Blog post about a shoot I did last summer

A little bit of horn-tooting here, I hope you don't mind.
I did a shoot for Cinch Jeans last summer using my K-1 and 645D and they just put up this blog post about it.
It was a fun shoot and although I'm definitely not a cowboy, it was interesting to immerse myself into that scene for a few days. We made some images I'm very happy with that I'm dying to see in show up in future campaigns. Hopefully I can land more of this kind of gig!

Fantastic, Matt! You got a commercial engagement and I read had a go at being a stunt double too!

Thanks! Maybe not so much of a stunt double but getting the shot from within the action. It was fun! The other photographer flat out refused to get on a horse!

What a great experience,thanks for sharing it with us Matt.

What an excellent result, Matt. The article is great, and the photography even better. Really impressive work... I'd be very surprised if this doesn't lead to further engagements. Congratulations!

Thanks, I hope it will lead to more! It was fun and it actually paid a good rate but I've already blown my profits traveling to Africa so I need these to keep coming to support my adventures!

Consider it an investment, Matt

Great job Matt. Hope you get a lot more of these types of assignments. Your pics remind me of campaigns for L.L. Bean and Columbia. Something magical and earthy about your pics.

I could not help but to share this line from the blog: Nola commented, "I can’t thank the CINCH team enough. These (pictures) sure touch my heart, because when I look at the photos, I see our lives. It makes my heart happy." Wow. Matt, when your subject talks about your photos like this it mean the world... at least it does to me.

Great images ! I sincerely hope these will bring you some shooting opportunities.

Enjoyed that a lot. Great pictures. I wish they were separate in the blog. One of my favs is the woman looking at her horse in the rain and i don't like the man's hat dissappearing into her. The lasso one would benefit from space too like the fly fishing has, also favs.

**mattb123** · 01-23-2018, 04:30 PM

Thanks! Only some of those are mine. The ones with added vignette were shot by Benjamin, the staff photographer at Cinch. Most of his shots were done with a Nikon body and a 70-200/2.8.
The fishing shot was mine, K-1 and D FA 15-30.

wstruth · 01-23-2018, 07:33 PM

That is so cool! Congratulations!

Really great. I honestly enjoyed the pictures - looks very alive, I would say. Congratulations.
