Introduction

I've been doing photography for 10 years (full-time since November 2019) and I love constantly learning and working with others. My goal is to capture moments and people in a way that is creative and from a story telling perspective. I'd love to chat more -- feel free to reach out with any questions! Or share your idea with me and we can chat more about how to bring it to life :) I have a background in digital marketing and styling and have been in the space for over a decade. I’ve worked with over 100 brands including Budweiser, Coach, LUSH, Express, Verizon, and more. xx Mattea

We hired Mattea to photograph our micro wedding in Milwaukee earlier this summer. She produced so many beautiful shots of the venue, us getting ready, as a couple, family shots, the ceremony and so much more. Mattea was an absolute joy to work and is excellent at her craft, producing photographs that really capture the vibe and essence of any event and people. My husband and I were also very appreciative of her prep process which consisted of a phone call, questionnaire and in person walk thru. All in all we highly recommend Mattea for any of your photography needs!

Details: Wedding • Fewer than 25 guests • Outdoors • Digital or online download

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Prices vary--message for rates. My editing turn around time is typically 5-7 business days.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been in business for about a decade. I'm completely self- taught and have learned everything I know from experience!
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started a fashion blog back in 2014, and took a lot of photos of my friends' outfits. Over time I just learned to love being behind the camera! Being in front of the camera has helped form who I am as a photographer as I quickly learned flattering poses and how to work with props and various scenes.
