When you book with Alec, you get an engagement photo shoot, a save-the-date, wedding shoot, wedding photos on a flash drive, and a wedding photo album. You also have the option to purchase the engagement photo flash drive and any photo prints. From the second the engagement shoot started, you can tell Alec is all about his work. And boy does he love it. He isn't afraid to get on the ground, climb things, juggle 100 items just for the perfect shot. As long as you're willing to work with Alec's creativity, he cannot be stopped. Every photo we have ever received has been absolute perfection. You can see the love he puts into the photos and the editing. Alec is even so amazing at communicating; from the booking to what he wants you to do for the photo. Alec is a man of passion and we know we have a photographer for life.

Don't hire this man if you actually want to remember your wedding in a good light. As a photographer this man uses low f-stops and deep depth to hide the fact he can't compose for shit. But beside that he fucks over brides and never sends photos.

I hired Pauleen to help me with wedding design services. I had a vision of how I wanted my wedding…read moreto look but I really didn't know how to tie everything together. I really relied on her experience to turn my ideas into a beautiful finished event that my guests couldn't stop raving about. Her attention to detail is what really helped take my wedding to the next level. She thought of the little things that I never would have thought of, and those are the details that matter. Hiring an event designer isn't just for big budget affairs. In fact I would recommend her even more for people on tight budgets because she really helped me get the most out of my money. She is very handy, creating much of the decor herself which really helps control costs. It's easy to throw a great party with a 100k budget, for the rest of us, there are people like Pauleen. On the day of my wedding I knew everything was in good hands and I didn't worry about a thing. That piece of mind was worth every penny in hiring Pauleen.

There is no way we could have (calmly and sanely) made it through our wedding day without Pauleen!…read moreWith a park wedding venue without any staff, Pauleen was vital in coordinating and making the day go off without a hitch.

Considering we were living in California and getting married in upstate NY, it was almost a shot in the dark. Of course we had checked out the website and instantly fell in love with his style. We got married at the Glen Iris Inn which is inside a state park that has a gigantic waterfall in the background. Paul "threw in" a second photographer for no extra charge because I guess it's a good place to build up your portfolio which worked for us : ) The assistant met with my husband and his friends to capture them getting ready, while Paul came to take pictures of me and my girls. They were both very personable, outgoing and professional. They really took care of us on our big day and did an amazing job capturing so many wonderful moments. The pictures and our wedding album came out perfect!

If there's one thing you should take away from this review - it's that Matt is an incredibly…read moretalented photographer and you'll have no regrets hiring him for your wedding. Read on to learn why! We found Matt after admiring his work on Instagram. We loved his eye for candid moments. And while Matt doesn't like the word "moody", we loved his use of natural light and "romantic" *cough* *moody* photography style. ;) With a background in video/photo production, searching for a photographer was a serious, time-consuming task for me. I had a very specific style of photography in mind, as well as a budget to adhere to. I waited a very long time before ultimately reaching out to Matt (only because he was actually a little outside of our budget) ...but I kept finding myself gravitating towards his work. And after our first call, in my gut I knew - he was who we were looking for. **PLANNING** You don't have to be a bride to know how important communication is when planning a wedding. Matt was super responsive via email (even if it was to tell us he would respond at a later point) and always available to schedule a call when he wasn't already shooting a wedding. After a call to see if we were a good fit, he followed up promptly with a contract, booking form and my own portal to his site where everything would be stored. LOVE IT! Bookmark that shizz ladies... Closer to the wedding, we jumped on a call to walk through his typical shot list and customized it to our day. Matt helped us consider the best ways to utilize him as a photographer, but also gave us a few ideas on how to keep our guests happy while we were off taking sunset photos. CAKE, CAKE, CAKE, CAKE... ;D **PRICING** Matt's prices are obviously subject to change as his fame and talent grow... ;D But brides, I also know how extremely frustrating it is to be looking at photographers (or any vendor for that matter) and not know what anyone charges!! (Know your audience wedding vendors - list your prices!!) At the time we hired Matt, we hired him for a "Partial Day" which included 8hrs of coverage for $3500. He also had "Full Day" (12hrs - $4000) + "Elopement" (2hrs - $1200) packages. And offered a second shooter for $300/$250 for the day. MATT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY! His partial/full day packages also include an "Engagement Session" which I believe is very important in getting to know your photographer. Unfortunately, my husband + I live in San Diego, and so nowhere near Matt or where we were getting married. He worked with us to reflect this in his package, and ultimately fit within our budget. *Whatapro! We also didn't hire a second shooter...and honestly not so sure we needed one. Matt covered a lot of ground. **DAY OF...** Matt came out early to our venue and scouted around for sunset and family shots to put our minds at ease. And as we started to arrive he offered to help with anything we might need. #sweetheart. He knew when to be assertive and give us some much-needed direction and how to fade into the shadows and let a moment play out for that perfect candid. I think the biggest surprise of our wedding day was hearing from all our guests how much they LOVED our photographer. I wasn't surprised by the fact Matt is a sweet guy, we already knew that. We loved him too. But think about that...how many weddings have you been to where you told the couple you loved their photographer? But after reviewing all our beautiful photos, we understand why. He did an amazing job of capturing all the love, joy and beauty that was our wedding day. And we are forever thankful! I feel like I can't possibly capture everything in a review so feel free to message me if any questions!
