Chris Kramer’s eternally fresh yet beguiling face has been a fashion favorite for quite a few years now. A tribute to the broad appeal of his versatility of the interchangeably good-boy/bad-boy looks, his boyishly tough pout is as popular in Europe as it is in America. He has drawn the likes of top photographers, Rudy Hoffman, Bruce Weber, Steven Meisel, Paolo Reversi, Cliff Watts and Mondino. Chis has walked for most of the major designers in all the fashion capitals, and has highly successful and visible campaigns under his belt for Armani Jeans, Polo Jeans, Versus, Gianfranco Ferrare, Alberto Gordiani and Roberto Cavali.

Chis grow up in Salt Lake City, UT in a religious family with disciplining parents, however he has always been associated with rebellious characteristics since at a very young age. He was always the kid in elementary school that was punished for his misbehaviours. Chris took a dramatic turn in Junior High when he developed the interest math and science, as well as the sport of Pinball. His dedication to studies made him graduate from high school a year and a half early, which attributed to his modeling start at the young age of seventeen.

Intially planning to join the army, Chris was scoutted by IMTA (International Modeling and Talent Association) when he drove a friend for modelling tryout. After all the hesitation, Chris was eventually convinced to go to their LA Conference with all the agents.

In LA, Chris did a runway show in front of some judges, and won Male Model of the Year and Most Sought After Male Model at that conference. Through the connection back in Salt Lake, Chris was introduced to a scout from Next Models. He was soon flew out to New York, and his modeling career was officially taken off ever since.

What Chris enjoies the most about modelling is the fashion seasons, along with their parties and unions. He does yoga three days a week and lift weights and box twice a week to stay in shape. When talk about the future plans, Chris would just like to take modeling as far as possible, magbe openning up a yoga studio and doing some painting further down the way.
