When looking for a photographer for our wedding, my criteria were that the photographer takes…read morebeautiful shots and that they are reliable. After looking through Brian's impressive portfolio and sitting down with him to talk, we decided to hire him for our wedding and engagement shoot. Brian completely exceeded my expectations in every way possible. Brian is not only very reliable, but he is also extremely dedicated to his work. Brian drove over 90 miles to get to our engagement photo shoot and on the way he stopped at a gas station on the south side of Chicago where he stepped on two nails, which punctured his foot. Although we insisted that we reschedule so he could take care of himself, he still arrived (early, as his style) ready to shoot our session. He carried his equipment on his back on his injured foot for miles around Chicago, and took some of the most breathtaking photos I have ever seen. Brian helped us to feel completely comfortable the entire time. I remember being impressed with how he can walk backwards, get to know us better by carrying on a conversation, assess the lighting of the area around him, all while shooting pictures that made our families cry and that we will treasure forever. We are happier than ever that we chose Brian and his assistant Greg to shoot our wedding on July 13, 2013. On the day of my wedding, I didn't have time to notice all of the details that I previously spent so much time planning. Brian perfectly captured all of these details in his photographs. There were many shots that I would have never thought to ask him to take, but because of his professionalism and experience he provided these pictures for us. Most importantly, Brian captured the moments that happen so quickly.. but that I will remember forever. Because of his talent, I have photos of my mom trying not to cry as I step into my dress, my grandmother giggling with the woman who was doing her make up, my groom's first teary look at me, and so much more. You are a lucky couple if you get to book Brian for your wedding!

I will tell you a little story. 17 years ago I was looking for a photographer to take my senior…read moreportriats, but I only wanted black and white. I spent an entire summer calling around to photographers, and going to check out their work. After 3 months and dozens of photographers, most who would only do a portion in black and white, I found Kane Photography. Marie Kane had no problem with my request and the quality of her work was superior to any other photographer I had previously gone to. Since that time I have used Kane Photography for any of my photography needs. They did my senior pictures, my wedding, baby pictures for my oldest, and countless family portraits. In the last 17 years I have lived all over the world, and currently reside in Phoenix, Arizona. However, when it's time for pictures my family and I travel to Rockford, Illinois and go to Kane Photography. Matt, Marie, and Doreen have become like family to us, and no other photographer captures the beauty of life quite like they do. If your looking for a photographer who will truly capture your precious life moments, look no further than Kane. I promise you will not be disappointed.

Ryan photographed my band (tenmonthsummer) at our first show ever and to this day one of those photos is my computer background. Their pricing is extremely reasonable given how good the photos are. We didn't make any special requests for coloring or B&W because we trust Ryan's vision, but I'm sure they would be able to accommodate anything reasonable. With how good Ryan's photos turn out, we HAD to use them again for one of our biggest shows ever opening for national touring act from Australia, Trophy Eyes. In this review you can see some of their photos from that show. They speak for themselves. Mind you, Ryan is also a student and is balancing that life with their photography career, so for this show Ryan gave us a heads up that the full shot list would be a little longer, but still gave us a handful of amazing selects THE NEXT DAY so we had something for socials. Once again, I cannot speak higher of how professional and excellent Ryan's work and partnership are. We WILL be using Ryan again and I strongly recommend you take the leap if you haven't!

We couldn't have asked for a better photography team than Matt Mason Photography for our wedding…read moreday! From the very beginning, communication with Matt was clear and easy. He was always quick to respond, professional, and genuinely excited to capture our day. The automated check ins really kept us on track and easy to follow during all of the planning chaos. On the wedding day itself, both Matt Mason and Ben Hanson made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which is not always easy to do! They gave us just the right amount of guidance without making anything feel forced, so all of our photos look natural and full of joy. Both of them were calm, kind, and fun to be around, which helped us relax and actually enjoy the photo process. The results are stunning and we'll treasure these photos forever. We are so grateful for all the effort, attention to detail, and care they put into making sure everything was perfect. If you're looking for photographers who are talented, easy to work with, and truly go above and beyond, Matt Mason Photography is the one to book!

My husband and I hired Matt and his team for our Indian/American fusion wedding in Minneapolis, MN…read more I was familiar with his work through a friend and the quality/value of other photographers I was considering in the Twin Cities just didn't compare. It was definitely worth it to us to have Matt travel to MN - we got an 8 hour package, fusion film, and flush mount album. Matt and Matt put us, our families, and bridal party very much at ease throughout the day, and were very considerate of cultural and personality needs. They gave us latitude on certain photos/poses we wanted but also gave us great ideas. I would highly recommend Matt Mason Photography for any event!
