Christopher Belli Photography

of the way he made our day special. He is very organized, multiple calls leading up to the event to prepare, fair pricing, AMAZING photos, quick turn times, professional, positive attitude and fun. You will NOT be disappointed. We just got married on 10/21/2023.

al attention to the small details were some of the many great things about Chris that we wanted for our wedding photos. From the very start of the planning process, Chris has been nothing but fantastic. He is responsive, supportive, organized, and offers his knowledge and expertise while making sure your event is tailored to your specific wants. He reviewed the details and made adjustments as many times as we requested to ensure our day was exactly what we envisioned. Our wedding photos are absolutely GORGEOUS. The quality of his photos are just outstanding. Chris has the perfect photographer eye, where he can see any artistic potential in backgrounds/ poses to make your photos unique. Throughout the day, Chris pays such close attention to every detail (down to the hair strung across my face!) to make sure each photo is perfect. He followed everything he said he would and made sure to capture all of the photos we requested. Chris captured our day perfectly, with a variety of candid and formal photos. He captured a variety of people at our wedding and the details of our big day too. Chris is so communicative and let us know when we'd be receiving our photos after the wedding, and we even received them faster than what he anticipated (which was already crazy fast!) Chris captured memories that we will have, and LOVE to look at, through the years to come. We would highly recommend Christopher Belli Photography to ANY of our friends and family and will certainly be using him again in the years to come. :)

e and show the love and excitement that we had that day. We will have these forever to document our beautiful wedding day!

han 6 people reached out to us to compliment us on our choice in photographer. Incredibly professional while also being friendly and approachable. I truly can't speak highly enough about the entire experience. The pictures are like something out of a fairy tale. Your wedding goes by in an instant and the sheer volume of pictures that Chris takes will help you experience your wedding from a different perspective in the best way. 10/10

to be there. Highly recommend Christopher Belli Photography for your wedding.

ur engagement pictures and contacted him based on our venue's Preferred Vendor List. That ended up being one of the absolute best decisions for our entire wedding. We could tell from the initial start in conversations with Chris that he loves what he does and it meant a lot to him to have everything perfect. He was extremely organized and didn't miss reviewing all the details beforehand, so he knew exactly what to shoot on our wedding day. Anthony & I were blown away by the stunning pictures and attention to detail. Chris and his assistant, Autumn, captured every special moment of our big day and we received such a variety of formal, candid, emotional, and artistic shots. We truly have a treasure chest of memories to always share with each other and loved ones and it's all due to Chris & Autumn! Our guests could not stop raving about the quality of our photos. The turnaround time for our photos was super quick and we only waited 2.5 weeks for all of them, and a week for our sneak peeks. We cannot speak highly enough about Chris's professionalism, artistic skill, promptness, and phenomenal personality. Most importantly, Chris and Autumn were a blast to be around for an entire day and were truly personable and humorous; it was like spending the day with friends we knew forever. Bottomline is you won't be disappointed and should DEFINTELY hire Christopher Belli Photography!

feel comfortable around, which makes getting our pictures taken a lot easier.

is help maintaining our schedule. Chris had a great eye for scenes for photographs, but allowed for our input and was very easy going as myself and my now wife are not the most serious people in the world. I feel that Chris did a nice job capturing who we are and truly seemed excited to be a part of our day. I have no plans of ever needing to hire a wedding photographer again, but would always recommend him to friends and family!

ughout the picture taking process. He really worked his way around the reception capturing moments we will remember forever! We recommend Chris for any event, he was spectacular!!

n everything he says he will do. His expertise and the way he conducts himself makes a very important day that much less stressful. The photos were amazing, the turn around was quicker than promised. Out of every single vendor we worked with Chris was head and shoulders above the rest. He truly understands his craft and I would feel confident recommending him to anyone looking for photography needs.

and Chris made the change of dates simple, he was understanding, cooperative, and most importantly supportive especially with me being 1.5 hrs away from home at Clinicals he just made it work no matter what he adjusted to get that call in, reply to the email, or text! Thank you! Chris listened to every one of our wishes and made it happen we didn’t have the typical wedding we had a very traditional wedding and you could tell he did his homework to make sure that he was there and with us for every moment that should have been captured. I told Chris it was important to us to show our whole wedding as a story to our family in Poland who couldn’t be with us and he made sure to capture everything so our story wasn’t missing any piece or part and for that I cannot give him enough credit and thanks! Thank you is not enough Chris we appreciate you and your hard work!

he day are exquisite! He was unobtrusive yet seemed to capture every special moment. He was absolutely amazing to work with. He definitely goes the extra mile. My daughter lives out of state and they had phone and zoom meetings to go over details. He was accommodating to time zone differences and work schedules to communicate. I honestly would hire him again in a heartbeat! I can’t say enough phenomenal things about him and the service he provided our family on this very special day!

os. Engagement session with Chris was included in our package and was just as great as our wedding day! Our engagement session vibes were very different from our wedding vibes (nature and outdoors vs. elegant and indoors) and Chris nailed both of them! Photo turnaround time was guaranteed in the contract to be a month, but was surprisingly earlier than that, which was great! Chris is very organized and detail-oriented and helpful with any questions I/we had. Very artistic eye and creative shots. So happy we booked with Chris!

eginning, he took the time to get to know us personally and understand what was important to us so that he could capture this during our engagement pictures and wedding day. He always stayed connected with us and was very easy to reach if we had additional questions. Our engagement and wedding pictures turned out amazing! He did an outstanding job at capturing all of the emotions and love throughout the day. Thank you so much Chris!

out with a friend who happened to be taking photos while laughing with us. He got our engagement photos back to us so quickly it was amazing. He worked with us on our schedule for the wedding day and listened to the different photo ideas we had in mind. He made sure my dress, necklace, veil and hair looked perfect in every photo. The second photographer Jim was also amazing and it was a pleasure working with him on our wedding day as well. Chris made sure to capture all of the little moments the morning of the wedding such as all of the notes my husband left for me around my hotel room. He was very easy to work with, very friendly and professional. We decided to add on a private last dance only a couple months before the wedding and Chris was more than willing to stay to capture that private moment. We are so happy that he was willing to stay to capture that moment, the photos are amazing. Even though he was not familiar with the Brighton area he made sure to scope out different locations and talk with other photographers to make sure all of our photos were perfect. He also got our wedding photos back to us very quickly. We are so in love with our photos! All of our guests also said that he was a really great photographer and great person. They have all also said what an awesome job he did on our photos. Thank you for everything Chris, it was an absolute pleasure working with you!

kes it so you have every photo you want and then some. He is up for any photo ideas and made every idea we had come to life! If you want a personalized amazing photographer who wants you to have the perfect day then you need Chris!

polite and patient with me with all my questions and lists. He was so friendly and fun to work with on the wedding day, and he captured all the pictures we wanted. He was organized and communicated well and clearly with us, before the wedding day, during the wedding day and even after with compiling our wedding album. We got our pictures in a timely manner and they all looked great. We would definitely recommend Chris to other couples looking for a wedding photographer.

We're glad we picked you. I still have to figure out how come you could see a strand of hair from afar. I am also glad you and Jim were part of our wedding. Chris, please expand your business to also do a family photoshoot. We would rehire you if ever you do it. I don't know what else to say-- just thank you so much for making our wedding extra memorable because of your shots

was the first and only photographer that was willing to work with my unusual timeline and the only one that gave me a reasonable quote for my shortened wedding. He made me feel confident that we could take all my photos in the time allotted and was super helpful getting me multiple quotes and answering a bunch of questions (my fault, not his). The day of he was professional, easy-going, enthusiastic, and gave just the right amount of direction. I can honestly say that working with Christopher was one of the best parts of our day. Our photos are better than we imagined. I would - and will - recommend Christopher Belli Photography to anyone needing professional photos!

tive, keeping a consistent rapport over the 2+ year planning stages of our COVID-delayed wedding. He was flexible and provided great guidance in picking the perfect time for our fall engagement photo session, and our pictures turned out beautifully! When planning for our wedding day, Chris helped me build an efficient and manageable day-of schedule and took special care to discuss and note my “must-have” photo list. Chris’ attention to detail and communication kept me at ease leading up to our wedding date because I knew photography was going to be the least of my worries. Come my wedding day, my confidence was well-placed! Chris came in came with a calm energy and captured so many beautiful shots of my bridesmaids, moms, flower girl, and I. Across town, Jim got great shots of my husband and his groomsmen as they prepared for the day as well. Throughout the day they both mastered the ability to be in all the right spots for capturing both planned and candid moments. They also managed to keep our families and friends orderly and running on schedule as we did post-ceremony pictures. We felt like Chris was genuinely excited to be there and were so happy that he and Jim were able to capture our special day so beautifully. We are amazed at the quality of work and have received so many compliments on our photos from others as well! We wholeheartedly recommend every bride and groom use Chris Belli Photography and you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Chris!!

ine and planning he did with my daughter and her fiancé, to the actual wedding day...Chris was easy to work with, professional, thorough, and even so kind as we navigated through the pandemic and rescheduled the wedding! The day of the wedding, he was so easy-going and flexible. I was especially impressed with the attention to detail that he and Jim gave to each and every photo! From making sure the bouquets were all being held the same way, and noticing a fly-away hair or sun in the eyes, to fluffing the train...Chris was amazing! And then, once I saw the photos, WOW! Chris and Jim truly captured every detail of the day with such artistry! Photographing the details of the wedding dress, the tuxes and accessories, the flowers, the venue etc etc...the clarity and beauty during the wedding ceremony and the symmetry of the group and family photos...capturing the love and joy of the day and how much fun everyone was having...they did a fabulous job! Thank you for helping to make my daughter’s wedding so special and for giving Jen & Jay, and our family, photos we will treasure for a lifetime!

r special day was captured perfectly, every memory beautifully displayed for years to come. We are so incredibly grateful for the love Chris put into making our day special and the thoughtfulness he put into every photo. Someday, when we have children, we will be so proud to share these wedding photos and reminisce about our perfect day.

to discuss the details. He is extremely thorough. During my wedding day, he made sure my necklace was straightened out, my hair was in place, and directed everyone for how they should pose. He also took many natural photos of me laughing, being myself. My wedding was mixed, half Jordanian and half American. He captured the entire day so perfectly. I cried when I saw my photos. I would highly highly recommend Chris! Not only is he a pleasure to work with, but my photos came out so beautiful, better than I could have ever imagined. I will treasure them for the rest of my life.

elli captured our big day in such a beautiful way. We can’t thank him enough for all of his support and professionalism as we prepared, rescheduled, and, finally, celebrated our wedding, as we had originally planned. We will cherish these photos forever, and every time we look at them and share them with our family and loved ones, we will remember all the feelings, memories, and experiences from this very, special day! :) After this past year and a half of not knowing what was going to happen and having to post-pone our wedding celebration with family and friends (due to COVID), we were so thankful to be able to finally enjoy our big day, the way we had envisioned it. We truly appreciate Chris and all that he had done for us throughout this whole process. Thank you, again, for telling the story of our wedding day with single picture you took, Chris! We will look all of our photos and enjoy them for years to come. If you are looking for an awesome photographer to capture every moment and detail of your wedding and reception, Christopher Belli Photography is the way to go. We definitely go with him again for any photo sessions in the future. Thank you again, Chris! :)

on our engagement photos and we love them. He clearly and concisely communicated everything throughout the process before, during, and after the job. Chris and Jim were both professional, polite, punctual, and personable. I cannot recommend Christopher Belli Photography enough. Beyond gorgeous photos, they are splendid individuals to work with in every way. Simply a delight. 10/10 would recommend.

s in the beginning stages of wedding planning and even more so through the stressful unknowns of COVID. Chris was relaxed and flexible with us as we changed venues to a more intimate setting as well as guiding us during our photos to make sure they looked their best. Even one of my bridesmaids commented how he found a PERFECT spot for my husband and I's photos that she never would have thought to use. He does the research and goes the extra mile. He's a true professional and I would HIGHLY encourage those of you looking for wedding photography to book Christopher Belli.

s well. We will use Chris in the future for all of our photography needs.

dor I absolutely had to rebook because he left an amazing impression the last time I had worked with him. He is personable, loves (and is great at) what he does and shows a genuine interest in your needs/wants for your wedding day. He has by far been my favorite vendor to work with, he makes sure to respond to all when we have e-mail correspondence so I wasn't constantly forwarding e-mails on to my finance like I had to do for other vendors. He was always prompt at responding to e-mails and was more than willing to work with us on any requests we had. We first met with Chris for our engagement shoot and had so much fun working with him at the park he had suggested. Given Covid-19, he was respectful about keeping distance/wearing a mask where necessary and we even had some fun with some mask shots. Chris certainly has an eye for the little details and would make sure I swiped away any hairs in my face or adjusted a necklace prior to taking photos, he even would help us with where to place our hands or how best to sit for a certain photo. The turnaround time for our engagement pictures was crazy fast and we were absolutely blown away by the beauty of our pictures. As the wedding day approached, Chris made sure to set up a call to plan out our day and ensure any picture requests that we might have were written down. We had a live document leading up to the wedding day of any pictures we may want along with a list of all formal shots needed. On the day of the wedding, Chris and his partner for the day, Jim, showed up early and got to work taking pictures and staging photos. He kept us on track and on time the entire day and came prepared with a list of all formal shots we had requested. They were also quick to pivot at any last-minute requests we had. Chris also made sure to get an amazing night shot right before they headed out for the night. Following the wedding Chris kept us updated with timing of photos and what to expect. Even with the wedding, he blew us away with how quickly he provided us the wedding photos and each and every one was absolutely stunning. For this particular event we did not choose to purchase a photo book as it wasn’t in our budget; however, for the last event I did have Chris complete a photo album and the process was super smooth – Chris would draft the initial copy of the book and then I would be able to add comments/notes about possible changes I would like to see. There would be a couple iterations of this process and the end result was absolutely beautiful. If it’s in your budget, I’d highly recommend having Chris creating a photo album for you as well. I can’t say enough good things about Chris – I would continue to hire him again and again if I could. If you’re looking for someone who is going to produce amazing memories of this wonderful time in your life and make sure you have a fun time while doing it, I would definitely recommend you hire Christopher Belli Photography.

ur wedding day. He made sure that everything went smoothly and that we were comfortable the entire time. 10/10!

ons, which we appreciated. He helped put together a timeline which was helpful. What I appreciated most about Chris was his calm demeanor, yet effective, during the planning process and especially the day of the wedding. As a bride, he put me at ease on one of the most stressful days of my life! Everyone in the wedding party loved him, even my parents who are difficult to please ha. The icing on the cake is his work is beautiful!

ighly recommend him.

promptly returned all our calls and emails. He spent as much time with us as we needed, and it never felt rushed. The day of, he kept us on track. Due to snow fall, our outdoor pictures were scraped from the plan, but he made it work with mostly indoor photos and kept them interesting and different. This gave us many choices to choose from. After the wedding, our photos were ready for review by the time we were back from our honeymoon. All the pictures were amazing. They captured our day perfectly. I would highly recommend Chris and his team! Thank you again for your amazing work and kindness during this time!

band sees me. He was so thoughtful throughout. The most amazing pictures came from him crouching behind a bush. He is really paying attention to every part of the environment to get your best shot possible. I would highly recommend him!

him to anyone.

dly personality, while also being professional. He has a great eye for what makes a great photo and always gets the important shots. Thank you so much, Chris, for helping us capture these beautiful memories of our magical day!

ble and likeable. He was communicative throughout the whole process and was timely in answering all of our questions. On the wedding day, he did a wonderful job of guiding us through the whole day and kept everything flowing and on schedule. We gave him a list of pictures that we wanted and he accommodated all of our requests. Our family really loved him too. He is very creative and knew what settings at the venue would be the most beautiful for our pictures. We just got our wedding pictures back today and they are beautiful. We are totally thrilled. I would give Chris the highest recommendation. He is a pleasure to work with!

to us by e-mail and we were never stressed in any way about the photos. The day of, he was wonderful to work with, and my husband and I felt so relaxed and at ease taking photos with Chris (even though we now live in a different state and were not able to take engagement photos first). We never felt posed or fake, and our genuine happiness definitely shows up in the photos -- which are great! Chris was prepared yet also quick to come up with spur-of-the-moment ideas. We couldn't have been happier and definitely recommend him. One more thing I have to mention that might seem small to some people but was major to us: Chris was the only one of our vendors who consistently used "reply all" in sending and responding to e-mails, addressing them and sending them to both my fiancé and me every time. This made a huge difference both in ease of planning (my now-husband had to forward a lot of e-mails to me from other professionals who repeatedly dropped me out of the thread even though we were both equally planning the wedding) and in terms of simple respect of my husband and me as equals and as a team (both in marriage and in planning the wedding). I realize that the other vendors were not consciously trying to slight me, so this is not a knock against them, but I very much appreciated that Chris never once did this! Especially since the photographer winds up being the first person to actually refer to you as husband and wife outside of the ceremony, it's so nice for it to be someone who takes care to be respectful.

n me out of the water! He is so kind and friendly, and makes you comfortable in front of the camera! We couldn’t have asked for a better for a photographer. Even my bridesmaids kept commenting on how great he was! I would HIGHLY recommend! :)

it a win-win. I had numerous comments from guests about his professionalism and charm. Thank you Chris, the visual memories you gifted us are amazing!

. Chris is detailed oriented, responsive and personable. He does amazing work. His pictures speak for themselves, but he is also so friendly and comfortable to be around which is exactly what you want for yourselves and your friends and family! Neither my husband nor myself have ever been photographed before and Chris made it easy and fun for us. We did our engagement session a couple of months before the wedding which really helped to prepare us for photographing on the day of the wedding. Chris was also so knowledgeable about weddings and our venue in general. He went over our timeline with us and really made us feel at ease throughout the whole process. Hands down Chris was our favorite person we worked with that whole year! Look no further this is the photographer you want to work with leading up to your wedding day and especially on your wedding day. Thank you so much Chris! -Kaitlyn & Geoff

e knew that he would deliver what was promised, but he exceeded our expectations. He is a true gentleman, great to work with, and produced fantastic work! We highly recommend him

such a professional and thoughtful photographer for our wedding. Chris was so helpful every step of the way, answering questions and offering valuable insight. He was always available to talk and was efficient in his responses. Chris was so honest and easy to talk to from the moment we met him...I truly trust him. We were able to get comfortable during an engagement session and he made us feel even more sure of our choice in him. Our planning phone call was so detailed and thorough, he truly took the time to get to know us and our vision for the day. The day of my wedding, he was working so hard to make everything perfect...and he did! His second photographer, Jim, was outstanding too. Jim's photography skills and fun personality were enjoyed by all. I am so impressed by Chris, his dedication and beautiful work...I was blown away and teary-eyed when the photos came back after the wedding! He did an amazing job with the editing and the timely return of all of our photos. Planning a wedding and working with vendors can be a stressful process but Chris reassured us through it all and we always knew we were in good hands. Chris truly went above and beyond to make our wedding experience exceptional. We are forever grateful!

he got pictures of the reception (people dancing) The album we ordered from him was very easy to edit online and he is very responsive with any questions. The album itself is beautiful and the pages are very durable and seems like they will hold up for a very long time.

very professional and prepared. Thank you for the beautiful photographs that captured the best day of our lives perfectly!

timeline of the wedding and knew everyone's name. He also had locations picked out prior to the wedding day for pictures. He called me a few days in advance to let me know it might rain on my wedding day and that he had at least three backup plans. This was amazing because I did not have to worry about finding new locations for pictures. I would highly recommend Christopher to anyone who is getting married.
