Linnea did an outstanding job capturing all our special moments at my Mom's 90th birthday celebration. I would highly recommend her and work with her for future events!

I had such an amazing experience working with Matea for my birthday photos! From beginning to end, she made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. She helped choose the perfect studio, which was beautiful and incredibly convenient for me, and she walked me through the entire shoot so naturally. I’m not someone who feels completely comfortable in front of a camera, but Matea made me feel confident, relaxed, and comfortable the entire time. She understood exactly what I wanted and truly brought my vision to life. I was also so impressed by how quickly I received my photos, the turnaround time was incredible, and the quality was absolutely stunning. They turned out exactly how I imagined, if not better! I’m extremely happy I chose Matea to capture my birthday pictures and couldn’t recommend her enough. I absolutely love the final result and already can’t wait to work with her again in the future. ❤️📸
The quality and artistic nature of her pictures brings the experience to life. I love her traditional artistic style.
I’m so glad I chose Mattea LinAe. She was warm, friendly, and made the whole experience easy and comfortable. The photos captured such beautiful, genuine moments, and I couldn’t be happier with them. I highly recommend her.
I LOVE MATTEA! She made me feel so comfortable and captured my vision perfectly. She was professional and knowledgable and made everything so easy. She was responsive and took the time to make sure she answered all of my questions. Will love to book with her again!
Mattea was absolutely amazing to work with!! My 18 year old daughter is beginning her modeling career, and after scanning various sites and considering hundeds of photographers we chose Mattea to shoot her for modeling agency submissions. My daughter loved the experience, professional atmosphere, energy, and the photos turned out incredible!! Great job Mattea!!!
Mattea is such a talented photographer. I would give her more than 5 stars if possible. She was friendly, punctual and professional. I was concerned about lighting as I have had previous bad experiences with photographers unable to adequately light my dark skin. Mattea was able to light me beautifully alongside my very fair-skinned husband. The photos came out amazing. I would highly recommend Mattea, her work speaks for itself!
Mattea was a delight to work with from start to finish. She provided really creative solutions to our photo shoot needs. We will be reaching out again for sure.
We hired Mattea for fit and lay-flat photos of apparel and are so happy with our choice! She was prompt and clear in her communication, arrived on time and was quick to set-up. Her work during the shoot was incredibly efficient and professional- and her amiable and laid back personality was a great fit for us and our client. We'll absolutely be asking her back!
My fiancee and I had never gotten professional pictures done before and were so nervous to take our engagement photos but Mattea changed all of that! She made us feel so comfortable and were so so happy with the way our photos turned out. Would definitely use her again and would recommend to any of our family and friends!
If I could leave more than 5 stars- I would. Her professionalism allowed for a productive and fun photo session. She was easy to connect with and created a very comfortable environment. She has a very artistic eye and she wants to make sure your vision comes to life. I would recommend working with her if you want to feel like a natural behind the camera! It was a great experience!
Professional fast response time.
I absolutely love working with Mattea. I am so happy with both my professional and family photos. Highly recommend and can't thank her enough. xxx
Mattea was absolutely amazing! She was quick to respond to all messages, understood exactly what we were looking for and she created absolutely beautiful images of our day!! Thank you so much!
We hired Mattea to photograph our micro wedding in Milwaukee earlier this summer. She produced so many beautiful shots of the venue, us getting ready, as a couple, family shots, the ceremony and so much more. Mattea was an absolute joy to work and is excellent at her craft, producing photographs that really capture the vibe and essence of any event and people. My husband and I were also very appreciative of her prep process which consisted of a phone call, questionnaire and in person walk thru. All in all we highly recommend Mattea for any of your photography needs!
Mattea did a great job taking pictures for my daughter’s baptism. Her work is clean and high quality. Our family portraits came out really nice. Mattea is a very nice person. She captures very special moments. I recommend her work.
Mattea was excellent to work with. She is professional, kind and responsive. Her work is absolutely incredible! I look forward to working with her again!
We absolutely LOVED with Mattea! She let our whole family be ourselves, have fun and just have a great time while we were shooting.
