ABOUT MATT
I am a California native living in Marin County with my wife and 4 year old daughter. I've lived all over California from L.A. to Santa Barbara to San Diego but I've called the San Francisco Bay Area my home since 2005.
I spend most my time working as a commercial photographer, shooting advertising and catalog work in SF, LA, NY and (sometimes if I'm lucky enough) abroad, and my personal work (when I have the time to create it) is narrative driven and filled with imagination and fantasy.
My hobbies include mostly wizardly pursuits like reading, writing music, planting edible gardens, road cycling through the West Marin countryside and playing D&D with my long established coven of nerd friends (yes, seriously).
I love to work and create and look forward to making something beautiful and meaningful together.
