Matthew M.

Uitgelichte fotograaf in Minneapolis

I’m Matthew McIntosh, a Minnesota-based commercial photographer and “creative country boy”. I grew up wandering the dirt roads of Wyoming with my camera, using it as a tool to document a region of the country most people usually haven’t seen or really thought about. To me, it was magic and it was pure inspiration. During my professional time there, I worked 5 years as a videographer for NBC, using that experience to hone my visual storytelling skills while studying fine art photography. I eventually moved around the country from Wyoming to Colorado, Florida, Idaho, and New York City (part of being a Wyoming boy is having a healthy sense of wanderlust… it’s my inner roaming cowboy). Eventually, I ended up in Minneapolis, MN. After finishing my BFA in Photography at the Art Institute of Minnesota, my career in commercial/editorial photography began.

Wat vind je het leukst aan je werk?

There’s a unique kind of satisfaction in outmaneuvering time. My favorite part of this job is the hunt for that one split-second where everything aligns—the light, the story, and the emotion. Seeing a moment frozen in time never gets old; it’s like catching lightning in a bottle, every single time I press the shutter.

Welke soorten shoots heb je gedaan en hoe heb je ze speciaal gemaakt?

From portraits to products, I’ve shot a bit of everything, but what really makes a project special for me is the 'we' behind the work. I view every shoot as a partnership. There’s a specific kind of magic in collaborating with others—taking a shared idea and watching it come to life through the lens. To me, the connection behind the camera is just as important as the shot in front of it.
