Chris Whittam Photography has supported us since the very early days, capturing everything from product and lifestyle photography and dynamic event shoots to rugged location shoots, including a day out climbing waterfalls to get the perfect vodka shot.
Chris has an exceptional ability to understand the personality of an independent business and translate it into powerful, authentic imagery. Over the years, he has captured the identity and energy of a wide range of classical, contemporary, modern, rustic and sometimes downright outrageous brands, always bringing his keen eye, creativity and attention to detail.
He is fantastic to work with, incredibly professional and consistently delivers beyond expectations. We would recommend Chris without hesitation to any business looking for photography that genuinely reflects who they are.

We invited Chris to shoot our event in mid June, what an outstanding set of prints we received!
Chris is very professional and prompt with his time keeping, but also very friendly and comfortable to be around.
Were over the moon with what he has done for us and would highly recommend him.
Thank you Chris!

I appointed Chris to take photographs at a day time and evening company teambuilding event. He has a wonderful enthusiasm for what he does which is infectious but manages to stay very much in the background during the event itself so that you almost forget he is there. What I also really appreciated is his total flexibility - we agreed terms up front but he was more than happy to adapt his service to suit our needs. Would wholeheartedly recommend Chris.

The excellent photos in Chris's portfolio made choosing him to cover our two day event easy. The candid portrait photos of our sit down meal were perfect. The second day's freestyle event was captured to a tee. Would highly recommend him. A very professional and helpful guy who was willing to get whatever shots we requested. Well done Chris.

Chris recently did some photography for my website and social media after being heavily recommended on Facebook. I gave him a really rough idea of what I was looking for and he went above and beyond to make sure I was getting EXACTLY what I needed. He researched my industry and checked my website to see what he needed to do and what I was missing. Thank god for him actually as I had over looked a lot of things!
Not only is he SUPER friendly but so easy to work with, very very efficient and a complete perfectionist.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Chris edited a few photo's for me and I am blown away with the results! One of them was a strip of writing which he said would be quite tricky but he would give it his best shot... well the finished product is amazing, you wouldn't know it was ever there in the first place! He offered a super quick and friendly service, keeping me informed along the way and making sure that every fine detail was perfected. He clearly loves what he does and it shows in his work
