    Professional, fun and creative! Could not be happier with Christopher Belli Photography

    We knew from our first call with Chris that he had to be our photographer! Chris is so passionate about capturing the love and uniqueness of each couple’s relationship and making sure the photos are personal and not generic. I definitely recommend getting the package that includes the engagement session, not only do you get great photos of your engagement but it gives you and Chris an opportunity to get to know each other and get a feel for your personality and is just a great ice breaker. Chris is so easy to work with. He gives great direction for ensuring he captures the photo but somehow they don’t look fake or staged but feel and look very organic....

    Extremely talented and professional! Can’t recommend enough.

    Chris is an extremely talented, professional, and fun photographer to work with. He was recommended to us by our wedding planner and he exceeded all of our expectations. From the beginning, he took the time to get to know us personally and understand what was important to us so that he could capture this during our engagement pictures and wedding day. He always stayed connected with us and was very easy to reach if we had additional questions. Our engagement and wedding pictures turned out amazing! He did an outstanding job at capturing all of the emotions and love throughout the day. Thank you so much Chris!

    The Perfect Photographer for your Wedding Day

    Chris has been an absolute pleasure to work with. I had met Chris prior to getting engaged due to a prior event four years ago and when I got engaged last year, he was the one vendor I absolutely had to rebook because he left an amazing impression the last time I had worked with him. He is personable, loves (and is great at) what he does and shows a genuine interest in your needs/wants for your wedding day. He has by far been my favorite vendor to work with, he makes sure to respond to all when we have e-mail correspondence so I wasn't constantly forwarding e-mails on to my finance like I had to do for other...

    Your wedding is one of the most significant and memorable days of your entire life, and rightfully so you want to capture every beautiful moment from start to finish. Christopher Belli has an undeniable passion for not only photography but also for people! His number one goal is to make you and your partner comfortable so he can capture the most natural and perfect photos! From our first phone call I knew Chris was our guy! Not only does he have the expertise to walk you through every "what if" and "now what" that comes after you start wedding planning, but he is a genuinely nice guy! You'll instantly feel relaxed and in good hands! My husband HATES having...

    I have so many wonderful things to say about Chris and his talent! His photography is so beautiful and creative, and my husband and I were very happy with all of our pictures. He did such an amazing job capturing our special day. Leading up to our wedding, he was very easy to communicate with, and quick to respond to emails and phone calls. Chris didn't miss a detail! To top it off, he is very personable, fun, and a joy to spend time with. Thank you so much Chris, we will cherish them forever! If you want a professional that has an eye for unique beautiful photographs then look no further - he is your photographer!

    Chris did a fabulous job as our photographer. I knew immediately after our initial phone conversation that he was the one for the job. I was even more convinced after meeting him in person and seeing samples of his wedding albums. He put me at ease immediately with all of my concerns and questions. I loved his personality and sense of artistic expression. We love our wedding photos. He really captured the essence of our personalities and the special elements of our wedding day. Chris was amazing at putting us at ease as well as keeping it light and fun while capturing the most intimate moments of our day together. Chris is genuine, creative, respectful, kind and enjoyable to...

    I first met Chris when I was a bridesmaid in my cousin's wedding two years ago. I knew right away that this guy was awesome and to keep him in the back of my mind when the time came for my wedding. Chris was one of the first vendors I contacted soon after I became engaged. We even made our wedding date around his availability! We had chosen a wintery engagement session and even though it was freezing and snowing, Chris made it a lot of fun. He was even kneeling and laying down in the snow to get the best photos of us. Despite the frozen toes, we had a blast! The wedding planning process was very organized....

    Chris Belli was amazing to work with! He was flexible and easy to communicate with.

    Christopher Belli Photography (Chris and his second photographer) have an artistic approach to your pictures. They are thinking ahead to your wedding album when suggesting poses (who takes a picture of a wall? Someone thinking about meaningfull background images for an album), but also work with you, your location, and lighting (both natural and supplemental) to really capture beautiful images.

    The whole story of our day is documented now with high quality photographs. I feel like I'm reliving that day every time I look at our photos.

    To be honest, I was nervous due to the cost (I'm...

    The moment I met with Chris Belli, I knew he was the one - photographer that is! He is very friendly, easy to work with and definitely pays attention to detail! Chris did both my engagement and wedding session and he was excellent both times! Both sessions were outdoors in cold weather (one in November, the other in December) and Chris remained un-phased by the temperature. He went above and beyond by fluffing my dress, picking lint of my groom and laying on the ground in downtown Detroit, just to get perfect pictures for us on our big day! Additionally, my husband can be very shy, but he too loved working with Chris Belli, since he was able to joked with us, made us laugh and made us feel very comfortable!

    We had an awesome experience working with Christopher Belli Photography! From the very beginning Chris was professional, prompt in responding to emails, easy-going and flexible in accommodating our extremely busy schedules.

    We used him for our engagement photos, we hoped for a cool mid-October, Fall outdoor session and ended up with a freezing cold day, I was so glad that Chris suggested that we go into our cars periodically to warm up, he was extremely patient with us! This was the first time we ever had professional photos taken but Chris made us feel completely at ease and comfortable and it turned out to be a lot of fun! We were so happy with the photos, we...

    Chris, and his photographs, are wonderful. From our first meeting, my now-husband and I felt a connection with him, both on a personal level and in a professional, photographer-client manner. I looked at 20, give or take, photographer portfolios online, and we ultimately chose Chris.
    In addition to being great to work with, he was also very professional and organized. While we had sent him a timeline ahead of the day, he was great in his ability to adapt and roll with any changes or minor complications that happened on the day itself.
    His attitude, perspective, and ideas all mixed perfectly with what we had envisioned for our day. Neither my husband nor I are exactly models, in looks...

    Right from our first meeting with Chris we knew we wanted him as our wedding photographer. He showed samples of his work and it was clear that he loves what he does and truly wants to help you capture all of the important details of your day so you have keepsakes for years to come. He could recall in detail stories of each couple he was showing us photos of, telling us about the significance of the bride's something borrowed or how the couple met. The wedding albums he creates are really beautiful.

    Chris is highly organized which was helpful during the planning process as well as the day of the event. We were able to get...

    Chris is an absolute joy to work with! He is incredibly personable so you feel at ease while you're "modeling" for pictures. I don't typically enjoy posing for photos, but Chris made it fun and easy to get in front of the camera. I did not once feel uncomfortable or unnatural. I really appreciated his organization and thoroughness in getting all the details covered before our wedding. It made it really easy (not only for photography purposes) but keeping the timeline on track for the whole day. He maps out locations and works up a timeline to keep everything on track. If you work with Chris, you know you're working with someone you can trust!

    My husband and I had so much fun working with Christopher, he is very talented and his experience is priceless! We had a lot of last minute schedule changes, including changes on the day of our wedding and Christopher was more than accommodating. He was very organized and worked really well with our wedding party, families and friends. He is very creative, has a great eye for different and fun photo opportunities. For my husband and I, we were a bit nervous about pictures since we are not that comfortable in front of a camera, but Christopher's approach makes the entire process more organic and natural. We also had engagement photos done by Christopher and they turned out beautifully!...

    Chris was the best of all our vendors! From the start to even now we continue to communicate!!! We found Chris by looking online for local photographers, narrowed our search to our top 5 and met with each one. Choosing Chris was the best we could have done!! So friendly, helpful, guides you throughout the day, organized with a timeline so you don't feel rushed! Our guests thought he was a family friend since my husband and I worked so great with him!!! Last comment....his passion for photography is remarkable and his work is UNBELIEVABLE and BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!

    This man is an amazing photographer. Easy to work with, inspired, and made everyone feel comfortable durring the long sets of taking pictures, right from the beginning in the hotel suite when all my bridesmaids and i were getting ready, running around like maniacs running late for everything and not acting very ladylike! We barely noticed him taking all these in the moment photos. I havent gotten my photos back yet, but I am positive they will be fabulous and alot to coose from!

    I don't even know where to start. The first time I spoke to Chris was over the phone and I knew right then and there, I don't care how much I have to pay, this guy is going to be my photographer! I told my (now husband) that I wanted to set up a meeting with him. Anthony wasn't so sure about the price as it was more than we had originally planned for but when we met Chris in person it was clear that He would be our photographer(after all he was a Pilot at De La Salle High School like my husband!)

    Chris was THE BEST photographer we could have ever imagined on our wedding day. Words can't describe how pleased we were with him and his work. We met with a few different photographers but no one was as personable and talented as Chris. From our first meeting Chris was always available and prompt to answer questions by phone and e-mail. We really appreciated how Chris happily worked with us and our busy schedules for our engagement session and all of our pre-wedding and photo-ordering meetings. All of our friends and family at the wedding thought he was so nice, professional, talented and funny! When we saw our final wedding photos we were blown away, they were everything and more...

    Chris was absolutely amazing! He captured so many unique and one of a kind shots! He worked so well with us and our time schedule the day of the wedding. His photos really told the story of our day! One thing that was really awesome was by the time we got back from our honeymoon he was ready to meet us to show us all our photos! We highly recommend Chris Belli.

    We were extremely happy with Christopher's work from day one. He provided us with a ton of great information and was extremely helpful in planning our big day. In the beginning, he told us that he liked to tell the story of our day with his photographs and that is exactly what he did. The photographs were amazing - very candid and really just brought out our personalities in them. Our album turned out really great as well, we could not have been happier with his work.

    We first met with Chris to discuss our wedding and instantly knew we wanted to hire him to photograph our wedding. Chris was kind, patient, personable, and thorough. Most importantly our family members observed how patient and respectful Chris and his staff was. He was reasonably priced and I absolutely love my pictures and wedding book. Highly recommended!!!
