Hey, I’m Mattie—your go-to photographer for offbeat love stories, anti-wedding weddings, and the beautifully chaotic in-between.
I didn’t get into this to make people look perfect, I got into it to make people feel seen. I photograph the loud love, the quiet moments, the weird shit, the pure joy. If you’re eloping in the desert, saying “screw it” at city hall, or planning something your grandma might not fully approve of... I’m already obsessed.
I’ve been taking photos since I was like 7, but I started my business and started photographing professionally in 2018. In September of 2022 I left my full-time job to pursue my photography business, I loved that job, I loved majority of the work (not all of it, cause let’s be real) and the people I worked with, but I had this feeling that if I didn’t jump now to try and pursue my dreams that I would someday really regret it. So I jumped.
When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me editing photos, just kidding, but seriously, I’m also a full time photo editor. I love to travel (sitting by the ocean or on the top of a mountain and taking deep breaths is theeeee best), but I also can get down with walking blocks and blocks of the city and taking in everything that it has to offer. I love baking and finding new things to put sourdough in, reading for fun, snuggling my my husband and cats, trying different kinds of craft beers, hitting up food trucks, music festivals, and planning my next tattoo. .
This isn’t just about wedding photos. This is about telling your story without watering it down.
So if you’re planning something untraditional, unfiltered, and unapologetically yours—I wanna be there. Camera in hand. Middle fingers up. Let’s make magic
