Matt and Liz were and are absolute beautiful people. From the minute they walked into our “getting ready” rooms to moving on to photograph our wedding, we felt at ease and taken care of. Our photos came out incredibly gorgeous, and our families kept commenting days upon days (and still months after) after about how organized and kind they both were. Their photography is unparalleled, and if you don’t like photos of yourself (which I typically do not) you will be so overly thrilled at how natural and lovely and perfect they come out. He truly captured every moment in a time that feels like it’s moving so fast. I have never felt more beautiful in my life when reflecting and seeing all of the pictures. We look at our wedding photos from them often with happy tears and smiles. The icing on the cake was they were given to us in an extremely timely manner with constant and kind communication. I highly recommend Matthew Foster Photography. These are people that when they spend your special day with you, you hope to be friends with them in the future, and you miss them! That’s how special they are. Thank y’all so much. You are truly the best.

I'm really very touched by this review, Margaret. Thank you so much. Your wedding was so very beautiful and it was an honor to be there and play a part. You two are gems.
Matthew and Liz were an absolute dream to work with! From the very beginning, they were professional and very communicative. Matthew captured our engagement photos, bridal portraits, and our wedding day and they were all STUNNING. I mean, there are so many good photos that I truly can't decide which ones to pick. Matthew made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which is no small feat, and his attention to detail was remarkable. Each image truly captured the emotions of the day. We loved going through all of our photos and being able to relive our day.
We couldn’t be happier with our choice to work with Matthew and Liz and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a team of dedicated photographers.
Thank you, Matthew and Liz, for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever!
Matt and Liz are incredible people and photographers. 10/10 recommend!!

Thank you, Meredith!
Any questions?
Someone gave us some good advice before the wedding of our first daughter. They said to make sure you like the personality of your photographer as much as you like his/her photos because they’re right in the middle of things for the whole time. Matt and Liz were a perfect fit with regard to personality and skill. They accommodated all our requests, were fun and respectful, and they have an experienced and creative eye for great photography. The pictures were delivered quickly and easily. So happy we used Matthew Foster Photography for all THREE of our daughters’ weddings!
I can not begin to tell you all how wonderful my experience with Matt was. He did my engagements that turned out so wonderful! He knows all the great locations and has an eye for taking the photos to the next level. Photography on my wedding day was awesome! He and Liz came and took all the best candids and then the family and they caught all the fun, silly, sweet, and intimate moments throughout the whole day. The Ceremony pictures were amazing.
I just simply can't say enough great things. His turn around time was great. When I laid my eyes on the photos I was blown away. I have never felt so beautiful. I still look at them and think that is what a magazine shoot looks like.
Highly recommend!
We had the most incredible experience with Matthew and Liz for our wedding. They somehow were able to make us all look like movie stars while still capturing real moments and genuine emotions. Hiring different venders for a wedding can be daunting, but I can assure you that if you book with this photography team, you will have one piece of your wedding anxiety lifted. They were quick to respond to me throughout the year leading up to our wedding and helped us feel relaxed/comfortable/& excited throughout the day despite never meeting them in person prior (due to our wedding being a destination wedding); they were absolutely worth every penny. The turnaround time for the photos also was so quick (which was great because I am extremely impatient and nit-picky)!
Per Matt’s expertise suggestion (due to the early ceremony time), we had both Matt and Liz for the morning, ceremony, and portrait sessions and then just Matt for the reception and second line. Despite being one less a photographer for the second half of the wedding day we still got amazing photos. The reception images allowed me to see the parts of the party I missed and our guests at the reception kept saying “your photographer seemed to be everywhere at once!”. If you want your photos to not only be beautiful pieces of art work but also spark memories and emotion, look no further. They are a professional, friendly, experienced, and extremely competent team—you should certainly hire them.

Jasmin!! you two were absolute rockstars. Such fun faces and spirits to capture, thanks again so much for having us! And thank you for taking the time to write this really lovely review. We appreciate it so much!
Matt and Liz are amazing wedding photographers. They are super easy to work with, incredibly diligent and efficient on wedding day, and so fun to have at the wedding. They captured our wedding perfectly and delivered a TON of beautiful photos in under 4 weeks. Please use them for wedding photos in New Orleans if you can!!!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Matt and Liz! I am so happy they were available for my wedding and engagement photos! They are both super cool (even my teenager thought so) and produce the most epic wedding photos! Definitely recommend!!

The vibe of your whole family together is so fun to be in the presence of, Elisha. I've loved getting to know each and everyone of them!
Matt and Liz are a terrifically talented and dynamic photography duo. We would hire them again without hesitation, and would also encourage anyone reading this review to STOP your search, and HIRE THEM! From the planning process to the event itself, Matt and Liz were attentive, accommodating, professional and very comfortable to be around. They captured so many special moments and expressions. We are truly thrilled with all aspects of their work: details, getting ready, first look, wedding and reception photos. They even managed to capture great images of our very large families with speed and ease. Thank you Matt and LIz, you were a fabulous addition to our wedding experience!
Response from the Vendor on 03/12/2024
Thank you so so much for this review. I was absolutely thrilled by how successful and fun this night turned out to be. That Fulton St. scene at the end was jus the most beautiful pandemonium!!
I can’t say enough amazing things about Matt and Liz — not only did they capture our day beautifully, they were so wonderful to work with and helped having a camera around all day feel fun instead of nerve wracking. Their artistic vision is unmatched and we’ll treasure these photos forever!!
Response from the Vendor on 03/12/2024
Thank you so much, Janie. The love between the two of you could be felt by us all and was a delight to photograph.
I can’t say enough good things about Matthew Foster Photography! Our wedding photos are amazing, better than we could have even imagined!! Matthew and Liz were a joy to work with. They made us feel relaxed, and we especially loved the candid photos they took! They captured the essence of the day with their photos! Their photography style is so unique and truly magazine quality. Matthew has a keen eye for the right lighting at the right time. He also has expertise with setting sunlight and he uses that natural light to amplify and catch tender moments with stunning imagery. Matthew and Liz move about without being noticed and position themselves for action shots that reflect the evening's fun and festivities. They experiment with light in fun and creative ways -- with alternating lens effects that create an other worldly feel. We highly recommend Matthew Foster Photography for your wedding and reception.
Matthew and Liz were incredible in every way. 10/10 professionalism, kindness, and talent. They really helped me to feel at ease and beautiful on my wedding day! The pictures are amazing as well. They captured our special day perfectly. I'm so thrilled that my husband and I will have these pictures to look back on for the rest of our lives and show our grandkids.
One year of marriage today! Our confidence was solid that we chose the right team to capture our moment. What we did not expect was your ability to literally provide a portal through which we could experience it time and again. As we sit by the beautiful wall of wedding photos and flip through an album we almost ditched to save a few bucks (that would have been a shame!), it is an understatement to say that you, Matt and Liz, provided us one of the most valued experiences. Your talent and technique naturally captured all we could have asked for and more. You magically wove together the story of our day and made our memories vivid forever. Pretty sure you’ll be “at our table” every anniversary forever… hope that’s ok.
Matt and Liz were absolutely incredible on our wedding day. They made us feel so comfortable and special and tended to. Little tips they had to help us relax for the photos were fun and helpful. They have a really great energy, and we’re absolutely in love with our photos. 10/10 highly recommend
Absolutely in awe of the photos Matt took! We came to Matt because we had an awful experience with our wedding photographer and no good photos from the actual wedding day. For our 1 year anniversary we traveled back to NOLA to re-take our wedding photos and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! Matt is so easy going and makes you feel so comfortable. He directs your poses in the best way and gives you the confidence of a super model! He recreated an experience we thought we had lost out on and my husband and I couldn't be more grateful! I would hire Matt again for anything but especially a wedding! 10 Stars for sure!!!
Duff/Dolan Wedding: Matt and Liz did absolutely phenomenally on our destination wedding in New Orleans which ended up falling on Sugar Bowl weekend. They were so attentive and fit in so naturally with our group. It was a perfect fit for our occasion. We genuinely had so much fun with them as people and individuals, not just photographers. They felt like part of the gang. Would love to work with them again if I had the opportunity. Can’t recommend them enough!
Matt and Liz were fantastic. You will definitely get your money's worth!! Matt and Liz shot our wedding a few weeks ago and not only were they super fun the whole day, but we got our pictures back only 3 weeks later. They shot and edited over 1300 pictures. The portraits look like art work and like they belong in a bridal magazine. The reception photos are fun and hilarious and truly capture the essence of the day. Would recommend over and over!
Matt and Liz are absolutely amazing! We had a fairly large group and they were able to keep us in line and on track with our timeline, was incredibly professional throughout the entire process and captured so many moments we will treasure forever. Thank you guys!
I cannot express how wonderful, amazing, and incredible it was working with Matthew and Liz! They captured all the beautiful and important moments for me and my husband! Liz was amazing with organizing the groomsmen and sewing the button back on my groom’s tux 🙈! And Matthew kept the party going and stress levels down for me with the bridesmaids and flower girls! I loved everything about them and how easy going they were. I loved the creativeness in pictures and poses that Matthew came up with. The photos came out beyond all our expectations. I would recommend them to anyone. Also we got all of our photos back within 2 weeks which was so much fun to come home too from our honeymoon.
I cannot say enough great things about Matthew!! We met Matthew almost 2 years ago. With COVID our wedding was canceled twice but this past April it finally happened. Throughout all that time Matthew stayed in touch and was committed to our date. He was so easy going and flexible which made my life a little less stressful. We had a small destination wedding in NOLA and wanted our pictures to be more spontaneous and non-traditional. Matthew did an amazing job of capturing the essence of our wedding, the special bond we had to each of our guest and all without us even remembering he was in the room LOL We just got our pictures a few days ago, reviewing them brought my husband and I too tears at how amazing they were. Thank you Matthew for sticking with us all this time and for making our magical evening one we will be able to look back on and remember for forever!!
Matt and Liz did a FANTASTIC job photographing our wedding. I would hire them again without hesitation-- here's why you should, too:
- They were just lovely, warm people and brought the kind of energy you want on your wedding day. Liz even helped the groom get his boutonnière on straight.
- They were able to wrangle my family and get the shots we needed quickly and efficiently while maintaining a relaxed, upbeat environment. (And that was challenging! Several family members were REAL late for group portraits and we had to get them done quickly because guests were arriving!)
- I wanted beautiful formal portraits, but I also wanted tons of candids of our guests-- I wanted to see the wedding through their eyes and really remember what it felt like to be there. Matt and Liz absolutely share that vision. They gave me about 1500 images, hundreds of which are of our guests dancing and visiting and laughing and... seriously. It took my husband and me hours to get through them all the first time because we had such a good time reliving everything.
- Matt and Liz are talented artists. They know how to work with the light and gave us a wide array of beautiful, nuanced, interesting portraits. We had the classics, but we also had some really neat, magazine editorial-style shots as well. As I was making our wedding album I really appreciated having so many different options to choose from.
In short, Matt and Liz were everything I had hoped they would be-- they are professional, wonderful people to work with on such an important day. They were easy to communicate with, got our photos back to us super fast, and turned out images I am absolutely thrilled to share with others. The experience would not have been the same without them!
We hired Matt for our engagement photos and Matt and Liz for our wedding and I am SO happy we did! They are both incredibly talented, so much fun and made such an amazing day so stress-free and joyful. We will cherish these photos forever and will definitely be hiring them for anniversary shoots in the future!
We could not have asked for a better photographer to capture our engagement photos and our wedding!! Matt was so easy to work with and made sure to capture some truly special moments on our day! He has the best, laid back, and helpful personality which made planning and the day run seamlessly- even through some crazy weather! We are so thankful for his and his team’s hard work and for making every experience a happy one!!
What can I say about Matt and Liz? If you're looking for a wedding photographer team with experience, a fun and chill vibe, who can roll with everything with ease and a smile, look no further. We postponed our wedding celebration and made changes twice due to COVID and Matt was so gracious and easy to work with. When the day finally came, Matt and Liz captured hours worth of shots. We didn't have a videographer, so a wide range of photos were very important to us. Matt and Liz caught amazing detail shots, posed family portraits and two hours worth of fun with our friends at Jam Nola (where the entire point is taking photos) all before the reception and second line. We have thousands of memories thanks to this team. And when my mother-in-law needed some extra retouching done, they turned it around that same day. All in all, Matt and Liz are Incredibly easy to work with, super willing to go above and beyond, and just fun people to have around on your wedding day!
For starters, I received the most glowing review I have ever heard from a friend describing Matthew before we booked, and boy was it spot on. His work is absolutely impeccable. Our engagement and wedding photos are truly some of the most beautiful photos I have seen. They exceeded my wildest (and high) expectations. I cannot tell you how many compliments we have received from friends and family stating the same. On top of their phenomenal work, Matt and Liz are kind, laid-back, communicative, punctual- and insanely talented! I truly cannot recommend them enough! 100/10!
Planning: Go check out their portfolio on their website and Instagram - after I did, I became their biggest fan! It was so incredible to work with someone who makes such beautiful art and who truly loves doing it. It was their work that initially convinced me to reach out to them, but it was Matt’s personality that made us say “yes” without hesitation. This was one of a few decisions about our wedding vendors I made without consulting my fiancé - I just told him that I found our photographer and he’s perfect. His personality is calming, enthusiastic, professional, personable, and passionate that is contagious! He was very responsive throughout the planning process. ///////// Wedding day experience: Matt arrived to the suite where my bridal party was getting ready and he instantly fit right in. He went right to work as if he was excited to start shooting! He was so patient with me and my bridal party and fit right in with our antics (we taught him a new swear word or two - oops!). It was amazing to watch him work his artistry in real time. He knew the exact shot he wanted and how to communicate efficiently to our bridal party and family. To our wedding party, Matt quickly and affectionately became “the one with the eyes” (when you meet him, you’ll know what we mean). He and Liz have such an amazing rapport; their thoughts seem to flow seamlessly between each others brains, which made for an efficient photographing experience. While it was clear they had a plan for pre-ceremony portraits, last-minute we had to change plans (due to a lost room key), so we went rogue and took it to the streets! It seemed like they were in their element regardless of the situation (planned or spontaneous), and we were so lucky to benefit from their flexibility. ///////// I’m writing this review based on my experience working with Matt 3 days ago, even before seeing our wedding day photos, but as stated in the first sentences, I have no doubt that they will be incredible. Check out their work, talk to Matt, and rest assured you’ll have stunning photos to recap the best day of your lives!

Thank you so much Lylah!! I'm so touched by that and I'm so happy I was able to contribute to such a beautiful, successful, fun night. (And I'm of course grateful for my newly improved vocabulary)
Hands down the BEST photographer for weddings! Matt and Liz are so easy to work with - they’re the friendliest and most accommodating professionals. I’ve had the pleasure of having them photograph both my son and my daughter’s weddings. They traveled to our little town to capture priceless pics of our daughter’s bridal sand wedding. Their pictures are works of art! They capture moments you wouldn’t even think of; and, they are always smiling! They truly are supportive, positive and love what they do. I highly recommend them to everyone needing a photographer - I promise they are worth it!
Response from the Vendor on 12/09/2021
Thank you Kay! There's no higher compliment than to get invited back to shoot a second wedding for a family. I'm so happy I got to do it.
I was excited to work with Matthew Foster Photography for my wedding after seeing how beautiful the pictures from my cousins' weddings were. All of my expectations were met and so much more! Matthew Foster is professional, fun, communicative, and captures the most memorable moments of the day in the most gorgeous pictures. More than that, I have full access to a gallery of all the edited photos in such a short waiting time of a month. It was an absolute JOY working with Matthew Foster Photography and HIGHLY recommend anyone to get on their schedule ASAP before they get booked up! Thanks again Matthew and Liz!
Matthew Foster and Liz King photographed our September 2021 wedding at The Chicory in New Orleans and we would definitely recommend them!
After looking through Matt's website and seeing some great examples of his previous work we decided to reach out and set up a phone call to discuss our wedding. It was very easy to speak with Matt and he immediately understood what we were looking for. We wanted a photographer who had experience working at our venue and who had a cool photojournalism style. We wanted our pictures to look natural and candid, but still professional and creative. Matt and Liz gave us exactly what we were looking for.
Due to COVID we had to push back our wedding almost a year. Matt was very easy to work with and helped us to reschedule for our new date. All communication with Matt was very easy. He reached out to us well in advance of our wedding day and answered all of our questions completely.
On the day of our wedding we could not have had a better experience working with Matt and Liz! They both showed up on time and were extremely professional throughout the entire day. At the same time they helped us to stay relaxed and made sure that we were having fun. We're not used to having pictures taken of us or being the center of attention, but Matt and Liz made us feel so comfortable -- almost like we were hanging out with friends. Liz was even able to help the guys make sure their boutonnieres were pinned correctly which was a huge bonus -- I really don't know if the guys would have been able to do it without her! Also, they were so nice working with our family and friends to capture all of the portraits that we wanted. During the ceremony and reception they were able to capture so many great moments while not being too intrusive or getting in the way of anything.
Matt and Liz delivered the pictures to us less than 3 weeks after the wedding. We were absolutely delighted with the pictures we received. Over 1,200 pictures which captured so many of our favorite moments throughout the day and night. We could not be happier with the whole experience of working with Matt and Liz.
If you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further.
Matt and Liz are the absolute best. I can’t say enough good things. Not only are their photographs gorgeous and unique, and they catch every little detail, but they are such a good pair to have as part of your wedding day. Matt was a great person to have around the bride and bridesmaids as we were getting ready; he is so fun and part of the moment, but other times you don’t even know he is there capturing the details. The groom and groomsmen had nothing but good things to say about their time with Liz before the ceremony. Their photographs capture all of the love and all of the fun from every moment of your big day. And they were so easy to work with with all of the loving parts of our Covid wedding. Matt and Liz were definitely a highlight!
I cannot speak highly enough about Matt and Liz! Not only are they both incredibly talented photographers, but they were also a pleasure to be around on our wedding day! They managed to remove the stress of taking photos and made it an enjoyable experience. You can tell that they really enjoy what they do, and it showed in their photos! They were able to beautifully capture all of our requested shots and shots we would have never imagined - with time to spare before the ceremony! We really appreciated the creative shots that were different from your standard off-the-shelf wedding photos. We have received so many compliments on the photos from family and friends. We will cherish these captured moments forever. Having Matt and Liz photograph our wedding was one of the best decisions we could have made!
I cannot say enough great things about Matthew and Liz. COVID threw everyone for a wild ride this past year, and Matthew and Liz were right there supporting us right through it. Through date changes, location changes, time changes Matthew and Liz MADE IT HAPPEN. The pictures captured our day so perfectly. They are so fun to work with and produce some of the best wedding pictures that I have ever seen. I am biased, but multiple of my guests and friends have resounded how amazing their work is. They are the real deal!! BOOK THEM!!! You won't regret it!
I hired Matt and Liz to photograph my wedding in February 2021, and they were absolutely wonderful! They not only shot edited and returned to me over 1400 amazing pictures (including a list of every shot I had requested) but they also took so many great candid photos that really captured moments I never would have seen otherwise. They were also a huge support and voices of reason throughout the day. They helped make sure all of us stuck to the schedule, Matt was wonderful in helping me keep calm and making me laugh through some of the stressful moments of the wedding morning. Liz was amazing with my husband, the groomsmen, fathers and especially my 4 year old nephew! When the guys didn't know how to pin their boutineers on Liz stepped up immediately to help them and make sure everything was perfect. They were incredibly professional and they returned the edited digital copies of the pictures in just around two weeks! I highly recommend anyone getting married in the greater New Orleans area hire them for your wedding!

Thank you Kelsey! I'm so so happy you had such a wonderful day and that we were able to contribute to that warms my heart :)
Not only did Matt and Liz give us the most beautiful, perfect wedding day photos that truly captured us and our relationship - they were the easiest, nicest, most fun people to work with! We got so many compliments about them, and all of our friends and family are obsessed with our photos!
They were easy to communicate with and responded very quickly! We got our photos faster than we could have imagined as well. I tried to pick out only my absolute favorites and ended up selecting 350 photos!!
I ended up leaving my bouquet with my maw maw's rosary outside of the church when we were taking photos. Matt went back after our reception and got them and delivered them a bridesmaid!! We honestly cannot recommend them enough and wish we could give them 6 stars :) Best photographers and truly awesome people!
We were extremely fortunate enough to book Matt Foster and his assistant, Liz, for my daughter's December wedding in NOLA. WE ARE OVER OVER THE MOON HAPPY with not only the results of their long day, but they are SO fun to work with! We were so at ease with them, everything just seemed seamless and happy - no stress! I HIGHLY recommend them - you will be so glad you did!
Response from the Vendor on 01/06/2021
Thank you Bonnie! That wedding was SUCH a success and so much fun to be a part of!!
Where to even start... there are about 1500 reasons to hire Matt and Liz in our wedding gallery but here are a few more! Matt is the kind of guy you’d invite to your wedding just because he’s super cool. Our guests and vendors loved working with he and Liz just as much as we did! Of course they managed to capture every possible shot and memory through the day, they even captured the ones we missed. Even though they were seemingly with Heather and I all day, they managed to get some amazing shots of our friends and family that are absolutely frame worthy. Of course they were easy to work and communicate with, and super fast to get us some sneak peaks as always. But what sets them apart is their obvious love for what they do and their ability to just blend into the crowd and capture the best candid shots. They took the time to find the perfect places for our family portraits and first look and made sure we got all of those wedding must have shots that the brides are too crazy to think of! Choosing Matt and Liz to capture your wedding will take one less stressful item off of your to do list, and isn’t that what every brides needs on their wedding day?! Thanks again Matt and Liz, we are forever grateful for you both!
Response from the Vendor on 01/12/2021
Awww, I think you guys are super cool too. :) <3
Working with Matt and Liz was a dream! They were so kind from the start, easy to talk to and just SO PLEASANT to work with! The pictures are absolutely beautiful and they've gone above and beyond to help me make my album just perfect. Nick and I are so thankful for the experience we had with Matt and Liz and the quality of photography they provided. We can't recommend them enough!!!!
Response from the Vendor on 12/05/2020
Thank you, Charlotte! I can't wait to see how it finally all comes together in the album!
Matt (and Liz!) was fantastic to work with from start to finish and during the planning and then change in planning due to COVID (and then rainy weather on the actual wedding day!) he was very understanding and rolled with all the changes as well as had great ideas for various shots. We really appreciated his calm and laidback manner as well as ideas because neither me nor my husband are great picture people. The shots he and Liz captured are absolutely stunning and a great mix of candid and posed. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a photographer in New Orleans!
Response from the Vendor on 12/05/2020
It all came together perfectly in the end. I'm so happy for you both!
We initially chose Matt and Liz as our photographers because I loved their wedding portfolio. It was like I could FEEL the excitement and the fun that the couple and the wedding guests were having just by looking at the pictures. Their ability to capture those candid, special moments, through the crowd of wedding guests, of just the couple was exactly what I wanted.
On the day of our wedding, Matt and Liz arrived and honestly brought the calmest energy. Neither my husband nor I are huge picture people, we didn’t do engagement pictures or bridal portraits or anything like that because it just isn’t us. But, Matt and Liz made everything so natural and easy, it didn’t feel awkward or staged, and it allowed my husband and I to be ourselves and enjoy the moment. The pictures we have from our wedding are beyond-words beautiful (I never thought I was photogenic until I saw these pictures), but you can see and FEEL the happiness and love! Every time I look at them I smile because it brings me back to the best day of my life and I am so thankful Matt and Liz were able to capture it exactly how I remember it!
Matt and Liz are beyond amazing. We loved working with them from the start to the very end. They are the perfect duo together. I would recommend them 100 times! Very professional, laid back, creative, and helpful. We had a great time working with them and we as well as everyone else loves our pictures and albums! They are amazing and do amazing things together. Very much recommended! Thanks again Matt and Liz for everything!!
Matt is the greatest!!!! Not only is he an awesome photographer, he (and Liz!!) are just awesome to work with. An absolute pleasure! They were able to capture moments with a unique and beautiful look that my wife and I’ll cherish forever. I cannot stress enough how pleased we are with the photos and service his team provided us. 5 stars really is not enough to rate them. 10/10!!!! I would highly recommend Matt for any of your photographer needs in the NOLA area. Awesome photographer and amazing person. Thanks again Matt and Liz! My time spent working with you was an absolute pleasure!!!

Thank you, Thomas! An amazing day to be a part of!
This post is long overdue. Matt & Liz photographed our New Orleans wedding in November and I could not have been happier with how everything turned out. They were friendly, punctual, and professional-true masters of their craft. They captured every single detail of the day-big or small. If you are looking for a dream team to capture your perfect day, look no further. Thank you both so much!
Response from the Vendor on 06/05/2020
Hi Katherine! Timing is perfect actually. It's awfully quiet here in quarantinesville. What a nice message for me to get and brighten my day :)
Matthew and his Team were the most amazing wedding photographers. They were on time, fun and super creative. We are so pleased and thank you for making our daughter Caroline the most happy bride ever. We loved all of the photos and know that Caroline and Trevor will be forever grateful to you for capturing so many special moments.
Please don't waste as much time as I did researching a dozen photographers for your New Orleans wedding. Your search should begin and end with Matt and Liz. From the very first email exchanged, through the delivery of the beautiful images after the wedding, this duo showed their professionalism, kindness and incredible talent.
The photographs are simply extraordinary!
Matt and Liz developed a great rapport with the wedding party and captured the best of their subjects. We are so pleased to have chosen them and I highly recommend you hire them both. Thank you , Matt and Liz, for capturing these lifetime memories!

Thank you Adelaida! This has been such a fun journey to be a part of. I'm so happy for you all that was such a success. <3
Matt and Liz were the absolute best! I first met up with Matt when he kindly agreed to meet with me so that I could get a better idea of his pricing, personality, etc. He was super friendly, kind and personable. My fiancé and I decided to have him do our engagement photos. It was the most fun experience! We had the best time. It was like 3 friends hanging out having fun and we felt like we had known Matt all our lives. Our photos turned out beautiful and it was safe to say we were super excited to see how our future wedding photos would turn out. Matt deserves an award for dealing with me constantly emailing and calling him to state my concerns/get updates/ask questions. He was always super quick to respond to my emails and made time to schedule phone meetings to make sure all my questions/concerns were addressed. The day of the wedding we had both Matt and Liz. Matt dedicated his time to the bride (me) and bridal party/bride family. While Liz spent time with the groom, groomsmen and ushers and their location. Matt worked so well with the videographers and yet again we all had a great time. Matt was super accommodating and helped to resolve some conflict with unwanted visitors (he didn’t even charge extra! Lol!). Both Matt and Liz worked so well together once they both arrived at the church and reception venues together. These guys for sure were the main coordinators when it came to time management (in addition to our great day of planner). Again, both Matt and Liz were super easy and fun to work with. Even the guests had a great time with them. We got so many compliments from our guests of how great they were! Our photos turned out STUNNING. Every photo was flawless in its own way. They all look like they could be in a bridal magazine. All the photos somehow captured the true emotions/moments of that day without being too posed (which I knew when speaking to Matt prior this was his goal when shooting). I would highly recommend hiring these guys. Pricing was affordable for what you get (trust me I looked in to photographers who had the same or higher pricing and not even close to the quality of these photos). My dad (father of the bride) who is super cheap was so complimentary of Matt and mentioned numerous times (even months after the wedding) when talking to other people how amazing our photographers were and proceeds to show them all 1,200+ photos! Following the wedding we received a super cute package containing our little book with our usb and a sweet thank you note from Matt and Liz. If you are looking for photographers who are easy to work with, affordable and who to capture beautiful moments these are the guys for you!

Oh my goodness, Emily! Thank you so so much for taking the time to write this. <3
You were an absolute pleasure to work with.
I cannot say enough good things about Matt!! He made us so comfortable and took great photos even with the huge crowds in the French Quarter. The photos were amazing and I can't stop looking at them. We have great candid shots that perfectly capture the mood of the day. I have fully cried while looking at them. Also you wont even know he's there! He got great photos of the ceremony without being in the way. Our guests didn't even realize he was there at many points during the night.
Super talented, great guy!

Thank you Denika! Sooo looking forward to our post-wedding bridal session. Its gonna be amazing.
We hired Matthew Foster Photography based on his fantastic portfolio for our destination wedding in New Orleans. Our communication leading up to the wedding was punctual, friendly, and professional. He answered all of my questions no matter how silly, and he took the time to ask questions about our wedding to get a good feel for us as a couple to better capture the day. The day of the wedding he was right on time and got down to business! I was totally running late and he kept his cool, which kept my cool, and he was able to get us to our first look and back with time to spare before the ceremony. When I got our photos back (quickly, I might add!) I was amazed and so so happy! He totally captured "us" and got some really beautiful portraits and photos of our closest friends and family as well, we definitely made the right choice hiring Matthew Foster Photography for our wedding and I totally recommend you do the same.

There are no silly questions. :)
I could (and will) talk wedding stuff late into the night. LOVE what we got during your last dance. What a cool moment.
I cannot say enough about Matt and Liz! When I began looking for a wedding photographer, I was immediately drawn to the beautiful and unique style of their photography. I had seen nothing like it! When the big day came, I was stressed as one can imagine. Matt was so calm and put all of my nerves at ease, making me feel comfortable in front of the camera. And, Liz worked magic getting my dad to smile and relax, which is no easy task! When the time came to view my wedding images, I was blown away! The photos are stunning! And, I could see the professionalism in that Liz and Matt made sure to have photos of all of our guests. Our posed photos are amazing, and the candid images are some of my favorites. I would definitely recommend Matt and Liz to anyone looking for a photographer with a unique yet classic style!
We had such an amazing experience with Matt and Liz! It was a magical day, and to have two people mesh into our celebration so well, it seemed like they were just part of our family. They caught so many priceless moments throughout the night, and captured images that we can cherish forever. Photography is an art form, and they have undoubtedly mastered their craft. Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts for such an incredible time! Keep up the great work!

Thank you Kelly! Was just looking over your pics the other day and you guys both have smiles that should be studied by philosophers and scholars.
We couldn't have been more impressed with Matt & Liz. They were an amazing pair to work with & their photos are incredible. They are so talented that they seem to get the "right shot" on the first try. For our getting ready & first look shots, they captured so many different poses, group combinations, and candids effortlessly. I never felt like I was waiting around to get my photo taken. They also got shots of everyone on the dance floor, which was amazing to look at after the fact. We are so happy we went with Matt & Liz & would highly recommend them!

Aww! Thank you Alexa!!!!
Matthew did my pictures for my wedding in NOLA in October 2019. Matt and his team were amazing. My only regret was not having him take my engagement photos (which was only because I live in Houston). I can’t wait to see my wedding photos! Matt and his team were such a delight to work with. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun and talented photographer.
Response from the Vendor on 10/15/2019
Thanks Tam! I just made a first pass through them all this morning and cant wait for you to see them :)
Matthew and Liz were an absolute pleasure to work with. They caught everything yet were never in the way by any means. Their personalities and professionalism is EXACTLY what you want/need on your special day.
Look no further, this is your photographer!
Absolutely loved working with Matt and Liz! I first found out about them when I was in one of my best friend's weddings. Matt was great with the bridesmaids, and I loved the creative shots he came up with. When the full gallery was posted, their work was stunning, so when it came time to choose a photographer for my own wedding a couple years later, my decision was already made. Matt and Liz captured so many special moments - a great mix of traditional and artistic shots and plenty of fun party pics of our guests. Matt was even able to get my 2.5-year-old nephew to smile and look at the camera for a family portrait. Matt and Liz are kind, friendly, professional, laid back, and of course, very talented. Highly recommend!

It was so wonderful spending another evening with you all again. Was excited to be asked back!
Matthew did my pictures for my wedding in NOLA in May 2019. Matt and his team were amazing. My only regret was not having him take my engagement photos (which was only because I live in Houston). My wedding photos are amazing. Matt and his team were such a delight to work with. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun and talented photographer.

Thank you Heather! It was really a wonderful night.
Matt and Liz were absolutely amazing to work with. I planned our wedding from another state and Matt was great about vendor recommendations, suggestions for locations of different shots, etc. Our photos were absolutely amazing and we can't wait to use them for our Christmas card this year and give them to our family for gifts since they are all so great! I would definitely recommend Matt for their great service but also how easygoing and positive they were all day, especially with shots outside, in the middle of the day, in June, in NOLA :) !

Heat? What heat?
Thank you Lea! We're so happy for you both
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Matt and Liz are AMAZING!!! I cannot tell you how many times we heard and we are still hearing how awesome our photographers were. As the bride, I can say that Matt took the time to calm me when we saw dark clouds approaching, made me giggle to bring out my natural smile, and made me completely comfortable with him throughout all of our photo shoots. And Liz...what a sweetheart and a perfect teammate. The two together were magic. Even before seeing the pictures we knew we wouldn't be disappointed...and were definitely weren't. They somehow captured so many special moments that brought back up the emotions we felt that day. I told Matt just a couple of things that I wanted him to know that were special to me and he found a way to capture them in the most beautiful ways. Matt and Liz, thank you both so much for your work. We can't express enough how happy we are that we decided on you.
Our photos are stunning and reveal the love and emotion of the day, with exceptional beauty and artistry, thanks to Matt's talent and dedication. He made our experience relaxing and fun, with extraordinary results. He took some very special photos outside in the rain during our first look-you definitely want Matt so you don't miss those amazing moments! We will treasure our exquisite photos and are ever grateful to Matt and Liz for our lasting memories.
Matt & Liz are the BEST! They captured our day so perfectly. The photos turned out amazing. We’ve looked at them a hundred times over and are still in awe. They were so professional and easy to work with! I cannot recommend them enough.
Finding a wedding photographer can be daunting, but choosing Matt and Liz was by far the best decision I made in the planning process! They are extremely professional but also fun and quirky! We had engagement pictures with Matt as well that turned out just as phenomenal as our wedding pictures! Not only does Matt take outstanding pictures, but he also helped me with my wedding day timeline and his artistic eye finds the best locations for the perfect photo op of you in your wedding gown! Liz also does a great job wrangling the groomsmen and making sure they are put together, coming fully equipped with safety pins and all! I can not say enough good things about this duo! You will not be disappointed when you choose them!
Matt & Liz were a joy to work with! I'm so happy we chose them to capture our day. They are extremely talented with such a creative eye. They got all of the special moments and edited them beautifully. Matt also did our engagement photos and my bridals which came out stunning. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
Matt and Liz were one of the most amazing parts of our wedding day. A wedding can be stressful enough without trying to wrangle a bunch of people for photos. Matt and Liz were SO calm and patient, which in turn made us feel so relaxed! We had some extra time before the ceremony, so Matt, Liz, my husband, and I had some extra time to get creative with photos. If I was to redo my wedding day, I would choose Matt and Liz EVERY time.
I don’t even know how to explain how floored I was when I received my wedding photos! I didn’t even know wedding photos could be that amazing outside a magazine!!! All of our friends and family were just as impressed. We got call after call and text after text saying OMG your wedding photos were phenomenal!!! The truth is that word... Phenomenal... is not even good enough!!! Matt and Liz are so friendly and creative! It was semi raining the day of our wedding and Matt and Liz didn’t even break a sweat. They took action and created shots that I would have never thought of. If you want the best experience, the kindest people, a team of talent, and wedding photos that will blow you away then this is your team! Thank you a million times over Matt and Liz!
We could not be happier with our experience with Matthew Foster!! Matt and Liz were amazing at wrangling all my family and wedding party to get amazing pictures that we will treasure forever. He does such a great job at capturing the big party as well as the special smaller moments. They both made me feel so comfortable and stress free. I highly recommend Matthew Foster Photography!!!
Matt & Liz were absolutely AMAZING! They helped to make our special day that much more stress free. Liz worked with the groom and his party while Matt worked with me and the bridesmaids! We both had wonderful experiences! Matt & Liz are not only fabulous photographers, they are truly great people who made taking photos easy and fun! I would hire them again in a heartbeat!
We couldn't be happier. Matt and Liz are an incredible team and we are SO HAPPY to have had them at our wedding. Several people we know have chosen Matthew Foster Photography for their weddings and special occasions in the past with good reason!! Talented, experienced, and knowledgeable. Beyond capturing beautiful moments and quickly producing a high quality and wonderful gallery for us - they are extremely professional, punctual, flexible, reliable, and so fun to work with. Could not have hoped for better.
I was beyond impressed with Matt and Liz! We had a large and chaotic wedding with lots of family with lots of requests for photos and this team truly delivered! The photos were great AND I am a curvy bride and I liked every photo! Matt did a great job with the angles and ladies we all know this is super important! I was also very happy with how he incorporated my dog into the photos which meant so much to me! I would recommend these guys any day and I hope to book them again for anniversary photos (minus all the fam I promise Matt and Liz :) ) Stop your search now because you found your wedding or event photographer!!!!!
Can't say enough great things about Matthew Foster Photography. Not only are they extremely talented at what they do, they are also both so nice, easy-going, and a joy to have around on your wedding day. As the bride, I spent more time with Matthew and he was such a breath of fresh air to have around amidst all the chaos of the wedding day. Both he and Liz were able to handle our large wedding party with ease and got everything done in a timely manner. Our wedding pictures came out better than I could have ever imagined because of these two. They are able to simultaneously capture beautiful, artistic photos as well as fun and candid pictures to completely convey all aspects of the wedding day. Book them now!!!!!
I got married 7 years ago, and I loved our photographs from the second I saw them, but several weddings of friends and family later, I realize just how special Matt's work is. Many photographers hang out in just a few areas and have a limited scope to shoot from, he really gets amongst it and captures the night just as you remember it. He takes beautiful formal photographs, but all the photos we have on our walls are candid and artistic. They remind us of all the emotion of the day and the amazing amount of fun we had. The photographs that hang on my wall are the most visible and permanent memory of my wedding, and I am so grateful to have had such an incredible photographer.
Matthew and Liz did a spectacular job photographic our big weekend. Matthew was easy to talk to and genuinely cared about getting to know us beforehand so he could capture our style and personality in his photos. We even sent him our favorite and worst engagement photos taken by another company so he could see what worked for us and what we would need some coaching on. The weekend of, Liz photographed our Rehearsal Dinner and did a great job capturing group shots at the cocktail hour and all the emotions that go along with toasts. The day of our wedding, both Matthew and Liz were phenomenal at capturing the little moments and conversations and the big moments on the dance floor. The were extremely professional and fun to work with and I am absolutely in love with our final product. The only problem now is trying to figure out which ones to print and frame because we have so many favorites!
HIGH PRAISE for Matt and Liz, their style is flexible and fun, they adapt themselves to the situation very nicely and give great direction. Matt has a beautiful eye and it shows in the final shot, they deliver a subtle, gracious, and stunning product & service!
Matt and Liz were fantastic!! They are everything you could hope for in a photographer. They are so helpful and easy to talk to . You can tell that they love what they do. Our wedding pictures turned out perfectly. They are the best, and they have the best prices. We would recommend them to everyone!
Working with Matt and Liz was 100% seamless from the first email. They're friendly and responsive, they take incredible photographs, and they're very good with making everybody feel (and look) comfortable even shy ones or grumps. Their prices are excellent for the quality and we were amazed at how quickly we got the photographs. Can't go wrong with this team.
Matthew Foster Photography did our engagement and wedding photos. We had such a blast during our engagement photos we knew the wedding would be just as fun!! They did an amazing job with all of it and made me very happy at how beautiful the wedding pictures came out! I recommend them very highly!!!
Matt and Liz are the literal best. They were so lovely to have as part of our wedding day and the photos are incredible. I hear from friends and family almost daily telling me our photos are the best they have seen. If you are lucky enough that they have your date available, book them while you can!
Matthew and Liz did an amazing job! We can't say enough about them. They were super easy to work with throughout the entire process. We have received so many compliments from our friends and family regarding their professionalism during our wedding day, how friendly they were, and most importantly how beautiful the pictures are.
There are no words to express how happy we are with the decision to hire Matt. My family has been raving about the quality of the photos and how nice it was to have Matt at the wedding. He is not only an amazing photographer, he's also an all around great guy to have at your event. He even offered me assistance in planning details leading up to the event that had nothing to do with the photography aspect. My other vendors all spoke so highly of Matt I knew I was in good hands. But wow, when we got the photos I was blown away. Thank you so much, Matt and Liz!
