Matthew Rigby Photography

Matthew Rigby is a Hudson Valley wedding photographer based in Garrison, NY, documenting weddings across Westchester, the Hudson Valley, and New York City. With a decade of wedding photography experience and 15 years as an educator, he brings thorough preparation, clear communication, and composure to every wedding day. His approach emphasizes candid, documentary-style coverage, with approximately 90% of the day captured as events naturally unfold. Rather than directing moments, he works to be present without being intrusive. For a small portion of the day, he collaborates with couples to create portraits, but the majority of his work focuses on documenting authentic feeling and emotion. Couples consistently report they didn't notice his presence, yet found he captured all the moments that mattered to them. Matthew has photographed at venues throughout the Hudson Valley including Boscobel House and Gardens, The Garrison, The Ruins at Sassafras, and The Barn at Villa Venezia. He works with a small, trusted team and brings a second photographer to every full-day wedding. Collections for full wedding day coverage start at $4,000 and are customized to fit each couple's specific needs, as no two weddings are the same.
