I have a very fun set of photos to share with you all today. Carissa, a senior at Wilson High School, walked into the studio looking for something "different." She also desired a dramatic style with a fashion flair. Carissa, you came to the right...
A couple weeks ago, I put out a call for super Seahawk fans, ages 3-7, to join me at Matty Photography studio to take some fun images paying tribute to our local Seattle Seahawks. An extra cheer, if you will, in the team's direction as...
What's the best Facebook message inquiry I've ever received? Easy, that'd be when Troy Nelson shot me a message a couple weeks ago requesting a Breaking Bad themed photo shoot. Um, yes please! I'm always looking for a reason to shoot fresh and conceptual ideas,...
A day of fun, a day of pampering, a day of celebrating your sexy. This last year brought its fair share of very hot shoots here at Matty Photography! There is no better time to live out that photo shoot you've always wanted to do....
This is my grandma, Leona. It feels weird saying her actual name - she's always been "Grandma" in my world. But for the sake of this post I'll break protocol and let that one slide, but just once. I've been fortunate enough to grow up...
Your attendance would be greatly appreciated January 24th at 8pm at the Matty Photography studio one-year celebration. Yep, that’s right, the new studio has been rocking for over a year now! It’s a night of good food, drink, and fun, as we thank all of...
Is your entire family Seahawk crazy? Have a child who loves to pretend they are a Seahawk super star? You are exactly what we are looking for! Matty Photography is looking for both boys and girls between the ages of 3 and 7, to come participate...
Rewind a couple months back, putting us back in prime Fall season, I had the pleasure of photographing a truly adorable family, the Sellers. We had some fun outside, capturing the growing family - Christine and Larry, along with son Gabe, and hiding there in...
The Upfront Theatre has been a regular client of mine for a number of years now. It is the heart of the comedy scene in the Bellingham area, an improv comedy theatre created and owned by one of the improv greats, Ryan Stiles. Though Ryan...
I got to spend a few hours with a batch of 80 kinders in the Yelm School District. Talk about amusing as all heck. It's an amazing age for kids as they are still anxious to please the adults in their lives. Translation - they'll...
Alrighty, on to batch numero dos of this 'Incredible' family recently photographed. If you are wondering why I'm saying the number 2 in spanish, you probably missed series 1 on the Incredible shoot, click here to view those and get up-to-speed on this entire shoot...
Yes, that's right, this'll be a two-parter. Too many great photos to share in one post, plus the fact that this shoot did indeed take place over two separate shooting days/concepts. When you locate a family who completely fits the bill for the entire cast...
Lord Of The Rings, Star Wars, X-Men, and Breaking Bad - what do all of these things have in common? Ross and Alex. Ok, I'll admit, everyone likes Breaking Bad, but Ross and Alex truly are two sides of the same coin. They both love...
Mid-late October was a foggy one around here in Tacoma. It was a thick fog that just never really went away for the better part of a week. Much like an overcast day, fog typically produces some pretty bland, grey photos without any lighting intervention....
There is nothing I enjoy more than capturing people doing what they love, whether that falls into the professional or personal categories. In Christian's case, it's the ball field. We gained access to his home field to make some memorable senior photos. Christian attends Emerald...
This sweet little 8 lb 1 oz, 20-inch long blessing was in the studio and we couldn't get enough. I always ask parents if I can keep their babies after I've fallen in love with them, having spent the last few hours with them, but...
A few things to celebrate today! This week marks the Matty blog's 5th birthday. Really hard to believe I've been mashing away on my keyboard, sharing my photo adventures for that long already. Over 300 posts, averaging a post every 5 days for 5 straight...

I wanted to share a fun story from yesterday's impromptu photo adventure, and perhaps an inspirational/motivational one for you photographers out there. Most of our shoots here at Matty Photography are highly conceptual - we know the exact location and composition we are shooting, the...
