I will Boop the Snoot out of anything that'll let me do it!!! Allow me to introduce myself with some back story.
For those unaware, I'm Matty, the fella behind the camera of this operation. What lead me to creating an eagerness for photographing pets was the love that I had for my own. Matter of fact, this profile pic of this page is of Eli the Pooch, our amazing little bucket of love who happens to be my favorite tripod.
In 2014/2015 I began to dabble with photography while working with the surrounding landscapes that I live within and instantly fell in love with a craft that would forever change my life.
At that time I had an elder dog, named Lincoln Abraham who was my everything in a best friend. He was suffering from skin conditions and cancer eventually ended his long 13 or 14 year life of great times in 2018. I went everywhere with that pooch. He had friends even I was unaware of. What a duder.
It was hard on me as it would be anyone who had lost a soul who was a part of their every day's adventures for that long. What I realized then was I wish I had taken more photos of him. I had countless in my outdated phones, but I always wished I had a really nice portrait of him.
Fast forward to 2019 I had gotten very serious about this craft and was considering to go all in on building a business with the skills I had developed. Throughout the beginning years I tried a lot of different things in multiple industries with cameras and it eventually led me to working with pets. I still do many other things with my photography work, but the pet world is what tugs at my heart most.
The end of 2025 is here. I launched Boop Snoot Photoshoot in 2022/2023 and since then have found the thing that drives me most behind the camera. This was the thing that called to me throughout my developing years. This was the work that I found to be most rewarding in ways that I couldn't imagine.
In the end of 2023-2024 and up until a couple of months ago, I was pushing through some debilitating back injuries and had to put all of this on the back burner. For 9-10 months of this year I didn't take on a single job. In recent months my meds were adjusted and I've been in good enough shape to pick this back up and run with it within my limited abilities until my body tells me otherwise.
And THAT, my friends is why I'm really excited about the events we have in 10 days. I get to photograph a whole bunch of dogs with Santa and it's going to be so much fun!!
So there's a bit about me, but enough about me, these are some goats that our amazing friend and Veterinarian doctor Shannon Emmons owns and loves dearly. I'm in a beard growing competition with this one!
