Elopement near Salzburg with Isil & Frank

“Overwhelmed – touched – and still speechless… Dearest Mati, in addition to your expertise as a photographer, the shining magic, the warmth of your person and the passion for special photography are more than noticeable.”

– Isil & Frank from Germany
Island wedding in Indonesia with Biance & Graham

“Well where do we even begin. My wife found Mati through Instagram and it was right there and then that she made the decision that he would be our wedding photographer one day. She fell in love with his natural style and beautiful photography. She showed me his account and I too was immediately captivated. So we had the discussion and we said no matter what we are using him. From contact he was an absolute joy to converse with. We became friends very quickly. He was able to help us and fly all the way to Bali, Gili Gede and capture our iconic magical day. The photos he produced were breathtaking and every time we look at them it takes us back to the happiest day of our life. Thank you Mati for your incredible work and your friendship.”
