Let me just say that Christine was absolutely amazing! I was a bride on a budget, and I was able to book her Cyber Monday deal without sacrificing quality. I would definitely sugge...
st you request her portfolio as the photos on the knot do not do the photos justice. My husband and I just wanted bright elegant photos to remember the day and we got exactly what we wanted. She's very nice and accommodating but can also get the bridal party in line to keep the process moving. I would definitely hire her again for other life events.
Chris is amazing both as a person and as a photographer. You can tell she is truly passionate about what she does. She made sure everyone looked their best in the pictures and that...
too very efficiently! She was always on time. She even helped carry my heavy dress with me when I was struggling to walk. She uploaded all our pictures in about 2-3 weeks, all edited and ready.
Would definitely book for another event in the future and recommend her for the same!
My husband Yash and I got married in February 2023 and Chris Pat was a big part of what made our wedding day go smoothly and happily. She was so friendly and helpful, both leading ...
up to the wedding and on the wedding day itself. We had a lot of different groups with whom we wanted specific photos, and we weren't the most organized - but Chris was very patient with us and made sure that we got everything that we wanted. We felt confident in her hands that everything would come out great, and it did - from the lighting, to the different poses she suggested, to getting certain angles and aspects of the ambience just right, Chris was a true professional and a very talented photographer. Her services were also quite affordable, which we appreciated given all of the costs that add up when planning a wedding. We highly recommend Chris Pat, for your wedding or any other special event!
Christine is the best by far, very detailed and attentive! She photographed my husband and I after our wedding day in our wedding attire due to our original photographer just didn'...

d turn out. She was informative and was able to keep our large wedding party group contained. Even when my 18 month old was having it she managed to get amazing photos. So thankful we chose her to capture our day and all our future family photos! Thank you 😊
We had a photo session with cpat last weekend. She is such a sweet & wonderful person all around. We met her for the first time & felt like we had known her forever. She took some ...
pretty amazing pictures. She showed us some on her camera. But non edited so we are anxiously awaiting to see them. But I have no doubt that they will turn out amazing. And we will have these memories with us forever thanks to her. I could never thank her enough for taking the time out of her day to Capture such beautiful memories. And I really had wished I found her 3 years ago for our wedding because she's not a 5 shes a 10! And Id give her that if I could. Thanks again!
An absolutely amazing photographer. Couldn't have been happier with every bit of the process.
Beautiful photos! Easy to work with!

yself and my husband. She has taken some of our most treasured moments and turned them into lasting memories with her photos. We can't thank her enough for all that she has done throughout the years.
I can't say enough great things about Chris! I first met Chris when she was the photographer at my brothers wedding, not only did the wedding photos come out incredible but she was...
so professional and helpful through the entire day. Soon after the wedding I asked her if she could do a family shoot for me. My husband and I have 3 kids ages 3 1/2 and under so I was nervous because if one of them is tired or just not into it the whole shoot could be a waste. She immediately got on their level and got the most beautiful photos! She didn't stop until I got every picture I wanted of them. We did a shoot in a Apple orchard (which was Chris' idea and I loved it) so we had to do a decent amount of walking and she helped my huband and I carrying the kids and the diaper bag car seat etc all around. The pictures came out better than I imagined and the best part are her prices are some of the most reasonable I've seen! Next time you are in the market for a photographer for any special occasion Chris is your girl!
I highly recomend Photos By Cpat..... Christine is such an amazing photographer and always catches those perfect moments..... Her prices are extremely reasonable, soooo easy to wor...
k with and truly works for YOU and does an exceptional job to capture EXACTLY the photos that you are looking for. Even some you never thought would be possible. She is flexible and willing to do whatever it takes to make 100% sure her customers are happy. Trust me, you will NOT be disappointed with Christine from Photos By Cpat, and I admit, I am a perfectionist.... and let me tell you, SHE truly delivered.... Beyond my high expectations. BEST decision I have ever made for my photographer! She is amazing and truly made my day extra special, as I am able to re-live every moment, as I now have the BEST wedding pictures, I have ever seen! Easiest decision ever, to choose Photos by Cpat as my photographer.... I would never trust anyone else, after seeing her amazing work... Thank you Christine! I will be calling her again for our family shots soon! NO DOUBT! ❤📸📷❤
Photos by Cpat are creative, unique, & crisp. She really does a great job on all types of photoshoots and is always so pleasant to work with!
Our photos were absolutely breathtaking. Fun, creative, and totally captured not only our most special day, but highlighted who we are as a couple. I can't imagine how our day woul...
d have been without her! Love love love!
Chris did an incredible job with my wedding and several other projects. Print, reasonable, high quality, & quick turn around. Highly recommended!
Chris was the most amazing photographer I have ever worked with/seen! I guess you could say I 'am very picky when it comes to having things perfect, and Chris went above and beyond...
my expectations. She captured every important moment of that day for us. I especially want to thank Chris for capturing the moments of me and my father dancing. My father recently just passed, and before my wedding we never really had any photos together. Thank you Chris for giving me a photo of my dad that I can forever hold on to!
I can not say enough good things about Photos by Cpat. We had a challenging wedding, with a newborn and older children as well as aging parents. She was on top of everything, captu...
ring moments that I didn't even know happened as I was trying to be attentive to every guest. The posed photos were absolutely amazing, as well as the candid shots she was able to get of everything going on. From our first dance as husband and wife, to our daughters dancing with their father, she was able to photograph not only moments, but feelings. When you see my husband in his CVMA vest hugging his father, you not only see that, but you see their love. I honestly do not remember every detail of our day as it was whirlwind, but I have a treasure trove of photos to look upon and know that everything was in its place and Chris was able to capture it all flawlessly.
Every bride & groom wonder if they hired the right photographer for their wedding. We can honestly say that having Chris as our photographer was the *best* decision we made. From b...
eginning to end, she was on top of every aspect. She was professional, creative, and fun to work with! All of our guests complemented how professional she was. She found a way to capture moments we never expected. Our photos were amazing. They gave us chills. There aren't enough words that can describe the gratitude we have for cpatphotos. You made our day more magical than we could've dreamed of. You took care of the details and let us enjoy our day. Thank you!
No matter what I put here, it will not be able to express my gratitude to this woman. Not only was she patient, kind, and calm, but she helped me to be the same. Chris went above a...
nd beyond in the bridal suite by helping me into my dress and lacing up the back of it. The entire night, when my head was spinning, she would pop up at all the important moments ready to capture it. I absolutely can't wait to see my photos, but by performance alone, I recommend her. I know already that when we start our family, I want her for every special moment.
Chris was amazing. From the engagement photos to the ceremony and reception everything turned out amazing. She truly is an artist when it comes to photos. We highly recommend he...

orrespondence leading up to our big day. Not only did she show up right on time, she got right to work and had no qualms about working around all the craziness. She took charge and got tons incredible shots. Also, it isn't even a month out and she has already gotten me a lot of finished photos (all of which I am thrilled with). She worked so well with everyone from the wedding party to all our guests. I would recommend her to anyone!
I would like to thank Photos by Cpat for the level of professionalism shown while photographing my wedding. I got married on October 11th on Jacksonville beach. She was on time and...
when I showed up to the event freaking out, she offered to help. It was very hot outside and I was sweating profusely: she not only provided a towel when we were outside and never complained, but also brought me a cold rag when we moved inside for the reception. Little things like that makes such the difference when your are a bride at your wedding. She took a lot of pictures and had us pose in a variety of ways and with several different family members and friends. There were a couple other issues that she handled very gracefully during the reception. I have not seen my pictures yet but somehow I know they will display the same level of excellence that she displayed at my wedding/reception. Thank you so much Photos by Cpat and I would absolutely recommend her as your wedding photographer!!! I will update my review when I receive my photos!!
We LOVE our photos! Chris had wonderful ideas and captured our Big Day beautifully.
Let me start off by saying, I LOVED Chris, my photographer. I felt like she was more excited to come and shoot my wedding than some of my guests were to attend! She stepped in when...
my my mother had a Momzilla moment...and kind of saved the morning. She was flexible, pleasant, unobtrusive, and EVERYWHERE. Everything you could ask for in a photgrapher on the day of. My only* wish (which I'm sure is that of every couple out there), was to have my pictures sooner. Tomorrow will make 4 weeks and short of a few pics posted online, we're still waiting for our shots. I will say that I did not confirm with her how long it takes on average to get them, so my expectations may be too high(?). Signed, Eagerly Awaiting Pics So I Can Make And Mail My Thank-You Cards
We were very happy with our photographer Chris Paterson! She did an amazing job from the start! She was a pleasure to work with!
She was very easy to talk to and get along with....
Her persona is amazing. She is so open to knew photos ideas and we absolutely loved her.
She drove from Deltona area, all the way here in Jacksonville and we never got to meet her in person until the day of the wedding. We were a little nervous because we had never heard of her before. That all went away when we got our first impression of her.
She was always 2 steps ahead of me with taking the photos, I remember asking her if she could take pictures of all the decorations, and she told me that she already had a little while ago.....
She was on time and made sure to capture our special moments as the day went on. I was very happy with her and the photos that she took.
I would highly recommend Chris to be your photographer because she is great to work with and the pictures were amazing!
Words cant even describe how pleased we were with our Photographer, but if i had to choose a few they would be Amazing, Fun, Creative, and helpfull. The Photographer went above and...
beyond not only with the photos but also helping out if there was a problem, I cannot thank her enough for capturing the best day of my live in such a beautiful way.

I have been dealing with vendors all my life with the type of business I do and Chris was a dream to work with. Not only was she extremely professional but I did not have to worry ...
about anything. She was there on time, in fact way ahead of schedule, her contract was precise and simple and she checked in with me every couple of days with any updates or needed information about the ceremony.The pictures were FABULOUS! She listened to everyone at the reception to make sure my son's memories were taken to heart without hesitating or asking me any questions. The fact that we received our photos so promptly (within a week) made us able to relive the memories immediately. I would definitely use her again and AGAIN!
When I was looking for a photographer, everyone I looked at was just eh.. until I came across Photos by Cpat! I didn't want the traditional standard posing in every photo, I wanted...
a lot of candids, and uniqueness, I wanted pictures that made people say "I want that!" and that is what I got with Chris, she did such a fantastic job with our wedding and our Engagement shoot, I was beyond ecstatic when we saw all of the pictures! She was professional and caring, and seemed like she knew what I wanted before I got a chance to tell her. Everyone that has seen our pictures asks who are photographer was...I could not have asked for a better job and will be hiring her for all future photo needs...baby shoot in the future ? ...

orate it in our Photo's. She added that personal touch. We are custom car enthusiasts and when the wedding day came she had gotten our custom vehicles together along with family and friends and took photo's that I could not have even imagined. She Absolutely went above and beyond our expectations. She was not just a photographer on our wedding day but fit in like a long time friend. Communication with her was always fast and easy. Very detailed and very professional in every aspect. Thank you for making our perfect day... Just that much more perfect!!
I am so lucky to have found Chris. She was able to work within our budget and did a fantastic job. Our pictures turned out beautiful. Chris has an amazing eye and is very talented....
Thank you for being our photographer, you did an amazing job! We will treasure the moments you captured for a lifetime:)
