FANTASTIC, FANTASTIC, FANTASTIC! That is all that needs to be said about Matthew Hogan Photography, and I haven't even seen my finished pictures yet. ;0) I found this vendor from the vendor list here on Wedding Wire. I looked at his site, and loved his work. I wanted something edgier, and less traditional. He does whatever you like, so no worries for those who want more traditional. He is located in Tyler, TX but is willing to travel. He and his assitant worked a holiday weekend, and came all the way out to West Texas to take our pictures. The few pictures I saw on the camera while he was taking them were AMAZING. Can't wait to see the final product. I really hate giving a review prior to getting a final product, but Wedding Wire was already hitting me up within one week to provide a review.

The very first wods that come to my mind when I think about Matt and Daniel’s photography are creative, energetic, good listener, cooperative, flexible and I can keep on going…lol.
We went through a lot of photographer’s portfolios before we decided to sign a contract with Matt and although there are some great wedding photographers out there…most of the portfolios that we saw seemed kind of generic and predictable. As soon as we saw Matt’s portfolio it caught our eye mainly because of their creativity. Apart from having a few generic “wedding” pictures we mostly wanted our wedding to be covered in a more photojournalistic and more creative fashion. Matt’s portfolio seemed to hit all the things that we wanted to see in our wedding album.
As we were planning our wedding from out of state we were really anxious about planning. Thankfully upon getting in touch with Matt and Daniel one of our worries was soon gone as just from talking with them on phone it was evident that not only were the happy and excited to do our wedding but they understood our situation and tried to make it as easy on us as possible. They are really accommodating and flexible in every manner possible.
On the day of wedding both Matt and Daniel arrived before time and started documenting the pre wedding preparations. Before meeting us at the venue on wedding day they had also visited nearby places and our wedding location thoroughly to look for different places where they visualized the compositions of pictures they would like to take. This saved a lot of time when it was time to take those pictures.
All of my friends and family have now seem the wedding pictures now and the most common compliment that we get about them is that they wish they would have got their wedding covered by Matt.
One of my friends was so impressed by their photography that when he was getting married in Sep 2010 in Kansas city we invited Matt to cover their wedding as well and their wedding pictures are amazing as well.
All in all I would strongly recommend Matt and Daniel for any event and not just weddings.

We loved the photos Matthew Hogan photography took on our wedding day. We cherish these beautiful wedding moments and the pictures till this date and forever. Thank you for the great service.
