I'm Chris Cavallo & I am the voice and vision behind Salt AND Light Photography. Be sure to ask about why I chose this name for my business!

I am a mom, a wife & am active in my church & community. My hubby and I have been married for 11 years. Together, we have a handsome ten-year-old son. Being a wife and mother, I know the importance of precious time. It is the one thing we must cherish most because we can never revisit it -- except through photos.

I became a photographer through serendipity. While running a small gourmet food business, I borrowed a digital camera & instantly became a shutterbug. The creative in me came out in full force. I bought a point-and-shoot, then quickly realized I needed an SLR. That was 18 years ago! I photographed everything & became hooked on the effects of HDR with landscapes, rusty cars & abandoned buildings. I love being able to bring out details & colors through lighting & editing.

My husband gets the credit for giving me the courage to turn my love & passion for photography into what is now a full-time business. He encouraged me to become a professional portrait photographer before I thought I was ready. I am thankful he helped me jump off that cliff. I continue to push myself in all types of photography which puts me in a place to never stop learning.

I love meeting new clients who often become friends. I may be a proud small business owner, but my most important roles are mother and wife.
