Absolute Perfection

The very first vendor that I found for my wife and I's wedding was Matthew David Studio. I requested a phone call with them, and immediately got a response from Christina. We chatted on the phone for probably an hour, and I immediately knew that she is it!!! Christina explained to me the process, but also asked me questions about how my now wife and I met, and wanted to know all about our love story. She asked how planning was going (which was literally nonexistent at the time), and gave me a list of vendors she loves based off of the vibe we want for our wedding. She helped me to jumpstart our wedding planning!
After we signed a contract, we flew to Palm Springs for our engagement photos, which actually turned out to be my secret proposal to my wife (she proposed first). Christina helped me sneakily plan it, and took some great shots of us. We even went out for drinks after. She offered to do full blown engagement photos later in the year when it wasn't so hot in Palm Springs anymore, which worked out perfectly. So when we flew down to Palm Springs in November, we continued to have a blast with her and she helped us to feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera. She asks personal questions and remembers so much about our previous conversations, which is so meaningful. The results of the engagement shoot absolutely blew me away, and I couldn't believe that was us in the photos. She uses many different types of cameras, including film, and she knows what she's doing. She is a true artist and the camera is her medium. Her photographs are stunning. She doesn't slap a filter on her photos like some other photographers do. She is the REAL DEAL. On the day of the wedding, I had the pleasure of meeting her husband Matthew. They are a dynamic duo and work so well together. I honestly could not wait to see Christina when she arrived, to show her my dress and tell her how excited I was. They also filmed a super 8 video for us, and provided the photo booth (which was such a hit!!!). We got all the shots we needed that day and everything moved seamlessly. Christina helped calm my nerves down immensely and was a calming voice and presence when I needed it. I could honestly go on and on, but really what I need to tell whoever is reading this, is that by choosing Matthew David Studio as your wedding photographer, you are making the absolute best choice you can make. Thank you Christina and Matthew, we will never forget you!

Incredible photographer!

I can't recommend Matthew David Studio enough! Christina didi the most beautiful job capturing our wedding. Christina made us feel at ease throughout the whole process and you can tell how much care and heart she puts into her craft. The photos turned out so STUNNING! Countless friends and family all shared the photos looked like something out of Vogue magazine and were a perfect blend of artistic, classic, editorial, and "glowy". You won't regret booking Matthew David for your special day!

Pick her as your photographer!

We hired Christina way back in 2020, for what would become attempt number one at having our wedding. Long story short we had to cancel due to COVID and it would take us three years to finally celebrate. Christina stuck with us through it all and was just as excited as we were when attempt number two finally came together! We were initially drawn to the vintage/timeless aesthetic of her work and that she shoots on both film and digital. Her energy made both our wedding and engagement shoots feel incredibly relaxed and natural, she went above and beyond by giving general wedding recommendations when we asked and ultimately gave us exquisite high-quality photos that we love. We couldn’t be happier with our choice of a photographer to preserve our wedding memories and highly recommend her!
