<span style="font-size: 18px;">I don&rsquo;t just mean for that absolute fox you&rsquo;re marrying. But passion is something that imbues your life &hellip; for your career, your family, your future. For spending this incredible day with your equally incredible people. I recognize all that passion you&rsquo;ve got to give, and can&rsquo;t wait to bring some of my own.</span>&nbsp;</div>

<p>Raise a glass to them. They&rsquo;ve supported you, loved you, put up with you during those teenage years. And now, they&rsquo;re here to celebrate you. There&rsquo;s nowhere else you&rsquo;d rather be than celebrating this once-in-a-lifetime with the people who&rsquo;ve made you who you are today. And yeah, I&rsquo;m definitely including those friends who&rsquo;ve become family too.</p>
<h1>&nbsp;</h1>
<h1>Memory</h1>
<p>When you look back on your wedding day, you shouldn't see a photo shoot. You should see your people, your moments, and the day that started your forever. That's why every Photography Stiles collection goes beyond the gallery. From the moment you book, you're paired with a dedicated heirloom specialist whose only job is to make sure your wedding day becomes something you can actually hold, an album, a piece of wall art, a print worth framing. Not someday. As part of the experience.</p>

The Experience

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Chris! I was always a big believer that everything happens for a reason and working with him proved that to be true. I plan weddings for a living and when it was time to plan my own I originally booked another photographer. Well, thanks to covid we ended up postponing twice and ended up with a date that our first photographer wasn’t available for. Enter Chris! I had worked a wedding with him a couple years prior and was so impressed with his professionalism, easy going personality, and of course the beautiful photos that he took- that I knew he was the right photographer for us. If you are looking for a photographer who takes stunning photos and is an absolute pleasure to work with- look no further!

Malana & Steve

My husband and I both full heartedly agree that choosing Photography Stiles was our best wedding planning decision. From the very first phone call with Chris, he was so kind and so focused. In person, his laid back energy immediately calmed us during our engagement session. (Which was SO much fun.) On our wedding day he was beyond amazing. Chris, and his second shooter Jen beautifully captured every moment of that long, and special day, while also helping to coordinate the entire time! So grateful for the extra care and effort they both put in to help ensure everything went smooth.We SO highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun, personable, hardworking, beyond amazing photographer.

Celia Barber

We are beyond grateful for Chris (and his amazing second cameraman, Tyler) for capturing our wedding day so beautifully. From the moment they arrived, they brought such warmth, calm, and professionalism, it truly felt like spending the day with old friends who just happen to be incredibly talented behind the camera.

Chris went above and beyond, even editing some photos during the reception and coordinating with our DJ to display them on his screen. Seeing those moments from earlier in the day pop up in real time was absolutely magical and had everyone cheering on the dance floor.

If you’re lucky enough to have Chris photograph your wedding, just know you’re in the best hands, and you’ll end up with captured memories that last a lifetime!

<p style="text-align: center;">It's a beautiful time in your life - you're engaged! As your journey towards your special day begins, one of the exciting milestones is your engagement session. This pre-wedding photo shoot allows you to connect with your photographer and create beautiful images that celebrate your love story. Through this guide, I'll share tips on how to prepare for a successful session that leaves you feeling confident and excited.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Firstly, let's talk about outfit choices. What you wear plays a crucial role in how your photos will look. Choose outfits that reflect both your individual styles and your relationship. Don&rsquo;t shy away from color! Pastels and neutral shades tend to photograph well, but don't feel limited by them. If you love bold, vibrant colors, go for it. Avoid logos or overly busy patterns that can distract from your faces. Consider the location and season too. If you're shooting in a park in the fall, warm tones could complement the scenery. Above all, ensure you feel comfortable and confident in what you wear.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Next, selecting the location for your engagement session is key. Choose a place that holds special meaning to you. Whether it's the coffee shop where you had your first date, the park where the proposal happened, or simply a beautiful location you both love, it should be a place that tells part of your story. Your photographer will be able to help you consider the practicalities of each location, such as lighting and crowds.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When it comes to posing, remember that the best photos often happen when you're simply being yourselves. Your photographer is there to guide you, but don&rsquo;t worry if you're not a natural model. The goal is not to create perfect poses but to capture your genuine connection and love for each other. Feel free to be playful, tender, or even a little silly!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Lastly, remember to relax and have fun. Your engagement session should be a joyful experience, not a stressful one. It's an opportunity to spend time together, to get to know your photographer, and to create lasting memories. It's not just about the final photos, but the experience and the story behind them.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">With these tips, you're now ready to have a successful and enjoyable engagement session. I can't wait to capture your love story and create beautiful images that you'll cherish forever. Here's to celebrating your unique journey of love!</p>

Preparing for Your Engagement Session: A Comprehensive Guide

Memories with soul. Photos that move you. Films that stay with you.

You will find the about page from my existing website between the “” below. You can use this section primarily for tone of voice and style as opposed to content. Make sure that all references to the self are in the first person singular, as I am the only photographer on my team. Please also ensure that there are no references to “our team” or “our photographer”. Instead, all writing should be coming directly from me.


"My first obsession was weather. (Okay, and current. Catch me geeking out over winter snowstorms.) Yet as my career shifted away from meteorology, I realized the 9-5 wasn’t for me. I’d always been drawn to photography, but mostly of the sky. So how’d I get here? Everything changed when my friend printed and framed a portrait I took of his family. So often, you snap a pic and move on. Yet he had taken that extra step to make sure he remembered, and it moved me deeply.
For my friend, his girls had already grown a bit. Yet that fleeting stage of childhood lived on thanks to something I did.  

That was the moment I realized I’d found my new obsession, something that could fill me with as much passion as weather. I’ve photographed couples in love ever since."

The Experience

“Multiple friends and family members made comments about how amazing our photographer was, it stood out to anyone present. We are so lucky to have had Chris document our special day, and highly recommend him.”
