About
My name is Chris, and I am a husband and father of two. I have an intense love for coffee, movies, and Halloween, but there are few things more satisfying than knowing you got the perfect shot. I bought my first camera 25 years ago, and I was soon obsessed with capturing timeless moments for everyone around me. That’s what drives me to go to sometimes ridiculous lengths to deliver incredible images for every client. Not only do I give 110% on the day of your event, but I believe in delivering an incredible client experience before and after. I aim to respond to all inquiries within 24 hours, I am happy to work with you to schedule a time and location that is perfect for your needs, and I work tirelessly to get you your perfectly selected and edited images as soon as I possibly can.
Q. Where are you located?
A. I reside in Toms River, New Jersey. I have shot in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York.
Q. What are your starting rates?
A. My prices are lower than the industry average. Family photoshoots begin at $275, and wedding packages start as low as $2,195.
Q. Am I required to purchase prints?
A. Though most photographers will require a substantial print purchase, I do not require them in any of my packages.
Q. Am I required to purchase an album?
A. You are not required to purchase an album with any photoshoot, but I offer high-quality, customized albums starting at just $350.
Q. When can I expect photo delivery?
A. For photoshoots, I guarantee your photos delivered digitally within 2 weeks, and weddings within 4 weeks. However, more often than not I get so excited about a shoot that I begin editing immediately and deliver within 2-3 days.
Q. What is your payment policy?
A. I accept cash, check, or Venmo. There is no deposit required on family photoshoots. For weddings, 1/3 is due upon booking to hold the date and the other 2/3 is due two weeks before the wedding date.
Q. I have an idea for a Halloween photoshoot, but I’m afraid you’ll think it’s too crazy.
A. Try me.
My Equipment
I shoot on full-frame Nikon DSLR cameras. Every photo I capture is taken on a dual-slot DSLR so that, in the case of an SD card malfunction or corruption, the photo will be backed up onto a second card. I travel with a minimum of 3 cameras so that I always have a back-up available. I back up your final gallery to two physical hard drives stored in separate locations, as well as to the cloud. I have never lost a photo during or after shooting.
