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 about him.
On first meeting, he was professional, and 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’

Thank you Matt!!!
Matt has been with us on our journey from before lockdown, through all our postponements and then on our special day from prep to boogieing! He has been professional, friendly, and a calming presence throughout!
The pictures he captured were stunning, he went above and beyond on the day, going to find a chair for the groom’s Nana when she was tired- he was just wonderful! We would hand on heart completely recommend him! A personal and professional service!
The Keeper and the Dell - Norfolk
JENNA & AIMME
From the moment we contacted Matt he was just incredible and made everything so easy from beginning to end during what is usually a stressful process with organising and prepping for the big day! Matt was kind enough to come to ours a few times working with our availability leading up to the day in order to ensure all parties were happy with the planning and organising with the runnings of the day ready for the big shootouts (hehe not forgetting to mention his amazing sense of humor!).
Matt was perfect and worked incredibly hard all the way through the day, with such patience and a sharp eye to capture the best shots possible- whilst fitting in perfectly with all situations, people and surroundings.
Thank you from us Both Matt, we will always recommend you if anyone is in need of a photographer!

He was absolutely great!
He’s super professional but also friendly and laid back which was exactly what we were after. In the run up to the day he had a big chat with us about his approach and asked us what sort of thing we were after,
On the day he was so brilliant – he really made me and the groom feel relaxed the whole time, and took loads of photos of our friends and family having a great time, as well as things like the formal photos, ceremony and speeches, which was exactly what we wanted. I normally feel really uncomfortable having my picture taken and hate how I look in them, but he made me feel really at ease and not awkward, even during the prep when I was having make up done. We really love the photos he took, they bring back so many great memories of the day.
Can’t recommend him highly enough! Thanks Matt.

Laura & Liam
We received our wedding photos from Matt earlier this week – We are both blown away with them!!
Matt was quick to respond to any queries we had before our big day and extremely flexible with timings and locations on our wedding day.
We’ve had so many of our guests commented on how professional Matt was and several have also commented that they would 100% book Matt if they get married!!
Matt made everyone feel at ease on the day and we are over the moon with our final photos!!

Ellie & Zak
We are so pleased with the wonderful pictures that Matt took of our special day! Matt’s laid back but super attentive nature really put us at ease and calmed any nerves on the day. Neither myself nor my partner particularly enjoy having our photos taken, so having someone like Matt, who can make taking amazing pictures look quick and easy, is exactly what we needed. We simply love the photos and narrowing them down to our favourites has been tough!
All of our guests have told us how much they love the photos – Matt managed to get a good shot of everyone! Matt was always offering to help us throughout the day and nothing was too much trouble.
Thank you so much for everything, Matt!

Matt was amazing!! We had a dream wedding in a castle and every photo taken gave a true reflection of the castle, our family and friend’s and of course us. Matt listened to what we wanted and delivered exactly that… natural photos that told our story, it didnt even feel as if he was there and everyone shared how fab he was. Would Absolutely recommend Matt… awesome!!!
September 26, 2023Thank you Matt!!! Matt has been with us on our journey from before lockdown, through all our postponements and then on our special day from prep to boogieing! He has been professional, friendly, and a calming presence throughout!

September 26, 2022I 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 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.

Matt produced stunning wedding photos for us. He was very friendly and made everyone feel so at ease on the day. He captured all the small details and got the vibe of the wedding captured to a T.
January 26, 2024Right 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 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
September 26, 2022Matt 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 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!

I wish I could rate higher than 5 stars! Matt shot our wedding day and the photos are just phenomenal, we’re both so happy with the whole gallery and the comments from friends and family have been glowing. Throughout the process, Matt was excellent in communicating with us, getting a feel for our interests and how we’d like the photos to be shot. It was super easy to get all invoices paid up and get the show on the road! On the day, Matt was superb. Friendly, approachable and utterly hilarious, he really made it such a fun time. We’re not the types to take many photos so it was a bit daunting to have so many in such a short space of time, but Matt put us at ease and made it easy. I’d recommend him to anyone, without a second thought!
December 26, 2023Matt 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.
September 26, 2023Matt took photos for us at our wedding in July 2022. He was absolutely great! In the run up to the day he had a big chat with us about his approach and asked us what sort of thing we were after, and was always happy to answer questions on email too. On the day he was so brilliant – he really made me and the groom feel relaxed the whole time, and took loads of photos of our friends and family having a great time, as well as things like the formal photos, ceremony and speeches, which was exactly what we wanted. I normally feel really uncomfortable having my picture taken and hate how I look in them, but he made me feel really at ease and not awkward, even during the prep when I was having make up done. We really love the photos he took, they bring back so many great memories of the day. Can’t recommend him highly enough! Thanks Matt.
