    Truly exceptional experience

    Matt was absolutely amazing! He had a wonderfully-charming way of setting up shots, and was just a delight to work with. The photos were spectacular, and a lot of them! I can’t say enough good things about Matt: he was a major element in the success of the wedding.

    Matt was amazing!

    Matt was simply amazing!! He did our engagement pictures, my bridal pictures and our wedding pictures and I cannot say enough nice things about him! He is very professional, has a great eye and is very kind. He was able to accommodate anything we asked and did it without hesitation! His might be the fastest photographer that I have even seen with pictures edits as well. We got our entire wedding portfolio back 5 days after our wedding, which included over 350 edited pictures! My husband and I are an interracial couple so lighting and balance was a big deal for us, Matt was able to balance both of our complexions easy and our photos turned out better than we could expect! Thank you Matt for being amazing and making the memories of our day amazing for us!

    Matt Montalvo Photography's reply:

    Your wedding was such a blast! Thanks for trusting me to capture your special day. The wedding had over a 1000 edited photos. Hopefully you saw the full wedding gallery.

    Highly recommend!

    Our journey with Matt as our photographer for our engagement photos, bridals, and our wedding day was nothing short of magical. Matt's keen eye for detail and artistic approach brought each moment to life in a way that surpassed our expectations.

    What truly sets Matt apart is not just his talent but also his genuine and personable nature. He effortlessly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, turning what could have been nerve-wracking moments into joyful and relaxed memories.

    Matt's ability to adapt his style to suit the unique vibe of each occasion showcased his versatility as a photographer. From the intimate shots during our engagement photos to the grandeur of our wedding day, Matt's skillful photography tells a beautiful and cohesive story.

    We are beyond grateful for Matt's incredible work and the stunning memories he has gifted us. If you're looking for a photographer who not only captures moments but enhances them with artistry and warmth, Matt is the one! HIGHLY recommended!

    The BEST photographer.

    Matt is an incredible photographer. His ability to capture anything from detailed nuance to hilarious candids is unmatched. Every photo is stunning. Every. Single. One. Additionally, he's super easy to work with, prompt, professional, and will get your photos back to you extremely quickly. He has also worked with many vendors and at many venues, and knows the ins and outs of the wedding industry very well. I'd recommend him over and over again!

    Hiring Matt was one of the best decisions we made!

    Choosing Matt as our wedding photographer was the best decision for our big day! Matt was extremely easy to work with, captured great pics, and was super flexible on the day of the wedding. He is very easy going and has a personality that puts you at ease and not feel awkward. Matt got our pics back incredibly fast. We HIGHLY recommend Matt and would hire him again in a heartbeat.

    Best of the best in the austin area

    I originally met Matt when I was in another wedding years ago. He is fantastic. Words my friends and family used: personable, efficient, kind, approachable. I have a huge blended family and we made a plan on who goes where ahead of schedule during portraits which meant we got to join our guests sooner rather than later. you cannot get a better photographer!!

    My wedding day 4/16/22

    Matt was so amazing! I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of good photographers out there to choose from and was originally drawn to Matt because he was so highly reviewed/experienced and yet still affordable. He never felt pushy and from our first phone call I felt comfortable in hiring him. On my wedding day he showed up early and was ready to go right away! He was the calming presence that I needed as a nervous bride. He worked quickly to get all the shots in the busy schedule that I had and the photos turned out so perfect! I swear I stare at them multiple times each day and can’t wait to get them printed for my home. My friends and family loved them as well! I was also seriously impressed by how fast he was in delivering them. I was still on my honeymoon when I got my gallery! All in all, 10/10 and would absolutely work with Matt again someday. Thanks again Matt!!

    Matt Montalvo Photography's reply:

    I hope I get to work with you two again someday as well!! Thanks for the kind words! You guys were great to work with!

    AMAZING experience

    Matt's work is amazing! Picking the right venue and photographer were the most important for me (after picking the right person to marry haha). He gets every shot you want and even more you didn't know you wanted. His photos always come out amazing! He's also laid back and great to work with. We'll definitely be using him for any photo sessions in the future.

    Excellence, professional, 10/10

    He is a spectacular photographer. His edits are beautiful, and he is the most professional yet easy-going photographer a bride could ask for. I will hire him again for any occasion I might have in the future. He has a talent for capturing the important photos between friends, family, and candid moments. Matt spent the time to make sure I had fantastic pictures with the correct lighting, angles, and setting available. Even all of my friends and family have been complimenting on how attentive he was. I couldn’t ask for a better photographer.

    Incredible photos, dream to work with, and leaves you time to party!

    Matt has an insane amount of experience as a photographer, and it shows in our photos! He’s familiar with many Austin venues (if not all of them) and knows exactly when, where, and how to shoot to get the most beautiful photos!! He effortlessly instructed us to get into the right pose, and honestly, I don’t even know how he got some of our photos because it was that easy! Matt was also amazing at getting candid shots (and had really helpful tips for us about how to get the best candid shots) and was able to capture truly amazing moments. He doesn’t limit the number of photos he takes, and he takes pictures of everything he sees on top of the posed photos he already knows look good – going through the photogallery honestly felt like reliving our wedding day in all its best moments! Matt worked tirelessly on our wedding day, and if anyone (including guests) wanted him to take a picture, he would get it and keep going, even if he was taking a break! It’s clear Matt is passionate about photography and capturing all the moments of our special day. Lastly, Matt is insanely fast and efficient. Our ceremony photos are from every angle, and it feels like we had at least two photographers that day! It also meant we were actually able to spend a surprising amount of time on our wedding day talking to your guests, eating, drinking, and partying. Matt was an incredible photographer and worth every cent!!

    Fantastic to work with!

    We cannot say enough great things about working with Matt. He was extremely communicative, reliable, and easy to work with. Matt did both our engagement and wedding photos. We love the photos he took and appreciated both his guidance on locations/poses as well as his flexibility and "go with the flow" mentality. Highly highly recommend Matt as your wedding photographer!

    Absolutely incredible Photographer

    I can't say enough great things to express how amazing Matt is. He is so incredibly gifted! Every single picture he took turned out amazing and he didn't miss a single thing we could of wanted. He is very personable and so easy to work with. He was also extremely efficient with pictures allowing us to enjoy more time at our wedding while still capturing all of the moments and poses we could of wanted. He not only did an amazing job capturing us, but all of our family and guest as well. He got pictures of every single person there, and allowed us to truly relive each moment over and over through his incredible work. We could not be more satisfied with having Matt to capture our big day!

We would highly recommend Matt for engagement and wedding photography!

    Quality, all around!

    Matt is incredible! He takes pride in his work and it shows! He goes above and beyond to ensure every shot you want is taken and asks about shots you may not consider. Matt coordinates everyone efficiently and respectfully. All of our pictures are gorgeous and to top it all off he had them posted for friends and family to see in about a week! His commitment to ensuring you have quality photos of your special day are unmatched. If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, your child's wedding, or even a friend's wedding, I highly recommend reaching out to Matt

    No wedding too small!

    Nothing but great things to say about Matt! His work is nothing short of amazing. He was so kind to guide us on what to do, super helpful with posing tips, and wrangling family together. We had a short ceremony and a few additional pictures before and after and we were blown away with the stunning photos from our short time together. I highly recommend Matt for anyone needing photography services.

    Amazing Wedding Photographer!

    Matt is absolutely amazing! Out of all my wedding vendors he was the most responsive and provided a wonderful quality of service. Wedding photos were my top priority for my wedding, and Matt exceeded my expectations. He is efficient and professional in his work and took stunning photos. All of my wedding guests have been talking about how much they love my photos. I don't know how Matt does it all but he managed to capture every single moment and he did so beautifully. He has an eye for detail. I would recommend Matt to any bride looking for a photographer.

    *Bonus- I was a 2020 bride who had to reschedule and Matt was SO understanding and flexible. My rescheduled date was on his birthday and he still photographed my wedding. That's how dedicated, respectful, and kind Matt is. He has a true passion for photography and you can see it shine through his work.

    Great vendor to work with!!!

    Matt was absolutely amazing to work with! I am a planner and when my couple hired Matt, I knew they would be in good hands. He was responsive with emails, arrived EARLY and was everywhere he needed to be at all times. Basically a planner's dream vendor. Cannot say enough great things!
