Hi, I'M MATI
Thank you for being here, I hope you and your family are safe and sound during these times.
That being said, my name is Matias (Mati). I'm Chilean
with roots in the PNW. I'm all about coffee, old fashion doughnuts, stand up paddling and exploring the Pacific Northwest. I used to be an avid climber and an adventure guide in Chile and British Columbia. Now I'm a full-time photographer, based in Tacoma - Seattle who loves getting outside with my family and my camera whenever I can.
THE EXPERIENCE
If there's anything I've learned throughout my working life it's the importance of service. Working in tourism and hospitality made me always plan ahead, look for potential problems and how to get through them.
I'm committed to capturing you and your partner's milestone moments-from engagement to expecting your first. As I photograph a couple along their path, I honor that every couple's story is unique.
MY APPROACH
Is a mix of organic and visual storytelling portraits that let you be yourself. I am passionate about creating authentic photographs for you and your partner that are going to bring back memories throughout your life.
Don't worry about being awkward or not knowing any poses. If there is anything I'll tell you to do is just to be yourself!

FROM MY CLIENTS
" 10/10 would recommend hiring Matías to photograph your wedding/elopement/whatever event. He is very communicative, upfront and clear about his pricing and what that includes, is very personable, and takes great photos! Because of covid, we were unable to take unmasked photos inside our church, and as we were getting married in December (in Seattle!), we had multiple scenarios laid out for what would happen given different weather circumstances. It turned out that our day was miraculously clear skied and sunny, so much so that I was worried that the light would be too harsh for the photos. I shouldn't have worried though - we got our photos back from Matías in just a few weeks, and when we got them, they were so great! From the portraits before the ceremony to the cozy intimate reception at my in-laws' home after, every photo captures the love and beauty of the day and we're going to cherish these photos forever. "
