Matt Bigelow Photography

Meet Your Photographer

Hi, I’m Matt! I’m your Midwest born-and-raised, taco devouring, travel junkie, dad-joke telling, fun sock wearing, photographic story telling photographer!

Weddings are my jam, and I wouldn’t trade my profession for the world.

I believe that the foundation of an amazing photography experience begins with the connection between a photographer and their subjects, so building comfortable, trusting and long-lasting relationships with my couples is my first and foremost priority.

By the time we’re through, we’ll have lauged together, cried together, and hopefully played some mean air guitar on your dance floor together. Let’s create something amazing!

My Approach

I believe every couple has their own exciting story to tell, and it’s my goal to share that story through your images!

My photographic style is a unique blend between the real, raw emotion of photojournalism, and the refined, creative edge of editoral and commerical style photography.

To do so, my approach to every session is to keep the mood fun, light-hearted and totally stress-free. This helps ensure natural, authentic interactions, allowing you to focus less on the camera, and more on your love.

When it comes to poses and creative direction, I’ll make sure to guide you every step of the way. All you’ll need to worry about is having an absolute blast -- I’ll take care of the rest!

Areas Covered

Destination weddings are a specialty of mine, but I also work largely in the Chicago and Northwest Indiana region. I absolutely love to travel, and have been contracted in places such as China, Tanzania, France, Cancun, Jamaica and all over the US.
