I just can't speak highly enough about Matt and Kendra. They went above and beyond any expectation I ever had. Kendra was just so personable and sweet the moment we met her. It was as though we were friends. Matt did our engagement photos and he captured or essence so beautifully. I never felt like I was posing just VERY natural. The wedding was unbelievable. Kendra and Tiffany were not only great photographers, they made it comfortable and natural. They captured not only Joe and I but ALL of the guests. Kendra not only took pictures but helped with my bustle, helped with whatever I needed. She was MORE than a photographer they were like friends.. THEN the best thing we got our photos and SO much more. So above and beyond. They sent a beautiful gift with the most sincere note. If you are looking for a photographer.. don't look further. They are the best. Personable, kind and their photos make it so difficult to make an album because I love them ALL. They will forever be our photographer for any and every event or family photo session read more

Summer Street Photography - Session Photography Near Me - St Paul, Minnesota

Kendra and Matt took our Engagement photos a few weeks ago and we couldn't be happier. They were very professional yet laid back enough to work with us (especially camera shy me). Communication was so easy from pre-booking all the way past the time when our photos arrived. Matt and Kendra have an easy going yet focused aire about them and it makes your special day easy to capture. I love, love, love our photos and I can't recommend them enough! Sadly, they are booked for our wedding day, that's the only thing we would change! read more

From the beginning, Summer Street was amazing to work with for our wedding. They made the day of incredibly stress free while being efficient and incredibly fun during a packed day-of schedule. Prior to the wedding, their communication was prompt and the planning steps were very organized. read more

Kendra and Matt embody a very special combination of skill in their craft and personality, which results in images that will absolutely blow you away! From our first meeting, we instantly felt comfortable with Kendra and Matt. They took the time to get to know us on a personal level and understand our vision for our wedding day. We had such a blast chatting with them during our first meeting, that we couldn't wait until our engagement shoot! After two failed attempts for our shoot due to rainy weather, we finally met up on a warm, sunny afternoon at a location of Kendra's suggestion - Minute Man Park in Concord. We weren't sure what to expect during the shoot, as it was a first for both of us, but we were able to shake the nerves pretty quickly thanks to the guidance they both provided. The technical skill and creativity that both Kendra and Matt possess is immediately evident in working with them. They play off each other so well and each bring unique ideas to the table, but still achieve a cohesive body of work. To say that they are in tune as a photography team is an understatement! Following the shoot, it took them only a week to deliver the final product and we are so incredibly thrilled with the results! The images are natural and beautiful. We are so blessed to have had the opportunity for Summer Street to capture this special time in our lives. We are so looking forward to working with Summer Street on our wedding next summer! read more

Highly, highly recommend Summer Street! Kendra was so easy to work with in the planning leading up to our wedding day, and Chuck was perfect as our actual photographer. He caught amazing photos and super professionally managed getting the shots we wanted of various family combinations. We received the photos last week and have pretty much not stopped looking at them since! The ease that my husband and I felt around Chuck is obvious in the photos (as two introverts we were a little nervous about this in advance, which we shouldn't have been!), and we're so grateful for how easy and wonderful the entire process of working with Summer Street was! read more

We were recommended to Summer Street Photography, by a friend, and they were fantastic! They were very personable throughout the whole process, sending a welcome packet, creating a photo shot list, and even coming to Chicago for our engagement photos and wedding. Matt and Kendra are also great photographers - we loved how the photos turned out and have gotten several compliments on them. They also delivered them so quickly, less than 2 weeks after the wedding. They are great at capturing candid moments. They made us feel comfortable, and we never felt like we were in unnatural poses. We would definitely recommend to anyone! read more

Hiring Summer Street Photography was the best decision we made throughout our wedding planning process. Kendra and Matt are fantastic photographers and great people. We could not be happier with our wedding photos. Our wedding day was VERY rainy and therefore, we could not take any photos outside as we planned to. Kendra and Matt were so flexible and found covered outdoor spaces so we could have natural light and the same outdoor look. Kendra even went outside in the pouring rain to photograph our bouquets in the natural light! They were so prepared for our wedding day and actually helped the whole wedding go more smoothly. My new husband and I highly recommend Summer Street Photography! read more

One of the most important things for my husband and I when planning our wedding was finding the best photographers to capture one of the most important days of our life. We took this task on first, researched endlessly, and met with several photographers. Our search came to an end when we met with Summer Street Photography! It was clear from the beginning that Kendra and Matt's work spoke for itself. They are both incredibly talented, have a great eye, and create the most beautifully natural pictures. All of these aspects were incredibly important to us. But beyond their talent, Kendra and Matt are kind, welcoming and truly care about their clients. They made my husband and I feel so comfortable. Summer Street Photography is a rare gem - Matt and Kendra truly understand client service, their quality of work is of the highest, they are extremely professional, and they make the wedding planning process a complete breeze. I never once had to follow up with them or feel like I was not receiving the attention needed during such a stressful time. Both our engagement and wedding pictures are absolutely stunning and we are so happy that we choose Summer Street. We would highly recommend them - you will not be disappointed! read more

Cannot say enough good things about working with Matt and Kendra for our wedding in St. Paul. Matt was our photographer and even though we didn't meet him until the day of the wedding (Kendra managed all the pre-work) working with him was super comfortable and seamless. We were a little nervous about only having 1 photographer, but it was perfect for our 75 guest wedding. The pictures came out amazing. The most important thing for us was photos that captured the essence of the day (as opposed to lots of perfectly posed shots). Not only did Matt and Kendra deliver photos that bring me back to the emotions of love, joy, and gratitude from the day there is also some truly beautiful portraiture. Best of both worlds with these two- look no further for your wedding photographer. read more

My wife and I searched long and hard through the myriad of professional photographers operating these days and found a lot of really mediocre work out there. Given our relatively tight budgetary constraints as well as the need to have our second wedding celebration captured in the style we liked, we were a little daunted. Finding Summer Street Photography was like coming upon an oasis in a desert of just-ok or overpriced photography. Kendra and Matt met with us at a local Irish Pub and were so interested and involved in our little wedding project from day one. The quality of their work turned out to be excellent and just what we wanted, which was a blend of traditional and neo-classical shots with an incredibly relaxed and natural feel to them. Their use of subtle tones and hues is great and they even brought along a few rolls of film on the wedding day to shoot the good old way. Kendra and Matt were absolutely up to shooting anywhere we wanted on our big day whilst also stepping in at just the right moments to guide the photography process in the right direction with very gentle and subtle hands. We can truly say that these are two superb photographers who will make your memories live on in exceptional beauty forever! read more

Kendra and Matt are absolutely spectacular! Everyone needs to book them now because they are going to be world famous soon! We found them online and after our first meeting I knew they were the perfect photographers for our wedding. I also hoped we would become friends with them because they are the sweetest most down to earth couple ever! In July we had our engagement session and when those pictures came back I was absolutely floored. It looked like pictures out of a magazine. They were like pieces of art but they were also so intimate. I couldn't wait for them to photograph our wedding. Our wedding was set to take place on August 28th with the ceremony and reception outside. Unfortunately Hurricane Irene had different plans for us. Two days before our wedding we had to figure out how to take all of our outdoor events and make them indoors. Kendra and Matt were 100% flexible. They showed up that day and jumped right in. We got our pictures today and I am in tears (of the happy variety). They are SOOO beautiful, beyond words kind of beautiful. They captured every moment I could have imagined and then some. You can truly see how happy we were on that day. I always said I'm not going to be one of those people who put pictures of their wedding all over their house but with pictures this amazing I can't help myself. So, in conclusion Matt and Kendra from Summer Street Photography are the best photographers ever and I feel certain I'm not even slightly over exaggerating. read more

You will not regret hiring Kendra and Matt. Their work is EXCEPTIONALLY AMAZING! On top of their beautiful photography they are amazing people as well. They are very easy to work with and genuinely care about their clients. We used them for our engagement session and for our wedding. After searching for months and interviewing different photographers, we finally stumbled upon Matt and Kendra while attempting to find a local photographer. Now a days, anyone with a DSLR calls themselves a photographer but Matt and Kendra, are true professionals and their work more speaks for itself. If you want amazing beautiful photos that look like they should be in a magazine, hire Kendra and Matt ASAP! read more

Kendra and Matt were WONDERFUL! We were pleased with the whole process of having our wedding photos done - this coming from an out of town bride. I have been to (and been in) many weddings and never found the photographers to be so efficient at working through the standard pictures to get you back to the fun. They blended in well with our family and friends and everyone was at ease. Even with such a great experience, we were still blown away when we received our photos (in a prompt turn around). THE FINISHED PHOTOS WERE AMAZING. Kendra and Matt are masters. They did a phenomenal job capturing our day! The colors in the photos really pop and the artistic value is there without being over done. Our only trouble is deciding which of the photos we want for our big prints as there are so many to choose from. read more

Where do I even start.....Kendra and Matt were such a joy to work with! Since they were in Boston, and we, in Minnesota - we never got a chance to meet in person before choosing them, but via phone calls, skype and emails - they were always super responsive with all of our questions. From the engagement shoot all the way to our wedding photos, we could not be more thrilled with the work they produce. Especially considering it was the first Indian wedding they did - I would hands down hire them all over again - and I hope to use them again for future events :) They were so easy to work with, and made us feel like models in our engagement & wedding pics. Love them!! read more

We were lucky to have found Matt and Kendra, to be honest we were very nervous about taking our engagement pictures. Matt and Kendra helped us relax as we walked around the Public Gardens and Comm Ave in Boston with our dog.Our session was scheduled to be around the tragic Marathon events. Because of this we had to change the dates which wasn't easy, but Matt and Kendra were very helpful and willing to fit our schedules. Everything was very easy with them, from scheduling to delivering, we have received the pictures and they look amazing! the quality is incredible, the only regret we have is not having hired them to do our wedding pictures, since they are booked. I would recommend Summer Street Photography to anyone! good luck! read more

I cannot possibly put into words how happy I am with my wedding photography. Of all the factors that go into wedding planning, they say the most important choice should be your photographer as their work will be the only thing that lasts. So, I searched and researched about local photographers. I could not have been more pleased when I found Summer Street. They gave me exactly what i was hoping for at exactly what I had hoped for budget wise. Beyond that, the artistic quality of their work is unparalleled in wedding photography. I really felt they understood who my groom and I are as people and as a couple and captured it in the photography. They also have incredible talent for capturing the surroundings and the small details of the day. Alos, they are just really incredibly awesome people who are so nice and communicative and you can tell that capturing the day in photos is just as important to them as it is to you. Right before the wedding, I had one of the most emotional moments of my day with Kendra beside me talking me through it like a friend. These are great photographers and great people. read more

I am so, so pleased with how our engagement photos turned out! We're getting married out-of-state but needed local services for our engagement photos. My high-end hair and beauty stylists dropped so many photographer names to check out, but their prices were outrageous. I stumbled upon Summer Street online, and I was really drawn to their photography style in terms of light. We booked them, sight unseen, and hoped for the best, especially given the reasonable price in the typically overpriced Boston market. Kendra and Matt were wonderful -- timely, kind, gave good direction, and very professional. We shot in the public library, Back Bay, and public garden, and I think they took over 600 photos in under 2 hours. They said to expect the cut of the best 200 in around a week or so, but they were so prompt and had them ready the next day. We had a really hard time narrowing it down to our 50 choices that we paid for because all of the photos were so beautiful. The edited copies were sent out a mere few days later. Our shoot was in April, so I would imagine the timing might be slightly longer during peak wedding season, but it was very clear that Kendra and Matt are really prompt with all of their work. Overall, I could not be happier with the services of Summer Street. I know that Kendra and Matt are not originally from Massachusetts, but I secretly hope that they stay here permanently so that I can use them again in the future as our family grows! read more
