Matt Priestman Photography

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Matt take both our Engagement and Wedding Photographs and every photo he has returned to us have been positively breathtaking. During our engagement session which was included in our package, Matt managed to capture some of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen of my husband and I. He took us to a wonderful outdoor location with beautiful views and he was fun and energetic the whole shoot. My husband and I felt comfortable and at ease the entire session. We have now received our edited copies of the photos from our wedding day and in a very timely manner may I add! Matt has an eye for making a usually very staged day completely candid which shows in all of the photos he returned. The photos are vibrant and unique in a way I have not seen from many photographers. I was so busy the day of my wedding I often had no idea where Matt was, but looking at my photos he was able to capture every important moment without me even noticing, making them even more candid, natural and beautiful. I also found that I have a picture or multiple pictures of all of my guests which is so special to me as the bride to look back at and remember my day with all my friends and family. After all the pictures were done Matt created our very own website with all of our digital photos categorized and ready to download. The website is easy to navigate and beautifully laid out. On top of all this amazing work Matt is now working on a customized album of my husband and I's favorite pictures. Matt is an amazing person with a pronounced talent in photography, you will not regret your decision to choose him for any of your future events. I would recommend Matt to anyone looking for vibrant, natural, candid, and breathtaking photos.

We hired Matt to be our wedding photographer about a year before our May 2013 wedding. His package included an engagement session and we were thrilled with the results. He made us very comfortable and talked about our love of the UW Huskies, plans for the wedding, and general interests, hobbies, etc. The day of our wedding he showed up to start pictures of myself and the bridesmaids at about 9:00 AM. He scurried back and forth between my husband's location with the groomsmen and the house with the girls. Not only did he again make us all comfortable, we didn't feel like we had to pose for every photo. I'm sure we'll have some hilarious candid shots. He worked with us to come up with shot lists and a timeline to make all of our pictures runs smoothly once we had our "first look". Matt stayed until we left at 11:00...what a long day! We've seen a few of our first pictures and CANNOT wait to see the rest of them. Thanks Matt for FANTASTIC work!

Matt is amazingly fun and professional! All of my attendees loved jumping in his photobooth setup and playing with all of his props! Matt had the photos available for viewing the very next day so guests could immediately start reliving the night.

Matt Priestman is not only talented, he is such a nice person and truly cares about your wedding day. Him and his wife Holly worked as a great team! He offers a photo booth option which you must take him up on. Such a great addition to the evening, and it gave the guests something fun to do. Matt also did our engagement photos and he sure has a great eye for awesome shots!

As soon as Matt walked into the salon where I was having my makeup and hair done for the big day - I instantly liked him. Due to the nature of my husband and I's wedding we could not meet with Matt before the wedding day. That alone could add a bit of stress to any bride, but this was not the case when working with Matt. He was ALWAYS quick to answer emails, any questions I had, and offered countless times to help me in any way he could as I planned my destination wedding. I was VERY impressed by this. Matt runs his business well and I was never left feeling like I couldn't trust him. Like I mentioned, as soon as I met Matt I liked him and his presence truly makes you feel at ease. During the ceremony, I hardly noticed he was there as he snapped his photos which I really appreciated. During the rest of the time Matt had some neat ideas for fun photos! He was very creative and fun! When we finally saw the photos he took of the whole day, I was absolutely blown away at the quality, creativity and his unique eye to all the different shots he took. He is definitely a photographer you can trust to capture all your special moments for you big day! Please consider Matt Priestman as your photographer, you certainly won't regret it!
