About Chris Arson Photography
Chris Arson Photography
YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED. You're about to spend months planning, researching, and investing in a single day that you'll never forget. That's why preserving it is so important. Photography is a way to relive all those fleeting moments, including the ones you missed, over and over. It's important now, and it's foundational to building your legacy. Your wedding photos are not only for you, but for your grandparents and grandchildren. Your wedding day will be celebrated and remembered through the eye of your Wedding Photographer, so choosing someone who fits your vibe and brings out everyone's genuine personality is essential.
Now that we got the serious stuff out of the way, we can talk about contrast and how important it is for your wedding photos. You need a wide shot of your ceremony, but you need the close up of your ring being put on your finger too. You need a photographer who will keep the day on track, but who's also sincere and funny so all your guests enjoy having their photos taken. When you choose me to capture your wedding, you get someone with 10+ years as a Lead Photographer shooting 400+ weddings across 14 states. That level of expertise creates an atmosphere of calm and confidence that's invaluable at a fast-paced, once in a lifetime event.

Chris was amazing to work with. From start to finish, the first phone chat really demonstrated his interest and passion and ability to make us feel comfortable, the wedding day was great and I felt like he captured so many amazing moments while also being able to take lots of candids while we danced and enjoyed ourselves, and the photos we received were amazing. I’ve gotten so many compliments on how beautiful the photos are and how talented our photographer was.

Book With Chris!!
We can’t say enough amazing things about Chris! From start to finish, their communication and professionalism were absolutely on point. You can tell right away that they’re a total pro - organized, confident, and incredibly talented, but also so personable, fun, and easy to work with. Their energy helped bring out the excitement in everyone, and it truly shows in every photo. We had so many guests comment on how great they were throughout the day and how hard they worked to capture every perfect shot. Chris really listened to our vision, made us feel comfortable, and brought everything we imagined to life. Even from the teaser photos, we can already tell the full gallery is going to be stunning. Thank you, Chris, for making our wedding day so special and memorable! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Chris has THE eye for exceptional photography
Chris has THE eye. He went above and beyond at our wedding. He was a total vibe and got along with everyone as if he had known them for years. He produced pure art for us, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I would recommend him to anyone. Incredibly professional but down to earth and easy to get along with.

Book him NOW!!!
Every experience we had with Chris was incredible. On the intro call, we immediately knew Chris was the one for us. He's calm, confident, entertaining, and thoughtful. Although we had cheaper quotes, we knew Chris would be the one to capture the moments for us to cherish for the rest of our lives. And in looking at the photos he captured of our wedding, we were 100% correct. Chris has an incredible eye for wedding magic. He makes everyone feel comfortable in his presence, and we love how candid his photography is. He's wonderful at capturing quiet moments as well as the motion of dance (see his awesome action shots below!). He doesn't just focus on us as a couple - he captured beautiful portraits of our friends and family that immediate bring us back to the moments. Chris's photography is a work of art, a vignette of the most magical days of our lives, and we are so grateful to have chosen Chris as our photographer. If you're looking for an artist to transport you to your most magical day when you look at his photographs, run - don't walk. He books up fast!

The BEST
I am beyond grateful we hired Chris as our wedding photographer. From our first time talking I knew he was the right fit. He went above and beyond to make this the best experience. From meeting us in advance and even scouting photo spots at the venue when we visited, to preparing an iron clad schedule with room for flexibility, to making me an electrolyte drink so I'd stay hydrated during the morning prep, and making us laugh and stay present throughout the day, we couldn't have been happier with our experience. Chris has an innate ability to connect with anyone and he made all of us feel at ease, which helped our authentic emotions shine through in the photos. We knew we wanted a photographer that could capture all the feelings in a unique, artistic and fun way, and Chris did all that and more. Our wedding photos are beautiful, precious memories that truly allow us to relive each moment, and I am so grateful for that gift. Chris was one of the best investments we made for our wedding, and he truly made the day even more special for us and our families. 1,000 out of 10 recommend!
