About Summit Lakes Media
At Summit Lakes Media, storytelling comes first.
Founded by Chris Harris, Summit Lakes Media was built on more than two decades of experience in broadcast television, post-production, and cinematic storytelling. From national television productions to branded commercial content, every project is approached with the same goal: creating visuals that connect with people and leave a lasting impression.
With a background rooted in high-level editing and color grading for major television networks and production companies, Christopher brings a unique blend of technical precision and creative instinct to every production. What started in the world of broadcast television has evolved into a full-service media company focused on helping brands, businesses, and creators elevate their visual identity.
Summit Lakes Media specializes in:
Commercial and branded video production
Professional editing and cinematic color grading
Real estate photography and video
Licensed aerial drone photography and videography

Creative storytelling for digital and social platforms
Whether working with a local business, national production company, agency, or entrepreneur, the approach is always collaborative, intentional, and quality-driven. Every frame is crafted with purpose — from concept to final delivery.
What sets Summit Lakes Media apart is the combination of broadcast-level experience with a personalized client experience. Clients aren’t passed through a large production pipeline. Instead, they work directly with a creative professional who understands both the art and strategy behind compelling visual media.
The mission is simple: create content that not only looks exceptional, but helps clients grow, connect, and stand out in a crowded digital world.
Based in Tennessee and available for projects throughout the Southeast and beyond.

How I Work
Collaboration first.
Quality always.
I've always believed that the best creative work comes from genuine partnership with the client. You know your brand, your customers, and your goals better than anyone. My job is to translate that into visuals that actually move people.
Every project starts with a real conversation — not a form, not a questionnaire. We talk about what you need, what success looks like, and how to get there together.
Your brief is taken seriously
I come prepared. Every shoot and edit is approached with intention — not improvised on the day and hoped for the best.
The standard is broadcast, always
Twenty years on network television set a bar I still hold myself to, regardless of project size or budget. Your brand deserves that.
Deadlines are commitments
Working in television production taught me that timelines are non-negotiable. I treat your deadlines the same way.
