Testimonials.

  • My husband and I were fortunate enough to have Kris as the photographer for our destination wedding in MX, and we are SO thankful that we did! Kris was incredible to work with at every turn and was so well organized from start to finish...He was very professional, collaborative, communicative, and went above and beyond every second of our wedding weekend. We are so grateful to Kris for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is talented, professional, and a joy to work with, look no further!

  • Kris is the best of the best! He always comes to shoots prepared with several shots in mind and is super adaptable to your preferences. He is SO GOOD with the camera and makes his subjects look effortless and natural. Kris is also super patient and never makes me feel rushed when trying to capture a particular shot. I absolutely loved working with Kris and highly recommend his photography to everyone looking to capture something beautiful!

  • I’ve worked with Unorthodox Wave across multiple areas: my massage business, content creation, and even personal lifestyle and family photos and every single time, I walk away amazed. Kris knows how to bring comfort and creativity to the shoot, and that energy shows in the final product.There’s no one-size-fits-all to his approach and each session feels uniquely crafted for me. If you need someone who can bring your vision to life and capture life, I can’t recommend Kris enough.

  • We had a wonderful experience with Kris! He produced an incredible album of photos which we will keep and print for our home of our engagement. He drove 3 hours to the beach, when we got there it was pouring with rain. He kindly rescheduled our session at no extra cost due to rain, which we really appreciated. The second set of photos were absolutely stunning!! Throughout the shoot, he was kind, patient, and had a gentle presence that made us feel completely at ease. Highly recommend working with him!

  • I can’t say enough good things about working with Kris! From start to finish, the experience was smooth, professional, and genuinely enjoyable. The photos turned out absolutely perfect — every shot captured the moment beautifully, with such attention to detail and emotion. Not only is the work amazing, but he was also incredibly flexible and easy to work with. He adjusted to our schedule without any hassle and made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the session. It’s clear that he’s not only talented behind the lens but also truly cares about delivering the best possible experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-quality photography and a photographer who goes above and beyond!
