Highlights.
I capture life's milestones, family, weddings, events, and careers in our North Plainfield, IL studio or on-location in the greater Chicagoland area. I'm a natural light and bright photographer and I enjoy working with creative lighting. My color editing is true to life leaning towards cooler tones in the summer and warmer tones in the fall. 

"I strive to produce images that are personal to each client. Every session has it’s own unique journey which I capture in natural or creative light."

We had an amazing experience with Matt! He was friendly and efficient and our pictures turned out great. I loved the prop catalog too. Matt was able to work with our family and toddler to get great smiles. Highly recommend, and can’t wait to book him again in the near future!

We have used Matt as our photographer for many years. Every occasion- we book with Matt; our wedding, newborn photos for our kids, 1 year photo sessions, Santa photos, and extended family photos. Matt is extremely accommodating, personable, easy to talk to, and is so talented.

Matt is truly incredible to work with. I don't know how it is possible, but my photos get better year after year. He always makes my vision come alive and is extremely easy to work with. Spends over the allotted time with my family to ensure we get all the pictures I am hoping for.

Matt was a DREAM to work with for our wedding. We met with several photographers before we met Matt and instantly booked him for our engagement photos. He made me and my camera shy husband feel extremely comfortable and when we got our final images back I was BLOWN AWAY and we instantly booked him for the wedding. Matt is professional, so kind and very knowledgeable. He makes the whole process seamless and laid back. His prices are super reasonable considering his level of work. Me and my husband are also different races and family members cautioned me to pick the right photographer. Matt did a perfect job capturing us so we both looked our absolute best. Matt also was very open to all my image ideas. We wanted to take engagement photos in a bar and he was 200% down to do it and even coordinated with the bar so we could go in before they officially opened for our session. Our wedding was an evening wedding but we still wanted photos outside and he made magic happen so I got everything I wanted. I can't recommend Matt enough honestly!
