KIND WORDS

Everything We Wanted!

Chris captured our wedding day perfectly. The photo album and wedding highlights video are just amazing. We have watched he highlights video several times and been transported back to our special day. We found Chris through a recommendation from our venue, Ripley Castle and we could not be more grateful for it. Chris has the perfect personality for this job. He has the right mix of being sociable, focused, calm and creative. He literally jumped over walls to get the perfect shots! We highly recommend Chris and would definitely reach out to him again :) - Jim & Catherine

Memories to treasure a lifetime!

Chris was our wedding photographer in May 2024 at Ripley Castle. We decided to go for the “I want it all package” and that was definitely the right decision! We were absolutely blown away by the quality of pictures received and we have displayed them all around our house. We get compliments every time we have a visitor round. The wooden keepsake USB and 50 page alum album were just the icing on the cake. Chris was very knowledgeable on the day and knew all the perfect locations at the venue to get the best shots. I am not the most photogenic person, but myself and partner felt very natural and at ease when having pictures done. 10/10 would recommend!! - Simon & Victoria

The best day of our lives!

If there was 1 thing that we weren’t going to compromise on for our wedding it was going to be the photographer! After lots of research we chose Chris to capture our special day and he did not disappoint! All of our photographs are stunning, he captured the day so perfectly and his attention to detail is second to none. Not only is he amazing at what he does, he is such a lovely guy too. If you are questioning whether to book him for your special day then just book! You won’t regret it! - Alice &

“The truth about Chris Thornton… So is Chris an incredible photographer? Yes… yes he’s easily the best that we saw at countless wedding fayres… but the reason you should hire Chris is because of him as a person. He’s SO accommodating, puts you totally at ease and it felt more like one of our friends was taking photos than hiring a stranger. So yeah, Chris is the best, on every measure I can think of..” - NF

“AMAZING, from start to finish. We booked Chris in 2015 for our wedding in September 2016 in Lake Garda in Italy. Having known Chris from childhood he was the only thing I wanted for our wedding. From my initial email, he was a dream. Even arranged an evening for drinks with Louise and him to get to know her as he offered to pay for her to come out and assist him. We said from the outset we wanted him to feel a part of the wedding, he joined us for a boozy night with the guys and everyone loved him. On the day, nothing at all was too much trouble at all, the results spoke for volumes. We wanted him and Louise to feel part of it. We had them sat with the wedding party for the meal as quite frankly they deserved a break for the 28 degree heat. Even while his wife back home suffered a medical issue and was rushed to hospital on the big day, he was a true professional all the way through. Simply, Chris is a dream to deal with and if we could do it all again we would and he would be the first thing we would chose again. Without question. Cannot recommend enough...” — Christian

“Such a talented photographer. We booked Chris for our wedding photos and subsequently two lifestyle shoots when we had our daughters and we recommend him to absolutely everyone. Not only is his work amazing (top quality photos) but he has a lovely character to help put you at total ease on the day. Thanks once again!.”- Kirsty

We Chris to capture our special day, can’t recommend him enough, so professional, fit right in, wasn’t in the way, took the most amazing pictures and made us look good. My brother is getting married in 2024 and has already booked him after seeing our pics. Thanks Chris.” - Charlotte P

“Chris kindly photographed our wedding in 2014 and he was awesome!
We couldn't recommend him enough and are still showing off our photos! Maria is also a photographer so expectations were already high and Chris didn't disappoint!

Thanks again!”

Best regards
Elliott & Maria

We set Chris a bit of a challenge at our wedding as it was in Lapland. Temperatures as low as -20 meant a lot of additional problems could arise. Battery’s running out, condensation and lots of technical issues that I wouldn’t understand.

Chris was incredible, calm, always where we needed him to be and accidentally at one point became the wedding planner when the Finnish lady thought it was normal for all the wedding guests and my future husband see me arrive (before the ceremony)

Our photos are amazing and although I didn’t know Chris personally, choosing him was the best decision I made and I wouldn’t even consider going elsewhere!

Thank you again Chris for everything..” - Sam B

“Amazing! Pretty much sums him up!! So happy we found him for our wedding, the memories we have to look back on are irreplaceable!

He even stayed late to get all the amazing (albeit boozy) photographs

But I would like to say thank you also Chris for taking special moments of the day with me and my dad as these are now precious memories and I'm so glad I have them ❤️”

“Could not be any more thrilled with Chris’ work from our wedding day. He captured all the detail of the day and so many beautiful shots we can’t choose which to frame! He made us feel completely at ease from booking all the way through the day. Cannot say enough thank yous to Chris, and I would recommend him to everyone.” - Emily V

Best around. Best service, amazing photos and goes above and beyond to get your dream photos

“If you want a photographer for anything chris is your man,arrived at our daughters home 9.15 am for the first wedding day photos what a really nice man couldnt do enough for her stayed at venue until 11.15 and still had a smile on his face A huge thankyou” - Anita

Chris is an amazing photographer that captures every little detail of your wedding day. I knew from the very start of wedding planning that I wanted him as our photographer, after seeing his previous work we were in love with his style! He was so professional and creative and really managed to capture the feelings of the day. He was present yet invisible! Managing to capture moments when people weren't even aware he was there. My photos are an absolute prized possession from our wedding day and I have a huge photo album that holds all 800 photos, as it was impossible to narrow it down. He does not take a bad photo! Don't go anywhere else for your wedding photography, you're absolutely in the right place with Chris..” - Shauni

“Chris does amazing work. Very professional, talented and willing to go the extra mile to get 'the shot'. He and a colleague photographed our recent wedding and we could not be happier with the results. Highly recommended.” — EW
