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!

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.

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 .

Amazing Photographer, will indeed use again!

From the start Chris helped us find a suitable package for our wedding day photography. His main focus and mission was to ensure we were comfortable on the day and suggested we met up before the big day to get to know us as a couple as well as the venue surroundings for ideas on photo opportunities.
On our big day, Chris was like a friend, he was smiling and making our guests feel comfortable. He got on with everyone and all our guests has only the nicest things to say about him.
Chris had used a drone during our wedding to capture the best group photos and scenery of our venue. We got lucky on our wedding day, it rained all morning, Chris had promised me, he has the nickname lucky... what do you know, the sun came out in time for our ceremony, family photos and our special couples shoot.

In 3 weeks after our wedding, Chris worked hard to get our photos edited and make them look natural and perfect.

Thank you again Chris we absolutely love them, as well as our beautiful photo on a slate gift!
You have a natural talent and we are excited to see all your future work online!

Our love, Kat and Tabs

Incredible Wedding Photographer!

I cannot recommend Chris highly enough!. He recently did the photography for our wedding in the Cotswolds. Every aspect of the day and what Chris did was utterly flawless; the organisation, the planning, the communication, the guest management, the creativity and most importantly, the photos! They completely exceeded our expectations, nothing needed editing, he also incorporated video, drone footage and half way through the wedding day itself he gave us some mini prints. In addition to Chris’ professionalism (which many of the guest have already mentioned), he’s a really nice guy and we had such a laugh. Thank you so much for making our special day so perfect, we will recommend you to everyone , hope to see you again! Greg & Emily

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 ♥️

Friendly neighbourhood photographer

We couldn't have asked for a more talented and dedicated photographer than Chris. From the moment we met, we knew we were in good hands.

But it's not just about the pictures. Chris went above and beyond to make our wedding day stress-free. From coordinating with vendors when it all started to get a bit to much to making us feel comfortable in front of the camera, he truly became a trusted friend throughout the process. If you're in search of a photographer who not only captures moments but creates memories, look no further than Chris. We're forever grateful for the beautiful images and the incredible journey he shared with us.

- Adam and Stacey!

Fantastic and Flawless

Chris did a great job from start to finish, he didnt miss all of the small touches and was very thoughtful about what we wanted, he was very proffesional, but also fun, kind and caring. He responds quickly and effciently. He asks everything and more about what we wanted and needed. His prices are very reasonable too. I highly recommend him.

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!
