Update. Hires Chris for my mom’s mother’s day picture great job, hired Chris for my engagement photo great job. Now here come my wedding. OMG. With my package it included my engagement photos that we were going to use at as my sign in book for guest. My photos were were ready 2 months before my wedding. About 4 weeks before my wedding my wedding planned asked about the sign in book. We got in contact with Chris and I picked out the photos he said it was a week turn around and he would be out of town for a week no worries. I approved which photos I wanted. The week of my wedding they still were here. My wedding planner called for him to fix it. Chris and my wedding planner got into it. Mind you my wedding planner deals with celebrities, so she knows how to handle business. Chris got upset and sent me a email the day before my wedding saying he would not work with her and called my husband as well. Chris stated he only deals with the bride. I left this issue up to my planner because that is her job to handle the vendors. The day of my wedding is here and I’m just got married and taking pictures. Chris told me get all my family together and said where are your grandparents I was like they aren’t here. And after going back in forth with him, I’m like their are dead. Dude. We take the picture my wedding planner asked do you have a time for me so the bride and groom can do a first look in the reception? He got mad with her again. I said to him Chris that was pretty aggressive. We are now caking the cake and since the cake was fake it was a side we needed to cut on. Omg and once again. He got into it was my wedding planner. She kept her cool the whole time. I even had the venue attention speak on his behavior. After the wedding Chris and my mom had a agreement about seeing the photos first. No problem. And we still needed to do the final payment. No worries he text me while on my honeymoon and I told I will speak with my mom when I get back. I text him every-time he text me. And the ONE time I missed his text because I was at work, which was about another week. I received a nasty message saying I’m going to TRASH ALL YOUR WEDDING PHOTOS. Wait what. Since my parents paid for my wedding my mom stepped in. And OMG Chris was talking crazy to my mother. After a few month. He finally got paid; only for him to block me when I wanted to ask a question about my package. I mean I’m still the client. Honestly he does beautiful work but his attitude! He was very difficult. Mind you I saw him back in 2014 and was soo impressed by his work and him and hired him for other work and never saw that coming with my wedding in 2017. And I had more work for him afterwards because people asked do you know a photographer yup but NOT him.

Chris is AMAZING! We were sold on him when we saw pictures of other weddings he had done, but the images he captured of my Daughter's wedding day were more beautiful than any wedding photos I have ever seen in my life. Chris went the extra mile in making sure every moment of the evening was captured on film. He made sure every guest at the wedding was in numerous pictures and got so many pictures of the Bride and Groom with guests, which you don't normally see. It was a late afternoon wedding, which quickly turned to evening. No matter the light, each shot was perfect and done with such professionalism. Chris is wonderful to work with and made everything seem so effortless. He made sure the after wedding/pre-reception photos were done quickly, but exquisitely, so the Bride and Groom could get to the reception as soon as possible. His shots of the guests dancing are like nothing I have ever seen before! I highly recommend Chris for any event and will be sure to use him for anything I need in the future. Thank you, Chris! We will be forever grateful!

Chris and his team were beyond amazing. From the first time I sat and met with him to the day of the wedding he was phenomenal. We did an engagement shoot and the photos came out so amazing I couldn't wait for the wedding. The day of Chris and his assistant showed up bright and early at 7:00 AM for a 10:00 AM wedding. They walked in and got right to work. The professionalism alone was so rare! They were kind, attentive, and so funny. By the end of the day Chris became like family to us, dancing on the dance floor while he shoots candid photos was awesome! I simply cannot put into words the gratitude we feel toward him. We will have these photos for the rest of our lives and he gets to be a part of that memory. Thank you Chris, we are truly blessed!

Chris was amazing from day one! He has such a fun personality and will work to capture the moment with such passion. We had an amazing time shooting our engagement pictures and the day of the wedding was even more amazing! He was very polite to our guest and captured so many amazing moments we had no idea of! We are very thankful for him and his professional work.
