Matt photographed our wedding. In terms of photos, we didn't know what we wanted, but he came right in with recommendations for our small wedding size.
He was able to make all the...
photo subject configurations for our big day. This was such a relief, we didn't have to worry about anyone missing a shot they wanted. We were able to focus on being with our family. He also had great ideas to highlight our traditional clothing.
Matt was on time, tidy, and professional. He delivered the finished product on the timeline he promised.
Thanks for capturing our day, Matt!
Our photographer was incredibly skillful and attentive throughout the entire day. He was patient, professional, and made us feel completely at ease, which truly shows in the photos...

. They brought so much efficiency and good humor to our big day - not to mention how beautifully they captured every special moment and got samples to us in record time. Our families keep raving about what an excellent job our photographers did and we couldn’t be happier! 12/10, will always recommend The Clausen Gallery.
I don’t usually write recommendations unless the company/experience is exceptionally good or very bad. In this case, they were exceptionally good!! I can’t say enough wonderful thi...
ngs about The Clausen Gallery! If there’s one thing to splurge on for a wedding–as a past bride–I would say splurge on photos! Photos capture all the emotions, details, and candid moments that the bride and groom often miss while busy on their special day. I’m so glad we hired The Clausen Gallery. We are in love with how our photos came out! We don’t know which to hang! Matt and Jessica make a wonderful team. They were both so helpful and kind to work with and helped make our day less stressful. From a couple months before the wedding to the wedding day they were prepared and communicated in a timely manner. Their adaptability, attentiveness, and professionalism is something that I noticed and played a role in writing a good review. Could not recommend them enough to anyone looking for a photographer.
We are absolutely THRILLED that The Clausen Gallery captured our wedding! Matt and Jessica were on top of everything from our first phone call! They were quick to respond via text ...
or email, were so personable, and ran everything so smoothly. The pictures are absolutely stunning.

We cannot thank them enough! HIGHLY recommend!!

She did not hesitate to step in and help in any way possible to ensure our photos were top notch! Matt was awesome to say the least! He was super communicative, helping guide us every step of the day! Just an incredible team!! We got a samples of our photos the very next day which was a beautiful surprise.

We are beyond thrilled with our experience with The Clausen Gallery. From the very beginning, they were professional, communicative, and truly invested in capturing our special day...
just the way we envisioned. Their calm, positive energy made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and that really shows in the photos.
Every detail, from the candid moments to the beautifully composed portraits, was captured with such care and artistry. Looking through our wedding gallery felt like reliving the entire day all over again. They didn’t just document our wedding, they told our story.
The turnaround time was fast and the quality of the photos exceeded all expectations. We’ve received so many compliments from family and friends and we’ll treasure these memories forever thanks to The Clausen Gallery.
If you're looking for photographers who are not only incredibly talented but also a joy to work with, look no further. We can’t recommend them highly enough.
Thanks again
Mr and Mrs. Montes
From the very first interaction to the final moments of our wedding day, Matt & Jessica were nothing short of phenomenal. Their professionalism, warmth, and genuine presence set th...
e tone for an experience that went far beyond photography, it felt like having another trusted friend by our side, capturing every moment with care, intention, and artistry.
We were absolutely blown away when we received a generous selection of sample photos the very next day. Each one was stunning, full of emotion, movement, and the kind of magic that only a true artist can capture. It gave us chills just thinking about how incredible the full album will be. They didn’t just document our wedding, they told the story of it in a way we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives.
What sets them apart is how seamlessly they blended into the day, making everyone feel comfortable and seen. They have this incredible ability to anticipate moments, catch the laughter between poses, and preserve the quiet, intimate glances that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. Every photo we’ve seen so far holds a memory, a real one, not just a posed image.
Having them as part of our special day was one of the best decisions we made. They didn’t just elevate the experience, they became a meaningful part of it. We are so grateful for their talent, their heart, and the unforgettable memories they helped us preserve forever.
If you’re lucky enough to book them—do it!! You won’t regret it for a second.
We are beyond grateful to have had The Clausen Gallery as our wedding photographers. They went above and beyond to deliver stunning photos, not only from our wedding day but also f...
rom our engagement shoot. From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive, flexible, and thoughtful in their approach.
They came fully prepared and made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. The photo sessions themselves were quick, easy, and never felt forced or awkward, which is such a gift on a busy wedding day. Their creative direction and eye for detail resulted in breathtaking shots that we’ll treasure forever. They offered great pose suggestions while also capturing so many natural, candid moments that truly reflected how the day felt.
If you’re looking for gorgeous, timeless photos of your special day, we highly recommend The Clausen Gallery. Their talent, professionalism, and warmth truly set them apart.
Matt and Jessica truly are a dynamic duo!!
From day one of inquiry, the Clausen Gallery had our trust from their responsive & open communication. Being new at weddings, they helpe...
d to answer any and all questions we had about the process! They even helped us develop a timeline schedule for our actual wedding, which was so useful and helpful beyond imaginable.
As photographers, they made taking photos feel so comfortable and easy, they BEAUTIFULLY captured who we are as people in our photos (which is so special), and the turn around time of getting our photos back was SO fast.
On the day of our wedding, Matt and Jessica were not just photographers, they were so much more.. They helped with my bustle, provided marriage license guidance, and even found people for us that we needed all without us asking.
They truly helped make our day run so smooth and we couldn't be more thankful. Thank you for going above and beyond for our special day Matt and Jessica, it means the world.
I promise if you go with The Clausen Gallery, you will not be disappointed!
Matt was seriously the best photographer I have ever worked with! For reference, he shot our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. Matt was very punctual, and made the e...
ntire process so easy on my wife and I. He has immaculate communication skills, and was completely upfront with us every step of the way. He got every shot that we had in mind, but then blew us away by capturing SO many more photos that completely surprised us when he sent us the final photos. Matt captured our wedding day beyond perfectly, and I honestly barely even knew he was there half the time. I seriously have no clue how he got the shots he did, he totally exceeded our expectations!
If you’re on the fence about hiring him, please use this as your deciding factor. He literally made our dreams come true with the engagement and wedding photos. We now have memories in time that will last us generations to remind ourselves and family/friends of the happiest and most important day of our lives!
Thanks again Matt, you’re incredible!
Matt and Jessica were amazing — we can’t recommend them enough! They are an incredible team who go above and beyond to capture every moment beautifully. From the very start, their ...
professionalism stood out. Their communication through email and message leading up to the big day and afterwards was appreciated and reassuring. On our wedding day, they were everywhere they needed to be without ever feeling intrusive. Both Matt and Jessica captured amazing shots, but Jessica was especially a lifesaver in so many little ways beyond photography that made a big difference with helping out! Their turnaround time blew us away; we had 50 sample photos the very next day, and the full gallery was delivered before we even got back from our honeymoon. If you’re looking for photographers who are organized, thoughtful, and incredibly talented, The Clausen Gallery is it. We’re so thankful we had them with us on our big day!
Matt and Jessica are a must have addition to the wedding team. They are wonderful professionals who were responsive and straightforward in communication. They are organized and fle...
xible in their methods, and we felt very comfortable with them throughout the wedding day. They blended seamlessly into the events and captured many sweet moments of us as the couple and our guests throughout the day. We are so happy to have found them as our photography team!
Matt was absolutely the best photographer I could have asked for for my wedding and engagement photos. The pictures came out beautifully and he has great prices. Thank you so much ...
again!!
The Clausen Gallery was an excellent choice for our wedding photography. Price is great compared to others, very reasonable for the amount of hours they cover and the quality of th...
eir work. Price is one of the reasons why I picked Clausen. The other is communication. Communication with Matt and Jessica was amazing - they answered all of our questions immediately and made the process very smooth. When I inquired, they answered right away and were consistent. I never had to wait long to get a response, which is amazing. The sample images we saw beforehand were high quality and clear, giving us confidence in their work. On the day of our wedding, Matt and Jessica were amazing photographers who captured all the special moments beautifully. They were also very helpful, going above and beyond to make sure everything went perfectly. We're thrilled with the photos and would highly recommend The Clausen Gallery to any couple looking for talented and professional wedding photographers.

When we saw the photos, we were so grateful. They captured the moments and emotions that mean the most to us, with such care and attention to detail. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and feel incredibly lucky to have these beautiful memories to look back on for years to come.
Words cannot express how wonderful our experience was with The Clausen Gallery. This duo is all you need to capture all your special moments. Matt and Jessica were both very friend...

If you are looking for a great photography team, look no further! This is the real deal!

Matt and Jessica are the absolute best and we would recommend them to anyone looking for a great wedding day experience! They were so easy and fun to work with and captured so many...
planned and impromptu moments perfectly, we couldn’t be happier with the job they did!
They made sure to capture all pre-requested photos (different family combinations, etc.) and were also incredibly quick in turning around the photos which we greatly appreciated (the full gallery was available in a week!)
Matt and Jessica were a joy to work with and did such a great job, they should be the top choice for anyone looking for a photographer for a wedding or any other event!!
I'm a Wedding Coordinator and had the pleasure of working with Matt and Jessica on a wedding in the Redwoods a few weeks ago. What a great team! Their photos are beautiful. They wo...
rked so well with the wedding party and made everyone feel comfortable and excited.
As a fellow vendor, working with them was a breeze. They were communicative ahead of time, accommodating to last-minute changes, and always had smiles on their faces. They even saved the day with a creative alternative for a dessert photo op that the bride and groom LOVED when we realized the cake did not make it to the venue.
I can't wait to work with them again on future events! And I'd highly recommend them to any couple looking for a photographer for their big day.
Matt and Jessica absolutely crushed it. They communicated extremely well and our photos turned out great. Super fast turn around and very flexible with our requests. They gave us g...
reat suggestions while also handling our long list of photos with ease. They were professional and captured great photos through the night no matter the lighting or chaos that surrounded them while we were on the dance floor. I’d highly recommend Clausen for your wedding.
It was a pleasure to work the Clausen Gallery. Matt was extremely helpful, talented, observant, and creative. He captured all the sweet moments of our wedding and we will enjoy his...

esome!!
He was so bad that we used Matt for three different ocassions, for my wife and I's wedding, for our first child baby bump pics, and then for our daughters baby bump pics.
In all ...
seriousness though, Matt does exceptional work and does just the perfect amount of editing/adjusting of colors to make all the photos just look magical. My wife and I absolutely love his work and will be using him for any other special ocassions we have, whatever that may be!
Thank you Matt for not only being super professional, but for being a kind and hard working photographer / person. I'm coming here to give him a review because building a brand myself I realize that reviews are absolutely crucial. So if you've gone with Matt and you've gotten the same exceptional work I have, you should ALSO just leave him some love. It helps out his livelihood.
Matt took our engagement photos over the weekend and got them back to us so fast! He was super responsive to all our questions and picked the perfect location for photos. We love t...

d his incredible partner Jessica! (She even saved the day with extra strength hairspray :) ) They made us feel so comfortable and went above and beyond to capture not only great portraits but also all of the authentic moments throughout the night- from emotional ceremony tears to a packed dance floor. Their turnaround time for the gallery was also less than a week- insanely impressive and so appreciated. They knocked it out of the park!!
We hired The Clausen Gallery for our wedding in Fresno, CA on 7/1/23. Matt was able to capture every detail of the event (ceremony, reception, and party). He was very professional,...
detail oriented, communicated via email, texts, and through phone conversations. Photos were available in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend The Clausen Gallery and consider using their services in the future.
I'm absolutely obsessed with the photos from The Clausen Gallery! Matt and Jessica are amazing photographers and great people to work with.
I had a full-service planner for my we...
dding but they provided so much information ahead of my wedding date along with tips and tricks, vendor recommendations, and info about timelines that I felt like I could have planned it myself. They were so responsive and checked in regularly ahead of the wedding date.
On the day, they arrive on time and ready to shoot. They were great at catching the most intimate moments between myself and the bridesmaids as well as my husband and his groomsmen ahead of the ceremony. They also had a great eye for the little details we would want to be captured on film. I didn't feel like they were directing us too much, rather, they were capturing the important moments as we enjoyed our day and experienced it fully.
The posed portraits we asked for were not awkward and went by so quickly. We were able to get great shots and authentic smiles with the direction and assistance from Matt and Jessica.
Where they really shine is action shots! When I saw the bouquet toss photos I was so impressed. We were joking that my aunt pushed someone to get the bouquet and Matt and Jessica captured the exact moment when it happed. The reception was captured perfectly! With the same care and attention to detail as our getting-ready photos, we have all the best moments on film without feeling like we had to ask for anything. They instinctively know when a photo moment is happening!
We had preview images in less than 24 hours and we received our full gallery a week after the wedding. Their speed, quality, attention to detail, and professionalism are absolutely unmatched! I've worked with other event photographers all over the US for my day job and I can honestly say they are the best photographers I've ever worked with.
We are beyond grateful for their amazing work and I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer!
Matt and his partner were amazing photographers! They went above and beyond to get all the shots we wanted. We highly recommend 😊
Let's start with 100% recommend The Clausen Gallery! Professional and exceeded expectations!!
We originally found The Clausen Gallery on Instagram and after viewing the posts of...
the style and quality of the photos they took, we booked them. They provided exceptional communication from first contact through after we were provided with a gallery of the photos taken of our wedding. Additionally, we felt that Matt and Jessisa were amazing on our wedding day. From the time they arrived to the end of their shoot time, Matt and Jessica were great at getting the shot without disruption. We loved how Matt took the photos, Jessica ensured to fluff my wife's train, fanned her, offered refreshments and both ensured to avoid any wet spots around the alter so her dress didn't get dirty or wet. They offered and took suggestions from our guests and to add to the Clausen's awesomeness, there was a guest who had a reaction to something eaten and Jessica offered some meds to relieve the rash. Truly added to our wonderful day!
Matt and Jessica did such and amazing job! From our engagement shoot to our actual wedding! They have such a talent at capturing memories in action. They also got our photos back t...
o us super quick! Within the same week! I feel like I’m reliving my wedding day looking at these pictures! They are so easy going and friendly. We felt so comfortable with them. They were so easy to work with. When guests wanted pictures with us, Matt even took pictures with their phones as well. That was so nice of him! If you’re looking to book a photographer who can make you feel like you’re reliving your magical day again, choose The Clausen Gallery. They are truly great at what they do! You will not be disappointed! 10/10
These two… From the first phone call through end of the night on the day of, Matt and Jessica were above and beyond! Great communication, fast turnaround and just overall fantastic...
