Christopher James Hall is a photographer, author, speaker, mentor, and founder of The Narrator’s Lens CIC. His journey began after a period of homelessness and recovery, when a camera—gifted to him through a charity project—became more than just a creative outlet. It became a tool for reconnection, rebuilding, and reaching others. That moment inspired a career devoted to storytelling, social impact, and helping individuals and organisations use lived experience to inform meaningful change.

Christopher has collaborated with over 60 organisations and led more than 20 exhibitions, using photography and structured conversation to capture authentic voices and transform them into actionable insight. His work has informed council reports, service reviews, and community campaigns—always grounded in dignity, honesty, and human connection.

Recipient of the High Sheriff of Hertfordshire Award for his contribution to community wellbeing, Christopher was recently commissioned by the High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire to document volunteering across the county. Through his talks, mentoring, and creative projects, he continues to demonstrate how stories—when told and heard well—can shift perspectives, build empathy, and change lives.
