We're not ordinary wedding photographers. We are awesomer.
Yes, we know that's not a word. And we don't care. We might love our cameras more than we love each other (just kidding! kind of.) NYC is our home base but we have been known to travel far and wide in search of the perfect taco.
We both like to cook, but nobody likes to do the dishes. We've been married for a little over a year, share an office, and still love to spend time together.
We can't wait to hang out with you and hear all about your wedding. Get in touch!
We are Mat and Erin and we love to tell love stories.

Mona and Andrew are such a lovely, down-to-earth couple. We shot their engagement session in their beautiful, West Village backyard. Check out this space, as an amateur gardener, I was so jealous! We poured some Pastis and had so much fun talking that it took us three hours to shoot the session. It was lush and gorgeous and completely comfortable, just like these two. Their Indian-Jewish wedding is coming up next and we cannot wait to photograph it!
Nick and Diana are really one of a kind. They are whip-smart, incredibly funny and totally in love. When we met with them for the first time we spent three hours talking. Their engagement shoot in Central Park was no different. We couldn’t stop laughing and joking and wishing it could go on all day. The shoot started on the roof of the venue for their September wedding. That view of Central Park is unbelievable and it will reappear in their wedding photos. Both Mat and I couldn’t stop photographing them. Have you ever seen anyone more beautiful?
Stefanie and Pat wanted to do something different with their engagement shoot and picked the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. They were engaged there and the place holds special meaning in their relationship. We’re always happy to do something different and had a great time with them dodging the security guards and capturing their love against the backdrop of some spectacular art. Plus, sunshine!
This is the actual location of the proposal, just off the sculpture garden.
Heidi and John wanted an industrial, New Yorky vibe to their engagement photos so off to DUMBO we went! Aren’t they the most adorable? We love how they look like the friendliest J.Crew models ever. We had a ton of fun and actually had beautiful weather for this special couple!
Your wedding is not for your parents. It’s not for your best friend, or best man. It’s not for your grandmother, though you may wear her jewelry or her veil. Your wedding is for you and your beloved, only. It may not feel like that, but it’s true.
As soon as you start planning a wedding everyone has their own idea of what’s best for you, what kind of food you should eat, what music should be played or what traditions you must include. But the only thing that matters is what you want. Your family’s expectations may be hard to navigate, but at the end of it all is a ceremony with you both standing together. The day should be a reflection of your values as a new family. Use the planning process to really figure out what’s important to you. Respectfully ignore the multitude of opinions and: wear a short dress, rent a photo booth, dance your first dance to a hip hop tune, ride off on an elephant, cut all your hair off the week before, get matching wedding tattoos, or hire a taco truck for dinner. It is your day and your memories matter more than anyone else’s.
