Here are some nice things people have said to me. Apart from a few spelling corrections, I haven't edited them.

Putting this page together and seeing all of this in one place was an amazing experience for me:


"Hi Matt,

I can't begin to tell you how wonderful it was for me. I know I already told you this, but it can't be underestimated - your professionalism, level of comfort and openness were perfect. You really helped me to push myself in a way I hadn't previously and you made something daunting seem effortless...thank you."

...

"It was great to meet you too. Thank you so much, again, for making the shoot such a pleasurable experience--you really made me feel comfortable with something that is so out of character for me."

...

"I retrieved the photos from the lab over the weekend and I am as impressed as I was before... they are BEAUTIFUL! Thank-you so much!"

...

"OMG You are a genius!!!! I am so honored and impressed by these, omg! Wow, wow, wow. Such amazing work. Thank you so much, a thousand times. These are gorgeous. I am having a hard time comprehending that it's actually me in those photos, they look so good, lol. Thank you for doing it so quickly, too!!"

...

"I had a blast and I'm excited to see what came out of it in terms of pictures. I already know what I got out of it from the experience. Thanks again. I've written a lovely entry on my livejournal account telling people how much fun I had and how to get in touch with you. Hopefully, you'll get some calls. Thanks again!"

...

"Cool!!! They look great. I'm really pleased. Andy, my husband, thinks they look awesome too and wanted me to pass on his compliments."

...

"You are more than a professional photographer, you are a wizard with the camara. The pictures are the best pictures of us that I ever seen."

...

"I've never seen my wife acting so excited after seeing pictures of her, we both loved the pictures. It'll be a honor to pose for you again in the future."

...

"These are beautiful! The blacks are so deep and rich... definitely the look I wanted."

...

"If you've never posed nude before, then working with Matthew is the perfect place to start. Feeling uncomfortable at first is normal, but Matthew will put you at ease very quickly. He respects all boundaries and is very professional."

...

"I just got back from working on the Cape and saw the pictures. They are great! I am going to have a hard time deciding which ones I like. I'll get back to you as soon as I make up my mind. I never thought I could look like that. You did a wonderful job!"
