About Matthew Rigby Photography
Matthew Rigby Photography
Authentic wedding photography for intentional couples in the Hudson Valley. Based in Garrison, NY I specialize in documenting candid moments while blending natural light with artistic off camera flash techniques, which I use to highlight both the natural setting of a wedding and special moments between you and your loved ones. From scenic venues to intimate ceremonies, I document emotion-driven wedding stories and real connections with care and empathy. My calm, grounded presence helps you feel at ease in front of the camera. I guide you through the planning and deliver timeless photos that bring you back to how your day felt for decades.
We begin by getting to know each other so that your photos fully reflect you and so that you feel more comfortable on your wedding day. As we progress through your planning process we work together and develop your timeline so that all of your favorite people and moments are photographed. On your big day I am always there but never noticed to allow you to truly be in the moment. When it is time to pose, I use simple yet creative prompts because your photos should feel natural and like you. Your photos will feel like authentic memories and will be treasured for a lifetime since I When I have free time I love to travel, brew beer, hike and run.

INCREDIBLE
Matthew was truly beyond incredible. Words can hardly do him justice. From the moment he arrived, his calm, kind, and grounding energy set the tone for the entire evening. Beyond his amazing presence, his work speaks for itself. The photos left us absolutely speechless. Every image looked like it belonged in a magazine, yet still felt so personal and full of heart. He captured the perfect balance of candid moments and thoughtful details, each shot filled with genuine emotion and artistry. You can feel the love and care he pours into his work. Matthew is such a rare soul, unbelievably talented, but also deeply good-hearted. We’ll cherish these photos forever and will always be so grateful that he was the one who captured our day. He’s not just highly recommended, he’s a must-hire for your wedding or any event where you want stunning, heartfelt photos that truly tell your story.

Matthew Rigby Photography was a wonderful choice for our wedding photographer. Their communication was quick and responsive, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work is fantastic - we're absolutely thrilled with the teaser photos we've seen so far! On the day of our wedding, Matthew made us feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera, and he was very professional and friendly with all of our guests. Everyone at our wedding raved about how great he was, and the photos we've received are absolutely fantastic.
Response from vendor•Nov 2, 2025Thank you Amy! It’s great to hear that you appreciated our communication during the process, your day of experience, and the quality of the images. You were both a joy to work with, it was such a great day at Tilly’s Table! Congrats and best wishes for your marriage 😁Danielle & Steve 9.26.25
From start to finish, Matthew Rigby Photography went above and beyond. They took the time to get to know us and what mattered most, and it really shows in every photo. They made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and captured our day in such an authentic and meaningful way. We couldn’t have asked for more.
Response from vendor•Oct 29, 2025Thank you so much Danielle! Your wedding was a lot of fun at Drowned Lands Brewery, I’m glad that you felt like your photos were natural and an authentic documentation of your day. Congratulations on your marriage and best wishes :)Matthew Rigby Photography Review
Matthew Rigby Photography is the best of the best and is unmatched in professionalism and true passion for capturing the perfect moments. Over the last few months, I had begun my process of looking for the right photographer to help me perfect my dream proposal for my girlfriend of 7 years. Having no experience in looking for photographers, I sent out inquiries to many local ones. Within an hour of sending these out, I received an email from Matthew who asked to set up a zoom meeting the next day. After jumping on the call, it was evidently clear that Matthew shared my vision of creating a great proposal and was willing to help in any way possible not just as a photographer but also as a proposal planner. Over the next few weeks, we talked almost daily about different plans and eventually settled on one that seemed best. Being unfamiliar with the venue I planned to propose at; he even met me there a week prior to do a walk through of the entire property, so I was prepared for the big day. With weather jeopardizing the proposal, Matthew had come up with plan A, B and C to ensure the day was still special, despite the rain. The weather ended up holding out and the proposal went even better than planned, thanks to Matthew. Less than 24 hours after the proposal and our photo shoot, Matthew sent us our photo album so we could share with friends and family. The photos came out unbelievable, and Matthew helped us capture a moment we will never forget!
Response from vendor•Oct 24, 2025Thank you so much for your review Griffin! I am so happy for you and Jade, congratulations on your new engagement! It was a pleasure to help you plan out your big day and to document your special moments. It was a really beautiful day, even through the rain! Congratulations again, and I hope you enjoy your engagement :)
