I had Matt take some pictures of my 3 boys. I was looking for some high quality studio pictures to capture their adorable age (7mo, 2.5yr & 4yr). You can see his work is amazing. He's got a great artistic eye but is also able to edit better than I knew possible (I had him turn a pic of two boys into a solo shot and he did it without cropping the image). Through the whole process you can tell Matt is really there for his client. He wants to hear your ideas so the set will reflect what you're looking for. The day of the shoot he was sooooo patient with my boys. Being so young, they don't exactly sit still lol. He's a super nice guy delivering a top of the line product. Probably the most VIP feeling photography experience I've had. I highly recommend Illumedia :)

I had first came across Illumedia months ago, when a mutual friend posted images that Matt (Illumedia) had taken of her. I saw what I liked and I knew that I wanted my head shot image to be done by him. I reached out to Matt with a request for a head shot and from day one of my inquiry, he was attentive and accommodating. He was friendly and professional and ensured my session was ready to go. The experience of being photographed by him was amazing. He knew exactly how I should position my head and body to ensure a flattering photo. He gave his honest opinion about which images he thought were flattering and made sure I was 100% satisfied with the proofs I left him with. He was nice and welcoming which made for a comfortable session. I absolutely love my head shot. I've gotten so many compliments about it and Matt is now my go-to photographer for any of my future needs.
