I can't say enough good things about Chris and her photography for our wedding day. What a treasure to have found her through another couple. We 100% trusted her with capturing our wedding day and all the special moments that happen. Chris was very prepared, organized and was just so much fun to work with! I love every single one of my wedding photos, and so grateful she was able to capture so many candid moments with our guests! Photos should be printed and displayed and Chris made sure we would have those precious photos to display in our home! the hard part will be choosing which ones to print for our home! Chris is a wonderful and skilled photographer in her detail, vision and professionalism. thank you Chris for giving us these photos to treasure for a lifetime!

I'm a wedding planner who worked with Chris a few weeks ago at a wedding and she was absolutely amazing to work with!! Leading up to the wedding day she was extremely responsive and helpful as we discussed the timeline and details of the day. The day of, she was just as great and was super easy to work with. Her photos are absolutely stunning and I highly recommend if you're looking for a photographer!!

I have always wanted to do a boudoir photo shoot but was a little hesitant! My good friend had Chris as her wedding photographer and did boudoir photos with her as well. After seeing my friend’s boudoir sneak peaks and hearing how much fun she had taking these photos - I knew I had to book a boudoir shoot with Chris, too! Chris had great resources for the boudoir prep guide and expert insights on what outfits/lingerie to pick for the shoot. During the shoot, Chris was an absolute HYPE woman! I felt so confident and sexy - and the photos capture that so beautifully! Chris tells you exactly how to pose so you don’t need to awkwardly come up with them on the spot! The final images are absolutely amazing! If you’re on the fence about doing a boudoir photo shoot - JUST DO IT! And hire Chris - you will be so so glad you took the leap!
Any questions?

My husband and I absolutely adore Chris. She is genuine, caring, kind, bubbly, and an absolute blast to work with. She is so relatable and funny too! Excellent communicator, on time, and on top of everything at all times. She photographed our wedding and in the best way possible. Every detail imagined was captured and we couldn’t have asked for more. Since our wedding in July, 2023, my husband lost his grandmother and having the pictures from our wedding and the moments shared with her are things we will cherish always. We 100% recommend Chris as a photographer to everyone. To me, the personalized connection that she creates with her energy and who she is as a person was really the cherry on top. We cannot wait to work with Chris again in the future for all of our photography needs.

Chris was great to work with! We met her for the first time in person the night of our engagement pictures and she made us feel so comfortable! On our wedding day she made sure to get all the shots we wanted and then some! She was patient with us in many ways and very professional! We have never felt more happy about photos of us! -The Jensens

Chris helped make our wedding day as magical and perfect as it was. She has perfected helping her couples (as well as all vendors involved) in ensuring that the timeline goes smoothly, and no details are spared. We had found out just before our wedding that we were expecting a baby and told Chris, as we knew she'd help us take the sweetest announcement photos, which she did of course. She will be our family's sole photographer moving forward due to her incomparable talent and sweet nature.

Chris is fantastic! I have known I wanted Chris to shoot my wedding for YEARS and she did not disappoint. She is always so organized and helpful. She is so kind and easy going, making the "gauntlet" of family pictures as painless as possible! HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend Chris for ANY of your photography needs!!

Chris is the sweetest human we have ever met! From our engagement session to our wedding day - she was so personable, made us very comfortable, kept us laughing the entire time, and the photos she took were breathtaking! She is very organized, made sure that not a hair was out of place for our photos, and made our wedding day run so smoothly! She was hands down the best decision we could have ever made! I cannot recommend Christina Naselli Photography enough!

Chris is simply the best! From capturing the raw/real moments to making you feel the most comfortable. She is your go to girl to making sure the hair is in place and fixing any clothing that looks out of place. She has captured a couples shoot, engagement, and my wedding and I couldn't imagine anyone else doing it. She is professional, organized and kept me in organized and relaxed on my wedding day. Her editing skills are out of this world and makes you feel beautiful but keeps your true beauty in the photos. I highly recommend Chris for your photography needs!

I cannot stress how good of an idea it was to hire Chris. My husband hired her to surprise me with his proposal at a museum and as soon as we go the images back it was beyond clear we needed her for our wedding. I was planning the event without a coordinator and no experience and Chris helped me through every detail I was stressing about or confused about. She referred me to my makeup artist after months of not being able to find anyone, I emailed her in the middle of the night to restructure the timeline for the entire day and she reworked it with me until I was happy with it and she kept me sane on my wedding day. All of this is to say nothing of the jaw dropping quality of her work. I have never felt more beautiful and my husband and I will be finding any excuse to work with her again.

I would highly recommend Chris Naselli Photography for your boudoir photo shoot! She was fun, energetic and made me feel beyond comfortable. Her poses are tasteful and her editing skills are out of this world! I couldn’t be happier with the results from my shoot with her!

Chris was incredible to work with! She was creative, timely, and made us feel comfortable on our chaotic day. We are so in love with our sneak peaks - we can’t wait to see the rest of the gallery!

Chris was an absolutely amazing photographer to work with. We chose her for our wedding based on her work, but her personality is what sold me to go with her for our August wedding. She is so kind, and helped lead our day with ease. She made us feel comfortable during the meetings, engagement photos, wedding, communication & everything in between.
I am so happy with our wedding photos. I sought out a wedding photographer that enhanced the bright colors we had in our outdoor wedding (ex. Bright blue, orange & yellow). She exceeded all expectations. The photos were stunning and I am obsessed.
In addition to her personality and amazing work, her timeliness was admirable. She had our sneak peak photos back to us within days, and there weren’t just a few, there were over 100! She had our entire gallery back to us one week before her anticipated date. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised and couldn’t stop looking at them all day.
If you are thinking about booking Chris for your engagement/ wedding, the answer is yes, you most definitely should 🖤

Chris was our engagement & wedding photographer for our wedding in august! Not only did she travel 200 miles north, she kept the day moving extremely efficiently. She was incredibly kind, accommodating, & organized. Our day would not have been perfect without her! I highly recommend working with Chris.

Chris was our photographer for our wedding on 07/30/22, and she was HANDS DOWN, the best decision we made for our wedding. She was kind, personable, fun, and efficient and got all of our requested photos and then some. The pictures from our day are absolutely gorgeous; truly no words to describe how much I love them—an absolutely perfect mix of classic poses and genuine moments. I can't stop looking at our wedding album, and the only downside is it's so hard to only pick a few to print and post! Seriously, best photographer ever. We are so grateful for Chris!

Amazing!!!
So fun to work with, and very detail oriented. From our first meeting we hit it off like we had known each other forever!
She was a great advocate and speaking up on the day of the wedding to make things perfect. She even helped offer her vendor preferences and or tips and favorite things she has seen from previous weddings.
The photos are so natural and beautiful and she will make sure to take as many photos as she needs to get the perfect shot!
She can even handle the boys… very well

Chris was our engagement and wedding photographer and I could not be more happy with how everything went and turned out. I am so overwhelmed with how AMAZING all (SO MANY) of our photos are. We have received so many compliments on all of our pictures from family and friends and we owe that all to Chris. She made our wedding day photos so seamless (and so fun) and captured so many moments we will cherish forever. Chris is the best and I could not be more thankful that she was our photographer.

Christina is the absolute best! She made me feel so beautiful and confident during my shoot. She sent me sneak peeks the very next day and they look incredible! I highly recommend Christina!

Chris- you are AMAZING!! We would not have wanted anyone else capturing our Wedding Day! We had a wonderful day with Chris and her second photographer, Forrest- they made our wedding day stress free and FUN! Coming from a few of our wedding party members who are a bit camera shy, Chris and Forrest were interactive, relaxed, and helped everyone feel comfortable and have a good time. I really appreciate Chris' communication and detail from the get-go; when we booked we received a very thorough contract and details questionnaire when we were finalizing our timeline. She answered all our questions and made helpful suggestions, and was very open to the ideas and specific pictures we wanted captured. Come day of the wedding, Chris was very professional, flexible, and personable- her and Forrest have worked together as a team many other times, so they had a very efficient working relationship, and also were super humorous and fun to work with. We also got a gallery of edited sneak peek photos just a few days after our wedding, which was way sooner than I was expecting! Chris sent us a variety of photos with different lighting, locations, and her editing is crisp and clean and true to life- we cannot wait to see our full gallery!! Thank you again Chris and Forrest, we had a wonderful time working with you, and thanks for toughing through the cold and wind with us :) I'll be recommending you to friends and family and my own clients!

We found out about Chris through a friend that had her photograph her wedding. The photo's were so clean and crisp and very well edited. From the time we met Chris, she was amazing. She was very well organized and encouraged communication. She had great ideas and was always there to try something fun and new and if you weren't sure about something she was there to guide you. Chris provided wonderful pre wedding questionnaires to fill out, and welcomed feedback. The day of she did such a great job of coordinating our big families (which is not easy to do). She was so good at picking up on when my husband and I needed a break from photos and took the stress off of us for directing people. She worked so well with our other vendors as well and kept the day flowing. If you are looking for a genuine photographer who loves to capture the personality of the couple, she is your gal!

My husband and I had such a great time working with our wedding photographer! Chris is so professional and so talented. We trusted her from the moment we booked her and she did not disappoint. She was flexible during the whole day even when we had to last minute figure out transportation to our ceremony, her and her second shooter Forrest were rockstars. Our wedding party was comfortable and had so much fun taking pictures even when some blisters started to kick in- they both did a great job helping us stay distracted and from what we've seen from our gallery we are so lucky we went with her!

Chris is absolutely amazing. 10000% hire her. Not only is she crazy talented, but she also is very organized, professional and goes above and beyond to ensure you have the best wedding day. She kept my boys in line (somehow ahaha) and gave us sneak peaks within two days!! I am already obsessed with our pictures and I hope other couples realize what a pleasure it is to work with her! :)

Chris is absolutely amazing, both as a person and as a photographer. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed working with her from the very beginning stages of wedding planning up to and including our wedding day. She made sure to capture ALL of the moments we asked her to, and then so much more!! She made the day fun, comfortable, and filled with excitement! The experience of working with her was great and the work she provides a few weeks later BLEW us away! (My mother-in-law has said many times since our wedding day, "Wow I cannot get over how seamlessly family photos went!")
Overall, I would highly recommend Chris and her team to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding, family, or lifestyle photographer. You will not be disappointed!!
