Matt Chesebrough Photography

This is more than a photograph. It is a reminder of the night that I learned the difference between approaching photography as an amateur versus a professional.⁠

That night at Mono Lake was a technical disaster until one breakthrough moment. I'm breaking down the three critical mistakes I made and detailing the specific, professional-level approach I now use to ensure a successful night shoot. ⁠

Happy Tuesday y'all,
I really enjoy getting up before dawn to see the start of a new day. On this particular morning, I was able to capture the sun shining through the branches of this Oak tree in one of California's amazing state parks.

Where do you like to watch the sunrise?

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve received an invitation to participate in the Santa Clara Art & Wine Festival on September 13th and 14th! During this two-day event, I’ll be showcasing pieces from my portfolio that highlight the stunning natural landscapes of California. Swing by my booth to chat about photography, hear the stories behind my pieces, purchase some artwork, or just come by to say hello!

I can’t wait to connect with you.

Happy New Year's Eve!

May this last day of 2024 allow you to reflect on the year and focus on the blessings in your life.
