    Definitely recommend!!!

    I just used them for my wedding in December and I am so happy my wedding planner suggested them. I really liked his work I saw on social media so I went with them and i'm so glad i did. I also had Matt do our engagement photos which were amazing! I have a million great photos from the wedding it's so hard to pick out my favorites! He has such an artistic eye and you will not be disappointed !

    Hire Matt and Liz Immediately!

    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!

    Incredible

    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

    Phenomenal hands down

    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!

    The best wedding photographers!

    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!

    Amazing people, fantastic photographers!

    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!

    Amazing!!!

    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!!

    Photography superhero! Wow, amazing, incredible, professional and fun!

    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!!!

    Matt and Liz are wonderful! They are professional, responsive, and truly talented photographers. Narrowing down the 1400 photos for an album is going to be a challenge!! Thank you both! We loved working with you!

    Can flexibility be higher than 5 stars? So glad we chose Matt!

    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!

    Best Photographer in NOLA

    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!

    One word..... WOW

    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 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!

    Beautiful Photos to Capture Beautiful Moments!

    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! If you want to see more of their work, be sure to check out their Facebook, Instagram, and Website.

    Amazing Team and Beautiful Photos

    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.

    Beyond Amazing

    Matt and Liz are two of the most creative, positive, professional photographers you will ever be lucky enough to work with. They bring so much positive energy and fun to every photo shoot- truly a joy to work with :) This team has the ability to capture the spirit and emotion of the moment and transfer it into every picture. Their unique eye and attention to detail result in simply stunning photographs- actual works of art! We have received so many compliments on all of the photos Matt and Liz have taken, from the engagement pics and bridal portraits, and now the wedding! We can't wait to share them all with our family and friends. If you are looking for a photographer who will be able to capture all of the excitement and emotion of your special day and transfer it into beautiful photos, make sure to hire Matt Foster!

    Look no further- Matt and Liz are the best!

    Matt and Liz did a FANTASTIC job photographing our wedding. Literally could not have been better.

    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.

    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!!!!

    The absolute best!

    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!

    Hire Matt and Liz!

    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!

    Exceptional in every way!

    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!

    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.
