My approach as a wedding photographer is to capture organic moments throughout your day unobtrusively using film and digital cameras. Your wedding is a unique moment in time with the person you love and everyone you're celebrating with. I believe you should be present, laughing, dancing, and not worrying about it all being captured in a way that feels true to who you are and how you envisioned your day.

Pricing & FAQ's

I'm a photographer and a writer, and I love to travel. My background is in photojournalism, which is why I probably ended up photographing weddings with a documentary approach. I'm at my happiest when I'm somewhere unfamiliar, a little lost, pushing through exhaustion, and experiencing a place for the first time. I love this planet and do everything I can with my personal work to advocate for its protection. My writing and photography practices work in conversation together with every subject I approach. 

Most couples who reach out to me mention that they’re determined to enjoy their wedding day and be present during every moment. They are generally turned off by wedding industry trends and the showiness of social media, and instead care about preserving real moments and memories. They don’t want to feel pressured to perform or forced through the same staged photographs we have all seen from countless weddings. They want their wedding day, the one with all of their closest friends and family, to be captured artfully and honestly. After more than a decade of doing this, I continue to photograph weddings because I genuinely love helping people be truly immersed in their day.

If this all sounds good, you're in the right place.

My Ethos In Four Words:

If you're looking to remember your wedding exactly the way it was, (and possibly even better) hire Chris.
-Stephen & Jaroslava

He has a talent for capturing these huge life moments while remaining practically unseen. I didn’t even feel like I was getting photographed and it made for the most natural, stunning wedding photos. We are so grateful for having the opportunity to work with Chris.
-Michelle & Michael

Chris took the time to get to know us and understand what we wanted, and the final photos were amazing. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to capture both the big moments and the smallest details, Chris is the one.
-Katherine & Ethan

If you’re looking for a photographer, do yourself a favor and book Chris ASAP. I’m not sure that I’ll ever be able to thank Chris enough for the gift he’s given us.
-Natalya & Patrick

We felt his work truly reflected our own vision of our wedding in a style we both resonated with and appreciated and of course the quality of the photos is absolutely incredible.
-Montana & Nico
