We don’t take just pictures, we make Emotion Artistry

In my world of photography, every emotion is unfiltered, every scene is drenched in truth, and every photograph resonates with the stories untold.

This gallery is a sanctum where love’s raw power and pure joy are not just captured, but deeply felt and eternally preserved.

As you wander through these moments, feel the pulse of genuine emotions that I have been privileged to witness and frame—a father’s tear, a mother’s embrace, a lover’s laughter. It’s here, in this celebration of realness, that your heartbeats become the art that hangs on every wall of memory. Explore more wedding photos.

Hi, I’m Chris Pritchard!

The creative founder behind Chris Pritchard Studios (formerly Pritchard Photography). I am beyond thrilled to be here. I believe I’ve been given a talent to share the beauty of the world.

I’ve always been inspired by cinematography and I wanted to develop a style that conveys that feeling. Through my way of seeing things, I’ve been able to forge a journey in chasing this beauty. Chasing the next best shot and for me, that begin in the early 2000’s. I am a “maker”, my gift has been in my art, from my college days in art history, illustration and graphic design. I have been making images or art in some form or another. Photography became my paintbrush with beautiful human stories that became my canvas.

Through the years, my path has been adorned with accolades, including multiple Brides Choice Awards, prestigious nods and Bronze Medalist: Photographic Open Competition International Photographic Competition as well as, Best of Show from the Professional Photographers Association of New England (PPANE) and the Professional Photographers of Western Michigan (PPWM) as one of the top 5 wedding photographers. Current member of the Professional Photographers Associations (PPA) and Professional Photographers of California (PPC).
