Christopher Kennedy is a British music editor who moved to the United States in 1985.[1]
Kennedy spent many years as a music editor, working on over 50 Hollywood feature films in Los Angeles, California.[citation needed] He was nominated for one Emmy Award in 2009, as part of the sound editing team on The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler,[2] and three Golden Reel Sound Awards for “Unfaithful,” “De-Lovely” and “Rameses”,[citation needed] and has collaborated with composer Jan AP Kaczmarek.[3]
Kennedy moved to Bucks County Pennsylvania in 2002 to concentrate on fine art photography. He developed a technique, which he calls Photo Luminism, after noticing an effect created when taking pictures of harbor lights in 2008.[1] Images are created entirely in-camera in a single exposure and with no creative post additions. The abstracted images are hot-printed onto specially treated metal, a process that maximises the appearance of light emanating from within the image, on an entirely flat and mirror-like surface.
Family
Kennedy comes from a family of artists. His great grandfather was T. C. Farrer, a Ruskinian painter, who co-founded the American Pre-Raphaelite movement, called Society for the Advancement of Truth in Art. Kennedy's nephew is painter Damian Elwes and his sister is the interior designer Tessa Kennedy.[citation needed] His cousins, sisters Venetia Epler and Daphne Huntington,[citation needed] were Californian artists whose work is represented in several permanent collections such as the Mary Pickford Collection and the Richard Nixon Library.
