    Fabulous Photographer!!

    Our experience was wonderful from start to finish. Chris and his team were so easy to work with! They responded quickly, were completely reliable, listened well, adjusted to our needs and budget and they did a fabulous job of capturing everything. Our photos are beautiful! They are super talented and professional. Just a wonderful experience!!

    Hire Chris!

    Chris is an amazing person! I love my wedding photos! He was responsive & very flexible the day of. We didn't have a day of coordinator so it was pretty wild for myself & my husband. But Chris pulled through capturing some great shots of us & our family. Memories we'll cherish forever!

    Amazing Engagement Shoot

    I was searching for a engagement photographer for my proposal and I found Chris online blindly. From the moment I contacted him, Chris was passionate and eager to help. He worked with me every-step of the way to insure my proposal was perfect and meaningful. I'd highly suggest him and I'm hoping we can book him for any follow up shoots/ our wedding.

    Incredible Experience, Amazing Photos, and a Super Talented Duo!

    If you are looking for the most incredible duo who will make you look like a STAR in you pictures, then look no further! Chris and Gina are a fun-loving, incredibly talented couple who made our engagement session so memorable and so much fun! They made both of us feel so comfortable, gave us the perfect direction when we needed it, and found the most amazing locations to make our pictures so unique! Even my fiance (who had never taken professional pictures before) had a blast! Our photography session with them felt like an adventure-filled day of exploration with friends -- lots of laughter, jokes, and unforgettable memories. The pictures turned out SO incredible-- we can't stop going through...

    Experienced Recommendation of Excellence

    Chris Holt and his wife Gina are not only a top professional photography team, but they are a blast to work with as well. I have worked professionally with dozens of photographers over the past 40 years and can highly recommend them for your wedding. We had a private wedding in California and flew in from Texas trusting Chris and Gina to take care of everything related to capturing our special day, and they did!! The end product was beyond compare.

    Amazing!

    We found Chris by chance when another photographer refused to take a booking more than a month out. We had seen his work on Instagram using hash tags. From the first shoot we had with Chris we felt comfortable and relaxed. Chris is particular with getting as much out of the venue for which we are really grateful for as this meant that we had a lot of photos to choose from. A year later we had our cocktail party and wedding ceremony and reception photographed by Chris, Gina, and another assistant. We are ecstatic with the results. He captured all the crucial moments, smiles, cries, laughs and was able to create images which encapsulates the day perfectly. Now...

    We had such a wonderful experience working with Chris and his wife Gina! In the months leading up to the wedding they were great about meeting with us to gain an understanding of the vibe we envisioned and the style we hoped to see in our wedding photos. When the day finally arrived, they were prompt in their arrival time and very flexible as far as finding places on the property to take all of the pictures we wanted to take. It was awesome to have two photographers, one that could hang out with the girls as they got ready and one for the guys as they got ready. We also wanted A TON of formal family photos that...

    Chris was amazing! He helped me plan every detail of my engagement, he even called around to a few vendors to see if we could use their private residences for the photo shoot. He drove 4.5 hours and hid in the bushes and got the most amazing shots of my proposal. I highly recommend Chris for his effort, timeliness, professionalism and creativity. And hey the end product wasn’t too shabby either! You’re the man Chris!!!

    Chris was great. I wish we had booked him longer. Even for our small short wedding 3 hours was not long enough.

    From beginning to end of our March wedding, Chris did a fantastic job. It was small (only 42 people) and Chris was competitive financially with the other photographers we considered. He talked to us ahead of time and organized with us the group photos we might want. He was unobtrusive at the wedding (although our guests apparently talked to him and told us later how nice he seemed!) Best of all, we’ve seen the photos and are thrilled. Chris managed to get candid shots of the children, and a gorgeous outdoor shot of my wedding dress, flowing out behind me in the wind. He was wonderful!!

    I would recommend Chris Holt Photography 100% to ANYONE looking for a wedding photographer! Chris and gina helped to make my day run as smoothly as possible! They are such good people and know photography so well and know what looks good. It's also comforting to know that they're a husband and wife team and depending on the package you get, you can have them both work your wedding! 5/5 stars for Chris and Gina!

    We had an opportunity to work with Chris & Gina on our civil wedding, engagement session, and christian wedding this year. Me and my husband could not ask for a better photographer to capture the very special moments in our lives. This husband and wife duo is the best! They make everything seem easy and we are very comfortable having them photograph us. We love the outcome of all of our sessions we did with them and we know that we will always go to them for our future photography needs. All our family and friends loved our photos which came out to be very authentic and heartwarming. Could not thank these guys enough!!!

    Chris and Gina are a dream team! In the planning stages prior to our wedding, they were always very quick to respond if we had any questions or concerns. We were able to meet up with them twice before our big day- and let us tell you, they are the most kind, caring, hilarious and professional team! We knew we had nothing to worry about on our wedding day because we were in great hands!
    On our big day, they arrived early, met me in my make-up and hair room (our bridal party was getting ready at a hotel), asked how I was doing/ feeling, asked if there was anything I needed....Chris and Gina went above and beyond!

    I could not have made a better decision than to have hired Chris and Gina as our wedding photographers. They are professional, responsible and their work speaks for itself. Chris was well prepared from our first meeting and shared previous wedding pictures he had captured. I was thankful that they were able to work with my schedule. One month before the wedding we met at the venue to looked over different areas where we would like to take pictures which made me feel
    confident and at ease on the big day. Chris and Gina guided me in preparing my wedding timeline; they made me think of those small things that only their experience could help a frantic bride to...

    My experience with Chris Holt Photography was amazing! From the moment I contacted him he was so nice and responded in such a timely manner! It was a last minute thing so I really appreciated that! He made the process such a breeze. He took such beautiful shots of my wedding, priceless moments. During our time together he made us feel comfortable and gave us some good laughs! I would recommend him to all my family & friends!

    Chris and Gina are not just incredible photographers (artists really), but genuinely some of the nicest people you will ever meet. We are so happy we hired them, but more importantly that we had an opportunity to meet them. We consider them great friends and look forward to having them in our lives for many years to come. As for their work, really just breathtaking. I might be the least photogenic guy on the planet (thank god for my wife) and our pictures were just breathtaking. They really captured the environment and surroundings so beautifully. We couldn't be happier with the quality. Chris and Gina make a great team. Everything is incredible. You will be very happy if you are lucky enough to work with them.

    In search for my wedding photographer, I couldn't find a style of photos that fit my simple taste. I was frustrated, until I stumbled onto Chris Holt's website and saw his photos. While reviewing his online portfolio, I said to myself, "Hmmm... I have a good feeling about this!" I admired how crisp, clean and authentic Chris photos look in comparison to other photographers. I quickly e-mailed Chris via his website and got a response in a timely manner. We spoke over the phone, and he sounded very warm and approachable.

    When my husband & I met for our consultation, Chris and Gina are two of the most genuine people that you'll ever meet. They're both good...

    Chris and Gina not only take great pictures but they care a lot about the capturing the experience and moments of the bride and groom. Having them at the wedding wasn't just having a vendor, it was like having friends who cared a great deal about your day.

    Love love love Chris and Gina and this review is going to be LONG as it's based on my interactions with them prior to signing a contract, their customer service, and the sneak peek of my pics we received within a week of our wedding!!
    First, a little context...my husband and I live out of state and had to rely on the kindness of friends for referrals to execute our "destination" wedding. Chris answered ALL my emails promptly and thoroughly. Second, when we made it to Cali, Chris and Gina visited us at our hotel and answer all our questions.

    Third- Pricing. I liked the fact that their prices aren't constricted by hours. Other photographers framed their...

    I would tell a couple that it is very important to click with the personality of you photographer if you hope to get beautiful pictures. Jhanisus and I definitely clicked with Chris and Gina. Our first meeting was so warm and engaging, it felt like they were old friends. On the day of the wedding they didn't miss a beat, they were on time and got so many wonderful shots! I would recommend them to anyone!

    If you are looking for a photographer that has a true eye for photography, Chris Holt is the man for the job. He is amazing! Not only did he make us feel completely comfortable, he was accommodating with wherever and whenever we needed him. He was prompt with the previews of our pictures (which we were anxious to see) and then before we knew it, all the pictures were ready to view. I have nothing but wonderful things to say :)

    Chris and his wife Gina were absolutely amazing! They were professional and helpful and more than willing to go the extra mile to make sure that our wedding day was the best day. Chris has a great talent for capturing the emotions in the moment that they happen. The photos we received from our wedding and engagement truly captured who we are and the beauty of the day. We have been to multiple family weddings since our own and at every one family and friends told us how wonderful our photographers were in comparison to those who were doing the other weddings. Chris and Gina never distracted from the moment yet captured it in a beautiful way. I would highly recommend Chris and Gina Holt for your own wedding day!

    Chris and Gina are absolutely amazing! My husband and I are very happy that we chose them to photograph our wedding as well as an engagement session. They will work with you to make sure you're getting everything you want for a great price. They both put their whole heart into what they do and it definitely shows. They are both very easy to get along with and have great personalities. Chris and Gina have now become great friends to my husband and I. They truly are the best.
