Exceptional!

When I found Matt and Krista on WeddingWire, I knew I hit the jackpot! They were affordable and had quality work! They made us feel very comfortable during our engagement session and our wedding. We were their first wedding of summer 2020 due to Covid19 pandemic. They worked very well to meet all of our needs. They are creative and very easy to work with. They have a complimentary engagement session which most photographers do not offer, two photographers, and you tell them when to arrive and when to leave (they were the only photographers we found who do this). Everyone at our wedding raved about the beautiful pictures that were taken. A lot of guests after viewing the pictures stated, "I would hire them for my wedding." Our pictures showed up in a custom box with our picture on it and about 30 prints with a custom USB drive...super cute and unexpected! Pick Fornear Photo for your wedding day, you will not regret it!

Best of the best!

We did our research looking for our wedding photographer and when we connected with Matt and Krista, we knew right away that we wanted them to photograph our wedding. Matt and Krista were amazing to work with right from the start. They are laid-back, personable, and easy to work with. Never, did I have to wait longer than a few hours for a response to my questions. Matt and Krista took into consideration all of our wants and were very accommodating to our requests. The quality of their photographs is outstanding as not only do they know how to capture the moment, but also the beautiful scenery around you-- which was important to us, having an outdoor wedding. Fornear Photo will not disappoint, Matt and Krista are the best!

Matt and Krista are The Best!

I spent two to three months researching photographers for our wedding. Photos were my top priority after the actual marriage so we wanted someone who would fit our style and Matt and Krista were exactly what we wanted. Their photos are so colorful and vibrant and their use of lighting is wonderful. They always made our sessions fun and light hearted. They are professional, but very fun to work with and had great ideas for different shots. They made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera and accepted all our geeky parts to our wedding rather than judging us for them. During the ceremony and reception they blended in so well that we never really noticed when they were taking pictures and they got some amazing shots that way. Our friends and family loved having them at the wedding too which made the photo shoots way more fun! They were always on time and helped keep us on track for our day. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about Fornear Photo! They helped make our day perfect and now we will have wonderful pictures to remember our perfect day!

Even better than we could have imagined!

Matt and Krista are AMAZING! They are funny and flexible and really helped us relax during both our engagement shoot and on our wedding day! The couple is experienced and knows exactly what they're doing! We really love that they work together the entire time, but still bring different styles and ideas in to their work. We were so satisfied with their help and with the pictures we received!! We love the amount of pictures they took on our big day and how flexible they are with time- arriving when we asked, leaving after we have all agreed that they've got enough pictures, and adapting to changes last minute changes in our schedule!

We cannot wait to book anniversary or family shots with them in the future!

Excellent photography team!

I cannot say enough about the experience we had with Matt and Krista! We did the Engagement/Wedding package with them, and were impressed by the beginning with their communication. Typically we received responses within an hour or two, not "days" which we experienced with other vendors. Both were incredibly friendly, and our pre-wedding consultation ended up being 90 minutes of just talking, which I think truly helped them get to know us and in turn made us feel very comfortable around them. At one point on the wedding night, I found myself talking with Matt about something completely non-wedding or non-photo related. They really felt like an extension of our guests at the wedding. OH, and I haven't even touched on the quality of shots they take. Matt has an incredibly creative mind, and Krista will step in with other ideas of shot which truly makes them a great team. Take a look at any of their portfolio to see the amazing things they can do with lighting. We couldn't have been happier with our choice of photographers!

Their expertise and creativity shone through!

Working with Matt and Krista was such a satisfying experience! Even for someone like me who doesn't love being photographed, they made the entire process fun and exciting. They reflected both our identities and their style in the pictures, and we felt very comfortable with them on our engagement shoot and during our wedding day. Their expertise and creativity shone through in the variety and quality of shots we got. We also had their open photo booth which was a blast!

Fornear at The Mill

Matt and Krista were amazing! So comfortable to be around, flexible, and accommodating. Very professional. Got the perfect combination of sentimental/sweet pictures and fun/personality capturing candids. We are 100% happy with our choice and the results.

Exceeded Lofty Expectations

It’s hard to put into words how perfect our wedding photographers were for us. Finding Fornear Photography was the biggest relief and excitement from what turned out to be the best day of our lives. We wanted to find a result that felt genuine and sincere. We wanted professional photos without an ego. We wanted someone that could capture the day we intended without forcing the situation. From the moment we met Matt and Krista we knew they were going to be different. We sat down at a local coffee shop and set to challenging them to decide if they were for us. At almost every turn things just fit. When pushed on a subject there was real contemplation and an honest answer. Krista and Matt compliment each other personally and professionally perfectly. Krista is extremely personable and friendly. Matt is a bit more stereotypically “the photographer”. Matt initially came across as shy but we soon realized it was quiet confidence evenly mixed with the fact that he was actually listening rather than boasting about his business. He was there to sell himself and the product that he and his wife so lovingly produce, yet we were the factor that truly mattered. Matt and Krista delivered exactly what they told us they would. They were on time and they were plugged in and present for every moment of the day. Every part of our wedding photographers exceeded our expectations. Words could never describe a wedding day but that’s OK, our wedding photos speak for themselves.

Truly, Thank you Matt and Krista.

BEST photographers!

Matt and Krista were amazing! Not only did they travel for our actual wedding (Chicagoland area), they made an additional trip for an engagement shoot! We are not super photogenic, but they made us feel so comfortable being in front of the camera. They are very creative and I love all of the photos! I received both the engagement photos and the wedding photos quickly. They were super flexible and got some great candid shots! Super quick to respond to all of my questions and professional. Highly recommended!!!! You will not be disappointed! Thank you, Matt and Krista!

Amazing photographers!

Matt and Krista are phenomenal photographers! They photographed our daughters wedding in September in St. Germain and the pictures are amazing. They have a wonderful flair for capturing unique and unexpected moments and couldn't be easier to work with. I can't say enough how beautiful and creative their work is. Thank you Matt and Krista!

Seriously, just hire them

It's hard to even put into words how amazing Matt and Krista are to work with. They were able to truly capture who my husband and I are together. Our engagement photos included many candid moments that we didn't realize we're being photographed, but was exactly what we were looking for without even knowing. Our wedding was phenomenal there are no words to describe the moments they were able to capture. They are both amazing human beings with amazing personalities. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for wedding photos, Family Photos, or really any type of professional photos!

Our Amazing Experience with Fornear Photo!

My husband and I worked with Fornear Photo for our wedding in southwestern Wisconsin in August 2018. Fornear Photo did an amazing job, and we couldn’t be happier with the photos from our big day! They did a great job of making us feel important during the wedding planning discussions and at ease on our wedding day. Matt and Krista worked great as a team, capturing multiple perspectives of our first look, wedding party and ceremony. We loved their ability to make the local park, church and reception venue look amazing with their use of lighting and perspective. We also loved the bright vibrant colors they were able to capture.

Matt and Krista not only traveled to southwest Wisconsin for our wedding, but they also did an engagement shoot in the area as well. The engagement shoot took place on a close family friend’s farm, so the fact that they were able to come to us to capture the photos in that special location was very meaningful. The engagement photo session occurred in the winter, and Matt and Krista were able to capture some very creative photos of us with the winter landscape and snow storm that day.

After our engagement shoot, we received our edited photos for digital download, rather than making us order a set of prints. Following our wedding we received a flash drive with all our photos, which again allowed us to choose our own pictures for printing. For both the engagement shoot and wedding photos, some sneak peek photographs were uploaded to the Fornear Photo Facebook site, allowing us and our friends and family to enjoy some right away. Leading up to the wedding Matt was very responsive to our emails, sent a guide ahead of time to help us think about must-have photos, and arranged a phone call the week of the wedding to make sure we were on the same page.

We have received lots of compliments on our photos and we are extremely happy with the photos and service we received from Matt and Krista. We would gladly recommend them to anyone.

Priceless!

We had the most amazing experience working with Matt and Krista! We loved getting to know them during our engagement shoot last year and even more so during our wedding and leading up to it. We just received our final wedding package and not only was it so professionally delivered but the photos are incredible. I cannot believe how many different angles of each moment they got. Definitely a perk to have 2 photographers! We look forward to maintaining our friendship when we take trips up north. Thank you so much Matt and Krista for creating memories we will cherish forever!!

Matt and Krista were professional and personable. They were easy to communicate with, accommodating, and client-focused. They are artistic and creative with the lighting, poses, and use of the natural environment. We are very pleased with our photos and the whole photography experience! We’ve heard many compliments with our photos and we can’t thank them enough! We’ll cherish those memories for the rest of our lives!

I am a horrible person for not writing a review for them earlier! But, alas, life gets in the way, and we are few days from our 1st anniversary. Matt and Krista were amazing! They were great from consult to getting our photos, and extremely flexible to our needs. We found them on OffBeat Bride, and I immediately knew they would be the right people to capture our non-traditional wedding. Our photos came out beautifully and they captured every moment we asked for. I can only hope to need photography another day so that I can call them again!

This review is from the Mother of the Groom perspective.
First and foremost, Fornear Photography did excellent work. The photos are absolutely amazing. In spite of a rainy wedding day, they were able to capture the event beautifully! I marvel at how they were able to capture so many facial expressions perfectly. I look at the photos and relive the day.
Secondly, they were extremely pleasant and easy to work with. They made everyone feel like they were the focal point. They were patient and flexible with last minute changes due to the weather. They were even able to get some spectacular pictures that included a very excited black lab.
Thirdly, the husband wife team work so well together to get the perfect photos. I'm thinking in particular of the "first look" photos. There were phenomenal photos from two different vantage points. During the reception, they were all over working to include as much of the celebration as possible.
I would highly recommend Fornear Photography for your wedding photographers.

Matt and Krista are the best! My husband and I just received our wedding package from Fornear and we absolutely love it. There are more pictures than I thought there would be and we have so many favorites. It is so fun to experience the entire day from start to finish all over again! Matt and Krista were easy to work with from the get-go and answered every question I had right away. They are easy going, down-to-earth people and I never felt rushed or treated like "just another client". They made us feel so special during the engagement and wedding shoot and eased any awkwardness that my husband and I felt. I can't thank them enough for all the hours they've put in to helping our special moments (engagement and wedding) last forever in such sweet photos.

Fornear Photo was recommended to us by a friend of a friend. I went online and checked out their work and was immediately impressed! Matt and Krista were very quick to respond to any email I sent throughout the whole process of planning. Besides the amazing photos I saw online, I loved that they included an engagement photo shoot in their price to be able to get to known us as a couple before hand. Another huge reason on hiring Fornear Photo was not having a time limit on our wedding day. I remember them telling us "we will be there as early as you need and stay as late as you want and won't leave until you think we've taken enough photos of your day". They did just that!
Matt and Krista are AMAZING! We couldn't be more happy with our choice to have them as our wedding photographers! They are both extremely nice, personable and very professional. We have been having so many friends and family members commenting on our photos from Fornear and saying that some of them look like they should be in a magazine! They do amazing work! I highly recommend Fornear Photo to anyone and everyone!! Thanks again, Matt and Krista! You guys are THE BEST! -Brie and Corey

We LOVED working with Matt and Krista. I can't imagine a better team to capture our favorite day. They were awesome at communicating throughout our planning process, they took amazing engagement pictures for us, then made our wedding day everything we wanted and more. Our weekend didn't quite turn out as planned.... We were rained out of pretty much every plan we made and our whole schedule was pushed back due to an unforeseen event. Matt and Krista didn't skip a beat. They went with the flow all day, kept me calm (which was probably quite a task at times) and took beautiful, amazing pictures. We chose them because we wanted the look they created, the vibrant, beautiful colors they are able to capture. They fit our personalities more than any other photographer I can imagine. I hope to use them again and again in the future for family pictures and whatever other photographer needs we may have!! They are the best!

Amazing! Krista and Matt are absolutely amazing to work with. They spend the time to talk to you before your wedding and an engagement photo shoot is a part of their package to allow them to get to know you. Then, they spent the time talking to us again before our wedding to ensure they knew what shots were important to us to make sure everything that was special was captured. They are so amazing and fun to work with too! My husband and I are not artistic people or people who are used to getting their pictures taken and they made us feel so comfortable. Not only that, the pictures are absolutely stunning and I can't wait to get the rest of my wedding photos. Another great thing is that they spend as much time as needed during the wedding to make sure that all our special moments were captured.
We also got the photo booth, which I would also recommend. Everyone at our wedding had so much fun and there were multiple trips to the photo booth, with keepsake photos.
Again, I can't say enough good things about Fornear photo and would absolutely recommend them!

Getting to know Matt and Krista professionally and personally was one of the real highlights of our wedding experience. Their attention to detail and willingness to provide exactly what we wanted made every shoot easy and fun. When we weren't sure of what we wanted in a particular instance, they chimed in with solid advice. We absolutely love the photos, and we'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional quality and an engaging, creative team to help you. Thanks Matt and Krista!

Matt and Krista are so great to work with! First off, they are really good at what they do and take awesome photos! Second, they are very easy to correspond with-I didn't have to wait very long to hear a response when I had a question or anything, and they kept us updated as to when our photos would be done. Great value as you get engagement photos included in the price-I highly recommend doing them as it gets you used to someone photographing you and your significant other. They were very professional and laid-back: willing to try any shots you had a suggestion about! I highly recommend working with them!

Matt was always quick to respond to my emails/texts and their flexibility was so relieving. As a bride from out of town, they worked so well with me to plan the perfect time and place to shoot our engagement pictures. After our engagement shoot, I was even more satisfied with my decision to work with Matt and Krista. They are an amazing team and I highly recommend them to everyone!

Matt and Krista did an amazing job taking our engagement and wedding photos. They are both laid back and easy going, making us feel comfortable being photographed. We were blown away by their ability to capture our emotions in the photos. We highly recommend them.

For our engagement photos, Matt and Krista traveled to the Twin Cities so that we could be photographed where we first met. We spent a few hours taking photos and getting to know each other. Afterwords, they sent us 100+ edited photos. Rather than making us order a set package of photo prints, we were given a CD so we could print what we wanted.

Leading up to the wedding Matt was very responsive to my emails, sent a guide ahead of time to help me think about must-have photos, and arranged a week-of phone call to make sure we were on the same page.
We opted for their all-day wedding package, which meant they traveled to Madison, WI to be with us from 9:30 am when I was getting my hair done to 10 pm. Throughout the day they managed to capture the little moments while still leaving space for us to interact naturally with our friends, family, and guests.

We've received lots of complements on our sneak-peek wedding photos (which they post a few days after the wedding) and can't wait to get the reset.

I highly recommend Fornear Photo! Matt & Krista went out of their way for me on Day 1. Literally, they drove 45 minutes out of their way to meet with me before I booked with them. There was also no pressure to do book packages that I didn't want and I was able to get exactly the right package for our wedding. On the day of our wedding, Matt & Krista showed up on time, were dressed appropriately, were lovely to myself, my husband, our families, and all of our guests. My husband is not that comfortable in front of the camera and Matt was great at making sure he was relaxed, not overwhelmed. Most importantly, Matt cared about making sure that we got the photos that WE wanted, not what he THOUGHT we wanted. Oddly, this seems to be pretty rare among photographers. Our photos arrived yesterday with a USB with about 600 edited photos with 10 or so complimentary prints in a beautiful wooden box. The photos look wonderful and we are very pleased. Since you get two shooters, you can get a couple of different angles of the same moment. Unfortunately, not all vendors we booked for our wedding were five star vendors, so having Matt & Krista on board was such a relief. They do their jobs well, do not cause any stress, and were wonderful to work with.

We had a great time with Matt and Krista on our wedding! It helped that we did our engagement shoot with them, so seeing them on the day of the wedding was relaxing because we already knew them. They did a great job keeping our wedding party organized and worked quickly, but never made us feel rushed. They worked to get special shots and were energetic the entire day.
We love having an online album to share with family and friends so they can view pictures whenever they want. The package that the pictures were delivered in will be a great keepsake and totally worth it!
Thank you, Matt and Krista! We had a great time at our wedding and your pictures truly captured the day and who we are as a couple. We will be recommending you in the future to anybody who asks!

Matt and Krista were wonderful to work with. Their package was inclusive and had no time limit, which was perfect for us because we had a four hour gap between the ceremony and reception. It also included an engagement shoot, where we got to know them on a more personal level. It was well worth it, as I feel the time we spent during our engagement shoot made us more confident with Matt and Krista on our wedding day. Matt and Krista documented every important part of our day. They were professional , courteous, prompt, and just a delight overall. They responded promptly to all of our emails and they also worked very hard to get all of the shots we requested. We really enjoyed getting to know them throughout the process and we were so happy with our engagement and wedding photos. Our wedding photos were delivered in a beautiful package. I truly am impressed by them and I hope to work with them in the future.

I want to say not only did we love our photos, we made new friends too! Matt and Krista are so talented and fun to be around. Our wedding was spectacular and they captured every moment without having to pull myself and the groom away from our guests, dancing, or dinner.

The photos are so spectacular, my friends and family (who will be getting married soon) wondered if they travel for weddings, and they do!!! My husband and I highly recommend them to everyone! They are great at getting the kids smiling too! I'm not a person of many words, my experience was amazing and if you have them as your photographers, I'm sure your will be too!

Matt and Krista did an outstanding job shooting our wedding. The photos turned out great, and the overall experience in working with them was wonderful. They were professional and truly worked the entire event. They hit on everything in our wish list, and then some. There was a non-stop flash of pictures being taken. In fact, we would be hard pressed to find 15 minutes during our entire day where they were not available to take pictures and capture memories. On top of that the turn around on delivering our photographs was fast. It took only a few short months from our wedding day to when our final pictures arrived. If you place a high importance on pictures, we highly recommend Fornear Photo. We would not hesitate for a moment to hire them again!

Wedding (and engagement) photography through Matt and Krista of Fornear Photo is an incredible value, and makes one part of the hectic process of wedding planning a breeze. Matt and Krista were with us for the entire day, well over 8 hours, with no complaints, and they provided hundreds of quality pictures to help us relive our wedding day. We can't thank them enough!

Fornear Photo provided the best service we could have asked for. Right from the start Matt and Krista were very responsive to meeting with us for our engagement shoot. We live in the Twin Cities and they are from Eagle River, so we met in between. We also have 3 dogs and they made the photo shoot work with them too! The wedding photos are unique and beautifully shot. Matt and Krista really took the time to know what shots we were looking for on our wedding day. They made them all happen! Thank you Matt and Krista!

Matt and Krista were both excellent! Friendly, professional, easy going. And the pictures we received were gorgeous!

We don't live near Matt and Krista (we live in Northwest Indiana) but they still traveled down to meet with us and do an engagement shoot well before the wedding. That really helped my wife and me see how dedicated they can be to making their customers happy. Of all the vendors we worked with, they stood out as the most interested in our special day.

Their instructions for helping us help them in knowing what kind of photos to take were concise and clear and that really put us both at ease as the day approached. We never once worried that we wouldn't be getting exactly what we wanted. And even after the wedding, they've been so forthcoming with answering any questions we had about our prints.

We were very happy with Fornear Photo throughout the entire experience.

Matt and Krista went above and beyond to make our special day memorable. They went out of their way to be accommodating to us, since we lived far away. They even traveled 5 hours to take our engagement photos in the location we wanted! Fornear Photo took the time to get to know my husband and I prior to the wedding day in order for everyone to feel more comfortable. Their photography also looks so natural, which I love! Thank you Fornear photo for capturing our wedding day and making it a day we will never forget. I would highly recommend Fornear photo to anyone!

Fornear Photo was wonderful to work with. Matt and Krista have a lot of awesome ideas to make the special day one to remember. They were there from the time the my wife started getting her hair done all the way until the last person was on the dance floor. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. After getting the photos from the engagement session and also the wedding I could not be happier. We will definitely recommend Fornear to every person we know getting married.

Fornear Photo was recommended to us from another couple that we are friends with and we are very happy that we chose Fornear Photo! Working with Matt & Krista was a dream! They listened to everything we wanted in our photos and helped capture all of our special moments. We loved working with Matt & Krista; they were both very creative and made taking pictures a dream. They were both responsive to what we were looking for and helped us answer any questions that we were having. The photo booth was a great touch and all our guests were raving about the photo booth. Our pictures turned our beautifully and I am so happy I chose these two to photograph our wedding. I would highly recommend them to any couple planning a wedding.

Matt and Krista are the best! They put together a photo package that has amazing value. No hidden costs or limits on number of photos, just an unlimited package with a free engagement shoot for a shockingly low price. Despite the great value, they take amazing photos! I've only seen a few of the wedding photos so far, but the engagement photos were fantastic and our friends and family raved about them. I'm so excited to see the rest of the wedding shots! Matt and Krista are a joy to work with. They have great ideas for photos and take your suggestions and photo wish lists very seriously. Finally, the Fornears are just enjoyable to be around. I've read in wedding magazines that you should like your wedding photographers since you will be spending your big day with them, which is why you should hire Fornear photo! We had so much fun at our engagement shoot that I invited them to the rehearsal dinner just to hang out with us. You will not regret hiring this vendor for your special day.

Matt & Krista are wonderful to work with. It was 90 degrees on our wedding day and we still have the most beautiful pictures! They truly care about capturing all of the special moments of your wedding. They give a lot of direction while photographing, which I was glad of, because I've recently been in weddings where the photographers weren't helping to establish the shots. They are extremely organized, but were also able to improvise unique pictures at our wedding venue. All throughout, they were very polite and professional to us and all guests, even when I was admittedly a little grumpy because of how hot it was! Everything promised on their site and in our contract was delivered, and we even got our pictures back earlier than I thought we would. At the end of the day, we have all of our wedding memories beautifully documented and by two of the nicest ,most genuine people we've met. I also have to say that I did a lot of research and price comparisons, and for what Matt and Krista offer, their prices are a steal! We will definitely be calling them to document future life events as well!

Matt and Krista were wonderful to work with! They went out of their way to visit our cabin to take engagement pictures. They were very organized, contacting the church and reception hall ahead of time so they could plan the wedding day accordingly. They were flexible and creative, taking into account the shots that we wanted. They were fun to work with and we enjoyed having them around. We love our pictures, they are AMAZING :)

Krista and Matt are two of the most talented, professional and fun photographers (and people) I have the pleasure of knowing. Fornear Photo captured all the important moments and made looking back at our wedding even more special. They were also excellent at coordinating with us and always had great ideas for some really cool pictures.
If you're looking for classy, fun and talented photographers Fornear Photo is the real deal. 10/10, would highly recommend!

We did an extended family shoot at a special event with Fornear Photo. Four families all with different ideas of how and where we should shoot! Matt did a terrific job and our pic's look great. I coordinated with him from over a thousand miles away and yet it couldn't have been more smooth. Quick service, good value. Priceless pictures. We even had one child that was less than cooperative but Matt was very patient and turned some of those "unhappy" pictures into some pretty funny memories. Nice work with seven children under age 9 and some high maintenance moms! I would highly recommend Fornear photo for more than weddings! BTW- one of his pictures even ended up being used by a major newspaper! Thank you Matt!

They're communication was so nice and quick. I couldn't have asked for faster responses, which made it so nice! They're photos were so great, classic, and artistic. We asked for a lot of candid pictures, and I barely noticed they were there during our day. They were very flexible with scheduling engagement photos and during the wedding day. I would definitely recommend them to anyone! Thanks Matt and Krista!

Choosing Fornear Photo was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Matt and Krista made sure to get to know us and we knew from the first meeting that they understood what we wanted. Even though we were living across the country from our event site, they kept in contact with us and stayed flexible enough to work with us when we were available. During the wedding they were so fun to have around! They made sure to get all the photos we wanted as well as some great unexpected ones. The full wedding package is such a good value with a free engagement shoot and two photographers. Our photos look fantastic and I have so many favorites!

If you are looking for photographers that are fun, talented, professional, with absolutely reasonable prices, then look no further!

I spend a lot of energy looking for photographers, because I hate having my picture taken. So photography was a major point of anxiety for me. However, once I met Matt and Krista, I knew that I didn't have anything to worry about anymore. They were laid back, fun, and great at working with us. They were super flexible, traveling to the Chicago area twice (once for an initial meeting, and once again to do an engagement shoot) then to Madison, WI where our wedding was. I highly recommend doing the package with the engagement shoot because it gave us time to get to know one another which really put me at ease on my wedding day. They also got some really fabulous pictures, and I was surprised to find I had fun! I'd never had fun having my picture taken in my life before that day. Seriously. It was a torture to be endured for the sake of my mother, usually.

What I love about how Matt and Krista take pictures is that not only do they do a wonderful job at capturing how everything looked (not always an easy task for a wedding, I imagine) but they also captured how everything felt. When I look at our wedding pictures, I feel the same kind of joy as I felt when my husband and I got married. I also loved how they get plenty of great pictures of my groom and I, the wedding party, and our families, but they also caught sweet little moments of our guests enjoying themselves, and being with their spouses, children, and friends.

I can't recommend Fornear Photo enough. Finding them was one of the best things that happened during my wedding planning process, and I feel so lucky. I'm so pleased with and grateful for all the work they did for us.

Matt and Krista are the most phenomenal people you will ever meet! They are super laid back and most importantly, enjoy what they do!! The packages and pricing they offer do not even compare to the services rendered. They went above and beyond our expectations to capture every part of our special day. Take advantage of the engagement shoot. It gave us time to get to know each other and also allowed us time to get comfortable being photographed by them. Listen to their suggestions and your photos will be amazing. They are the professionals and know exactly what looks good! I am beyond pleased with our photos.

We had a wonderful time getting to know the Fornears leading up to our wedding day. I wasn't necessarily planning to do an engagement photo session, but we did it since it was included. This gave us all a chance to get more comfortable working together, so I recommend taking advantage of that offer.
On our wedding day, Matt and Krista started early and stayed late to capture the day. Our pictures are beautiful and we've received lots of compliments on them.
If you are a laid-back, fun-loving type of couple, you will love the Fornears.

Matt and Krista were AMAZING to work with!! They captured us perfectly - our personalities and the feel of the day really came through in the photos. Their creative, positive energies shown through in their work and style, and made for beautifully captured moments. They say it's important to like not only your photographers' work but as people because you'll be spending so much of the day with them and we definitely found that in Matt and Krista! We consider them friends and are so grateful they were a part of our day - we would have invited them to our wedding if they weren't out photographers! We cannot say enough good things about them - they are a joy and we are so grateful to have worked with them!

We spent A LOT of time searching for the right photographers for our wedding, so we are very happy to have found Fornear Photo. Matt & Krista shot both our engagement and wedding photos. They are very fun, down-to-earth people which made the whole experience quite easy and enjoyable for us. They had no problem traveling for both shoots and made sure to capture all of our "must-have" photos. Furthermore, the service packages they offer are an unbelievable value. We could not be more thrilled with how our photos turned out!

They've also been so great to us with post-wedding - sending us photos for our thank you cards even before the CD was ready. We're thrilled to have found these two!! We'd hire them again in a heartbeat.

We loved working with Fornear photo. Matt and Krista got every shot we asked them for. I pinned ideas that I wanted for my pictures and sent them to Krista. They made sure to get all of these shots throughout the day. We loved that there were two photographers so that nothing was missed. We also loved how active they were on social media with sharing our photos. This made us feel very special! We utilized their photo booth option and got some great shots of the guests! Their work is beautiful and they are very professional and responsive to all questions.

Matt & Krista are fantastic! My husband and I are not huge fans of getting our pictures taken but wanted to make sure we had memories of our special day. Matt & Krista's laidback demeanor made having our pictures taken all day long a much better experience than we could have ever hoped for! They were also extremely accommodating given how far they live from where our wedding took place and they really cared about how we felt during both our engagement session and the day of the wedding. If you want professional photographers who are fun and genuinely care about you, Matt & Krista are the ones to pick!

If we could give them more than 5 stars we would!
Matt and Krista were incredible!
We did the all day package which included the free engagement shoot...what a great value and even better way to get to know them before our wedding day!
Matt and Krista were very receptive to our ideas and came up with a bunch of creative shot ideas that fit me and my husband perfectly!
They were always available to answer questions and made us feel like we were the only wedding that mattered!
They stayed at the reception until they had gotten all of the shots they needed instead of working with a strict ending time frame like most other photographers we looked at. Made us feel so at ease that they wouldn't miss a shot!
The shots we have seen so far are breathtaking! We are anxiously awaiting the rest!
We can't say enough good things about Fornear Photo!!
Thanks Matt and Krista!

The pictures from the wedding are great!!! We love the fact that they were really with us all day and got so many great shots, posed and candid. The value of the package was the best deal we found (engagement shoot, wedding day and rights to the pictures), they even went to Saint Louis with us to do our engagement photos and catch a baseball game (we're Cardinals fans and they are Cubs fans!) it was wonderful to have photographers who care about what you want and care about you!

Krista and Matt are an extremely cooperative and creative pair of photographers. As the bride I was of course running late getting ready and we were in danger of loosing the outdoor light. Krista and Matt were still able to take some amazing outdoor shots! Not to even mention all the lovely photos at the church and reception. They did an amazing job! Thank you Matt and Krista! Looking back at the photos is a JOY! Most of my favorite shots I even have from two different perspectives thanks to their teamwork. Look no further for a wedding photographer – you have found them.
When they say they are willing to travel they are not kidding. They came to central Illinois in January for my winter wedding even though there was an awful blizzard the following day.

Matt and Krista were amazing! They are polite, professional, creative, fun, patient, laid back and above all - amazing photographers and people. We met Matt and Krista because they were the photographers for a friend's wedding that I was in. Once I saw how wonderful they were, I immediately booked them when we got engaged. Not only did they take our engagement photos, but they were available on our wedding day - ALL DAY! We got all our pictures back via disc and are able to view the entire album online (which is great for our out-of-state family). They really helped make the day less stressful for us and made sure that our smiles were remaining genuine after taking a few hundred pics (they are very funny :)) I do not have any regrets with Fornear Photo and would recommend them to any one, and for any event.

My husband and I want to take the opportunity to recommend Fornear Photo for your professional photography needs. After checking out a variety of photos on the Fornear Photo website, we were certain we wanted to entrust them to capture our precious wedding day memories. Matt and Krista were fantastic from day one. They are friendly, creative, professional, and flexible.

Prior to the wedding day, they offered to do an engagement shoot for us. It was extremely important to Matt and Krista to really get to know us, our style, and our preferences before the wedding. The engagement shoot was really fun and outdoorsy. We were absolutely thrilled with the final product!

As the wedding day drew near, Matt worked very closely with us to nail down all the little details, which really put us at ease. Matt and Krista didn't just photograph our wedding, they captured all the special moments, emotions, and important details of our day...a gorgeous and artistic visual display of our memories. All of this while being very discreet and professional. We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos. They are breathtaking!

We got married in Eagle River, WI despite living on the other side of the country. The Fornear's were great about working with us despite not being about to be in the same place at the same time. They gave us some great advice to ensure we had great pictures. I loved that they made themselves known on the big day (to get the important pictures) while also standing back to allow us to enjoy our day. Definitely recommend them!
