CINEMATIC. HONEST. INTENTIONAL. 

I care deeply about crafting an experience that feels personal, grounded. The best moments happen in the in-between spaces. When the focus is on documenting that slow, deep breath before the ceremony. The hand squeeze during the vows. The intimate kiss when the sun sets. My approach is built around documenting those moments honestly while creating imagery that still feels cinematic, intentional, and deeply connected to the people living it.

I am genuinely glad you found your way here.

I’m Matt, a Kansas City wedding photographer documenting celebrations locally, across the U.S., and abroad. With seven years behind the camera, I’ve always believed wedding photography should feel personal and centered around the people actually living it.

That’s why I built Cinder & Ivory. From destination weddings in Italy and Northern California to elevated venues throughout downtown Kansas City and the Crossroads, every wedding is approached differently because every couple moves through the world differently.

We stay human through all of it. We laugh, tell bad jokes, calm nerves, and create cinematic, editorial imagery without losing the honest heartbeat of the day.

it's time to tell your story

Your wedding day moves fast. One minute you’re getting ready with your people, the next you’re halfway through the dance floor wondering where the hell the night went. So the memories of that day matter. My goal is to document it in a way that feels honest, intentional, and fully connected to the experience itself, so years from now your photographs still feel alive when you look back at them.

If that sounds like the kind of experience you’re looking for, I’d love to hear what you’re planning. Head over to the inquiry page and tell me a little about your day.

We only take on a handful of weddings each year so that we give our full attention to our couples as we craft their experience.
