We highly recommend Chris and Wendy for all of your photography needs. They make things fun, exciting and beautiful.

I'm not sure where to even begin with Wendy and Chris...not only have I found incredible photographers for my business and one day for my wedding, family portraits and more but I have found some of my closest friends in them. There are many photographers out there to choose from but I LOVE how authentic and in love with their profession they are. They really know how to capture the heart of a business. My biggest job as a business owner is to convey the right image and I can say that they nail it 100% of the time. They are consistent, on time and completely thorough. No question some of the best photographers in SD. Thank you Chris and Wendy for being so amazing! Love and appreciate all you have done for myself and Tailored Hair for Men!!! read more

Chris and Wendy take a very personal approach to photographing your wedding. From a first meeting where they asked us all about our lives--how we met, our favorite things to do together, how we fell in love--to making sure we were comfortable at the engagement shoot, to capturing every special moment on the wedding day, Chris and Wendy are intimately involved and invested in making your day memorable and beautiful. The pictures were beyond our expectation--so many gorgeous photos that help us relive our beautiful day. Chris and Wendy are professional and extremely talented. Also, it's really special to work with a married couple who are fulfilling their dream together as you set out on your own adventure of marriage! I recommend Chris and Wendy to all my engaged friends! Chris and Wendy are our photographers for life! read more

beautiful team and beautiful work! Wendy and Chris are so fun to work with and can really capture people's essence. They make the shoot fun and exciting! I've worked them two times now and have loved both experiences. They are professional, talented, and quick to share sneak peaks (my favorite). I could not recommend a better team for weddings/editorials/senior pictures/headshots. Amazing, amazing work! read more

Well what can I say, Chris and Wendy photography was the smoothest part of our wedding. With every other vendor we worked with, from caterer to videographer, there was some kind of hiccup along the way. Not Chris and Wendy, they were perfect, and an absolute delight to work with every step of the way. Even when we had last minute changes, Chris and Wendy made it happen. Wendy is very artistic and captured some amazing shots. Even the videographer used her poses and direction to capture artsy video. If it wasn't for her, our video would have been dull. Also, her freindly personality made us comfortable around her. Chris handled more of the business side of things, and he was very proffessional. Overall, we were very happy with Chirs and Wendy. We felt confident in their abilities, and their experience showed. Don't hesitate to hire them! read more

Chris and Wendy are amazing photographers and amazing people. They really took the time to get to know us, our likes and personalities, and they really just let us be ourselves during the engagement shoot and on wedding day, and found a way to make us look really great (seriously, if you asked us to look at the camera and smile, we'd both make horrendously funny faces). They managed to be both extremely professional and feel like our new best friends at the same time. We recommend Chris and Wendy to all our friends and family who may need a photographer for ANYTHING! read more

First off, you have to understand going in that when you sign up with Chris and Wendy that you are getting the absolute best value that money can buy. I would recommend them for any and all photography needs that you will ever have again. I got married two months ago, and at first my fiance and I chose them because they impressed us by replying to our email with a personal video message they made just for us! We met up with them at a soda shop and they wowed us with their warmth and honesty. Just the icing on the cake was that they were from Portland, OR, a place we had recently moved to. Plus, they were two for the price of one, which we thought was a fabulous deal. They explained to us what they were about, and seemed to know the exact questions to ask us about what we wanted, and we left our first meeting, and every other Skype meeting held, feeling very satisfied that we had both communicated very clearly and were having a complete understanding about what we were going to get out of our experience with them. Our particular tastes demanded an 'fly on the wall' approach to photos that day, in all moments save for posed family photos, which I knew in advance that my large Mexican/Italian family would need a lot of strict and loud directions. Obviously, my family like many families, is not devoid of drama, and I knew that my wedding day was going to be a rocky one. I don't know how I got through without Wendy especially. She was a good sport when my mom had the makeup artist set her up in the MIDDLE of the bridal room, blocking a good chunk of my 'getting ready' shots. I had made known to Wendy beforehand that these were important to me, and she made it happen through all odds. Her husband went off to take photos of my fiancee, and they made magic where the most stressful part of the day happen, and we got some glorious photos through some witchcraft of theirs, I still don't know! They had previously asked us on numerous occasions if they were going to be the only photographers there and my fiance and I had repeatedly assured them that they were. Lo and behold once we get to the ceremony site, there's idiot cousin Mike with his mother's Canon getting in their way everywhere! Even through this embarrassing obstacle (I had my brother tackle him as soon as I got wind of this), we still got awesome walking down the aisle shots through more Chris and Wendy magic talent. After the ceremony during posed family photos, Chris and Wendy pull out a ladder from their top hat and start acting like ringmasters, as was EXACTLY the right timing to do so. For the most part, it goes off swimmingly and right on schedule. Then my mom starts getting fussy with me about random family friends not having their chance at photos with the bride and groom (when this was supposed be a closed family picture time). I'm not awesome with posed photos anyway, and my stress levels shoot through the roof, I whisper to my hubby that I'm getting overwhelmed. He passes the message on to Chris, and amazingly before my eyes, he and Wendy herd all my family away from me within seconds! It was like a miracle! We got couples photos after that, which turned out fitting for a magazine catalog, if I do say so myself. All credit goes to them, I assure you, because I've never been very photogenic. All and all, our experience with them was fantastic. When we spoke, they listened, they were intuitive and gracious, and everything we needed them to be, when we needed them to be it. They seemed very concerned with making us feel comfortable, and even after our wedding, met up with us to get ice cream and hear about the honeymoon. These are strangers to us, mind you! But not anymore, that's for sure. They went out of their way to make a great time and comfortable atmosphere for us. My money was never spent better, and if I could afford to pay them every day for the rest of my life I would, because their pictures are priceless and our precious memories will live on forever now, thanks to them. read more

Don't look any further! Chris and Wendy are part of what made our wedding day so special! They were able to capture every moment perfectly and every single picture turned out phenomenal. I can't say enough good things about Chris and Wendy. As our wedding was a destination wedding, we were unable to meet Chris and Wendy in person before our wedding day (although we did Skype a few times). However, when we met on our wedding day, it was as though we had known them for a long time. They made us feel so comfortable and were able work around our timeline flawlessly. We loved Chris and Wendy so much, we may just have to renew our vows in a few years to let them work their magic with us once more! read more

I have had the pleasure of working with Chris and Wendy on multiple occasions and needless to say they are absolutely amazing! They make you feel extremely comfortable and they make taking pictures so much fun! The pictures come out beautiful and they get them to you in basically no time at all! I will for sure be a repeat customer of theirs! read more

See all

When we first embarked on our search for a wedding photographer, budget was our driving force. Chris and Wendy were reasonably priced and flexible to accommodate our needs, yet their finished product is something expected of a vendor costing thousands more. Of course, we feel like we got the better end of the deal! They both were professional, passionate, talented, reliable, and personable. We appreciate how they inquired about our wedding vision and how they captured all the right moments...and then some. Our guests have told us many times how much they loved our photographers. We will recommend them again and again to everyone we know! read more

Loved working with Wendy for a photoshoot this last spring. They have a wonderful way of making you feel comfortable instantly and the pictures are STELLAR! I would highly recommend them for your wedding/event. They do not disappoint! read more

Chris and Wendy are very personal who really get to know the bride and groom to make them feel comfortable. They're genuinely interested in your love story, not just because they want to capture your special day, but because you can tell that they love "love" and want to feel connected to the bride and groom. Their photography work is impeccable. Very creative, clean shots, as well as many classic and candid shots to capture the essence of the day. They take their work seriously to get all the shots you want, and the ones you didn't even know you wanted, and keep a fun-loving attitude throughout the day. They're both extremely talented and keep everything moving along smoothly on your wedding day. Chris and Wendy are very professional, efficient, and creative. Chris connects with the groom as "just one of the guys" and Wendy is someone you want to have a glass of wine with and catch up. We HIGHLY recommend Chris and Wendy. read more
