About
A key component that makes photography such an important line of work for me is being able to provide clients with high-quality and specialized moments that they can hold onto in the future. My goal is to capture memorable moments for my clients through photos that have been taken with care, edited based on client preferences, and finalized promptly. I look forward to capturing whatever you bring my way!

Christian shot our wedding last weekend and so many people complimented me on how thorough and nice he was! Christian was easy to work with, very communicative and helpful throughout the process. Our photos look amazing and I can't wait to see the rest!

Highly recommend. Compassionate about his job, Excellent and went above and beyond to accommodate our large crowd. There were many moving parts happening during the morning of our son’s wedding and Christian was calm and made everyone comfortable. Thank you and hope to work with him someday again.

Christian is one of the best photographers I’ve worked with, truly can’t say enough good things. We hired him to photograph a big family event and he took such sweet candids, directed posed photos (even with some tough to photograph family members) and capture wonderful portraits. He was always responsive, easy to work with, flexible and patient on time. Highly recommend!!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer discounts for clients who book for several events and have repeat client discounts.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
A central part of my process is communication. My priority when meeting new clients is to hop on a call to discuss the project whether it's a wedding, portrait session, or an event. I want to make sure that I'm on the same page as the client from the start. From there I share albums of related clients so they know what exactly to expect and send contracts/invoices promptly.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from DePaul University where I studied digital cinema and photography.
