About
I focus heavily on getting an expression with the client that shows their best features.
I try my best to show everyone who walks into my studio that they can look great in a photograph. I don't believe when people say they are not "photogengic". My job is partly to show them how to become more confident in front of the camera.

Had the most amazing session with Matthew. It felt like I was shooting with a friend Ive known for years. He was friendly, kind, and professional. Took the time to listen to all my preferences and made recommendations that produced results that far exceeded my expectations.I was especially impressed by the speedy turnaround time! I got my photos in less than an hour! If youre on the fence about booking with Matthew, this is your sign to just do it!

Matthew was awesome and made the entire process comfortable. I really enjoyed being able to see the pictures as we took them so I could tweak what I needed, and Matthew also provided lots of help and tips. I'm extremely happy with all of the pictures I had to choose from, and I love my new headshots!

Matt was able to schedule me last minute when my first photographer bailed. Steve Buscemi is more photogenic than me, but the headshots Matt took look great. Plus, he made the experience of taking pictures enjoyable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

I will bring new customers into my studio and walk them through tips to look more confident and approachable in their photographs. We will look through the photos as the session goes on to find the best ones and see what we would like to tweak.

I am always reading and watching videos online on ways to help me and my craft. I am currently a member of the Headshot Crew. A group of headshot photographers being taught by the most well-known headshot photographer in the world, Peter Hurley.
