About

Fairmount Photography is a collaboration between photojournalists Matt Godfrey and Natalie Nigito. It started out with a simple concept in mind: every event is different and so should the photos that go along with it.
Our number one goal is to to create the photos that reflect your style and personality. To achieve that goal we limit the number of events we cover each year so that we can dedicate the attention needed to do every one right. We also work closely with each client before, during and after the event so that we can get get to know them better and give them time to get comfortable with us.
Let Fairmount Photography be the one to help you put your life into photos.

Matt and the team from Fairmount Photos are terrific! From the first time we met him, we could tell that Matt was professional yet easy going, organized, and knew his stuff! He was very easy to plan with and responsive to emails. We had a last minute change of plans in shooting location and Matt was able to find awesome settings in what looked like ordinary neighborhood to us! It was great. He and Theresa were so fun to hang with the day of the wedding. They wonderfully navigated the balance of taking plenty of pics while letting you also enjoy your wedding. Our photos came out amazing - a few people even commented that some of them look like they are straight out of a magazine! If you're looking for a photographer who takes amazing photos, who is professional yet easy-going, organized and flexible, easy to hang with on your wedding day, and at a reasonable price, look no further! We would book again in a heartbeat. Thanks Matt and Theresa!

Fairmount Photography is AMAZING. Not only do they produce stunning and artistic work, they are also easy and fun to work with on a special day. The team (we had two members, including the owner Matt G.) was fun and easy-going and captured the essence of our day! (Including the surprise downpour right as the ceremony was to start -- nothing like capturing the moment like a picture of the bride sprinting through sideways rain!) On what can be a hectic day, Matt added a layer of calm and humor -- joking with the family and being, overall, easy going. Some of our favorite photos were the ones the team was able to snag when we weren't even aware of photos being taken! The team is THAT stealthy and talented. We received our photos promptly and enjoy getting to look at them daily. Fairmount Photography produced wonderful images, made our day even MORE special and easy, and we can't wait to use them again in the future!

Matt and his team were amazing to work with! Even our guests commented about how effortlessly he navigated the family portraits and then got some of the most creative shots of us around the grounds. Fairmount Photography even set up a photo booth that made for some great memories.

Fairmount rocks! We had a flawless experience and highly recommend for a wedding photographer. Both photographers were open to all our ideas, super easy going, creative, and just really friendly and great to work with. Captured all the right moments and came up with a beautiful alternative when it started to rain and our outdoor photo shoot couldn't happen.

I highly recommend Fairmount Photography! We first met Matt about a year before our wedding - we were originally drawn to his calm demeanor and sense of organization. A year later, we loved working with Matt and his team on our wedding day! We barely noticed they were there for all our important moments, yet they got amazing shots. Matt was even able to organize our very large bridal party (10 bridesmaids, 9 groomsmen, 2 flower girls, parents, step-parents, grandparents, step-siblings) - which was not easy! We absolutely LOVE our pictures and have received many complements. We recommend Fairmount Photography highly and without reservation!

Fairmount Photography did an excellent job at our wedding. My husband and I were both very comfortable with the photographers and the photos came out beautifully. We asked them to focus on candid shots and they caught some great moments. The turn around time on the photos was impressive. They were ready by the time we got back from our honeymoon. Thank you Matt, Theresa and Brianna!! You did an excellent job and we couldn't be happier with the results.

I couldn't feel luckier that I chose these guys. They were professional, responsive, and quite honestly a whole lot of fun. By the time our wedding day came, I felt like we had some new friends that happened to just be behind the lens. The finished products from both our engagement shoot and our wedding were stunning! They're truly masters of their craft. They took direction of the photos we wanted prior to the wedding, and then made it happen! I really just can't rave enough about everything!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
