General photography had been Chip’s focus, until a friend asked him to film his wedding.

A loving husband and father, the only thing Chip loves more than capturing memories for others, is creating memories of his own with his family. A man of faith with a heart for God, he resides in Maryland and enjoys watching movies or sharpening his golf skills on the green when he’s not behind the camera.
