Introduction

Gelfman Photography is a boutique photography studio that prides itself on a friendly and collaborative experience. It's led by Matt and Lesley, a very in-love couple themselves (to-be-married in 2023!), who both have their Bachelor's in Photography and over ten years of experience in portrait and wedding/event work. Photography—especially wedding photography—is a very personal service. We sincerely believe your photographers should not be nameless employees tossed your way, especially on one of the most important days of your life! From start to finish we're intent on being friends to you, doing everything we can to make your day stress-free and fun, while also getting stunning shots of your big day. In using Gelfman Photography, you're guaranteed all the expertise and high-quality results of a large studio, but with more exclusive attention to your personal vision and overall experience. Have a random question or a particular photo you want re-created? Shoot us a text or give us a call, day or night!

The Wedding Industry

As a photographer, it's hard not to love weddings. They encompass everything a photographer would want in a shoot—beautiful atmospheres, smiling faces, and endless opportunities to produce artistic and eye-catching work. After working with larger studios, we found the only thing lacking was the personal relationship between photographer and client, something that was sorely missed on such an emotional event. So, to remedy that, we went solo! Now we get the best of both worlds, and every wedding we shoot ends up being a chance to laugh with and share in the joy of the happy couple we've already developed a connection with, while knowing the shots we're getting are exactly what they're looking forward to!

Company History

Matt (Gelfman) started the business in 2018, and as fate would have it he started dating Lesley not long after. It was quickly apparent that they not only made a great team as a couple, but as partners, as well. From there Gelfman Photography has evolved quite quickly, as Lesley brought a keen eye as not only a talented photographer but a stylist and social media specialist, too! We're always looking to grow as a company, but we will never lose the personal focus and high quality we're able to maintain as a more boutique operation.

You cannot go wrong with Matt & Lesley. During our engagement shoot and wedding, Matt and Lesley made us feel extremely relaxed and comfortable. They are super laid back and understood the vision we were going for. Matt is super responsive over email and is always willing to hop on the phone to discuss my questions and concerns. We just got the teaser gallery back and we are so beyond happy with how they came out. Matt and Lesley are truly professionals and take a lot of pride in what they do.

The best of the best! I texted with Matt for months leading up to the wedding with inspo photos and bounced ideas around with him. I am so obsessed with our photos. They were so calm and really gave us such a personalized experience and I couldn’t recommend them more. They were so open to every trend and nailed every photo!

From the very beginning, Matt was professional, responsive, and accommodating when booking a photographer for our wedding day. He was timely, and made everything run so smooth. He was able to get us our images VERY QUICKLY and each picture was more beautiful than the last. He captured so many important people and moments throughout the night, I don't know how he was able to do it all! We are so so thankful and happy that we chose Matt to capture our big day. I would 100% recommend him for anyone who wants gorgeous pictures of any important event in their life.
