About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2025

Last update: December 2025

Hey! I’m Chris - a wedding photographer with nearly 20 years’ worth of experience, based in York centre.

I specialise in candid, ‘fly-on-the-wall’ style wedding photography that tells your story. I’m not your traditional photographers in that I keep staged portrait photos to a minimum – I let you live in the moment and capture your story and love throughout the day. The best photos are the ones where people are being natural!

With my relaxed, friendly nature, I bring out the best in you with your smiles and laughs on your amazing day.

“Chris was incredible. There is no other way to sum it up.

From the moment we booked he was attentive and helpful. Even being flexible and allowing us to meet via zoom as we were planning our wedding from abroad.

On the day, he was everywhere at once capturing all our favourite moments. He was a perfect fly on the wall and did not ask us to do anything or request anything that would make us uncomfortable.

Chris was friendly and approachable and made our day so much easier. He slipped into the day seamlessly and was genuinely so much fun to hang out with and speak to. It was like having an extra friend there. He was encouraging and perfect company when we were feeling nervous.

As for the photos, they are awesome. Chris is Incredibly talented and we could not be happier with the outcome. He captured candid moments beautifully and could we see our personalities in each photo.

Thank you!”
