About
On Hitched.co.uk since 2022
Last update: January 2026
You only get one go at your wedding day.
One go at the hug from your mum.
One go at the look on your partner’s face.
One go at the belly laughs, the ugly crying, the chaos, the calm and everything in between.
So please don’t gamble it on someone who just “takes photos”.
Because a bad photographer doesn’t just miss moments
they change how the day feels.
They slow things down.
They make it awkward.
They turn real moments into staged ones.
I’m hired for two things
Photos that hit you in the chest
My above and beyond approach to serving you on your day
I shoot documentary style so your wedding stays a wedding, not a photoshoot. I’ll blend in when things are flowing, step in when you need help, keep group shots quick, and keep you present in the day instead of performing it.
That’s why my reviews are so good.
Not because my pictures are pretty
but because couples felt looked after.
If you want photos that feel real and a photographer who keeps things effortless
you’re in the right place.
Need more reasons?
“It’s not just pretty photos”
What you’re actually booking when you book me:
-
Someone who keeps the day moving without you feeling rushed
-
Fast group shots that don’t steal your drink and canapés
-
Calm direction when you need it, invisibility when you don’t
-
A couple first approach, always
-
Guests loving me because I’m not awkward or in the way
-
Same day sneak peeks so you can relive it immediately
-
A framed print on the day so it feels real, not stuck on a screen

Absolute Legend!
Darcie and I were so glad that we choose to go with Chris. He was friendly, easy going and we were over the moon with the photos we received.
Chris couldn’t have been more helpful & accommodating of all of our requests. This included preparation photos in two locations. Rounding up the friends and family photos bang on schedule and taking some great candid photos!
Chris clearly had a huge passion for photography and we developed a great rapport over phone calls and then into the day.
Anyone looking for a professional photographer with a friendly and funny personality I would look no further!

Fantastic photographer
Couldn’t recommend Chris more highly! Very professional but also easy going and made us feel at ease at the first meeting. Having just received our pictures from Chris we are absolutely thrilled - they are stunning and really captured the relaxed feel of our day. My now husband hates having his picture taken and usually looks really uncomfortable and he looks relaxed and happy in all of them! Several of our guests on the day commented on how lovely and personable Chris was too. Chris’ packages are flexible and allow for you to book extra time if needed. The icing on the cake was receiving a framed group photo just before we sat down to our wedding breakfast!

Best photographer
Chris was the first and only photographer we met with, we really liked his photos he had online and reviews were really great and when we met him he’s such a genuine down to earth guy we decided he would be the one we choose. We definitely made the right choice, we had another pre wedding call the week before where we went through shots sent list of ideas and he tried to incorporate all of them. He made the whole process easy and posing for photos wasn’t was made to feel very comfortable and at ease and even had a laugh in some of them. Some ideas that I had seen trying to recreate them gave us some funny memories from the day. All my guests said how lovely Chris was and how at ease they all felt and our photos are perfect!! 1000% recommend Chris for any and all weddings! You won’t be disappointed!

Absolutely Amazing
Chris, we are so grateful to you for making our memories so amazing! You truly are the best photographer ever! Right from the start you organised and directed us. We both hate having our photos taken and you put us at ease straight away. You weren’t intrusive, in fact I didn’t even notice you taking photos, you have an infectious personality and everybody loved you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts ♥️

Chris is Awesome!
Chris was a fantastic wedding photographer - neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of a camera, and he made us feel at ease and took loads of amazing photos we’re really happy with! Chris is super friendly, all our guests thought he was great. The planning process was easy, it always felt like he had plenty of time to discuss our plans. Would highly recommend!

Amazing everything
Chris reached out to me first to talk through what I wanted and what he can do to fit our budget, he was very accommodating to our anxiousness and gave us so much help along the way - even finding our celebrant! On the day he showed up more than I could have asked for, not only being our photographer but fitting in like a friend and making everyone not just us comfortable.
I had some worries with how I looked during the day and Chris helped calm me down especially when the days chaos started. He took some amazing photos and the candid shots are definitely the reason to hire him as they really do capture how the day really felt.
I appreciate his work and attention to detail, he really knows how to capture you at your best!
Thank you for all the amazing pictures and memories I'm so glad we picked you!

Fantastic Photographer
Chris was fantastic throughout the whole process! We booked Chris though Hitched and he was quick to respond to messages. Before we booked Chris came out to see us which was great so we could have a chat about everything. We booked an engagement shoot as my partner isn’t particularly comfortable getting his photo taken so we wanted to get to know how Chris worked so he could feel more comfortable on the wedding day. Chris put my partner at ease and made the engagement shoot lots of fun. We are still so pleased with the results! Chris made contact in the run up to the wedding which was great and with everything getting closer it was very easy to know Chris had everything sorted as our photographer. Chris is so enthusiastic and when the wedding day came it was great to know it was all in hand. Chris went above and beyond and we absolutely love our wedding photos! He captured everything so beautifully. We even got a present on the day from Chris and sent us lots of little sneak peaks while we were waiting for photos to be completed and sent to us. We also have our own wedding blog by Chris! He really got to know us as a couple and those little touches with on the day photos, sneak peaks, the blog and his messages just kept the wedding feeling going. We highly recommend Chris! We have attached some photos but I couldn’t attach one where Chris captured a rainbow behind us so please look at his page for more photos!

Amazing photographer from start to finish
We booked Chris about 7 weeks before the wedding and I am so pleased we did. We had a Zoom meeting before as well as numerous texts. Everyone said how amazing he was and the way that he spots the best place for the photos and the ideas he has are fantastic. I could not be happier with the photos and the service we received professional and friendly, what a brilliant balance to have. Nothing was too much trouble. Would recommend to anyone looking for a photographer.

I can not recommend Chris enough as I really hate my photo taken. He put me at ease as soon as I met him and has taken so many lovely picture he was definitely the right man for us as I hardly even knew he was taking them. Everyone found him very friendly and so professional. Don't hesitate to use Chris as you would certainly not be disappointed.

Our saviour
We can't thank Chris enough for everything that he has done. Chris stepped in at the eleventh hour when we had issues with our previous photographer and took over with only a matter of weeks to go. The amount of communication we received from Chris automatically put us both at ease on the lead up to the day. Changing our photographer to Chris turned out to be the best thing that could of happened - he's professional, puts all guests at ease and you end up feeling like a trusted friend is photographing your wedding. He surprised us with an amazing gift during the wedding reception which was such a lovely touch and our wedding photos are stunning. We have so many wall worthy images of our day that it's hard to choose which ones to display! We can't recommend Chris highly enough, book him as your photographer; you won't regret it!

An Outstanding professional humble guy
We instantly took to Chris at the Swan hotel Wedding fair. He was charming and professional and made us feel completely at ease that he could offer us a perfect service on our wedding day.
We stayed in touch upto the day and he was always there for us with any questions we had and he also gave us some goods ideas too.
On the day, he went over and beyond to make our guests and ourselves feel so comfortable that sometimes we didn't even notice he was there. He was so professional and captured every moment of the day.
When we first go to see some photos we were blown away by how beautiful they were. Chris has given us and our friends and family memories to keep forever and we are eternally grateful to him. We would highly recommend Chris to everyone who wants to have the perfect memories of there special day .
