Who the heck is Chris Waud?

Hello, I’m Chris

I'm a 41 years young portrait photographer father of two, based in Lincolnshire. I cannot have my picture taken with out pulling a stupid face, mainly because I hate having my picture taken!  I have a big passion for capturing moments and memories for people which naturally translated in to wedding photography around 11 years ago.

When it comes to wedding photography I have a very simple formula; 

- be friendly, I'm a people person and enjoying chatting to your guests and being a part of a wedding day

- be professional, I'm at a wedding to deliver my very best whether thats in my photography or how I behave. Every wedding is different and I'm there to adapt what I do to compliment your unique day.

- be prepared, theres lots of planning so theres no stresses on your wedding day.

I'm lucky enough to have photographed weddings all over the UK and internationally. If you like the look of my work click the button below.

I have a beautiful story on how I became a photographer…

I love taking photos its something that I have done all my life.

Before I was born my grandmother sadly passed away and my dad wanted to find a way to be closer my grandad.

My grandad was a very creative chap. He did everything from sculpture to photography. So my dad bought himself a camera and taught himself how to use it so he could be closer to his dad. We lost my father back in 2007 so having that connection to both my father and grandfather is very important to me as they have influenced and still influence me in such a way they have allowed me to provide for my own family. Having a “proper” camera around me growing up really sparked my interest in taking photos. Something which I now pass on to my daughter who is very good at taking photos!
