Bio of Christopher Nejman
"As a child I can remember playing with my mother's twin lens reflex camera under her sewing machine listening to the
hum of the old Singer as she made dresses for the baby Jesus statue."
Chris Nejman
In 1981, Chris started freelancing in photography. By 1983, he had opened his first photography studio in Erie, Pennsylvania.
In 1988, he closed the studio and relocated to Florida where he continued photography and then began to sew for his
home.
In 1995, Chris started to teach sewing out of his sewing studio in Florida. His love of "putting things together"
created a large local client base. He then began designing for his client's and continued to teach.
And now, after
many years of private designing for client's, he has ventured out designing pillows, handbags, garments and accessories
for the whole world!
Today, this incredible website reaches millions of people around the world who have enjoyed his
creations! Christopher's busy schedule has him on the road teaching, doing television appearances, writing his books and
creating new designs constantly! His style and technique are always changing.
As a photographer, musical composer,
author, fiber artist and hair designer, Chris has a diverse circle of talent! You will never catch him sitting still!
Christopher always tells everyone; "There aren't enough years in a human life to do everything I want to do, I'll have
to come back again!"
His employees, students and business associates are like family. He instills good old fashioned
beliefs; hard working, determination and a good foundation that consists of honest morals, values and stability in life. "Focus
on your goals " is what Christopher teaches in his classes. "Nothing in life is beyond your reach if you have the desire
to learn. Take pride in yourself and what you do. Always dream and dream BIG! "
Something you will always hear
Chris say;
"Never forget the people who believed, helped and stuck by you through thick and thin. Take those
with you to the top and you will always be successful.
Opportunists will end up failing in life, honest value and
moral minded people build a stronger wall together, and will never be alone!"
