Introduction: I'm an ex Nashville music photographer who will make you, your kid, your dog, or your granny look like a rock star. In Arizona, I specialize in portraits, headshots, lifestyle and adventure photography. However, I work with a wide range of clientele and have shot actors, musicians, businessmen/women, food, engagements, events, sports, weddings and 90th birthday parties. I know that every shoot has a specific and unique purpose, and I understand what makes an outstanding image for a particular use. Call me up and I'd love to get started on a personalized project with you. My shoots are laid back and full of corny jokes, and I'm 98.254% sure that you'll have some fun. I can also create custom packages to fit your budget. Some of my credits include Sidetracked Magazine (UK), Alternative Press, Mobile Bay Magazine, Travel Manitoba, Nashville Underground, No Country For New Nashville, Do616

Matt was a total pleasure to work with! We spent a little over an hour taking photos to promote my senior recital at college. He made me feel totally comfortable behind the camera, and the shots came out great! He suggested a great location near a park with lots of great, artsy architecture and scenery. I am still able to use the photos professionally today as head shots and to promote myself as a musician. Very high quality equipment, an eye for beautiful photos, downright fun to be with, great attitude, great price, and very quick turnaround time. I got all my edited photos from the shoot just a few days afterward. I would highly recommend Matt as a great photographer.

Matt Cairns frequently photographed and occasionally also wrote features for No Country For New Nashville. His work is always top-notch, his ability to meet deadlines is great, and his attitude is nothing but positive and professional. Aside from countless Nashville area shows, Matt photographed the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, and did a phenomenal job.

Matt does an incredible job of articulating personality throughout his photography, whether it be in a landscape or portrait. in an age of amateur photography, where anyone can make a picture shine, Matt knows how to dig deep and bring out what lies beneath the surface.

The passion Matt has for his work is seen not only in his enthusiasm, but in each and every photo. From portraits to action shots, and especially in travel. He never stops exploring and I personally can't wait to continue to see what he shares.

Matt was amazing. He made me feel at ease in front of the camera, and the pictures turned out absolutely perfect. Not to mention his photographs from his many journeys all over the world are indescribable. Cant wait to work with him again!

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I love to tell stories, and my way of attempting to do that is to capture a pivotal moment or to portray someone's true character in an image. It only made sense to start working freelance.

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I've done portrait sessions with artists like Noah Gundersen, James Vincent McMorrow, J Roddy Walston & The Business, Firekid, and Pilot Rouge. Some of my credits include Sidetracked Magazine (UK), Mobile Bay Magazine, Travel Manitoba, Nashville Underground, No Country For New Nashville, and Do615.
