project. He went far above and beyond what I expected. A+++"
Who I Work Best With
Founders validating a new product or service concept. Teams preparing for a fundraise or market entry. Growing businesses that need to understand why customers aren't converting — or which segment to go after next.
If you're at a decision point and need clarity, that's exactly where I add the most value.
Let's talk. Message me to schedule a brief, no-obligation consultation. Tell me where you're stuck — I'll tell you how research can get you unstuck.
