Chris is awesome. We were looking for a photographer who could really blend in on our big day and capture things candidly. First of all, we knew Chris would be a great fit from the...
first call we had with him - he’s so friendly, genuinely took his time to get to know us, and was super supportive of whatever we wanted out of our pictures. On the day of, Chris was incredible - he fit in so well with our family & friends and was laid back and patient when we needed to make any changes or wrangle folks together for portraits. We cannot wait to see the photographs Chris captured, and feel so grateful that we met Chris.
Though we’re writing this having only seen a few beautiful photos from our practice session with Chris, we’re so glad we hired him to be our wedding photographer. From the very beg...
inning, Chris took the time to get to know us as a couple and listen closely to our vision for our day. He was very responsive to our emails, and through multiple planning sessions, helped guide us through decisions about how we wanted our wedding to be documented. Day-of, Chris helped us feel at ease in our portrait sessions and did a fantastic job contending with our boisterous family and friends in group photos. We highly recommend him!

Chris is AMAZING. He photographed our wedding in June of 2021 and exceeded our expectations in every way. Chris is truly an expert at what he does, and he will go above and beyon...
d to preserve your memories. His experience as a documentary photographer was so evident; this allowed us to authentically enjoy every moment of our wedding weekend, often without noticing that we were even being photographed. He never missed a beat and was there for the most tender and precious moments of our day. We still get goosebumps every single time we look through the photo collection, often noticing something new that we hadn’t seen before.
After our wedding, many of our guests were asking about Chris because of how friendly and personable he was. After looking through our photo collection, several of them commented on how they want to hire him for their future wedding.
Thank you Chris! You are the best.
We HIGHLY recommend Chris!!!
The photos turned out AMAZING!
He has a great personality as a photographer; Chris was patient, funny, kind, and comes with many years of photography...
experience.
I was a little nervous because I have experienced photographers who were bossy, pushy, and way too intense which stressed people out that much more, I did NOT want that on my special day.
The way Chris interacted with my family and wedding party during photos was calm, organized, pleasant, funny, and had these subtle ways of making people look and laugh in photos. He made the experience fun and laid back which is what a wedding day should be!
He was always right there for all the important moments we wanted captured. You can tell he is experienced and knew where and when to be for those awesome once in a life time photos.
Chris also came with compassion. Wedding days are super stressful and he told both my spouse and I several times, “Hey, this is your day, all these people are here for you.” It was a good reminder when the day’s schedule did not go as expected.
We were thrilled with the outcome, we loved our photo’s so much we ordered large prints and put them above our fire place.
Thanks Chris!
