Matt Haines Photography

Matt took photos for my daughter’s preschool. They turned out great… he is a wonderful photographer. Ordering from his was easy and the prints were ready in a timely manner. All my interactions with him were positive and professional!

Beautiful preschool pictures of my 4 year old. Can’t imagine how he gets them to sit to still and perfect to get such great shots. Quick service too!

Matt is an amazing photographer and a pleasure to work with. He took gorgeous photos of our son who is 3 and is constantly on the go. I am amazed Matt was able to get the photograph and the smile! Well done! We recommend him highly and look forward to using him again in the future! Thanks, Matt!

Matt Haines has taken preschool portraits of both my boys. It is hard to choose which pictures you want to purchase because he connects with the kids and makes them comfortable and happy while sitting for their picture. His website is easy to order from and the final product arrives at the school. He is professional and responds quickly to any requests. I just received my photos and can not be more pleased with the results. He was able to capture both of my children’s personalities. I will look forward to buying more pictures from him next year when my younger son has his picture taken again!

Matt took pictures at my child’s local preschool. She came home that day telling us about how funny the picture man was. The pics are great, and you found a way to get 50+ preschoolers cooperate and smile. Thanks!

Matt did my son’s preschool pictures and they turned out better than I could have imagined! He did such a wonderful job in capturing my son’s smile and personality. Great job!

Matt has taken photos of my children each year at their preschool. We love them! We have purchased photos from Matt for the past three years. We especially love the sibling photos he has taken with our two sons. He is the first to capture the two of them smiling or laughing while looking at the camera.

It has been almost a year since my husband and I said, «I do.» Matt Haines was an essential part of our wedding, going above and beyond. He was consistent in his professionalism, punctuality, and thoughtfulness. Matt would arrive early to our meetings to scope out great photo opportunities. He would offer suggestions, but never intrude on our preferences.
Rather than incorporating a wedding planner into our wedding, Matt actually stepped in as coordinator, offering a detailed spreadsheet of the days activities. As the bride, I felt as though Matt cared for our wedding as much as his own.
Matt is very empathetic, resourceful, and has a great sense of humor. Regarding his photography skills, he is an absolute artist. Gabriel and I chose Matt because he uses real film rather than digital. He captured every detail, every emotion, and every Kodak moment. I honestly did not even see him at our wedding, I think he is half photographer, half ninja.
I highly recommend Matt Haines!

Matt is an excellent photographer and a pleasure to work with. He photographed our recent wedding in Ojai and we are just thrilled with the results. He is a great communicator and very professional – we felt like we were in good hands throughout the whole process. We chose him initially because he shoots on film – a rarity these days – and his photos have that extra creamy glow only possible on film. He also has a great sense of humor, as evidenced in his awesome photos of kids. We couldn’t be happier with our choice of wedding photographer.
