Thank you Chris
I don’t even know where to start when saying how great Chris was as our wedding photographer. First of all, Chris is a TRUE professional at everything that he does. I’ve seen so many professional photos where there is too much flash or somehow the lighting is off but Chris absolutely NAILED IT with all of our photos, even in challenging lighting indoors, outdoors, low light, etc.I don’t know how he does it! In addition, he has an excellent eye for locations to take photos and how to help me and my husband pose for absolutely beautiful and natural-looking photos. His editing was also great and it was super easy to access our photos. I can say that he is a truly skilled professional in every aspect of what he does.
In addition, Chris is an incredibly kind person and was SO pleasant to work with. Not only did Chris work very closely with us leading up to the wedding to fully understand our vision, he was also SO great to work with on the day of and he got my husband to smile and pose for lots of photos (which is a huge feat in itself, he usually is over it after a few minutes). As part of the wedding package, Chris offered an engagement photo shoot, which we did at Green Lakes State Park, and these photos came out really really incredible. Also, it was great that Chris taught us how to pose so we would not feel awkward posing for photos on our wedding day and ensured that our wedding photos would come out great as well.
On the day of the wedding, Chris was super accommodating about making sure we got all the family photos and portraits we wanted. He made sure everything went seamless and like I mentioned he made sure our pictures came out absolutely incredible.
Lastly, Chris has an excellent reputation in the local wedding industry - literally every other vendor I worked with (from the florist to wedding planner to makeup) asked who my photographer is and said "OMG you are so lucky, Chris is the best!!" It was so great to see that everyone who has worked with him can see how excellent his work is.
Once again, I cannot say enough good things about Chris. He was amazing to work with and our photos came out so incredible.

Amazing photos and amazing personality
Chris was amazing to work with! Super professional and very organized. He was very helpful in keeping us on track with time and making sure he got every important shot along the way. We hired Chris because we wanted a lot of candid photos and boy did he deliver!! He was fun to work with and I recommend him to anyone who wants someone to capture the feeling of our event! It’s like reliving our wedding every time we look through photos!Chris was amazing to work with! Super professional and very organized.

Wonderful Experience
Chris at The Story Photography was amazing to work with. We got married at a historic theater which made lighting tricky as there was no natural light. Chris did such an amazing job with our pictures, especially given that unique situation and we were so happy with how all of our pictures came out. He is clearly passionate about what he does and has a ton of experience to back it up. The candid moments he was able to get on camera were amazing too...he went above and beyond! Chris collaborated so well with us to make sure that our vision from our engagement photos through to our wedding day photos were exactly what we wanted. We would highly recommend him!Chris at The Story Photography was amazing to work with. We got married at a historic theater which made lighting tricky as there was no natural light.

Exceptional and Incredible Photographer
We met Chris back in 2019 when we booked him for our wedding. The entire planning process with him was phenomenal. He helped us navigate our postponement with ease, handled challenges from others with grace, and kept me calm throughout the entire process. He showed up at our door ready for our wedding and did an exquisite job. He was calm, attentive, creative and made this nervous bride feel at ease. After our ceremony he brought us over to the lake for some scenic pictures of just the two of us and it was great to have a few moments of quiet, which I think Chris knew we needed. He captured the entire day beautifully and with such grace. He truly kept me and my husband feeling so calm and happy that day and we can’t thank him enough for all he did to make our day feel so special.

Captured The Magic Perfectly!
Chris went above and beyond our expectations as our wedding photographer in Ithaca, NY. It was incredibly easy to set up communication with him months before our wedding, especially as we planned our wedding 100% virtually.
He was very knowledgable about our venue, and was accepting of our requested shots throughout the day, while having his own artistic suggestions. His photographs captured the magic of the day (and then some), while his editing style kept the photos looking natural, but refined.
He blended into the background during the day and wasn't a distraction for us or our guest at the ceremony or reception while capturing every moment and the energy of the day perfectly.
Most importantly, he was prompt with getting the prints to us just a few weeks after the wedding.Chris went above and beyond our expectations as our wedding photographer in Ithaca, NY.

Chris is absolutely the best!
Chris was truly the best, we absolutely loved our experience working with him! He captured all of the big and little moments and emotions from our wedding day, and I'm still pouring over his beautiful photos.
He was extremely organized and responsive leading up to our wedding - even when we had to change our venue three weeks beforehand due to Covid.
Like a lot of men, my husband wasn't sure about the idea of a photoshoot, and Chris had immediately put him at ease and made it fun.
We especially appreciated his professional, calming demeanor during such a busy day. He also turned around our photos very quickly, so we were able to see them during our honeymoon!

We are SO happy that we went with The Story Photography for our wedding photographer! Chris was extremely responsive, often times replying to my messages within minutes. He also took the time to get to know us and what kind of pictures we were looking for. Both he and the second photographer he brought with him, Jessica, were very laid back and fun to work with, and the pictures they took were all absolutely stunning. And this was no easy feat because typically my husband and I are goofy and not very photogenic, but Chris gave us a lot of advice on how to pose and the pictures came out amazing! I also couldn't believe how quickly he sent me the online gallery - we had hundreds and hundreds of pictures within two weeks of our wedding. I highly recommend The Story Photography!!We are SO happy that we went with The Story Photography for our wedding photographer!

The very first time my husband and I saw the website for The Story Photography, we knew that Chris was the right wedding photographer for us. The couples in his pictures looked as comfortable and happy as we hoped we would be on our wedding day. You could just tell that he was capturing real emotion, not just in the wedding party but in all of the guests. We probably had the highest possible expectations of Chris, and he did not disappoint!
Chris is a professional, experienced, and talented wedding photographer with an amazing eye for special moments. He’s also a great guy... and possibly a ninja. He got pictures of moments even WE had never witnessed. He practically clambered into a lake to get a stunning long shot for our portraits. The man literally chased us down on the highway after the ceremony so that he and his co-photographer, Heather (also amazing), could get a picture of us in the back of our getaway car. And he was completely friendly, efficient, and unobtrusive the whole time. I think our day actually ran more smoothly because he was there to guide us effortlessly through it all.
Nor are rumors of Chris’s turnaround exaggerated. He wrote back to most of our emails within minutes. He once actually apologized for a reply that had been “delayed” by a few hours because, and I quote, “I just got in from photographing another event this evening.” He got us our engagement pictures only 3 days after the shoot, and we had ALL of our fully edited wedding pictures within 10 DAYS of the wedding. Not to mention, he’d photographed two other weddings just on our wedding weekend!!
Having run on for far too long, I haven’t said nearly enough, so I’ll just say this. Chris will give you wedding photos that you’ll treasure lifelong, so beautiful and touching that your descendants will want to hang them on their walls. If that’s something you want, choose The Story Photography.

We were beyond pleased with our experience working with Chris. Chris was so incredibly easy to work with, his experience and organization were so appreciated throughout the planning process. Having only spoken to Chris over the phone, meeting him in person on the morning of the wedding could have been awkward or nerve-wracking, however Chris was so calm, patient, and not intrusive at all. He let the events of the morning happen so naturally all while capturing beautiful moments. Chris got up a blog post shortly after our wedding day and it brought so much joy to us as we read through his sweet commentary and got a glimpse at some of the great shots he took. I had heard from friends that putting together the wedding album was the worst part of wedding pictures and many still haven’t put theirs together over 2 years later. Chris made this process super easy by pulling together the pictures he thought worked best and then allowing us to make edits. It was so much less daunting then starting from a blank canvas. We received our album two months after the wedding and I love looking through the beautiful book often. I lost my grandmother unexpectedly six months after our wedding and am so so thankful Chris captured so many beautiful shots of her enjoying the day. We had put together a small album for my grandparents of pictures Chris took and the book made her so happy. She loved that day and thanks to Chris, I have pictures of our last family event that I will cherish forever. Chris in an amazing photographer and an authentic person.

As cliche as this sounds, Chris 100% captured the most beautiful day of our lives. His professionalism, easy going manner and ability to just know the perfect picture really made it so easy for us. We can't thank Chris enough for documenting every single moment of our wedding. I'm still in awe that we not only have sooooo many beautiful portrait pictures but also how Chris captured every single crazy, funny and loving moment from that day. From the moment the bridal party started to get ready, to the beautiful boat ride after the ceremony, all the way up to the after party. Thank you Chris, we seriously can't thank you enough!As cliche as this sounds, Chris 100% captured the most beautiful day of our lives.

Chris was an absolute PLEASURE to work with. I can not say it enough. He came to Cape Cod all the way from NY to shoot our wedding. And he completely worked around our budget and our preferences. We are both more on the shy side when it comes to being photographed, Chris made us feel so comfortable and we felt at the end of the day that we had not only found a great photographer- but also a friend. The photos are another EXCEPTIONAL thing from Chris. From the engagement shoot to the wedding day pictures- I was blown away with his vision and the way he captured our special day. We wanted the portraits to be mostly candids and not take much time away from the wedding- Chris was amazing at creating a timeline so that we were able to make our cocktail hour. Completely blown away and would recommend Chris to any couple looking for amazing photos. Great guy, great photographer. You will not be disappointed!Chris was an absolute PLEASURE to work with.

Chris is absolutely fantastic!! He captures your entire day and other than the pre-ceremony photos, you would never know he is there and you are just in shock as you go through your photos wondering how he did it!!! I am in love with my wedding and engagement photos and would recommend Chris to anyone. Knowing that I will have these memories forever makes my heart swell with joy. The quality Chris provides in the photos is unbelievable. His photos help me relive the best day of my life every time I look at them :) which is quite often! Chris is extremely flexible and really does put you first for your big day. I never felt like he didn't want to be there or that he was rushing to finish at the end. He is passionate about what he does and you can just see it on his face when he gets that "great shot" how excited he is and just can't wait to show you. He arrived when we wanted him to and stayed until the very end when we had our sparkler send off. The photos are just incredible. Thank you Chris for everything!Chris is absolutely fantastic!!

Chris Szulwach, the Story Photography, will be our photographer for life. You will be inundated with reviews, and portfolios and fret over who one to choose. Relax. You found him. There are so many great photographers, no doubt. You want a photographer that will capture the essence of you, your love, and all the special moments that might go unnoticed, or become a forgotten memory if not captured on camera. Chris will capture them. There is so much happening on the big day that's it's impossible to see and absorb everything as it happens. You want photos you can proudly share far and wide, in cyber space, and on your wall space. You will get those, but you will also get a photographer who is extremely responsive, who will listen to your ideas and help make your vision a reality. Who will literally walk waist deep in a lake to capture a moment you envision. The only problem I have now is the long list of events I want him to capture for us. I wish we could bring him on our honeymoon!Chris Szulwach, the Story Photography, will be our photographer for life. You will be inundated with reviews, and portfolios and fret over who one to choose. Relax. You found him. There are so many great photographers, no doubt. You want a photographer that will capture the essence of you, your love, and all the special moments that might go unnoticed, or become a forgotten memory if not captured on camera. Chris will capture them. There is so much happening on the big day that's it's impossible to see and absorb everything as it happens. You want photos you can proudly share far and wide, in cyber space, and on your wall space. You will get those, but you will also get a photographer who is extremely responsive, who will listen to your ideas and help make your vision a reality. Who will literally walk waist deep in a lake to capture a moment you envision. The only problem I have now is the long list of events I want him to capture for us. I wish we could bring him on our honeymoon! -

Chris is excellent! EXTREMELY RESPONSIVE!! Not enough words to explain how awesome it is to send a message out to a vendor and have a near immediate response. And he follows up too if he doesn't hear from you, which is extremely key for someone like me who tends to procrastinate and was sooo disorganized when it came to planning my wedding... I was changing plans for pictures literally the day before my wedding and Chris was just like, "Ok no problem, changes made!" He is easy-going and excellent at what he does. My wedding photos are awesome, he caught SO MANY amazing candid moments, and so much of the laughter/fun that went on that day. I don't even know how we have so many different views of our first dance, between Chris and the 2nd photographer they literally hit every single angle possible! It's incredible. And our formal portraits are great too but I stupidly wanted to rush through all the posed group photos and family photos to get to the cocktail hour and the "fun", and he did exactly what I asked for, and now my only regret is not slowing down instead and getting a few more portraits/group shots! I have nearly 1000 amazing photos, and now I want even more haha, that's how great my photos are. And lastly, Chris is the definition of the word EFFICIENT. He had all of our wedding photos edited and uploaded to a link for us to view just 2 weeks after our wedding day, and he posts sneak peeks on his blog within days of the event. I have no idea where he finds the time. It took me 3 months just to sort through and post my favorite pics on Facebook! Overall, you're in great hands with Chris. He's everywhere at your wedding and yet you have no idea he's there. There are so many pictures but I genuinely don't remember seeing him outside of the formal portraits. He's like a photo ninja. Thanks again Chris for the excellent work!Chris is excellent! EXTREMELY RESPONSIVE!!

Chris is an exceptionally professional, talented, and diligent photographer. Our wedding was on a Saturday in June and preview photos were posted the next day and we received our entire digital album on that following Thursday.
Chris made everyone feel comfortable and at ease as he worked and took unique and beautiful shots that truly captured "us" and our family. The happy tears, the smiles, and kids laughing are all now beautiful memories we will have for a lifetime. My husband and our family have been raving over every photo.
I cannot stress enough that if you're looking for a photographer, you've found him! The Costello's cannot thank you enough for these treasures!Chris is an exceptionally professional, talented, and diligent photographer.

Chris perfectly captured our wedding day and engagement. He was easily accessible and quickly responded to all of our emails. His turnaround time is awesome- he got our photos to us less about three days after the wedding! He has a calming presence, helping us relax in front if the camera and making us laugh. Also, when some of my family didn't show on time for photos before the ceremony, he was incredibly flexible and made the situation work to make sure we got our shots. More than anything, Chris took the time to get to know us and helped tell our story through his work.
Our friends and family cannot stop raving about how beautiful the photos are. He has a really incredible eye for great shots and works hard to capture all the candid, meaningful moments. In looking back at our pictures, anyone can see the emotion from our day.Chris perfectly captured our wedding day and engagement. He was easily accessible and quickly responded to all of our emails.

We were a little nervous as we had a mixed culture wedding (Pakistani & American). But Chris took all the worries away and did an amazing job!! He worked well with us before and during the wedding and was great dealing with our very vocal guests! The photos came out amazing and he had a perfect sight for what we were looking for! Overall, I would use Chris over again and definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone!We were a little nervous as we had a mixed culture wedding (Pakistani & American).

Picking The Story Photography was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. We didn’t quite know what we were looking for when choosing a photographer. In the end we went for someone who we felt a connection with (after all you will spend much of your day with your photographer), liked their style of photography/quality and was responsive to inquiries. Chris is an absolute professional and very good at what he does. His technical skills are excellent and he was able to capture all of the special and subtle moments from our wedding day. He was very easy to work with - organized, experienced, responsive and an overall nice guy. We were so happy with the pictures and are reliving the entire wedding through his gorgeous pictures that were available shortly after the wedding. I highly recommend The Story Photography!Picking The Story Photography was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding.

Chris is very nice and he has a very impressive turn around time. He always replies emails promptly. That's very important when you are stressed during wedding preparation!
He's very organized and patient. We revised the wedding day timeline several times.
His pictures are absolutely stunning. Really love what he captured. You can see this point from his blog.Chris is very nice and he has a very impressive turn around time. He always replies emails promptly. That's very important when you are stressed during wedding preparation!

Chris was absolutely fantastic! He is an amazing person with such a huge talent. He really captures all of the important pieces in the wedding without you even telling him. He got some amazing pictures of things I never asked for that mean so much! His photo quality is quite impressive! We still can't believe how amazing and clear they are! He is able to capture perfect moments to cherish forever. We are so thankful and highly recommend him to everyone! What a gift he has.Chris was absolutely fantastic!
