About Me

Allow Me To Introduce Myself

Well for starters I'm Matt

As in Matt of Matt's Video & Photo Experience. I'm a photographer and videographer as well as your editor, lighting expert, tech guru, and the millions of other things you never realize you have to become when you get into this sort of stuff. Shooting for people like you is something I've come to greatly enjoy. Originally I had other goals and aspirations from starting my own business but what drew me into starting one is the authenticity of it. Being able to go out and meet all sorts of people who you never knew before and then have all sorts of great experiences together while making new friends is one of the best things you could hope to have as your means of living. And being able to see others peoples thrilling excitement with the results I produce is what makes it all worthwhile.

What Is The MVP Experience?

The MVP Experience is something I put together back when I was still brainstorming what to call myself. I've never been a fan of the [insert name] photography naming scheme where you also put your name in some fancy cursive font. But I did still want my name in it someway. At the time I was also currently shooting a lot of sports action photography, which I still am, and so I wanted something with a bit of a sports vibe. Low and behold the first letter of my name along with the first letter for "video" and "photo" all perfectly lined up into MVP. So it's a dual purpose acronym giving me Matt's Video & Photo and Most Valuable Player. Now to make a long story short it had to be MVP or The MVP Something. It couldn't just be nothing. And so I landed on Matt's Video and Photo Experience because when abbreviated I want to give you The MVP Experience.

What makes you the MVP?

This is something I strive to accomplish and expand on with everything I do. It's not easy to do because there's always someway to push my service forward. But to keep is simple here are some things I do.

Firstly I want to make you feel like the MVP because you get someone that works harder. When I show up I'm looking to work and capture the best images and video possible. Phone time is heavily limited to just trading contact info and showing you my other work if it comes up.  I'm there to shoot and be present not let my mind wander and wish I was somewhere else. Because when I'm shooting I'm exactly where I wish to be.

Staying creative and on edge for what I can do different is what keeps it all going.  Bringing creativity into my work is what allows me to give you something special that you won't get anywhere else. And furthermore I'm always happy to work with you to bring out your creative ideas too.

Lastly part of the process is just having lots and lots of fun. The people I shoot have the most fun when the photographer knows how to mesh and get along with everyone. So being social and not afraid to work the crowds is key to everyone having a great time on camera and the best part of the job.
