Freelance professional commercial Photographer/Art Director. My primary focus continues to be work consisting of fashion, editorial, print, commercial, urban, lifestyle and advertising.

I have very reasonable rates for model testing & portfolios….Contact me here for my rates.
Not currently taking any requests for TFP/CD . . Feel free to e-mail me directly @:mmatthews1018@yahoo.com
My aim is to always shoot images that evoke emotion from the model to engage and intrigue the viewer. Shooting high contrast editorial and artistic type images are what I love creating the most. If you agree then perhaps we should discuss working together. . . Also, working with models who are in need of building, updating or adding variety to their portfolio continues to be the most rewarding part of my work.
__________________________________________________________________
ATTENTION!! I WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT APPROVE ANY BLIND FRIEND REQUESTS
I drive to shoot more conceptual editorial/high fashion/commercial work that aims to appeal to magazine editors/advertisers/agencies. Should your present modeling direction reflect my own, get in touch . . . ___________________________________________________________________
