Hi there! We're the team behind Duet Photography & Video. We're a collection of wedding photographers, filmmakers, designers, and editors. We each have our own story of how we've come to be a part of this incredibly field of wedding journalism. As individual as we are, we're all bound by the same love for our craft – the artistry of blending documentary journalism with stunning, creative vision. With over a thousand weddings under our collective belts, we've photographed and filmed weddings of every shape and size imaginable. We can't wait to document your wedding as well!

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with the Duet team! From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive, answering all our questions and putting us at ease. My husband and I initially felt a little awkward in front of the camera, but Mike and his team gave us the perfect amount of direction to help us relax and enjoy the moment. They followed our photo list perfectly, while also pivoting seamlessly whenever we wanted an extra shot or when last-minute changes came up, like moving first look photos from the park to the hotel courtyard when it rained (which still turned out stunning, you would have never known!). My bridal party and family absolutely loved working with them, and once the party started, they blended into the background, capturing the most beautiful candid moments without us even realizing they were there. One of my absolute favorites was the set of night photos we decided to do last minute—they came out magical. The entire team was professional, kind, and beyond talented. I’m in love with both our photos and the video—they perfectly capture the joy of the day. I was very picky when it came to photographers, researching extensively through Instagram and BOLI fb group before finding them. Their use of natural lighting makes every photo look breathtaking, and after seeing their work, I knew I had to have them for my wedding. Mike, Hanel, and the whole team exceeded every expectation. We will treasure these memories forever!

My husband and I wanted to feel like ourselves and have fun with the photos and that is exactly what they delivered. I was never stressed about the photos or the video because I knew Megan and Kenneth had it completely covered. They were extremely responsive over email and zoom calls in the months before the wedding and would answer all questions promptly. They even provided extremely helpful suggestions and built the photography timeline for the wedding so it never felt like we were running behind or losing time.

Pedro was absolutely incredible to work with. From start to finish, our engagement session experience exceeded every expectation. He was so communicative beforehand, which immediately put us at ease, and in person he was warm, personable, and genuinely fun to be around. My fiancé and I love taking photos, but we never really know how to pose — and Pedro directed us like a true expert. He made everything feel natural and effortless, and we felt completely comfortable the entire time. We shot at the Art Institute of Chicago, and he captured so many stunning moments. One of the most special parts: while chatting between photos, we casually mentioned that we loved “Paradise Lost” by Raqib Shaw. Before we even realized it, Pedro had taken us there and created the most breathtaking photos in front of it. That thoughtfulness meant so much to us. On top of everything, we received our gallery even sooner than the timeline he originally estimated. The photos are beyond beautiful — truly better than we could have imagined. 10/10. We couldn’t recommend Pedro more!

I shoot across DFW — Dallas, Fort Worth, McKinney, Frisco, Prosper, Plano — and travel for couples marrying farther afield. Nine countries and 1,000+ weddings so far. My approach is editorial and unobtrusive. I document the day rather than direct it, because I want your images to make you feel the moment again, not simply see it. I take a limited number of weddings each year so each one gets real attention. Tell me your date and venue and I'll confirm availability right away.

Her keen eye for detail and her ability to work seamlessly with us as wedding planners made a significant difference.

Furthermore, the efficiency and organization skills of Courtney, their studio manager, were impeccable. She was always on top of everything, ensuring smooth communication and coordination. This level of dedication and attentiveness is rare and was greatly appreciated. The final images were breathtaking, and our clients were overjoyed with the memories captured.

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

Justin was an amazing photographer for our elopement (just the 2 of us)! We zoom chatted with him before booking him, and we loved his vibe immediately and knew we would be comfortable in his presence to fully express all of the romantic, intimate, and silly parts of our relationship. He did a fantastic job with the details, including flagging 5 days in advance that our elopement date would be rained out, so that we were able to immediately reschedule for 2 days later. He expertly laid out the train of my dress, helped me fix my hair, etc. and also touched up the photos afterwards to fix little things. He did a great job guiding us with suggested poses while also capturing our spontaneous candid moments. It was a very fun and relaxing photography session, and the photos turned out amazing -- perfect lighting, composition, etc. 10/10 would recommend him to all couples!

Where do I begin? Karina goes above and beyond for her clients. I know because I was/am/forever will be one of them. She is one of the kindest people I have ever met and she is amazing at becoming your best friend instantly! She is personable, yet still professional. She addresses all questions concerns with complete honesty and is incredibly helpful at the same time. More details for each kind of session: Engagement session: My husband and I got in front of a camera for the first time together for our engagement session with Karina. We were both so nervous because we don’t consider ourselves photogenic, but Karina said and proved otherwise!! We felt so comfortable with the funny prompts she gave us and cheering us on as the session went on. Boudoir Session: 10/10 - AMAZING EXPERIENCE!! I wish it wasn’t over and I plan on doing this again! I couldn’t thank Karina enough for this experience, even if I tried. This was a big first for both of us, and I am still shocked at how sexy and empowered it made me feel! It felt like I was in a safe space and I was completely comfortable in my own skin for the first time in my life. Karina explains and can show the poses in details that are easy to catch on to right away. She was so encouraging the entire time and made me feel like a real life model. The mimosas, little charcuterie board and music was a nice touch to get the mood set just right. This shoot was originally for my future husbands wedding gift, but this ultimately for everyone with or without a partner! You will go home feeling sexy and confident with (and without) clothes on. P.S. ORDER THE ALBUM!! So worth it. Bridal Session: See above boudoir review for how I got to feel yet AGAIN! Okay, sure, I had more clothes on this time (my gorgeous wedding dress), however, I felt the same! I felt amazing, beautiful, and all the feels. This was when being engaged really hit and Karina was so supportive through all the emotions and made sure everything was, quite literally, picture perfect! Wedding Day: Holy moly, “SNOWPACALPSE,” as Karina said in her blog, hit one week before my wedding and STAYED until the day AFTER my wedding. Although I am so thankful for the snow I had prayed about for my wedding, there were icy roads to be able to get to the wedding venue. But wouldn’t you know, Karina still came! And away we went, trotting through the snow, freezing our behinds off to get those photos! She was so kind, when I said I had enough, we went back inside to warm up. From her blog, it was 9 minutes. NINE. MINUTES. For so many amazing, beautiful photos?! Karina did the impossible! Not only that, but my husband and I probably tortured everyone, especially Karina, because my dream was to have a morning, brunch wedding at 9:30AM. We were all there before the sun came up and saying that was an early morning is an understatement. I was pretty distracted the rest of the day, but she made sure to get all the photos I wanted and delivered them all in a short four weeks. Thank you so much for everything!! We are forever grateful to have hired you as our wedding photographer! ETA Feb. 2026: We have continued to use Karina at least once a year to update our family photos. She is unparalleled, world-class, exceptional and masterful at what she does. She only gets better year after year and we are in awe of how that could be possible when we are blown away every time. You will not be disappointed. If you need a sign, this is it. Choose Karina.

At Matool weddings we capture your wedding in a way that actually feels like you. The big moments, the quiet in-between ones, and all the little details you didn’t even realize mattered—we’re there for all of it. With real wedding experience, we know how things flow, what to look for, and how to make sure nothing important gets missed while you just enjoy your day.

Matool Pictures did a fantastic job with my graduation photos. The team was professional, friendly, and made me feel comfortable throughout the session. Their creativity with poses and lighting captured beautiful, natural shots that truly reflected my joy and pride. The photos were delivered on time and professionally edited. I highly recommend Matool Pictures for anyone wanting quality photography and lasting memories of their special moments.

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
