    Amazing Photos & Even Better Photographer

    We absolutely love our photos from Chris! He captured every moment of our special day and the photos are incredible - I can't stop looking at them. He also made the time fun! My husband and I aren't used to getting photographed, but Chris kept us smiling and moving and enjoying our time together. He also got us a sneak peak within days of the wedding and the full album in just a couple weeks.

    Chris did our engagement photos, wedding day photos, and our rehearsal dinner. The best one stop shop for all our wedding events!

    Creative, Passionate, Dedicated

    Chris is a beyond talented photographer. He is creative and it shows in all of his photos- all of them so unique. He was able to capture my vision of a high fashion wedding seamlessly and he was so fun to collaborate with- he listens. All of our shots are editorial/ magazine worthy and I could not be happier. Definitely book Chris if you want photographer who is passionate about his work, creative with his shots and dedicated to the art of capturing your wedding!!

    Beautifully Captured Every Moment

    Chris was so helpful from our first conversation. He made recommendations on our timeline based on what photos we wanted to get and was able to accommodate a very last minute add on for a videographer! The photos he took are absolutely breathtaking; I want to frame every single one of them! He helped us loosen up in front of the camera, and all the shots look natural. I can't recommend him enough!

    The best photographer!!

    I found Chris Schmitt because two of my bridesmaids used him for their weddings, and I loved their photos. Chris is an outstanding photographer in every way -- kind, artistic, easy to work with, energetic, passionate, but most importantly SO TALENTED!!! I had a NYE wedding at Casa Del Mar on the beach, and my wedding sneak peek photos are truly insane. Everyone keeps commenting on them and asking who my photographer was. Chris and his wife did the most beautiful job directing us on the wedding day, and he sent my husband and I our photos in a very timely manner, which we so appreciated. Chris was also very organized on the day. We went through our wedding party shots and family shots with lots of time to spare so I could go relax right before my ceremony. Lastly, not only did Chris do our wedding photos, he also shot our engagement photos in Malibu, which are equally as stunning. Hire Chris Schmitt for your big day and you won't regret it!

    Wonderful Work

    Chris was amazing to work with! He was so quick to respond to emails and was always flexible with what I needed on the day of as well as making our album. We love all of our photos and truly have a full day of photos that he captured. Our album is beautiful and tells our wedding day story perfectly! We loved working with Chris and would recommend him 10x over!!

    Beautiful engagement photos!

    My fiancé and I had an engagement photo shoot with Chris on April 10 at the Arboretum in Arcadia, CA. Chris immediately made us feel at ease and comfortable and when giving us direction. We had so much fun during the shoot, and we were amazed at how quickly Chris turned the photos around. They are stunning! We loved the experience and photos so much that we have hired Chris for our wedding day in October. Highly recommend!

    I will never use anyone other than Chris Schmitt Photography for my events, and we do a lot of them! I had to pick one date for this review, but, we use them all throughout the year! The work that they do is amazing and they capture every moment and detail in a unique and creative way that seals the memories for eternity. Chris and his colleagues are professional, easy to work with, and always adored by the guests. I would recommend no other than Chris Schmitt Photography....

    Every time I look at my wedding pictures I have a huge smile on my face. Chris and Andrea managed to capture every beautiful moment we experienced that day. From our nervous anticipation before the first look, to the emotion of the ceremony. To the warmth and love of our friends and family at the reception. These pictures are simply perfect. I am so thankful to have such amazing memories documented in such a perfect way. The love that Chris and Andrea have for photography, and the love they have for each other, shows in every photograph. We're so grateful for these images, we will treasure them always! Chris produces truly exceptional work and I highly recommend him to be your photographer on your special day.

    I was recommend to Chris by a girlfriend of mine who got married a few years back and used Chris for her wedding and absolutely insisted I use him. He was out of my price range by a bit and my husband wasn't looking to spend a lot for photography... after showing him Chris' work he finally gave in and I booked him. After everything I've done with Chris, engagement shoot, boudoir photos, wedding photos, trash the dress photos I've never been happier or wiser in my wedding investment than hiring Chris. He's such a professionala and a true artist at what he does. I highly recommend him to any bride out there!

    Amazing photographer!

    We cant say enough about Chris' work. We love how our engagement and wedding photos came out. Chris and his wife, Andrea captured us and our special day beautifully. Chris was super easy to work with, relaxed and very professional throughout the whole process. Although my husband comes alive in front of the camera, I am a bit camera shy, but Chris and Andrea made me feel comfortable and made it all easy and fun. We have received multiple compliments on how much others love our photos. I highly recommend Chris and would hire him again in a heartbeat!

    Outstanding!

    I can't say enough about Chris and his team. Our plans were impacted and changed significantly for many reasons, but he was incredibly patient and compassionate and determined to make our moment(s) unforgettable. Because of all of the changes our event was a little chaotic, but his team rolled with it and made it fun. . they even captured great shots of several that "hate to be photographed!" I lead with our experience because it was so unexpected from what I had encountered with photographers in the past. . but this was just the bonus to their INCREDIBLE work! We had our photos back right away and with the work of a perfectionist. I was looking for a balance of candid and creative .. and there are just way too many to choose from!
    Chris Schmitt Photography is by far the best out there. I have absolutely no complaints and would recommend them to make your moment unforgettable the way they did ours!

    Beautiful photos!

    Chris and Hana were amazing! They were very organized and on top of everything. Quick at getting good shots and flexible with new additions. Great with direction and adaptive to changing schedules. We have beautiful pictures from our wedding. I would recommend them to any of my friends and family.

    Chris Schmitt Photography was the smartest and easiest choice when it came time to selecting a photographer to capture the magic of our engagement photos and our wedding day. We were beyond happy with the finished product. Chris so effortlessly captured the genuine authenticity of our loving and playful relationship. He is an expert in making his clients feel comfortable and enables them to be their true selves in front of the camera. Our photos from both our engagement and wedding came out better than we could have ever hoped or imagined. We feel so strongly about his professional ability and obviously gifted talent behind the camera that we selected him to capture the next magical moment in our lives, our pregnancy photos. Now that our baby girl has arrived, he continues to document our love story, now a tale of three. I highly recommend Chris for any occasion. He is the best!

    Chris and Dre were one of the easiest vendors we worked with. They said what they did and then did what they said. We're extremely happy with the way our photos turned out on top of the easy communication and follow up. I'd highly recommend working with them.

    Absolute perfection! We could not have asked a better photographer for our wedding. Chris and his wife, Andrea, captured our wedding day perfectly and the pictures were absolutely breathtaking. We were blown away by his talent and artistic eye. From the start, Chris listened to our vision and made sure he captured every moment that was important to us. Even with a somewhat difficult venue, limited time, and a large wedding party, he was able to capture every singe moment with ease and professionalism. He and Andrea made the day super fun day and kept things moving along and never once felt rushed. Our wedding pictures turned out beautiful and we constantly get compliments on them. Working with Chris was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Thank you both for helping make our day so perfect!

    Chris and his wife Andrea were such a wonderful team to have as our photographer for our wedding! We were able to have an engagement photo session with Chris that was apart of our package so that we could meet before the big day which was super helpful! Throughout the wedding day, they were such a positive, happy, and fun team to have! They knew the venue well and where we would get the best photos. Our wedding photos were delivered to us so fast which was amazing because of the anticipation -- most of my friends who have been married had to wait months for their photos so we were lucky to receive them in less than 1 month! Most importantly, the photos were absolutely beautiful!!!! Chris and Andrea did the best job of truly capturing the day...from getting ready, to the ceremony, to the formals, and finally the reception and all our guests. I can't look through the photos without getting a huge smile on my face. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality wedding photographer -- you will not regret it!

    We hired Chris Schmitt to be our wedding photographer and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We got the bride's favorite package and a ton of compliments on our wedding photos and video. He worked really well with Noah Ruderman's team (First Look Films) and they both did an amazing job in capturing our beautiful wedding on photos and film. I cannot thank them enough, and I apologize it took me a while to write this review.

    The 3 top qualities I appreciated about Chris and his team were:

    1) Absolutely gorgeous, world-class photography: Chris has an amazing eye for getting just the right shot/framing, the right lighting/setting, the right expression/feeling on the subjects faces.

    2) Quick delivery time: Chris delivered a sneak-peak within a few days (so you can post on social media ASAP) and our full-set of pictures within 3 weeks of my wedding! I have had friends that waited months and months for their photos.

    3) Easy to work with: Chris was very professional from beginning to end. He was extremely responsive and easy to reach, either by email or phone.

    He has my highest recommendation and I would be happy to work with him again.

    My tip to the bride and groom: agree with Chris on your must-have groups shotlist and designate someone from your family/friends to help gather all the right people and make sure you get every shot. It's difficult for the photographer to know who all your friends and family members are.

    Wonderful company to work with! Creative, fun and just good people. The only problem is, a wedding album should be about 150 photos max and there are so many great photos to pick from. We love our photos!
