More about Matt W....

What do you love about your job?

I love to meet people and find out what they do, or hear them tell a story about their life. That's my main motivator for staying in the business, in an environment where there are so many photographers out there. I also love the outdoors and nature, and photography allows me to capture the beauty of it - even when it may not necessarily be the subject I'm shooting.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

I've done solo and family portraits, in addition to years of shooting other subjects. One of my favorite shoots was with a mom and her young child. I had an idea of what I wanted to do, but her son just had a ton of energy that day and things didn't go according to plan. It ended up kind of being a casual shoot with the mom playing with the kid (while he exhausted himself). As much as I was looking for that set pose, some of the best shots were just taken purely of the fun that was going on.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

As an automotive photographer, I was embedded heavily in the industry and a lot of my images would be featured in other publications and websites.

A fun fact about this photographer

I am an aviation geek and an avid bass fisherman.
