Fine portraiture is an extension of one's self. It creates a lasting memory or emotion that will be relived again and again. The hands of time obscure even our best memories of people and places, but a photograph can help us revive cherished memories of those times.

We photograph with this in mind. Each image that we capture is unique and transcends the ordinary to reveal the special relationships of your family and friends. We continually strive to create portraits that not only document what people look like but also give the viewer a sense of what the subjects’ personalities and emotions were at that one moment.

You will always get not one but two photographers on your wedding day! My partner and wife, Lori, brings her own unique vision to help capture lots of photojournalist-style candids, which comprise the majority of our coverage. We’ll capture candid moments that a single photographer working alone could not possibly get. We also believe that a certain amount of planned portraiture assures that you get the best possible photographs of yourselves and the most important people in your lives.

We never limit the number of pictures that we take. We typically take 1,000 to 2,000 images and then edit them down to the best 500 or so. Any picture we take can be printed as color, black and white, or sepia at no extra charge. Basic retouching and enhancement on any finished print is also included at no additional charge.

What makes us the best choice to photograph your special day?

•	Chris has been passionately photographing weddings as a full time professional photographer for over 20 years!
•	We’ve won over 25 First Place awards in photography including “Best Wedding Album of the Year” 5 times!
•	We have been working together since 2000 and were recently married ourselves so the whole wedding day experience is still very fresh to us!  We truly love working together and it shows in every wedding album we create!
•	We photograph every wedding ourselves rather than assigning them to “associate photographers”.
•	The majority of our images are in the candid “photojournalistic” style.
•	For the portraits, we always use professional studio lights which produce the most pleasing and flattering light (as opposed to “flash on camera”).
•	We use “double lighting” for many of the important events at the reception which creates a more “3 dimensional” lighting effect.
•	We only use professional cameras (as opposed to “pro-sumer”) for the best results and reliability.
•	We contact other vendors that you will be using to assure the best coordination between them and us.
•	Your website will be available within a week after your wedding (usually in just 3 days!)
•	We offer at least three distinctively different styles of custom albums, each with many different options available.
•	All of our packages include a complete set of prints and all the choice high resolution images on a DVD.
•	And most importantly; the majority of our clients choose us as a direct result of recommendations from their friends and family who chose us to photograph their weddings!  Our client satisfaction rate is extremely high!

"Chris is not only a photographer, he’s an artist. His style of capturing the mood and beauty of our wedding day was a refreshing departure from the ordinary. The wedding party was set at ease as Chris worked to create an atmosphere that was relaxed yet focused. We made so many memories on that day, and Chris beautifully caught them all."
