Hello and thanks for stopping by! You have have reached the blog site for Matthew Moses Photography.
Matthew is a freelance photographer based out of Duluth, Minnesota, covering many genres, with many passions. From amazing stars at night, fast sports action, the landscapes around us, family portraits, and the intimate moments during weddings, I work to deliver the photos that capture the memories unfolding before me.
Additionally, I shoot short video projects for breaking news, business videos, and working on documentaries while also doing editing in Final Cut Pro.
