Chris Van Atta, a wedding photographer who is new to Asheville, is trying to get his name out and line up some work. Here’s more, from his website, www.ashevillencweddingphotography.com:

I am Chris Van Atta Photography, Asheville’s newest wedding photographer. Although not new to wedding photography i have cut my teeth and style as a professional-surf photographer. Attending Crealde school of arts in Orlando florida and then soon to follow a student of commercial photography program. Those were my early days. I then later moved to Wilmington NC and became senior photographer for a national surf and skate magazine that graced to magazins racks at many local bookstores. I have 9 covers of various magazines from surf to wedding. …

I am great and seeking locations with natural lighting and great backdrops that would normally go undiscovered at a wedding venue that has been worked time and time again. It a sixth sense you can say. I am alive and know that i was destined to share my look, charm, and atmosphere with select clients. If you are seeking a wedding photographer with carefree approach and who will add to your wedding day event, then Chris Van Atta would be a great choice.

@Samuel – Are you jealous? Seems you must be a local photographer in Asheville that is pissed off..? lol..

People don't choose photographers based on a search engine result.. they choose them because their good at what they do.. and from what I can see, he's very good.

Seems you need to stop spending so much time on the internet and more time trying to get better at photography..

just a thought..

Chris Van Atta is not based in Asheville, NC. He is based in Wilmington. He also uses unethical SEO practices to be on the top of search engines for certain keywords based around the words asheville, wedding, & photographers. Probably the reason he wants to advertise on your blog is because it helps his SEO even more. With a little research you can find numerous 'gateway' pages that are merely pointing to his websites but don't serve any other purpose.

Support Local (and ethical) businesses that actually reside here and pay the City of Asheville money for privilege licenses! Please advise.
