I was very excited when Katie and Riki booked me as their Lovekyn Chapel Wedding Photographer. It’s a local venue for me and I haven’t had a chance to shoot there before. The day started off at Katie and Rikis flat in Worton Hall, a beautiful old building in the heart of Isleworth. Katie was […]

  • Katie Allen - January 1, 2013 - 9:59 am

    I just have to take the time after such an event to say a big thank you to Chris for our wedding photographs. They are more beautiful than I could ever have imagined!

    The day itself was incredibly eventful with surprises at every turn. We had a lost wedding ring, hailed a lift in a passing car, abandoned formal shots due to arctic temperatures, burlesque dancing etc but Chris took it all in his stride. He was incredibly professional and was a huge help throughout the day. He reassured me that he had captured everything and our guests were none the wiser to his being there most of the time which led to some fantastic images.

    Chris is not a photographer who snaps away in your guests faces and so if you are looking for a natural reportage of the day, Chris will deliver. I cannot recommend him highly enough! Our album, DVD and slideshow are wonderful and we will treasure them always.

    Katie (Allen)

  • Chris - January 1, 2013 - 11:37 am

    Thank you Katie, it was an absolute pleasure to be there to capture your day. I hope you have a fantastic 2013!
