For businesses and creatives needing to hone their story or camera skills, I offer private story and technical consultations. 

Currently, I tech filmmaking classes at Lynn University, but I also consult for production companies, producers, screenwriters, and businesses to help them hone their story skills and craft. 

I believe my university level material should be available to all who may be interested, which is why I offer private consultations to those wishing to invest in themselves. My goal is to make your philosophical statements into living and breathing dramatic stories.

Christin's Wedding Day

"We had the absolute pleasure of working with Matt for our wedding, and I truly can’t recommend him enough. From the moment he arrived, he brought such a calm, warm energy that immediately put us at ease—no small feat on a day filled with nerves and excitement! He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and it shows in every photo. The quality of his work is stunning—every shot feels natural, timeless, and full of emotion. Matt was not only incredibly professional but also kind and attentive throughout the entire process. We’re so grateful to have had him capture one of the most important days of our lives."

Andrea,  Barre Studio, Branded Content: Photo and Video

"From the moment you meet Matt, his presence speaks volumes—warm, grounded, and quietly confident. He has a rare gift: he sees you fully, and somehow makes you see yourself more clearly too. Being behind the camera with him doesn’t feel like performance—it feels like home. His calm direction and intuitive storytelling create a space where you feel both celebrated and at ease.

Matt has a way of capturing not just visuals, but soul. He doesn’t just film your studio—he tells its story to the world in a way that feels alive, authentic, and deeply human. Working with him has been a gift, and the way he brought the energy of our space to life was nothing short of magical.

Highly recommend for anyone ready to be seen, heard, and remembered in the most beautiful light."
