My husband and I were quite particular when it came to photography. These days, there's a real trend towards editorial-style wedding imagery, which can sometimes run the risk of lacking warmth and heart. When we came across Chris' work, we knew immediately that we wanted him to capture our event. His photography is highly creative, while remaining authentic and full of emotion. We were pleasantly surprised by the quick turnaround, too—we received our album just days after the weekend festivities. All the photos were beautifully organised, and we greatly appreciate the ease of using the online album. Beyond his talent, Chris is kind, cool and patient. He has an incredibly calming presence, which makes the entire experience enjoyable and relaxed. I couldn't recommend Chris enough, and we can't wait to work with him again!
