Being the type of person who dislikes sitting for a photo, Chris did an AMAZING job of putting me at ease and making the session fun. I needed a professional headshot to accompany a college alumni nomination application. Interestingly, the best photo was the one where he altered the background lighting to be more "artistic". All the pictures he captured turned out very well and now I can update photos on all my professional accounts. THANK YOU,  Chris.

Chris is a VSH, he has a way of relaxing you and helping you overcome your own insecurities when in front of his camera. He explains this to you, which is invaluable to someone like me who is largely a modest non attention seeking individual. He made me feel like I belonged in front of camera. I’m always taking all the pics because I don’t regularly feel that way. Thank you kind sir!

My wife and I wanted some new headshots for our real estate advertising. I found Chris online and he had very high reviews. From the start Chris was very responsive to my inquiries and very reasonably priced for the services provided.

Throughout the entire process Chris was informative and helpful. He is extremely professional and courteous and has an extraordinary eye for photography. We were able to do outfit changes, location changes, etc. His jokes and stories make the session so enjoyable. It was not your typical cookie cutter headshot session. He actually brings life into the photos. The best part is how fast he works! We had our session on a Friday and by the following Wednesday all of our photos were done.

Chris is a 5 star photographer hands down! We will definitely be using him again and again!

Betsy Castro

Chris was recommended to me by a good friend, without hesitation I reached out to him and made an appointment with him. He was very flexible with the time. I came to his studio and he made me feel like home, I was very nervous in the beginning because believe it or not I am camera shy and little by little we started to take some great shots. I will highly recommend Chris. Pictures came out amazing!!!

Danielle

I highly recommend hiring Chris for your professional portrait. I made the mistake of going to another local photography studio first because she was promising an edited photo by the end of the appointment for only $200 - the photo was terrible and so was my experience with the photographer who rushed the appointment and didn’t offer a single hint as to how I should pose or stand (even when I asked).

It was a world of difference when I went to Chris. He puts in the time and effort to make sure everything is perfect. I have received lots of compliments on my new portraits and wish I would have went to him first!

Chris was fantastic! I needed new headshots for my business. I found him through a google search and easily scheduled online. He was very good with follow up to make sure everything would go smoothly on picture day.  Picture day was on a Monday and two days later I had my headshots via dropbox.  The pictures came out really great because he was so patient and helpful during the shoot. I would definitely use him again. Highly recommend!

Michael Casey

The moment that you are invited into Chris's home studio you are immediately put at ease.

Very easy to work with and from the start made the entire experience relaxing. I don't take photos often, and certainly not professional headshots. Chris immediately welcomed me with a smile and was extremely communicative on his thoughts as we stepped through different angles for the photos. He made sure to ask my opinion, even though I still defaulted to his choices because he had an eye for the little details. Definitely a top notch individual who's experience in his profession is evident from the start.
