Back in the day, I studied photojournalism at the University of Missouri and worked for some newspapers. Now, I mostly work for magazine, corporate, advertising and non-profit clients.

Morgan Ione

Captivated by shadows and slices of light. Drawn to vibrant colors and moments of calm. Curious for context, connection, and humanity. A seeker of balance and the organic beauty that is found in imperfection. Always aiming to create images that provide a unique experience and engage your senses. Believer in quality over quantity. Combining my own attributes and technical skills, I help brands tell their distinct narrative, establish their visual identity, and create memorable content for all usage and platforms. My clients span commercial, editorial, restaurant, boutique hospitality, travel, luxury residential, publishing, B2B, B2C, D2C, and startup brands. A storyteller at heart, I sometimes also contribute the written word to editorial stories that I shoot. I earned my degree in Journalism from Boston University, and Editorial and Advertising Honors from The New England School Of Photography. I feel fortunate to have created a way to combine all the things I love into an exciting and fulfilling career. Different projects call for different levels of production – I have an extended network of producers, video crews, food stylists, prop stylists, studios, creative directors, and graphic designers that help to make every shoot a perfect success. While currently growing roots in Chicago, I also have a strong client base in New York City where I spent the first ten years of my career and established myself in the creative community.

Matthew Franklin Carter

I’m southern and have the manners, drawl and pocket knife to prove it. I’ve been married for 20 years to my wife Carla, an amazing graphic designer who lets me have a desk around the corner and up the hall, just far enough away to drown out my bad singing and constant desk drumming. We have a 14-year-old daughter named Scout. She is the coolest person I’ve ever met. She’s an up and coming singer/songwriter and plays the upright bass, guitar, and the ukulele. She’s kind of a big deal. We also have a 2-year-old manchild named Charlie. To date, he’s proven to be really good at disturbing the peace and entertaining. I’ve been a drummer for 30 years or so and an embarrassment to guitarists for almost as long. I don’t leave home without my waders and fly rod. You never know where a creek may present itself in my part of the country. I love being in the woods and on the water. Whether I’m chasing fish, deer, birds or just hiking and camping, it’s the place I most want to spend my time.
