Testimonials
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!

We hired Chris as our wedding photographer, with a 12+ hour package to cover the entire day. The quality of the images themselves, and the recommended poses (mixing between fun, romantic, and natural) are sublime. During our pre-wedding meetings/calls with Chris, he was smiling and warm, ensuring that every detail about the day would be captured the right way, and that the images would reflect who we are as a couple. Furthermore, on the day itself, we were inundated with positive feedback about him; everyone noted he was charming, fun, and totally professional. We received our final, edited photos within a month (not to mention we had a "sneak preview" of several photos before the end of the wedding day itself!).
Thank you Chris for being so wonderful, and for helping make our wedding unforgettable, thanks to your photos!
Adam & Cam
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 ♥️
Cari & Andy
Chris was amazing as our wedding photographer, put us both totally at ease throughout the day and captured so many special moments for us. We got our photos a few weeks after the wedding and are obsessed, we can't thank him enough and would highly recommend him to anyone!
Emma
Chris was amazing at our engagement photo shoot! He captured fantastic shots and made us both feel at ease and have fun through the morning.
I was extremely nervous knowing I would have to have my photo taken and be centre of attention on our wedding day but knowing Chris will be there to capture the day has reassured me and we know we have absolutely made the right choice for our photographer for the day and we can't wait to see the end results and have his energy and personality at our wedding!

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!

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!

"Captured by Chris" emphases on the name when you live and love in the moment and have it immortalised forever every moment and emotion captured in its purist form, as a now married couple wishing it hadn't gone so fast wanting to relive and be back in our moment once more.... well Chris "he understood the assignment" definitely delivered the full package looking at our jaw dropping pictures and being able to have those moments of heart felt emotion back really impacted us capturing every facial expression meant the world.... I want our word's to hold wait as I value his approach and professionalism so much he is such an easy person to approach amazing with babies and getting them to stop crying an all around genuine upstanding man and were soooo happy to have had Chris for our wedding and wouldn't change a thing..Chris didn't just make an impact on us but all of our guest had nothing but praise to be said , his style , his creativity and originality spoke volumes. Thank you Chris for helping make our day so perfect

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!
Phil West
Our pre-wedding shoot with Chris was absolutely incredible! From the moment we met him, he made us feel so comfortable and at ease. His friendly and professional demeanor instantly put us at ease, and we knew we had made the perfect choice in choosing him as our photographer. Chris's talent and creativity truly shined throughout the entire shoot, and he captured the most beautiful moments that we will cherish forever. We couldn't be more excited and grateful to have Chris as our photographer! Thank you for making our engagement shoot such a memorable and enjoyable experience! We are even more excited now for our wedding day!
Chloe
We had our engagement photoshoot with Chris earlier this month and had a fantastic experience! We don’t consider ourselves to be photogenic and were slightly apprehensive at the start of the shoot. Chris did a wonderful job of helping us to relax, letting us “forget” that he was taking photographs and, as verified by our close friends and family who have viewed the photos, really managed to capture the essence of us as a couple. His editing style is also fantastic - very natural and candid with some great contrasts to the background and us. Overall a great day and we are looking forward to having Chris as our wedding photographer in 2025!
Jon & Ellisse
Chris was fantastic on our wedding day! He put all the guests at ease, was organized, professional and kept us all laughing (which meant some fabulous candid photos) We've only just got our photos back, and we can't stop looking at them. Highly recommend for an special occasion or photoshoot! Outstanding! Thanks again Chris, we will cherish our wedding photos forever! Kellie and Daniel :)
Kellie & Daniel
I booked Chris to do a family photoshoot and the whole process was very easy. Chris arrived at the destination early to scout out some good spots and made the whole shoot relaxing and fun for us all. He took on any requests and captured my kids (4 & 7yrs) personalities well in each picture! We all enjoyed it and have some great photo’s to treasure. I would definitely recommend Chris, we be booking again!
Kelly Thomas
Chris has an ability to put you at ease and make you feel comfortable both behind and in front of the camera lens. You should absolutely enquire about booking Chris for your wedding and engagement shoot. He is a natural at finding the right angles which compliment not only the scenery but also the couple in their best light.
Molly
Fantastic photographer! With excellent communication both before and during the event. He dealt with our requests professionally and provided great insight and experience. The resultant photos were marvellous, leaving us with perfectly captured memories to cherish.
