Working with Chris on our wedding and engagement photos was a blast. He couldn't be nicer, is always smiling, and gets great shots surprisingly quickly. His style is artistic/journalistic in that he captures candid, well-composed shots but will also suggest that you adjust your body so you don't look completely awkward. My sister's wedding photographer wouldn't do that, and we ended up looking pretty awkward in a few shots (e.g., necks stretched, hands in weird places). His turn around time was AMAZING- we had our digital images in a couple of weeks. Many photographers guarantee your digital photos within the YEAR but quicker if you buy very expensive prints/albums from them. Chris is an honest businessman AND a talented artist. Even more, he's a pleasure to be around, and that goes a long way in the stressful hustle and bustle of your wedding day. read more

I've known Chris for over ten years, and when we got engaged one of the easiest decisions we had was who our wedding photographer would be. His natural talent at capturing emotion and light, and his ability to blend into your wedding party like a photo-ninja, will provide you with beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. read more

It has been nearly a year since our wedding, and my partner and I as well our friends and family are still talking about how awesome Chris was as our photographer. He felt like a part of the family that day! We have a ton of great pictures to look back on. What makes him stand out as a photographer is that Chris made the day even more fun. He pulled my partner and I away at different points of the wedding to take pictures together; all the while, my partner and I got to enjoy a little bit of private/quiet time together while exploring different areas to find the best shot. Very memorable moments from the day came from this :). He also was able to wrangle my big crazy family and even made that fun! He captured every funny, crazy, cringey moment (wonderfully embarrassing speeches - captured), as well as all the beautiful and love-filled ones. This was exactly what we wanted. You should definitely choose Chris for all your photography needs because: A.) He has a great sense of what his clients want B.) He has fun with it and puts you at ease (important if you are camera shy!) C.) He captures memories with photography, and he also makes new memories with his great energy and passion for what he does. read more

So much Fun! so little time to enjoy! these pictures capture the moment in time. I can't get enough of looking at them! Chris did an amazing job. He was so efficient, professional, and creative! We had over 100 people, and we had a long picture list that we want to take. Chris helped keep things in order, he was not afraid of telling people when to come into the picture and when to go away. Because his efficiency, We had longer couple picture session than we had anticipated. That made a huge difference for me personally!! My husband and I are not "picture" people, we hardly take any pictures. Chris was very instructive and inspirational during our couple picture session. the whole session was smooth, natural, and joyful. Thank you, Chris!! Get Chris, otherwise you are missing out big time!! read more

Chris was AMAZING as our wedding photographer!!! He was so easy to work with in the planning phase leading up to the wedding, and on the wedding day he was clearly working so hard, and got amazing shots that we didn't even dream of. Chris is super easy going and friendly. He makes you feel comfortable, while also being really professional and making sure to get the best shots. We wanted someone who wouldn't be afraid to direct us and tell us when we were making our goofy photo faces and needed to shake it out, and Chris was awesome at that. He also did a great job of getting our 3 and 6 y/o ring bearer and flower girl to cooperate and pose - a miracle! Midway through the reception, Chris hooked up a screen in the corner to display all the photos he'd taken so far, and everyone was floored! The bridal photos were amazing, and he managed to turn a cloudy spring day into the most perfect setting. It was so fun getting to see some of the pictures right away, and pretty amazing how awesome they were when he hadn't even done any editing to them yet. Just a week after the wedding, he put some of the shots up on his blog and posted them to Facebook, and all of our friends/family/wedding guests cannot get over how well they turned out! Some of the guests are already asking for his contact info for their weddings, and we will very happily recommend him!! I can't wait to see the rest of the photos when they're done, but I have no doubt at all that we will love them! read more

My family was so happy with our family pictures. Chris was so welcoming to his home studio which was warm and charming. He was very laid back, fun and relaxed which made our session that much better. Our pictures came out natural looking and we were more than satisfied with the results. He is great about staying in touch and keeping you up to date when the pictures will be ready. From start to finish we were very pleased. We took family pictures 10 years ago and we needed them now, he did a fantastic job creating a family picture we can cherish always. I would recommend him. Very easy to work with. read more

My husband and I have to add our highest praise to the rest of Chris' happy customers. We hired Chris and an assistant to shoot our wedding last summer and were THRILLED with the choice. He had shot other weddings at our venue site (most recently for a groom who is a National Geographic photographer), and as the daughter of the venue owner, we now recommend Chris on our extremely short list of preferred vendors. Chris is the IDEAL photographer- supremely talented (he can create a beautiful shot even in poor conditions/no time to think), incredibly easy to be around (I felt like I had known him forever), and very professional. I learned through researching wedding photographers that there is a big difference between good photographers and GREAT photographers, and you will see it in your pictures. Do yourself a favor and ENJOY having Chris shoot for you. We sure did! read more

I cannot recommend Chris enough! My husband hates getting his photo taken and Chris made it fun and enjoyable. He is incredibly efficient, allowing you to dedicate your time and attention to be able to enjoy you wedding and guests while still capturing stunning photos in various settings. None of our photos seemed staged or awkward and Chris's ability to capture natural light and vivid colors is spectacular. Chris was everything we were looking for in our photographer and we could not be more ecstatic about how our photos turned out! read more
