The Best Of 2025 | Chris Smith Photography
I can’t believe it’s time to do one of these again – 2025 where have you gone?! At the time I guess I don’t get to fully appreciate just how wonderful the year has been… It’s been hectic at times, but it’s been a blast, and I’m so proud of the work that I’ve delivered for my couples.
And that’s why I guess this job for me in January, once all the Christmas food and drink has settled and the kids are back at school, is one of my favourite things to do – it’s always at the top of my ‘to do’ list this time of year.
I’ve spent the last week or so looking back through the whole of 2025, going through every single wedding and selecting my favourites.
Here’s a few stats for you:
37 incredible weddings photographed across the UK.
24 different venues photographed.
Approximately 221,000 images taken.
21,338 photographs edited and delivered.
Lots of new venues visited along with some old favourites too.
Calories consumed at weddings: ??? I better not try to estimate that, but it’s safe to say venues have done an amazing job of keeping me fed and watered, they really do spoil us suppliers!
So, what does 2026 have in store for me? Well, more of the same really, lots of great weddings booked that I’m already getting excited for, as well as numerous other projects that I’m working on for both my business and with my family.
To each and every one of the couples, venues and other suppliers that I’ve worked with this year, a huge thank you for continuing to make my work an absolute dream.
Anyway, here it is – the all-important picture bit of the blog. Enjoy!
