About this vendor
Hi! I'm Mattie, and it's so great to meet you! I am a mom to two boys, director at a nonprofit, a lover of cycling, and your friendly Williamsburg wedding photographer (not quite as cool as spider man, but I'm willing to climb or lay on anything to get that perfect photo!).
My business started quite organically, thinking I could spend money on a camera instead of paying someone to photograph my kids. Along the way, after practicing on everyone I knew, I fell in love with wedding photography - from the tender first look moments to family member drama (it happens) and dancing the night away, I love to celebrate with you all throughout your special day.
My style is very bright and airy, with timeless and true to life colors. If you're looking for a photographer who will bring joy to your day and encourage you with a huge smile, let's connect!

Mattie was the first vendor we booked for our wedding, because she did the photos for my best friend's wedding five years ago and I knew before we got engaged that I wanted her to...
do our pictures too! She is such a sweet and kind person, and made us both feel so at ease both for our engagement session and our wedding day. Her husband is her second shooter for events and he was also so wonderful to work with! I can't recommend her enough! The sneak peek photos we've received are absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to see the rest!
Mattie and her husband were an absolute joy to work with during my engagement session and throughout the wedding day itself. I’m so happy with how the photos came out, and also tha...

Hiring Mattie is absolutely one of the VERY BEST DECISIONS I made in my whole wedding planning process! She is more than a wonderful photographer - she is also a coach, helping us ...
to look our very best with tiny moves that read so well in pictures. My whole bridal party loved her, and she so beautifully captured the joy and love we felt all day long! Going back through the photos makes me so wistful, because her images just bring back all the emotions from our wedding day - exactly as the best photographers do. If you're looking for classic and bright images, and a true friend and coach who will make sure you look and feel your absolute best -- don't hesitate a moment longer!
Mattie did such a phenomenal job as the photographer at our wedding!! The pictures look straight out of a bridal magazine. Mattie was there the entire time, and she was very attent...

them. She captured our love so wonderfully. I would recommend her to anyone!
My husband and I can't thank Mattie and her husband Zeko enough for the beautiful photographs they captured on our wedding day, as well as our engagement pictures. Her light and ai...
ry style was just what I was looking for! Mattie was a joy to work with, and she is a true blessing. She was extremely patient while working with two people who had never had professional pictures taken before (we were totally clueless and awkward). Mattie came to the rescue on our wedding day when Mother Nature was not planning to work on our favor. She helped me create an entirely new timeline that allowed for whatever weather came our way. Mattie is also dedicated to her work. I had my entire wedding album delivered to me before most other photographers would even send you sneak peaks - talk about a timely manner and amazing service! You will not be disappointed by signing with this amazing young lady. I will definitely be using Mattie again for future photos <3

usband, but it turned out to be such an amazing experience where we all felt comfortable and looked amazing in all the pictures!
For our wedding, we had an emergency the day of so we had to reschedule our special day. Mattie was extremely accommodating and still worked our rescheduled wedding a few weeks later with such grace. Even though we didn’t have both photographers for our wedding and I felt extremely disorganized with so many changes, Mattie was super flexible and seemed to be everywhere. The pictures were bright, beautiful, and showed our classy yet fun personalities. I was especially impressed with how she worked with the crazy groomsmen and how she set up the before-the-wedding shots (invitation suite, rings, wedding dress, etc).
The Mattie Wezah Photography crew was such a blessing during such a difficult and special time for us and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you so much again! Recommending you to everyone I know in the Hampton Roads!
Mattie is such a wonderful person and more amazing photographer. She photographed our country al fresco ceremony and dinner. The details, laughs and love captured between our fami...
ly and friends and most importantly, us is something we still treasure. She worked with the lighting, timing of events and what photos we wanted easily. We have moved out of state or she would still be capturing family photos for us today.
She was so flexible with us and our mini-mony. Sooo friendly and easy to work with. And the results were GORGEOUS!!
Mattie and her husband were absolutely AMAZING to work with! There was not one time where Mattie was not smiling. My husband and I could tell she was genuinely happy to be present ...
during our wedding. She remained enthusiastic, but calm and bubbly the entire time. This helped me a lot on the wedding day, amidst all the moving pieces.
Her photos were also simply stunning. If you are looking for a photographer who knows how to use natural lighting and not require crazy edits to make them look good, Mattie is for you.
I cannot thank Mattie enough, thank you Mattie!!
Mattie is amazing! We hired her to do our wedding photos and could not be happier with the results. She knew exactly how to pose us and find the perfect lighting and angles all whi...
le making it look and feel completely natural. She is extremely respectful, professional, and imaginative, and I really appreciated how she embraced our vision and worked with us to generate the exact feeling we wanted for our special day. It felt like she was creating a work of art dedicated completely to us. I feel very fortunate that we found her and would recommend her 100% to anyone. If you are seeking to document a special occasion for posterity or create memories you will cherish forever, she is the person you want.
