about us

First for Weddings was launched in 2005 by celebrity photographer, Matt Fagg. At the time Matt was being asked by many friends to shoot their weddings. It was at this point Matt decided he wanted to take his vision, passion for photography and professional approach to other marrying couples.

 A year later Matt pulled in a talented team of Hair stylists and Make-up artists to offer a truly comprehensive visual service for brides and grooms.

 We pride ourselves on our talent, professional approach and genuine customer service. Be sure to invest in beautiful images that will last a lifetime from a company that cares about you looking your best on your wedding day.

Choose First for Weddings because beautiful weddings deserve beautiful photography.
