Matt McClosky Photography

nough for everything they've done.

could feel his commitment to our wedding photos. Over the course of planning he was very communicative, responded promptly to all my questions, and constantly put me at bridal ease. On the day of our wedding, Matt & Ruth completely blew us away from the moment we arrived at the venue. They were never pushy or intrusive but became part of the celebration. We received our photos promptly after our wedding and I was left speechless, viewing hundreds of photos over and over again. Every photo captured was more that I could have dreamt them to be. I will recommend Matt & Ruth to anybody getting married in the capital region as my experience with them was incredible and our photos will give us a lifetime of memories. Thank you for being part of our day!

job of making us laugh to get natural smiles. Leading up to the wedding, he was easily available to discuss the timeline of the day and help with any questions. He captured so many great moments of our day that I am so happy to have. We loved that his package included Thank you notes and an album. Matt was also incredibly flexible and was able to stay for a additional hour making it so we got some great shots of everyone dancing! We were so happy to have the photo gallery ready a month after our wedding, being able to relive the day so quickly was amazing. We loved having Matt as our Photographer and will be recommending to all family and friends!

ed the guests and setting beautifully. We just accessed our gallery and couldn't be happier with the end result. Great personalities and very talented.

d, both are spectacular people and so much fun. They were our go-to photographers for our wedding engagement and then again, for our special day. We CANNOT wait to see our final photos; but if they are anything like our engagement photos, we have no doubt we will be blown away by them! Matt and Ruth, thank you both from the bottom of our hearts for being part of our special day!

ng process so seamless, which is truly a godsend amidst wedding planning. Matt and Ruth are an incredible team when it comes to capturing photos that we'll cherish forever. This was our first time getting professional photos together, and they made us feel so comfortable. It was actually quite fun. In the end, the photos were beyond our expectations (and we knew they would be good). We're so excited to work with them again next year for our wedding day!

el comfortable and like ourselves the whole time. The pictures came out beautifully and I can’t wait to have them do our wedding as well!

at we should expect and the type of investment we would make, after that meeting, we knew we needed to have Matt as our photographer. We had an amazing engagement photoshoot (part 1) in August 2019 in Downtown Saratoga in front of all these cool spots all up and down Broadway. We totally loved this experience and pictures and although felt awkward at first, started getting comfortable with the idea of being the main event and taking super cool photos out and about in public. Ethan and I met on our college track team and we had this idea that we really wanted some photos of us running together. Matt took this idea and ran with it (haha) and met us at the local high school track for engagement photos part 2. These photos are also great and make me smile every time I see them! Next, we hosted a very small (25- guest) wedding ceremony at The Appel Inn in July 2020 (our original wedding date) and we soooo relieved that Matt and Ruth were able to be there and capture the memories of Ethan and I getting married for real. These photos are absolutely stunning! We love looking back at these ceremony photos and our posed photos from after the ceremony and see everyone who was there for our special day (part 1 again). Finally after almost 3 full years of having Matt and Ruth hired as our photographers, we got to have them for our full wedding day, starting from getting ready all the way to our sparkler exit! We recently got the photos back and I cannot emphasize enough how perfect they are at showing the entire day as it happened. We sat on our couch with some wine, played the 700+ photo slide show and got to relive our entire wedding day with these photos. Matt and Ruth are such a fun team to work with, they love to mess around, will take any of your ideas and make them work and they like to make sure they do some fun and different poses instead of the basic stuff you typically see. I would be so happy if we could hire them again and again because they are so so worth it!

ement sessions and gave great recommendations for engagement locations based the common interests of me and my fiance'. They photographed our small 'boutique wedding' during the lockdown and our big celebration this year with all of our family and friends. I can't imagine anyone else having shot our wedding. They were super friendly, easy going and I feel like they were the most wholesome and honest part of the entire experience. Matt gave great vendor recommendations too. Ruth and Matt will make you feel like family and deliver photos that stir up some serious emotion. They are without a doubt the husband & wife dream team.

atmosphere fun, comfortable, and relaxed - and the pictures are simply phenomenal. They were also super flexible and were able to accommodate us when we had to change our original plans due to COVID. I can't say enough good things about them and I would HIGHLY recommend them for any event!!

pture the important moments for us and deliver breath taking photos that we have already looked at time and time again. I would highly recommend McClosky Photography to anyone who needs a photographer.

comfortable the entire time they're on site. Making sure they grab every shot you desired and even the ones you may have never thought of. Our ceremony was supposed to be outdoors, but Mother Nature was uncooperative that day and we ended up making a last minute decision to get married on the balcony inside the barn where our reception was going to be held. Matt & Ruth were able to capture beautiful moments the entire night without a hitch. We are beyond thankful for them, and would recommend them to anybody seeking professional and trustworthy photographers!

pher. I first met Matt and Ruth at a wedding expo at the Albany Marriot, my mom told me that I had that day to book a wedding photographer, anyone of my choice. After meeting and speaking with many photographers, I found that Matt and Ruth were the perfect match. Not only because of the gorgeous portfolio they had, but because they were the most personable, relatable, down to earth people. They are nothing but exceptional and I recommend them to anyone in need of a photographer for any occasion. My husband and I definitely see ourselves having Matt and Ruth photograph many more special moments in our lives.

g your best day ever! I am ever so grateful for Matt and Ruth “Perry,” and highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun, dynamic duo who produces some of the most amazing shots of you and your groom.

came out BEAUTIFUL and every wedding guest mentioned how much they enjoyed having Matt and Ruth around. You will not regret booking!

uality of their work is top-notch. They went above and beyond to capture the day!

s in person, provided us with all the information we needed and answered all our emails and our hundreds of questions right away. He was organized and had everything set up and answered so we had absolutely no worries come the day of. On our wedding day Matt and Ruth went above and beyond to get the most breathtaking shots. From climbing dark staircases to laying down on the docks... they did everything to get the perfect pictures and angles! They were so personable and made our time with them comfortable and fun. We were so happy with all our pictures we got back. We would absolutely recommend having them for your special day! Love, Bethany & Brandon Keating

ng! We look amazing and you wouldn't believe we were getting rained on the whole time. He was also great to work with! He kept us laughing and we really enjoyed ourselves. My fiance and I are not big on taking pictures because we end up having stale smiles after a couple seconds. But Matt kept us from that fate with well placed jokes and allowed us to just be ourselves. Our wedding day wouldn't have been what it was without Matt and Ruth! They are really such an amazing team to work with! Calm in the middle of the storm. They really knew how to catch special moments that were not planned. If you want to have an amazing wedding day I would absolutely recommend you choose Matt!

and thoroughly, he was organized, and we felt that we were so prepared going into the wedding that we didn't have any concerns or questions about photos. My husband and I said over and over again throughout the day how happy we were that we made the decision to ask them to photograph our wedding day. Matt and Ruth arrived on time and were so much fun while taking the getting ready photos. They were personable, funny, made everyone feel at ease... just absolutely wonderful. Everyone who had a part in the day has told us how much they enjoyed working with Matt and Ruth because of how fun they are to be around but also how good they are at taking photos. They gave great direction about what they were looking for and all of the shots turned out phenomenal. It is awesome because Matt has more of the technical eye for lighting etc while Ruth has an eye for composition so they balance each other out perfectly and really do a phenomenal job. They were open to any pictures that we wanted to have taken too! Throughout the ceremony, I didn't even notice they were there! Which was great because I was able to just focus on marrying my best friend. But the pictures they got were absolutely incredible!! And they were organized and quick with getting amazing pictures of family after the ceremony so that we could get back for our cocktail hour and reception! They were so fun at the reception and everyone enjoyed working with them! But, being wedding photographers, I suppose one of the most important things is the actual photos. I was blown away by how much I love our photos. He sent us almost 800 photos and I literally love every single one! AND to top it all off, his pricing was the best that I could find! We are sure that everyone will love Matt and Ruth as much as we did!
