Words can't do justice as to how fantastic Chris is! From the very first contact right through to sending the photos over Chris was a pleasure to work with and he was always great at responding and kept in touch right through the process. The quality of the photos Chris took were incredible! He captured my party perfectly with a good balance of natural and posed photos. Chris is really friendly and down to earth and such a professional. He knew exactly where to be during the party to capture the best photos and his presence throughout the evening was so subtle, you hardly noticed him which allowed everyone to feel at ease and be themselves enabling Chris to capture so many great natural shots. I've been to weddings and parties previously where the photographer is a lot more in your face and it's very off putting but Chris couldn't be further from this, he was very discrete. I would thoroughly recommend Chris for anyone looking to have an amazing photographer capture their special event. I would work with Chris again in a heartbeat!

Chris was a true professional! He was subtle and almost invisible throughout our wedding event, capturing the most beautiful and natural photos. Chris seemed to be in the right place at the right time for every special moment. We are so happy with our photos, he managed to capture all the smiles, laughter and hugs on the day and the lighting is beautiful. We really enjoyed having Chris there at our special day and would 100 % recommend.

Chris was recommended to us through a friend and was absolutely fantastic to work with. He took time to find out exactly what my wife and I wanted from him on our wedding day and mapped out where he’d be at what time and what he needed from us. He communicated well leading up to the day and helped us relax that little bit more when we were focused on so many moving parts. Of course, the photos were amazing too. Everything about the day was captured and it’s been brilliant reliving it all. We have already recommended Chris to friends and family and will definitely use him for any other events we have!
