My husband and I absolutely loved working with Chris for our wedding photos. Chris was very communicative and helpful through the whole process. Wedding planning and the wedding day in general can be overwhelming, but he was very attentive and had a calming presence. We are beyond grateful for his service and the photos turned out AMAZING!! We love them so much and will highly recommend him to everyone we hear that is getting married. Highly highly recommend for any of your photograph needs. Thanks again, Chris!!

Best Wedding Photographer Experience We Could Have Asked For!!!

We were fortunate to have Chris photograph our wedding, and I can truly say he was nothing short of phenomenal. Chris was responsive, reliable, and had an amazing ability to make us feel comfortable behind the camera. We did an engagement session with him (which he went above and beyond with flexibility for), and we instantly felt relaxed (which is saying a lot for my husband especially as he had never been behind a lens before!!). He had great suggestions of areas where we could take photos in order to get the vision we wanted for both engagement and wedding day photos, and he was also incredibly helpful in suggesting the best locations at certain times of day. After the engagement shoot, Chris continued to go above and beyond on wedding day. He kept everyone on track, brought such a calm energy to the day (which I really needed on such a wild day), and was everywhere we needed him to be throughout the entire day and night! There were several times throughout the night when I was hoping he’d be able to get a picture with us and a guest, and I looked up and he was there and ready instantly! I also have to give a shout out to his amazing skills with sunset photos – he was able to capture some of me and my husband’s favorite photos at sunset that we’ll cherish forever. Chris really went above and beyond for me and my husband, and gave us the most positive experience we ever could have hoped for on our wedding day. I would hire him again in a heartbeat for anything we might need in the future!!

Wedding Day Photographer

Chris did an amazing job of capturing the memories of our wedding day. He went above and beyond to find photo shot locations by arriving early to walk around our venue, and implemented all requests and ideas we gave him. He helped us stick to our timeline, while also capturing all the pictures we hoped for. The photos turned out so beautifully, with so many details captured perfectly. I would request Chris as a wedding photographer to anyone getting married soon!
