“Living The Dream!”

My name is Matthew Cotter… I’m a Wedding Photographer, Husband, Lighting Director, a Lover of Life and I’m living my dream. I think I’m the luckiest guy in the world. It may sound a little cheesy, but it’s true.

I love my wife Courtney like crazy. She keeps me laughing, keeps me in check, she reminds me it’s ok to dream big and work towards my goals.I look forward to the time I get to spend with her and am excited for this journey we are on together in this crazy game called life.

During my college years when my friends were hanging out at the beach, I spent my summer’s touring with bands such as No Doubt, Mary J Blige, 98 Degrees,  The Eagles, Metallica and a host of others. In more recent years, I’ve been fortunate to work on television shows, feature films and be a a part of the Creative Team of some of Disney’s biggest Spectaculars. These opportunities have taken me to Paris, Florida, Hong Kong, Tokyo and of course, right here in my own backyard – Southern California.

My life is everything I’ve always wanted to do, and everything I’ve ever dreamt of, and who knows what will happen next.  I anxiously look forward to continue my pursuit of photography,  storytelling and my own journey of life with Courtney.

I want to know who you are, did you find my blog? Are you looking for a photographer? Shoot me an email, add me on FaceBook… I’d love to chat with you!

Cheers!
