PRICING
Thank you for at least considering me to photograph your wedding! I strive to be a partner throughout the entirety of being your photographer and that starts right now with making my pricing upfront and straightforward.
Christopher
Christopher always puts you first and is always there for you, literally anytime you need him. He strives to make your day as smooth and perfect as you do! He will not disappoint, and even with my now-husband who’s not huge into photo keepsakes, even HE is excited to get our photos back from him because he was so talented and went above and beyond for us on our special day

what IS INCLUDED?
Before I found photography, I spent quite a few years of my life both being full commission in sales and managing full commission sales people. I loved my time in sales but I have left that life behind me when I picked up the camera. So you will not find any gimmicks, “complimentary” items or asterisks. I built my pricing on being a service to my couples and also on what I deeply love about weddings.
True, All-Day Photography coverage
Throughout your entire wedding planning process will you have to ask “How long do we have our photographer for?”
I have found that the best way to serve my couples is to just simply be there on your wedding day. From the morning mimosas, to the weird uncle dancing, I will be there.
Your Photographs, without strings
Please share your gallery with all your friends and family! I want them to be able to relive each and every moment from your wedding day!
DEDICATED 2nd PHOTOGRAPHER
When you have a dedicated 2nd photographer, it not only allows you to have events photographed that a single photographer may miss but also gives you the peace of knowing that no matter what your wedding day gives us, we will be prepared.
the PRICING
I have a “jumping off” point for wedding photography pricing that starts the conversation of building a package that best serves you. I am more than happy to share this with you without any strings! Just fill out this form, email me at or even just text me 815.621.9744

Chris was more than a photographer for us on our wedding day; he was there with us from the early morning to the very late night, capturing every special moment, and just helping in any way he could. We are so incredibly thankful for him. When we first met him he spent the time to really get to know us and understand our story. This was reflected in the way he captured our wedding day and made everything so much more personal. His main mission was to make sure we were having the best time ever and we are so grateful for that. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. He captured not only all the big significant moments, but all the small intimate moments in between. We will forever cherish the stunning memories he captured. His easy going personality and professionalism allows you to enjoy every second of your big day and he makes sure there is no stress on you. He was such a big part of our wedding and we can’t thank him enough. If you are looking for an outstanding photographer and person, look no further!! He is the best!

YOUR COUPLES SESSION
So This is the first chance I have to start to tell the story of you as a couple. This is not just a “Let’s find a field at sunset and rip through 12 pinterest poses”. I want authenticity, I want to know more about you, I want to help you get comfortable in front of the camera but by far the most important, give you photographs that when your friends and family see them they just simply say “These are SO you!”. So let’s visit a place you two love together, let’s laugh and let me find out why you two truly love each other.
Booking Christopher to be our photographer was the absolute best decision we made for our wedding! Because of him, we will be able to live forever through the moments he captured. We all want exceptional service and even more exceptional photographs on our wedding day. Well let me tell you, Christopher delivered. He went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable and enjoying our day while capturing every amazing moment – all without intruding and while encouraging us to be present in the moment! He helped us achieve better photographs than I could ever imagine! In addition to his amazing photographs, Christopher was approachable, fun and professional. He is very experienced, knowledgeable and passionate, and it shows! We also felt his packages were fairly priced and truly ALL inclusive. I can promise you that you will not regret making him apart of your special day!

your QUESTIONS
Have some questions? I have some answers for you!
You say you are offering "True All Day" photography coverage, what does that mean really? Another photographer is offering "Full Day" coverage, that is the same right?
I have noticed other photographers use a few different terms but more often than not, the devil is in the details. I have seen “Full Day” coverage but it only starts 2 hours before your ceremony. I have also seen a restriction that the coverage ends 1 hour after dancing starts. My coverage does not have those restrictions. If you are having a really unique formal exit form your reception, like a sparkler send off, I will be there until the very end. So that does mean sometimes my photography days are 12, 13 or even 14 hours long. That is ok for me! I want you to have the freedom of planning your day and never have to ask yourself “I hope my photographer will be here for this special moment.”
With your online galleries, is it really OK for me to share my ENTIRE gallery with my family and friends and let them download and print any photograph they want?
Yes!! It really is! I want you to be proud of every photograph in your gallery and share them with all your family and friends! Within your gallery is a reprint, download and sharing release that is good for everyone to use! So go on and share away!
How long do I have to wait to see my photographs?
I haaaaaate waiting for things in my own life so I totally understand! I personally edit every single photograph I deliver to you but I will still have your gallery to you within 30 days of your wedding!
I have seen other photographers limit my wedding gallery, such as UP to 700 photographs. What is your limit?
I will not artificially limit your gallery in any way! If it is a good photograph that I am willing to stamp my name on, I deliver it in your gallery. Most of my final wedding galleries end in the range 750-1000 photographs.
Why do you not offer multiple packages or tiers to choose from?
Because I have never enjoyed being forced to possibly select things I do not want. My pricing is built around being a service to my couples and a very large part of that service is being open with my pricing, making it easy for my couples to have access to and allowing my couples full freedom to mix and match any option they want or need without any penalty.
