They forgot I was there. The photos didn’t.

Every review on this page is a real Google review from a couple I photographed — all 172 of them, newest first. Fifteen years, nearly a thousand weddings across Essex, Kent, Hampshire, Surrey, Cornwall and abroad, and the same sentence keeps coming back.

“At no point do you realise that he is there — I mean that in a nice way. He captures the day so well.”

Matt is an incredible photographer! We have not stopped recieving compliments on the amazing photos he captured on our special day. We really feel that he captured the day in the best way from start to finish. We're currently on our honeymoon and we're still looking through them now. Of course we wanted Matt for his own unique style, but we also felt he listened to anything specific we wanted captured. Thank you Matt for putting us so at ease, we're not people who are used to being in front of the camera but you made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. The pictures are incredible and we are so very grateful! Toby and Elizabeth

What can I say about Matt, well he is genuinely a nice guy, never met someone who can put you at ease from the start and then capture the most amazing photos!! We were blown away with what was delivered and can’t wait to have his work plastered across our walls!! He truly helped make our day that extra bit special!

Matt was amazing. His photos are beautiful and he really listened to what we wanted to be captured. We’re both very introverted but he made us laugh and comfortable all day. Genuinely couldn’t recommend a photographer more.

We had Matt be our photographer for our wedding in May and he was absolutely incredible! We had a zoom consultation to discuss what the day would entail and he kept in regular contact with us up until the day. Matt made us feel completely relaxed and eased on the day, he made sure everything ran so smoothly. Nothing felt rushed, it was all we could have asked! Matt was so organised and took the most incredible photos we will cherish forever. He even sent us 80+ photos on the night of the wedding which we were so grateful for! Thank you for being part of our day, we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

Matt recently captured our wedding day, and we couldn’t be happier that we made that choice, because he was genuinely one of the best parts of the day! From the first consultation to the final album, Matt was professional, calm, and made sure to prioritise capturing amazing photos and moments, without having to pull us away from enjoying the day for long periods of time. Matt quickly caught on to the vibe of the wedding, relaxed, light hearted and always up for a laugh - which he fitted perfectly into. He appreciated the ideas we had for pictures and made that happen, but also we were able to just trust him with everything in between and to capture amazing photos whilst being hardly noticeable and never in the way! Not that anyone likes to admit, we had a few mishaps on the day, and Matt was ready to find a solution every time and we really appreciated that. Matt was a recommended supplier at our wedding venue (Braxted Park), and he without a doubt deserves it. To top it all off, before we had even finished partying, we had already received 100 photos from Matt - safe to say, that us as newly weds (and after a fair few drinks) couldn’t help but show every single person who was still partying with us how good the photos were. We couldn’t recommend Matt enough and knowing we have photos that perfectly capture the whole day to look back on forever makes us want to do it all over again!! He was an incredible part of our special day.

Would just like to say a huge thank you to Matt for making our day so special. We absolutely love all of our photos. You have captured every special detail and from start to finish you have been professional. Communication was great and you made us feel so comfortable, making us laugh and giving us the best advice. I just wish we could do the day all over again!!

I cannot thank Matt enough for the pictures he took of our wedding day. They are everything we wanted and so much more, capturing candid photos of us and our family on the happiest day. From the moment Matt arrived on the day he made me feel relaxed and excited for what was going to happen, he took all nerves away with his laid back personality and wicked sense of humour! At no point did we feel like we were at a photoshoot, but somehow he produced pictures as if we were. He somehow managed to have our 2 year old behave and love the camera, and made the whole experience so much fun. We had pictures sent to us by the time we got back to the bridal suite the night of the wedding, which was so incredible. Thank you Matt, for the whole experience. The pictures are ones we will treasure for a lifetime. I couldn’t recommend Matt more, super friendly (all our guests loved him!) and incredibly talented.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I genuinely cannot recommend Matt Wing highly enough. From the moment he arrived on our wedding day, he was absolutely incredible and played such an important part in making the whole day feel relaxed, special and unforgettable. Matt was professional, friendly, calm and completely put us at ease. Nothing ever felt forced or overly posed, and he managed to capture the most beautiful, natural moments throughout the day — including so many little details and emotions that we would otherwise have missed. What stood out to me most was how much Matt genuinely cared about our day. When timings didn’t quite go to plan during the morning, he adapted without making me feel stressed and still worked so hard to make sure we captured as many of those important moments as possible. He was patient, understanding and completely focused on making sure we had photographs we could treasure forever. He fitted in so naturally with our family, friends and other suppliers that it honestly felt like having another friend there with us. He knew when to take charge and organise everyone, but also knew when to quietly step back and capture those completely genuine moments. Having recently lost my beautiful mom, the photographs Matt captured of her on our wedding day have become even more precious to me than I could ever put into words. Knowing that we have those beautiful memories of her, smiling and sharing such an important day with us, means absolutely everything to me and my family. Those photographs are truly priceless. Matt didn’t just photograph our wedding — he captured the people, the emotions, the laughter, the love and all of the little moments that made our day ours. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, I honestly wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Matt Wing. He is exceptionally talented, professional and an all-round lovely person, and we will forever be grateful that he was the person who captured one of the most important days of our lives. Thank you so much, Matt. We will treasure these memories for the rest of our lives. 🤍 Sophie & Steven X

We really can't be put into words just how amazing Matt was for our wedding. He captured every special moment and more on our day, and we are still wrapping our heads around how he got everything on his own (we have been to many weddings with a team of photographers that captured less). Our photos are so cherished and capture the day so naturally, and even captured many parts of the day we didn't get to see. On the day he was just great, making everyone feel so at ease, the group photos were quick but perfect so we didn't miss out on the day and we really cannot recommend him enough. Many people have commented on our photos and we are just so grateful!

I’m so happy with the photos Matt took of our special day. We had the most amazing time, and Matt definitely captured the happiness and love of the day. He made us feel at ease when taking the posed photos, and made us feel completely comfortable, even though neither of us are particular comfortable in front of a camera lens. He made sure the focus was on us both enjoying the day, so ensured that the photo sessions were quick and efficient so we were able to rejoin the party! As someone who rarely likes pictures taken of her, I was amazed by how many of the pictures from the day that I absolutely loved! I would definitely recommend Matt!
