"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world."

  

I'm Mattie. 18 year old in North Carolina.

I am going to be attending Carteret Community College for two years to get an Associates in Photographic Technology. Hopefully, then transfer to a 4-year university.

I shoot in full manual and RAW on my camera (it presents its challenges).

I want to travel the world throughout my years of life, and I want to experience new things as often as I can.

I want to always express myself with art and keep up my motivation and passion.

Mattie has to be one of the sweetest girls I have ever met. She's so charming and witty and polite. Every single one of her comments makes me smile. Then you add on to that, the fact that she is an absolutely incredible photographer and... just... wow. She is so talented and amazing and she just keeps getting better, but she is still always so modest and sweet. Take a look at her stream. I swear to you, you will not be disappointed.
