Norwich & Norfolk Wedding Photographer
Suffolk, Essex, London
A slightly tall, slightly geeky Norwich & Norfolk Wedding Photographer based in Norwich!
I specialise in bold, fun, candid & documentary-style Wedding photography with a timeless look and feel.
I love laid-back weddings where the focus is on you, your day and the people around you. Capturing those moments and emotions, and all the silly stuff in between.
My mission on the day is to capture everything I can in a relaxed and casual way, allowing you and your guests’ character to shine without interference or pressure (because who needs that on your wedding day?!)
Based in Norwich, I photograph weddings all over East Anglia – Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and occasionally London.
So if you’re looking for a Wedding photographer who’s fun, and occasionally a little nerdy, then I’d love to hear from you!
“Matt was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer, and he really did make our day so special!
He captured our day with beautiful, natural and candid style snapshots, and we can’t thank him enough!”

I would absolutely recommend Matt to anyone who is thinking of hiring him for photography. We hired him for our wedding in Oct 23, and not only was he responsive... read more to emails and working out the plan beforehand, he was a joy to work with on the day. But the best part is the photos that he has produced are incredible and have helped me remember the day with such clarity and joy that I feel I'll be able to keep the spirit of that day alive for years to come. Everyone I've shown them to has been similarly impressed, my new father in law has made the traditional family calendar for this year featuring several of the photos, and my mother has reliably informed me she has ordered several of the prints and will be adding them to the wall with pride. 10/10, excellent service, excellent product, excellent person.

Matt photographed our wedding at the beginning of December and I can honestly say he was brilliant and we adore the photos he took. My husband and I are not... read more naturally comfortable in front of the camera however Matt made us so relaxed. Everyone on the day said how fantastic he was. Would 100% recommend.

I couldn’t have been happier with every aspect of Matt’s service, right from first contact through to the final photo’s and delivery. He was friendly but professional, attentive but... read more not intrusive and even managed to capture mother in law smiling. The quality of the photo’s is superb we felt our wedding day was enhanced thanks to Matt’s thoughtfulness and skill, he captured the love. Thank you

Matt photographed our wedding in August and I can’t explain how pleased we are with the photos we received. We were looking for someone to capture all the small special... read more parts of our day while allowing us to be relaxed and Matt did this. He met with us before the wedding to discuss our requirements and was always easy to contact. Our photos arrived a month after our wedding and did not disappoint, thank you Matt for all your hard work!

Matt made our wedding day so special, he delivered the most candid, beautiful pictures that really captured all the fun had by all. He was so relaxed and just snuck... read more into the background. Everyone said they barely even noticed he was there. As a couple he eased us into our shots and was a lovely, approachable guy. Thanks so much Matt we are so glad we chose you. We are so happy with our photos.

Right I don't even know where to begin, if you're thinking of booking Matt, seriously do it, this man is amazing. I couldn't list a single thing that wasn't fantastic... read more about him. On first meeting, he was professional, friendly, got our vibe, got what we liked, listened to us and instantly felt like a friend. In the build up he was in touch, made us feel we could contact him, gave us suggestions just everything you could want. On the day, well you can see how this is going to go. He was perfect. He was respectful and kind, he was funny, he helped when I needed people and couldn't find them. He made changes when I suddenly decide to cut some of the 'formal photos' list me and my husband had asked for, because trying get the right people together was like trying to heard cats. But he could see I was getting worried and just understood exactly what I needed. And on top of that, his photography is gorgeous. I saw these previews and I just cried, having always felt self conscious Matt gave me the photos I didn't think I could get. Honestly you will never ever regret having Matt, if you want the best photos to remind you of your wedding day, he's 100% the one you should be booking. Thanks Matt, for everything

Matt was an absolute pleasure to work with, and he produced some absolutely incredible photo's from our special day we have enjoyed looking through over and over again. Highly recommend.

We cannot recommend Matt's services enough. He was absolutely wonderful on our wedding day and we couldn't feel more lucky to have had him with us. I've had multiple guests... read more compliment his work and his attitude. The photos we've had back so far are beautiful and I'm very pleased with them. I'm normally very uncomfortable with other people taking my photo but Matt was incredibly easy to talk to and had a great sense of humour which helped massively! Matt, also a special thank you for helping me with my veil! You're a star!
Lucy Smith
I highly recommend Matt Dartford Photography to anyone looking for a a high-quality, enjoyable experience. Matt has a great command of people, which really came in handy at my wedding... read more at Dunston Hall Hotel - he was able to corale people into the right places at the right time in a positive manner. I was so impressed with his ability to capture both the standard formals and the natural photographs that look amazing. We all know how difficult it is to capture a nice, in the moment photo! I've added some of my favourite pictures that he took of our day.
