Chris Geary Photography bio picture

Hello. I'm Chris, a thirty-something documentary wedding photographer based near Reading, Berkshire.

My passion is wedding photography. I love capturing the preparations, the anticipation, the sheer emotion of the ceremony, the first kiss, the laughter of the speeches and the beautiful first dance.

I've loved photography since I was a child. Back then I had a Kodak Retinette IB which I still have although it stopped working years ago. I bought my first film SLR back in 2001 and today I use Nikon D700 bodies with Nikkor 24-70/f2.8, 50/f1.4, 85/f1.4 and 70-200/f2.8 professional lenses. I also love travel photography and I've had the privilege to see some amazing parts of the world... Australia, Thailand, India and Africa to name a few.

I'm a movie and music lover, both of which seem to go hand in hand with a nice glass of wine. I love good food, my favourite of which has to be either Thai or Mexican.

Ten things...  1) I love walks in the country. 2) Chocolate is A Good Thing (TM). 3) Music needs to be heard and ideally felt. 4) I'm a little OCD at times. 5) Jack Bauer never goes to the toilet or charges his mobile. 6) David Palmer needs to be president for real. 7) Tom Yam Goong is amazing, if I had to choose only one thing to eat from now on, that would be it. 8) BT, Hybrid, Elbow, Angus and Julia Stone - all music gods. 9) I can't stand middle lane hoggers. 10) Life is short, embrace it, live it, and do things.

The Waters Family

Aka Madison’s photoshoot! My favourite subject is back, although strangely somewhat less interested in being photographed today. I had to question if this was the real Madison before me but she promptly threw some plastic balls at me and I knew it was her! Despite her apparent semi-reluctance, I think she was more than happy to pose and we got some great shots. I suspect this was somewhat helped by the presence of the TV screen opposite the shooting area so she could check herself out as I took pictures. Vanity is alive and well :D

December 30, 2009 - 15:20 Kate Waters - Thank you so much Chris for the fantastic photographs. You always manage to capture Madison's expressions so well and as she is growing so quickly, they really are photographs to be treasured.
