Chris was punctual, patient, and easy to work with for our headshots. He took us to a spot in Hoboken with versatile lighting and backgrounds, making it easy to capture natural, authentic smiles.

Chris went above & beyond for my son’s first birthday party! The photos came out beautiful & he captured little details and great moments. He also photographed my parents’ con-validation ceremony last August and the photos are so beautiful. I highly recommend him!

Eddie DeCiccoLocal Guide · 20 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Eddie has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
When we started planning our May 2026 wedding, we were not particularly excited about the photography aspect of the day. Posing for hundreds of tacky staged shots seemed an inevitable hurdle (especially as a very camera-awkward couple)...until we saw Christopher's portfolio. We reached out immediately when we saw what our wedding photos COULD be.
While, naturally, plenty of formal shots were taken, they were quick and painless. What truly stood out was his ability to catch the right shot at the right time, capturing not only beautiful, thoughtful compositions, but also the true feel of the day, from morning prep to last dance. Upon receipt of the photos, we laughed...we cried...we "awww"d... Viewing them felt like reading a narrative, allowing us to relive our favorite day.
Aside from his unparalleled expertise with a camera and editing, Christopher is also just a really, really cool guy. He answered our multitude of silly, repetitive questions, but more than that, we truly loved being able to chat and get to know him. His cool, calm presence chilled out the hectic morning of getting ready, and he was organized and professional throughout the planning process. His assistant, Kyle, was also absolutely wonderful!
Go Kayfield or go home!!!

I couldn’t recommend Chris highly enough. He is the perfect blend of professional, affable and talented. I needed a headshot for work and had been putting it off for a while because I dreaded the thought of ‘photoshoot’ focused on me, but I was extremely impressed with Chris’ work on his website and the abundance of five star reviews made me pull the trigger. Boy am I glad I did. Chris is one of those people that has an uncanny knack for putting you at ease and the whole shoot was relaxed and felt more like hanging out. It was exactly the vibe I needed to get over my hang ups. Once I saw the pictures I couldn’t believe how he managed to capture such a perfect reflection of what I wanted my headshot to be.

Christopher has been a joy to work with during three previous corporate networking events (and hopefully many more) in Philadelphia and NYC! Not only responsive, professional, and easy to work with, he is great at capturing and amplifying the energy in the room. We ask for candid shots unless guests specifically request a group photo, and he does a wonderful job showing how fun our business networking events are (and we love to post the photos on our company socials to promote our culture). I would recommend him to anyone looking for corporate or event photography!

Christopher is so down to earth and easy to work with. He helped me with a surprise wedding shoot and even met me beforehand to scout a location. He captured the candids I was hoping for - the expressions of surprise and joy on our guests faces. I am so grateful for the memories Chris captured for us. He gave me space to take the lead, offered some professional suggestions, and captured my vision perfectly. He’s also funny and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!
