new river gorge photographer

HI! I am a full-time documentary photographer living in the New River Gorge in Fayetteville, WV. I'm available for regional, US and international work. I have been photographing weddings since 2009 and have documented over 300 weddings. My wedding work has been published in The Knot, WV Weddings and Bliss Bridal. Also, I routinely work for the Associated Press and my photojournalism work has been published in numerous dailies and magazines including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, The London Telegraph, The Chronicle of Higher Education, Oxford American, Sports Illustrated, ESPN Magazine, Freehub, Dirt Rag, Blue Ridge Outdoors, Highland Outdoors and WV Living.

 

I take pride in telling unique stories in the lives of my clients while maintaining an unobtrusive style which blends documentary with fine art visuals. I am a legally licensed business and insured. I'm an inclusive wedding photographer and proudly serve the LGBTQ community.

 

I love mountain biking, skiing and traveling. I'm also a father to two badass girls and a sucker for a strong ale or coffee.

 

Cheers.

 

"Chris Jackson is a wedding photography rockstar!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience. Chris photographed our wedding at the Corduroy Inn at Snowshoe, and even though we had never met in person before the big day (we didn’t do engagement photos), he showed up and immediately felt like a trusted friend. He was calm, professional, and incredibly easy to work with — exactly the kind of person you want by your side on a whirlwind day like a wedding. He took all our ideas and locations and shot the most beautiful and rad pictures that were so US!"- Olivia Lent, Snowshoe, WV, 2025
