About the Photographers / Contact Information
Matt
I have enjoyed photography throughout my life, but only recently decided to start a business to cover the expenses associated with my hobby.
​
I have a full-time job and children so occasionally my availability is limited.
​
I have no formal photography training, but have picked up plenty along the way and continue to learn more every day. I shoot almost exclusively with natural light, but have begun to experiment with off-camera flash.
​
What is shown in each of my albums are the photos that have been selected by each client to be edited. I was fortunate to meet an avid photographer in Mika. If possible, we accompany each other to shoots. We each have a different editing style so our clients get a wide range of finished photos.
​
I set out to do the things I dislike about full-time photographers. I provide all original photos to the client, let the client chose which photos they want edits of, and can offer reasonable prices since this isn't my main profession.
Michaella (Mika)
I'm a globe-trotting foodie who specializes in lifestyle, portrait, and wedding photography.
​
I fell in love with photography in high school when I discovered the power of pictures, the stories they tell, and the connections they create.
​
My career journey began as a serial entrepreneur and then landed me right back into photography. Because. . . well, it's my calling.
​
You know that question people ask about what would you be doing even if you were not getting paid or if you had all the free time in the world? Well my answer to that is a strong and instantaneous, "Look through the lens of my camera to capture the people and the world around me with my girls beside me."
​
I love taking pictures of real moments. I strive to capture timeless photos that tells the story of who you are, who you hope to be, and the dreams you aspire to accomplish.
​
Besides photography, there's a few other things that I love. Such as my three beautiful girls who bring so much joy to my life, food (I will try anything at least twice), traveling, cooking, plays and musicals, research (seriously), new experiences (at least good ones), my sister (well, she did give me two beautiful nephews so I have no choice but to list her), and a good book.
​
It is my pleasure to capture the special moments and connections of the people I encounter. I am grateful to be able to travel all over the world, to be part of timeless and priceless moments.
​
To ensure that our clients get the most personal and professional care from us, we take a limited amount of work each year. We are currently booking work for 2019. Thanks for visiting our site and we hope to capture one of your precious moments in the near future.
