I love LUCY!

Laura and I decided to surprise some friends with photos of their beloved Golden Retriever Lucy! I love Lucy, i really do. This is some personal work for me, so I tried to push myself creatively not shooting for a client and all. Enjoy!

Senior Portraits: Nadia!

We had a great time creating some senior portraits for the coolest cat ever- Nads. The first day of shooting was done on location, with some less-than-ideal weather. It was kind of a challenge, but we made the best of the circumstances. The second day was studio shots all on the white seamless. It was tons of fun, and I really love a couple of the images.

2010 Seniors- its not to late to book a senior shoot with us! Shoot me and email at mattgold@bellsouth.net for more info.

Enjoy!

A complete redesign...

...all started with the first draft of my new awesome MOO business cards. My complete branding has been updated to hopefully a more professional, yet still clean and simple design. The first thing to change was the business cards. I went with MOO because they simply rock. The mini cards i think make for a more unique and hopefully memorable card, and of course they were much cheaper! The simplicity of the business card hopefully can be carried throughout my website and blog.


Branding is a facet of graphic design and photography that I am very interested in. It was good experience to practice on my own photography brand. One thing I strived to achieve was a sense of visual consistency throughout my web portfolio, blog, and forms of advertisement. I updated the blog and the website to match the design of the business card- not the normal design approach by all means, but it's how I got it done. Now I'm pleased with the visual consistency- hopefully one of elegant simplicity and maybe even a greater sense of professionalism if i'm lucky.

Let me know what you think of the new design!
