Hi Chris,
We were so absolutely delighted with the photos you took and selected for us (including the black and white selections - we have a number of them framed around our house!); your unobtrusive and easy, friendly manner in relating to us and the guests at the wedding; and your approach to photographing the day (both of us and all our loved ones there), being flexible and impromptu while still providing your experienced guidance. Four years later, we have recently been discussing how if we were to do it all again, then we would still love to have you along as our photographer! We have also

Chris saved us when we were on our last tether! I contacted him regarding a special event that we had in mind... we had been married but during covid and wanted a "to-do again" type event so our friends and family could attend. I was so worried that we would get turned away again - instead he embraced us with open arms and made our dream come to life !
Chris is understanding, kind, considerate, punctual, timely in responses and the upmost professional. He is very personable and talented at his craft. He made everyone feel comfortable which allowed for an enjoyable experience for all. He listened

We had Chris photograph our wedding day back in March and we couldnt be happier. From the moment we had our first meeting we knew he was going to be the perfect photographer for us. He has such a fun and positive attitude and was so professional throughout the whole day and night. All of our wedding guests and even some of our other vendors commented on how amazing and fun he was. He really was such a huge part in our day and we are so stoked with how the photos turned out. They are BEAUTIFUL. We cant even pick a favourite!! Thank you SO much Chris for making our day even more special. Your

Cant even put it into words how amazing Chris is. He made us feel so comfortable and relaxed throughout the day. As soon as he sent us over a sneak peak of the photos, we were so impressed and felt so thankful to have Chris photograph our day. His photography skills are beyond amazing and all of our guests complimented on how wonderful the photos turned out; we cannot wait to see the rest!! I am not surprised that people would choose him to photograph their special day, he really is an artist. Thank you Chris! We highly recommend!
