MEET MATILDA.

Photographer based in Miami, Florida, documenting weddings throughout the United States and abroad for the past 5 years.

It was in my hometown of Cleveland, Ohio, working for my dad’s boutique photography studio, where I learned the intricacies of bespoke celebrations, and navigating the stylish and particular clientele that come with. My vision for telling these love stories with a distinct edge led me to start my own studio, founded on the principles of timelessness, beauty, and editorial portraiture. My style is heavily influenced by fashion in print and my travels. I have a sharp wit and a calm confidence; always leading with grace.

My work is rooted in my profound affinity for human relationships. Careful observation coupled with a trained eye results in work that can be described as timeless, honest, and beautiful.

My photographs resonate with the intentional couple, who cares deeply for editorial portraiture, romantic posing, and nostalgic color tonality.

When it comes to capturing life's most precious moments, Matilda is nothing short of extraordinary. Over the years, she has been there to document the milestones of my family's journey, and each time, she has exceeded our expectations! She has art to what she does and an ability to capture raw, authentic emotion. As a wedding planner for 10 years I appreciate her attention to details, this girl doesn't miss a beat! Her work is not just pictures but pieces of art that tell compelling stories.
**Wedding Photography** Matilda's talent shone brilliantly on our wedding day. Her ability to capture the genuine emotions, the laughter, and the subtle, intimate moments was remarkable. She was everywhere and nowhere at the same time, blending seamlessly into the background while capturing the essence of our celebration. The photos were not just pictures; they were a beautiful narrative of the most important day of our lives.
**Newborn Photos** When our little one arrived, we knew Matilda had to be the one to take the first photos. Her gentle and patient approach made the session so smooth, even with a fussy newborn. The photos are pure magic — delicate, tender, and so full of love. She has a true gift for capturing the innocence and beauty of a newborn.
**1st Birthday** As our daughter turned one, Matilda once again delivered beyond our expectations. The birthday photos are full of life and joy, capturing every smile, every playful moment. Her ability to engage with children and make them comfortable shines through in every shot.
**Overall Experience** Matilda's professionalism, creativity, and warm personality make her a joy to work with. She has an incredible eye for detail and a knack for making every photo tell a story. Her dedication to her craft is evident in the quality of her work and the consistent excellence she brings to every session. I wholeheartedly recommend Matilda to anyone looking to capture their most cherished moments. She is not just a photographer; she is a storyteller, and her photos are the beautiful chapters of our life's story. Thank you, Matilda, for preserving our memories so beautifully. We look forward to many more sessions with you!

I can't say enough great things about Matilda! She is so professional, super sweet, and made my fiancé and I feel super comfortable during our engagement shoot. We were so blown away by the pictures she took of us, that we hired her to shoot our wedding! She exceeded our expectations and was an absolute pleasure to work with.

-Hailey
Absolutely fantastic. We love our photos more than anything. She captured our day EXACTLY the way I envisioned and more. She was so easy to work with and made the day FUN. HIRE MATILDA!

-Sarah
Matilda truly went above and beyond to make my wedding a magical experience. She arrived well before my wedding began, helped me come up with a schedule so that everyone in my family felt as though they had their share of photos, and kindly walked me through the entire process. She took not only standard portraits but fantastic photos that proved she anonymously and quietly made her way around the dance floor and during our reception to capture incredible moments. In the end, there were so many photos that we loved that we couldn’t pick our favorites, and Matilda even supported us through that! I truly cannot recommend her highly enough.

-Alex and Adam
Matilda is professional, reliable and fun to be around. We felt like she posed us with ease and it didn’t even feel like we had to do anything other than follow her lead. We HIGHLY recommend her for couples who want a laid back vibe, with timeless photography to follow.

Yes. I love and encourage them for all of my couples, many of whom come to me with the classic fear of being photographed, nervous about looking “awkward” in their wedding photos. An engagement shoot can help alleviate that apprehension by giving us an opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper level, before the big day. Additionally, an intrinsic part of my work flow is conceptualizing the wedding before I even arrive. I peruse any and all information: mood boards you may have sent me, design decks from your planner, venue highlights, etc. When I arrive to your wedding, I already have a vision in my mind of how I will execute the photography. An engagement shoot provides the last missing piece for me to tell that story and serves as a beautiful way to commemorate this special time.
Yes! Wedding photography has taken me from my hometown of Cleveland, Ohio to Miami, Florida. I’ve since been lucky enough to have crossed Cartagena, Colombia off my list and can’t wait to add more destination weddings to my portfolio.
Your full collection will be ready in four weeks, and of course a sneak peak within a few days of the wedding. I am a perfectionist when it comes to color.
I prefer to work without a shot list. I have an ongoing comprehensive list that gets checked off throughout the day, so trust that I know all of the family formal combos like the back of my hand. I do always tell couples to inform me of any unique family dynamics I should know.
I’d love to meet. In person over coffee or a Zoom call. Wedding photography is deeply personal, and I like to set that precedent from the very beginning. Forming a relationship beyond photography with my couples is very important to me. We will talk about how you met, your vision for photos, and all things wedding. Leading up to the day and throughout the planning process I like to be involved! Timeline advice, styling tips, etc. I’m always available to share my expertise. My clients treat me as a friend and confidante. By the time your wedding day comes, you will feel at ease in front of my camera. You may be surprised; dreamy portraiture that feels magical and romantic won’t be so daunting at all.
