The pictures from our wedding look like they were pulled from a dream. Every single image captured a moment in time we will never forget. You were so incredible to have around! Everyone felt so relaxed; the pictures are just perfect and magical. It was difficult to translate the beauty and the magic that we all shared that weekend, but somehow every picture does. No one else could have done it.

I wanted to drop you a line to let you know how much we adore our wedding photographs! And the most astonishing thing was that I barely noticed you during the wedding...The shots were fantastic: the flowers, the tents, the beach, our closest friends and family -- you got it all...You exceeded our wildest expectations, and I can't tell you how much we appreciate your work.

I literally burst into tears of joy when I saw the photos you took at our wedding. I never imagined it would be possible to capture the joy, emotion, and intensity of that incredible weekend, but you managed to do just that. You caught every little nuance, the tears, the laughter, the hand holding, and even the secret kisses. Your photographs allow us to relive each moment as if it were happening all over again for the first time.

After having such a magical wedding day, I only wished it could have lasted longer until I received my beautiful wedding photos from Matt.  In many photos were moments I remember every single detail but in several other photos, Matt captured the evening through my family and friends eyes, completing each and every memory for me! With Matt's superb photography I will cherish these memories for a lifetime!

Matt did a fantastic job not only capturing the typical wedding scenes but also the candid moments that we never had the chance to see ourselves.. We were every bit as impressed with his professionalism and positive attitude as we were with the resulting photos. We cannot recommend him highly enough!

Matt Gillis was an absolute dream to work with. With calm determination and crystal-clear focus, he was able to capture the essence of our big, rowdy group of family and friends in both posed and candid shots. The result is a stunning compilation of photographic memories that will undoubtedly make us smile for years to come.

You are a gem! We could not have asked for a better day or a better photographer. The photography was #2 on my list of wedding priorities (after the venue booking) and now I'm speechless. Having spent some time with me, you know how rare that is. Your gift for capturing the essence of people is nothing less than remarkable. We are thrilled with our pictures - your vision and talent have given us the gift of being able to relive the happiest day of our lives forever. Thank you.

Every time I look at our wedding pictures I think, not only think about how gorgeously done they are and what a great job Matt did, but I immediately get transported back to that very moment in time. It's the best feeling in the world.

Matt Gillis was able to capture our guests at just the right moment, everyone looked their best!  I was truly amazed by the number of quality photos we ended up with.  His charisma, responsiveness and flexibility makes me want to hire Matt for every single firm event.  I was most impressed by the final package I received shortly after our event which contained all of our proofs organized in a beautiful leather photo box.

Matthew Gillis has been working with the Intrepid Museum for a little over two years and each time he manages to photographically capture our events with expertise, grace and professionalism. We very much appreciate his support for the Intrepid and we hope to continue our relationship with him into the future.

Matt Gillis has been photographing for Historic Hudson Valley for over a decade and it has been a pleasure to work with him.. His photographs are polished, elegant and he always manages the right shot.. Perhaps his trick is lightning or timing or just knowing what flatters most.. Whatever it is, Matt delivers a superbly crafted product.
Waddell Stillman
President, Historic Hudson Valley

Our events tend to look the same--a speaker at a podium, the meet and greet of the guests--and the images can start to get monotonous. But Matt always captures the moments that convey the spirit of an event and what makes it special. His professional and pleasant manner puts everyone at ease and guarantees outstanding results. I rely on Matt's work both to record the history of our organization and to help us communicate our mission.
