We can not recommend NEC enough! Though we knew we wanted a photographer (as is traditional), we were undecided about a videographer until meeting Matt – at which point we knew we had to incorporate videography in our wedding day. We found NEC through the recommendation of our wedding planner, and after watching some sample footage from NEC’s Instagram and website, we were blown away. It wasn’t just the NEC portfolio that impressed us, though. Matt’s rigorous attention to detail and commitment to balancing our creative/artistic vision with his own sets him apart.

We met Matt early in the wedding planning process via a Zoom call. He took time to understand our personalities as individuals, first, and then our identity as a couple preparing to get married. He asked us questions about our artistic style – but also our favorite music, our favorite foods, and what we did for fun. (Mind you, we hadn’t actually booked Matt yet.) We appreciated his level of attentiveness, though, because it made us confident that whatever footage/final product he produced from our wedding day would center our experience and creative/romantic vision of the day). Fast-forward 18 months when Matt was beginning the editing process, and though we had chatted on several occasions about an artistic direction for our wedding video, he emailed us some notes he’d written down during our initial call with the early thoughts we had shared about things we wanted prioritized/not prioritized in the video. He asked us if this was still how we felt, now that the wedding was over. This was like a chef coming to your table to ask about your meal, and if he can get you anything – again, this sets Matt apart. In fact, there were some important things we wanted to change from those initial thoughts because our perspective had changed. That attention to detail is baller.

As for the wedding day itself: Matt (and his second shooter, Dan) were professional, energetic, and operated mostly behind-the-scenes, as we’d hoped. We didn’t want to hear the whirring of drones as we delivered our vows. We didn’t want the photographers/videographers tripping over each other. Matt assured us neither of those things would happen, and sure enough, they didn’t. One of the many things we love about Matt and NEC is the way they genuinely captured our day as it unfolded (not as tons of staging or doctoring could have made it seem.) We gave Matt a lot of artistic license and the video he delivered was very authentic to us. Of course, there were some moments where we stopped to get a certain shot, especially during the sunset hour, but the balance was terrific.

Thank you, Matt. We will watch our wedding video on our anniversary for years to come.

Matt is one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! From the first meeting, to the big day he put us at ease and instantly felt like one of our friends we had known forever. This makes a huge difference when you are spending the most important day of your life with this person with you every step of the way. Besides his unbelievable work which speaks for itself (not a cookie cutter boring/cheesy wedding film in sight! Each video tells its own couples story) he is an absolute trooper! It was DOWNPOURING our entire wedding day. Some videographers would say "let's shoot inside" but not Matt. He trucked right out into the monsoon with us and got unbelievable movie quality footage of us frolicking. Not a complaint or a question- if we were game, so was he. Our guests commented that they were impressed with how quickly Matt was moving from one spot to the next (basically flying up stairwells at lighting speed) and I have had countless friends request his name once they saw our final work. AMAZING. I think pictures are great, but there is nothing like having a video of your special day. The sounds, the movements, the little details you forgot; it is amazing for us to have this film to cherish forever. You will not be disappointed with hiring New England Creative for your wedding day.

The work that Matt does is something so rare and special to find. We were so honored to work with Matt at New England Creative for our videography at our October 2021 wedding. Matt was so warm, friendly and personable from the very start and guided us through the whole process until our wedding day. Our teaser film brought us to happy tears and we cannot wait to see the final product and to have these memories on video for a lifetime. Matt gives a final product that truly stays with you forever, and we are so very thankful that we had him on our team on our big day!
