Matt played an invaluable role in the project with his focus, communication, and final results. A pleasure to work with and highly recommended.

— SK, Omar Farid Project

Our historical society had collection of 6,000 19th century glass plate negatives which had never been printed or digitized…Matt was extremely easy to work with, entirely professional and it was a great solution to our needs.

— RK, Southern Oregon Historical Society

Matt helped us share our commitment to local service, and our strong connection to our community, with enduring and compelling imagery.
