Do not look any further and hire Chris! The photos he captured are amazing. His eye for lighting and capturing the right moments is amazing. He is fun to work with and makes the process easy and fun. Best photographer in the Central Florida area! I could add hundreds of photos. Here are a few of our favorites including one from our engagement session.
Chris is so much fun! He took AMAZING shots and made sure we had scheduled everything to get the perfect lighting. We got our pictures back SUPER fast! I would 100% recommend Chris!

Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Think about it — the older a photo gets, the more it's worth. A photo of your grandparents on their wedding day is priceless. Twenty years from now, your wedding photos will be the same way for your kids, your grandkids, the people who weren't even born yet.
That's what drives me. Not the gear, not the awards (though I'm genuinely grateful for those), but the fact that what I create on your wedding day will still matter in fifty years.
I've been photographing weddings in Orlando and throughout Central Florida for over 15 years. I've shot at the Alfond Inn in Winter Park, Reunion Resort in Kissimmee, Hard Rock Hotel at Universal, Bridlewood Ranch in Clermont, and everywhere in between. I've also packed my bags and traveled for destination weddings — because love doesn't care about zip codes, and neither do I.
My style? I like to blend in. I'm not the photographer barking directions every five minutes. I'd rather be a fly on the wall catching the real moments — the way your dad looks at you when you walk down the aisle, the quiet exhale right before you say I do, the table at the reception where the real laughing is happening.
If that sounds like what you're looking for, I think we're going to get along just fine.
