"Really professional service from start to finish. Pre wedding shoot Chris made us feel completely at ease and was actively encouraging us to get pictures with our dogs and our beloved Land Rover.
At the wedding Chris arrived early at the Inn on the Lake and looked absolutely dapper - yet despite being suited and booted wasn't afraid to get cold and dirty to achieve some really spectacular images. You wouldn't have known Chris was there for large parts of the day, he just blended in with the guests and snapped away. A lot of the guests commented about how personable and professional Chris was.
Again on the day, Chris made us feel totally at ease and was incredibly patient, and encouraged us to try some more adventurous shots again with the Land Rover etc.
We are really pleased with the selection of photos that Chris achieved, a great memory of our special day, and we will definitely be using Chris again for any future photo shoots we do.
Money really well spent in our minds.
Edit - should have also said we received a full set of images to view and download within a few days of our wedding, whilst we received a sneak peek the day after. Truly great service".

"We would thoroughly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a wedding photographer around the Lake District area.
When looking for a wedding photographer we wanted someone who would put us at ease and take mostly natural shots, Chris fulfilled our requirements and more, blending into the background with the rest of the guests.
Chris worked brilliantly alongside our videographer to capture our day and instantly put to rest any of our worries of how the dynamic may work, together they were our dream team! We are so happy with our wedding photos; we feel they truly capture the essence of our day and memories that we will treasure forever".
Thank you Chris!
