Hi there! My name is Christopher, & yes, I am in fact a girl with a boys’ name!
I’ve been in love with photography for as long as I can remember. I went to school at Hawkeye
Community College & graduated with my Associates of Applied Arts in Professional Photography in 2014.
I’ve been in love with love since 2015 when I started second shooting for our fearless leader, Kaely. Somewhere in the 100+ weddings I’ve photographed, I found my passion. I’m not sure if it was seeing the love in a bride’s eyes when talking about her husband-to- be, the groom’s reaction when seeing the love of his life for the first time that day, or the emotional roller coaster that comes with the father/daughter dance (I cry EVERY time!), but I knew that this is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
I am a proud new mom to a three year old Australian Shepard mix named O’Malley (any Grey’s Anatomy fans out there?) that I rescued from a shelter. I am also a makeup junkie, a vinyl collector & a self-proclaimed 90’s music aficionado.
DO you have a favorite wedding trend or tradition?
I've been loving the TikTok trend of puppies instead of bouquets! (Please do this!)
What's your go-to karaoke song?
Any Man of Mine or Man! I Feel Like a Woman. No one can deny Shania.
If you were getting married tomorrow, what song would you choose for your first dance?
A mashup of Invisible String by Taylor Swift & Simply the Best by Tina Turner, but Noah Reid's version from Schitt's Creek.
What's your go-to coffee order before a wedding?
Lately I've been loving a hot oatmilk chai, no water, brown sugar syrup & two shots. It's soooo good. But it will probably change this summer!
What's a song that always gets you on the dance floor at a wedding?
Literally any song by Chappell Roan. I will be out there screaming Pink Pony Club or HOT TO GO-ing with you!
what's your favorite way to spend a lazy sunday?
Being cuddled up with my girlfriend, our dog & two cats, watching Bob's Burgers.
