    Fine Details

    We the Blackwells are AMAZING!

    They traveled far to be at our wedding and showed up ready to capture every important moment and detail we had incorporated into our day. We were valued as people who had a unique story and perspective and those details were captured in the photos taken. 10/10 would recommend and we are hoping to have them shoot all the other upcoming important moments in our lives!

    Made Us Feel so Comfortable and Valued

    Crist made my husband and I feel so comfortable and confident while taking photos. He went out of his way to make our engagement and wedding day shoots fun. Crist responded to every message I sent within a couple hours and captured every important moment on our big day. He was a fantastic communicator with all of our other vendors which helped our evening flow smoothly. Crist was so kind, personable, and approachable on our wedding day that my family still talks about how much they loved him. If your looking for a photographer that not only captures your wedding but adds value to your wedding memories, Crist is your guy.

    Perfection

    Our experience with Crist and Han was fantastic, if I could give them more than 5 stars I would. They made things so easy and comfortable when we were both nervous. Our engagement and wedding photos were fun and they came out beautiful!

    The best photographers we’ve ever experienced!

    Crist and Hannah were absolutely perfect for our wedding! Seriously, if you’re reading this and you’re still on the fence - do it!

    I was quite nervous as neither my husband or I are comfortable with photos, but Crist and Han were wonderful at making us relax, laugh, and have fun. They are very skilled and invested in making your photos exactly what you’ve dreamed of, and they know how to direct you (and encourage some silliness) to capture really emotive moments. They did our wedding and engagement photos, and managed to include everything I wanted in both shoots! They even hiked up a hill and got our dog involved in our engagement shoot to make sure we had the perfect photos. My wedding photos capture not just who, what, and when, but how we actually felt on that day. They made sure we captured everything; from getting ready through the first look and ceremony; detail shots with our handfasting cords, rings, and shoes; and great shots of everyone celebrating at the reception. I was shocked by how many photos they got, and how many I liked myself in (that never happens for me)! They also sent us our photos way ahead of schedule - we had our wedding photos only a couple days after the wedding! Photos are so easy to download, order, and share, that even our grandparents are able to get and print their favorites without assistance.

    Beyond their professional skills, Crist and Han are just fun to be around. We both loved hanging out, and would love to do so again if they ever find themselves in our corner of California.

    Amazing!

    We the Blackwells were amazing from the start! The second we hired them we had our engagement shoot, which happened to be on the HOTTEST day of the summer! But they made it work and Crist and Han made us so comfortable it’s like we knew them for years! We got our previews pretty much days later and then our whole album came within a month. Fast forward to the big wedding day. Crist and Han were so enjoyable to have there, I was sad when they left! They made the best of every situation and they helped out in so many ways (for example, Han bustling my dress)! We got our previews the Monday after our event and THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT! The magic these two have with a camera is spectacular! They will be my go to photographers for any event or milestone I have!!

    Crist and Hannah are THE BEST!

    Choosing Crist and Hannah as our engagement/wedding photographers was one of the best decisions my wife and I ever made throughout our planning process, and it’s one we would repeat again and again. From the start of our relationship with them, they made everything so easy and fun. Deciding on a shooting location for our engagement shoot was fun, and we had a blast meeting them for that. They are so incredibly flexible and accommodating, they really live to make dreams come true. And for a lot of people, that’s so important throughout an event as significant as a wedding. Due to COVID, we did end up experiencing a few postponements of our actual wedding date, and they were so accommodating of that situation as well. When our wedding day did finally arrive, they couldn’t have been a more perfect duo to just blend in and make the experience as fun and memorable as possible. And received all our photos a couple weeks and we can’t get over how incredible they are. Talking about exceeding expectations! We love our photos, we love Crist and Hannah, and we would do the exact same thing if we had it to do over again. Thanks guys!

    Absolutely AMAZING!! We can’t wait to work with them again

    We had the best time with Chris and Hannah!! They made our wedding so special and they really captured every moment in more!! One of our favorite things was our engagement Photo shoot. I’ve never been good at taking photos and Kristin Hannah made me feel so comfortable and we had so much fun with the whole experience, it was really great to get to know them before big day. They were so helpful in helping us lay out a timeline for the wedding day that really helped shape and guide us through the whole thing, we really couldn’t of done it without them we appreciate them so much and can’t wait to work with them again highly recommend them!!!

    The best experience!

    We had the BEST wedding pictures because of these two! Crist and Hannah celebrated us, caught every single detail to we could just enjoy, AND had contagious joy that really made it even more special for us! There’s a totally different energy brought when the bride gets to have a female hyping her up and the groom gets to have another guy there for him — so the duo together was PERFECT for us. They bring their joy as a couple into their work and it makes the entire experience unforgettable.

    11/10 Would HIGHLY Recommend

    Crist and Hannah are a power duo that exceeded all our expectations! They're so enthusiastic, creative, and open to all your photo op ideas. Even members of my family and wedding party kept complimenting how cool they both were and how well they worked together!!

    There was so much emotion captured in their photos--we could literally feel the happiness coming out of the photos or relive the struggle not to cry. It's also so valuable to have a photographer who makes you both feel comfortable being in LOVE in front of them. During the photoshoot of just my husband and me, Crist and Hannah made us feel like it was just the two of us, completely in the moment, while at the same time hyping up all of the amazing shots they were getting and making us feel like we were the best couple they've ever worked with.

    They added so much to our wedding team. We can't thank them enough for being so flexible and for sticking with us through the craziness of Covid-wedding planning.

    Book them now!

    Crist and Hannah made our wedding the BEST it possibly could have been! Planning a wedding during a pandemic is extremely stressful, but they were there with us throughout the date and location changes and planning craziness all with a smile and suggestions on how to make it a really special day, regardless of the fact that our "dream wedding" plans had to change. Okay, and the photos, THE PHOTOS were the most AMAZING photos I've ever seen and totally captured my husband, me, and our family PERFECTLY! Do yourself a favor and book The Blackwells immediately, you will not regret working with them as their personalities are contagious and exactly the type of people you want to work with and be around on your big day!

    Like Family

    Crist & Han were amazing. They were great about communicating with us, and preparing for our eventual wedding day. When we had to cancel our wedding due to COVID, they were extremely flexible and accommodating. As photographers their skills are constantly evolving and growing, and all of the photos we received could be individually framed. When we eventually do our "real" wedding, we will definitely use them again!
