This approach produces natural, timeless images that feel honest and alive, and that couples return to year after year. What makes his approach special is the emphasis on storytelling and atmosphere. Christo watches for the small gestures — a glance, a laugh, a quiet pause — and composes images that reflect the mood and details of the day. His visual style balances candid reportage with thoughtful composition, so you receive a collection of photographs that are both documentary and beautifully composed. How Christo works with couples is straightforward and personal. He starts by listening: understanding what matters to you, the flow of your day, and the people who will be there. He supports practical planning around light and timing and aims to make portraits feel relaxed, fast and enjoyable. On the wedding day he keeps things calm and efficient, creating space for emotions to unfold naturally while ensuring the important moments are captured.
