CMC Photography

Amazing photographer!!! There is nothing bad I could say about him! He has a fabulous eye for what he does, is always willing to go the extra mile and make sure our photos are not just ordinary. We recently got married on a stormy day, and we have some of the best photos I’ve seen!!! The clouds look angry but fantastic, and our shots out in the rain are beautiful. Everyone who has seen our photos has commented that they are stunning. Great personality and super fun and easy to work with. My guests loved him and he fit in just like family at our wedding. We have only seen 2 sneak peak photos but they are perfection. I could not have asked for our wedding day photos to be any better. Highly recommended!

Christopher Cooke, what can I tell you about Christopher. What is another word for awesome? I know… CHRISTOPHER $&#%@ COOKE!
He is great to work with and makes sure your photos come out great. At the wedding he was double checking make-​up and hair to make sure I (the bride) looked perfect in the photos. And he pinned the flowers for the groomsmen. Everyone wanted to book him for their events. Not only did I get great a photographer, I made a great friend.
Christopher Cooke, you’ll my photographer for life!

Chris photographed our wedding back in 2010. Just a few months ago, we moved and I lost our wedding photo CD during the move. I emailed him to see what my options were. He replied within minutes, re-​uploaded the hundreds of photos from our wedding so I could download them and save them on my computer. I think that level of service is unheard of these days! It shows that he goes the extra distance, provides unparallelled service, and has great character. I am truly blown away by what he did. Not to mention, he takes breathtaking photos. Hire him if you want gorgeous pictures to capture your special day and truly remarkable service (even years down the line).

I cannot say enough great things about Chris. He was so patient and accommodating during the process of my wedding. He made my very shy groom feel comfortable in front of the camera. Every picture he took was gorgeous and really captured the spirit of the day. I want to have another event just so he can take my picture again! He is definitely great at what he does!

INCREDIBLE!!! Chris photographed our engagement photos and wedding (this weekend) and did an amazing job! He kept everyone comfortable and laughing all night. So great to work with someone on your «big day» that truly loves their job. After seeing our teasers he’s sent I’m so excited to see the rest of his work. I could never thank you enough. You definitely deserve all of your success and more!!! Everyone needs to book this man!

Christopher is amazing! He is personal, funny, friendly, charming, professional and extremely talented. Christopher takes the time to get to know you which makes for an extremely personal and wonderful wedding photography experience. You can feel the amount of pride and love he puts into his work in every photo!!! I would recommend Christopher Cooke Photography to any bride and groom in a heartbeat.

Chris did our family pictures and I AM IN LOVE with them. I have plastered them all over my house. He gave me exactly what I wanted. I will be using his services again in the future!!!

Chris is amazing!!!
You will not find a better photographer than Chris. His wedding pictures were absolutely unreal. His creativity and artistic spin is unparalleled. I will guarantee you that you will not be disappointed.
He was professional, and funny. Makes you feel completely comfortable while shooting and posing in uncomfortable situations! He takes so many pictures and has all of the updated tools to make everyone look the way that they feel!
He also has a photo booth with props that shoot out 2 sets of pictures, one for the bride and groom to keep and one for the guests to keep. He does uplighting and also projected our monogram onto the dance floor!
He did our engagement photos and our wedding! He was fast and got through all of our family photos in amazing time and he last easy edited a preview photo for us to gush over until the rest are ready.
My favorite thing about him was his direction! Most photographers just shoot and let you lead, he tells you exactly what face to make, he’ll stop shooting and move a piece of hair out of your face, he will angle you right and take 100 pictures until he gets the one he wants! He never disappoints!

Chris was the second shooter for my wedding two weeks ago. I had never met him before the day of the wedding, but boy his personality makes you warm right up to him really fast! He was such a joy to work with, and his creativity and attitude were infectious! I cannot wait to see the images that he captured, and I can’t say enough good things about him!

I could never say enough good things about Chris and his business. He was an absolute pleasure to work with right from day 1!
His packages include an engagement session, which was VERY helpful to get to know each other, and he will teach you to pose in the ways that make you look your best. He is extremely creative and innovative with his shots, and it shows in his images
I was extremely comfortable working with Chris, and he made the entire process so fun. Do yourself a favor, and Book CHRIS COOKE!

Chris is an excellent photographer. He’s very laid back and knows how to lighten up the mood so everyone enjoys themselves. I had several people from my wedding say they don’t like posing for pics, but he made it fun and not a chore. I brought him to Texas from California and a couple guests already want him to come back and do their events! My husband HATES pics and is very hard to get to smile, but Chris had him laughing the whole time. Chris’ s personality gets along with everyone and he is so creative. You will not be disappointed by going with him. Pictures are an investment and you get what you pay for. He’s worth every penny and more! !! I can’t say enough good things about the experience.

Chris is so much fun and a great photographer too! We really enjoyed having Chris shoot our wedding at Villa Privata (a first for him). I was so impressed with the incredible shots we got for his first time seeing the venue. We trusted him which is why we hired him and he most definitely executed. He made sure to get all the important shots as quickly as possible so we would have time for our photos since we didnt do a first look. I recommend Chris! He wont let you down!

Chris! Wedding Photographer, Foodie, Real person! We absolutely LOVED working with Chris! My mom and I discovered Chris at the Hiddenbrooke Wedding Faire a few years ago and loved his work but never dreamed we would be able to work with him. Chris took part in an amazing contest that we were luck enough to to win his services in and we could not feel more lucky! We clicked so well with Chris throughout this entire process. He is fun and witty and creates the most amazing pictures you could imagine!
We love that he is so local we run into him at the local grocery. OH and he loves Disney just as much as me. It helps to connect with your photographer but the final product it so beautiful you have to see his work for yourself. I encourage you to reach out to him and speak to him. he will capture all those special moments for you. I am so thrilled he was part of my dream team and that I can drop his name when people ask me who did my wedding photos.

Chris is the best wedding photographer a bride could ask for. My husband and I met with him initially to see if we wanted him to photograph our wedding and we knew instantaneously that he was the one! He is a fun loving guy who knows his stuff. We took engagement pictures in 2 locations that were new to Chris yet he managed to capture some amazing moments!
Chris then photographed our wedding and was amazing! He does not miss a single detail! He took GREAT care of my dress, accessories, and of me! I hate taking pictures and Chris managed to make me feel comfortable. His sense of humor can make anyone genuinely laugh! We also got the photo-​booth and I would recommend it to anyone! It was a HUGE hit at the wedding and Chris immediately gave us a flash drive of all the photos so we could look them over on our honeymoon!
I have nothing but GREAT things to say about CMC-​photography, and I can’t wait to see the amazing photos! Thank you Chris!!!

My wife Nic and i just had our wedding in Monterey and had Chris as our photog ! I don’t know where to begin to tell you about his awesome’ness !! Not only is he professional, funny, great with family he is working with but his skills and a great eye exceeded our expectations! All I can say is Wow ! A must hire for your future wedding !!

Chris was the best wedding photographer i could have asked for! His pictures are fantastic, he is super fun to work with AND you get to see the product nearly instantaneously! MY fiancé and I started by taking engagement pictures with him in san francisco. Although the place we were attempting to take pictures in was closed, he still made the location work. We had a great time without having that «contrived, smile, chessey» feeling you can get when taking pix.
For the actual wedding day, him and his crew were at my house to get pix of all of the little details. His staff was completely friendly. When it came time to take the bridal party pictures he made that as short and sweet as possible for everyone so that we could still enjoyn the wedding. Some photographers can ruin a wedding by dictating the time and crowd. Chris couldn’t be further from that type of photographer!!! For us, his company was so enjoyable it was almost as though he was a guest we had invited… except he was a guest that was working his butt off! He is extremely flexible and accommodating to whatever it is that you are looking for. During the reception, Chris had a laptop with him that he set up that showed some of the pictures from our ceremony! So our guests were able to see some of the pictures already.
Chris, Heather and Victor were amazing additions to our wedding!!! I would recommend him to any bride out there that is looking for a great, easy going experience!

Chris was my photographer for my engagement, wedding and trash the dress photos… and he blew my mind and expectations with his talent. I looked at hundreds of photographers and they were either too expensive or just not talented enough. CMC was amazing at my wedding. They were the only vendor that did not make me upset on my big day. Chris paid very close attention to the things that I wouldn’t even imagine. His assistant Vanessa was amazing too! They both complement one another. I have recommended him to everyone!

His photos were amazing, and Chris worked really well on finding a day that worked for both of us to do a photo shoot. He suggested a wonderful place to do the shoot and everything went really well, he even got my little guy to smile!

If you are looking for and AMAZING wedding/​engagment photography experience– you should absoultely book CMC Photography. My husband and I had an engagment session as well as our wedding photos with this company and I could not have dreamed up better pictures! I have been in several weddings and their photographers do not compare to CMC… the creativity, professionalism and photo quality is beyond comparison. I will highly recommend CMC photography to anyone I know. and will use them again in the future for my own personal photos. Thank you CMC. you made our wedding day very memorable!

His pictures are great. He was the 2^nd shooter under Ed Pingol who is amazing if you can afford him. Chris’s prices start around $ 3k without travel of course. If it is your priority and in your budget, Chris does shoot beautiful pictures, but always meet your photographer to get a sense of personality and check out all your options of course.
