Chris was a dream to work with from the moment we had our first call. We lived in Texas while planning our wedding in Ohio. He was very accommodating of schedules and time differen...
ce throughout planning and both our moms fell in love with him when they met him.
He was so comfortable to be around when we were all getting ready in my hotel room and he captured so many special moments. We were a little worried about how it would feel to have a photographer in such an intimate space with us but it was like he was part of our family and we’d known him for ages so everyone was comfortable!! My wedding party also raved about him. His friend Carl who also assisted with photographing the groom and his party was hit! The photos look beautiful and we all looked so happy, and might I add, gorgeous! We hit the jackpot with Chris and you will too. Oh and our photos ended up in the Columbus Wedding Magazine! You want Chris to photograph your wedding!!!
Chris is the absolute best photographer! We used him for our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. He was with us our entire wedding day capturing every moment! He ...
makes you feel so comfortable – we all often forgot that the camera was even there. He is 100% worth every penny. I highly recommend Chris!
Chris was recommended to me by a colleague, and we are so very grateful for the suggestion. Chris was absolutely wonderful to work with. He was very professional and had a great ey...
e. He really, truly knows what he is doing. We planned to take our pictures outside but a storm forced us to change our plans last minute. We ended up taking pictures at our reception lobby and they turned out perfect. They were everything we wanted and more. There is not a bad picture in the bunch. We are beyond thrilled at the result and will be going with him anytime we need or want photographs taken in the future. Thank you so much Chris - we are beyond grateful!
We decided to hire Chris for our wedding in May 2014 because of the work he featured on his website (http://www.keelsphotography.com/) and blog, especially the non-posed stuff. We ...
thought it set him apart from other local photographers.
In terms of the process, we were impressed every step of the way. Chris politely guided us through picking a package that fit both our time frame and stayed within our budget. He put us through the paces in the engagement photo session and handled all the planning changes leading up to the wedding. On the day of the wedding, he was fantastic. We had him and his assistant running around all day and they captured far more than we expected. He was a hit amongst our family/friends and some asked for his contact info shortly thereafter.
Having the pictures now, we can say without a doubt, that Chris Keels was the best photographer for our wedding! Thanks Chris!
-Kathy & Dave Schepow!
Best photographer EVER! He was amazing. Expensive, but worth the money. You'll have your pictures forever!
Chris and Tricia Keels are a gifted couple. They work very well together under the extreme pressure and quick pace of the wedding day. We had an engagement photo session to get ...
a feel for what it's like to be in front of the camera and it turned out being one of THE BEST DATES my Fiance and i ever had. Looking into the camera with Chris behind the lens is a great feeling. He is calm, respectful, supportive, creative, easy to be around and uses his amazing talented eye to capture the feeling and emotion of his subjects. Our breath was taken away when we first saw our engagement photos - each one was a true work of art! They were amazing on our wedding day, amidst all the chaos, people, moving between locations - FABULOUS! I'd recommend them with 6 stars if that was an option!!! You're expectations will be far surpassed, check out their website!
Chris and Tricia have a gift for capturing the emotion of the day. We could not have been happier with our wedding photos. We were moved to happy tears the first time we saw them. ...
They are particularly good at putting those who aren't used to being in front of the camera at ease. Aside from being amazing photographers, Chris and Tricia are just great people and an absolute joy to be around.
