Testimonials

Christopher String is a sincere pleasure to work with. Upon meeting him, he really makes whoever he is photographing feel at ease, and directs his subject in a very fluid manner; his photos are exquisite!

Each album I’ve seen of his tells a candid story and steers clear of the traditional “posed look.” As a wedding/event planner in NYC, and someone who interacts with photographers on a frequent basis, Chris is at the top of my list of favorites and I would recommend him to anyone. I knew I could trust him to capture the day in the exact narrative I was looking for, and sure enough, he did just that.

From Amy (née Morimoto) and Erwan Bonnaud’s Wedding

Since I first shot with Chris in 2011 for Judith Ripka he has remained one of my favorite photographers. Not only for his signature style but because of the vision behind the lens. He always pushes me to take things further than just a basic pose, all while gently directing and coaxing out the best side of me. You will be given your most flattering, and timeless pictures with Chris. He is professional, reliable, and an artist in every sense. You can also expect a finished product in a timely manner.

From Megan McInerney

“I went with Christopher String Photography for my wedding last month. He much surpassed me and my husband’s expectations.  Not only was he confident behind the lens, he also made us feel comfortable while taking pictures that reflected moments in time and our personalities.  As an expecting bride, I felt beautiful and proud of the photos themselves.  We are satisfied with the service, experience and product.  I would definitely recommend Christopher String Photography for any event.”
