MATT'S CHICAGO STUDIO
Matt's stunning live/work location tucked into East Ukrainian Village offers beautiful natural light indoors and out for creating gorgeous portraits of your Senior.

ANYWHERE IN OPRF
Just because he moved to the City, doesn't mean he's abandoned his roots in Oak Park & River Forest. Whether at your home, one of the many parks (Lindbergh is great!), or Thatcher Woods, Matt will capture a variety of great photos of your son or daughter.

ON LOCATION
From the Chicago River Walk to the lakefront to a favorite city park, there's nothing like the energy of photos taken with the beautiful city as a backdrop. We'll shoot almost anywhere it's legal within a 5 mile radius of Ashland & Chicago.
