A Look Back at 2025

As we look back on 2025, I feel incredibly grateful.

This year was filled with growth, creativity, and connection, capturing meaningful moments with families, couples, and seniors through photography, while also helping clients discover the confidence and joy that comes from personalized color analysis.

I’m excited to share some highlights from the year and a look at the offerings I’ll continue (and grow!) in 2026.

I can’t wait to create more memories and help even more clients feel confident and radiant in the year ahead.

Surprise Proposal at Edison Ford Estates | Tyler + Rebecca

Tyler planned the sweetest surprise proposal for Rebecca at the Edison & Ford Winter Estates during Holiday Nights—a place that’s been part of their holiday tradition for years. What Rebecca thought was just another festive evening strolling through the glowing gardens quickly turned into a moment she’ll never forget. Surrounded by twinkling lights and historic charm, Tyler got down on one knee and asked Rebecca to spend forever with him. Congratulations to these two!

Emmy | Fort Myers Senior Session

I had such a wonderful time photographing Emmy for her senior session. Emmy is the daughter of a friend I used to work out with, and it was so special to reconnect and capture this exciting milestone for her.

She envisioned tall grass for her photos — something natural, timeless, and a little dreamy — and we found the perfect spot bathed in golden light. The way the sun filtered through the grass created the most magical backdrop, and Emmy absolutely glowed.

Maya | Fort Myers Beach Senior Session

I had the pleasure of photographing Maya, a high school senior visiting from Michigan, during her vacation in sunny Southwest Florida. Her natural style and easygoing personality made every shot a joy to capture on the beautiful shores of Fort Myers Beach.

If you’re looking for a senior photographer in Fort Myers or planning your own beach senior session, this location offers stunning sunsets and a relaxed, coastal vibe—perfect for creating timeless senior portraits.

Wishing Maya all the best as she heads into her senior year!

Color Analysis at Ferguson Showroom: A Fort Myers Experience


Last week, I brought the magic of color analysis to the gorgeous Ferguson Showroom in Fort Myers, FL for a special pop-up event with their interior design team. With my mother-in-law by my side, we helped each designer discover their seasonal color palette and how to use it to elevate their personal and professional style. It was such a fun blend of fashion, function, and a whole lot of fabulous color!

What to Wear: Color Inspiration for Family Photos

Family photos capture beautiful memories, but choosing what to wear can feel overwhelming. The right color palette can make your photos look cohesive, flattering, and timeless. As a photographer and color analyst, I help families select colors that complement their natural tones and the photo setting. Coordinating outfits doesn’t mean everyone has to match exactly! A well-thought-out color scheme:

1. Starts with One Main Color
Instead of trying to match everyone exactly, pick one main color as the foundation. This could be a shade that complements your location (e.g., soft blues for the beach, earthy tones for fall).

2. Builds a Coordinated Color Palette
Once you have a main color, add two to three complementary shades that balance the look.

3. Consider the Season & Location
Your color choices should align with the setting. Light, airy tones work well for the beach, while rich, earthy hues are perfect for a fall backdrop.

4. Mix Patterns & Textures
To add visual interest, mix solid colors with subtle patterns (like florals, plaids, or stripes). Just avoid large logos or busy prints that can be distracting.

5. Coordinate Without Matching Exactly
Gone are the days of everyone wearing the same white shirt and jeans (and if you are looking for that type of session, I am probably not your photog)! Instead, aim for a cohesive look where each family member’s outfit complements the overall palette while reflecting their personality.

Another tip… No matter how beautiful the color scheme, if you or your family members don’t feel comfortable, it will show in the photos! Make sure everyone feels great in their outfits.

Molly and Matt Photo now offers personalized color analysis services in Fort Myers, Florida, to help you select the perfect color palette for family photos. Discover the best colors that complement your skin tone and match your photo setting, taking the stress out of outfit planning and allowing you to focus on creating lasting memories!

Baby Adams Adoption Fundraiser

Thrilled to support my friend Jenna and her husband, Bryson, as they raise funds to adopt a baby! Believe it or not, domestic adoption costs can range between $45,000- $75,000+. Although I did not have money to donate to their fund, I did have time and talent and offered to do mini sessions in Jenna’s parent’s back yard for their network of friends. We raised $1,000!

Sharing sneak peeks of some of our fav images from the six families who helped with the cause. Learn more about the Baby Adams Adoption fundraiser here.

Addison- Fort Myers Beach Senior Session

Addison has vacationed in Fort Myers since she was in elementary school. A native of Minnesota, she wanted palm trees, sunshine, and sandy beaches to commemorate her senior photos. Naturally, it made sense to schedule a senior portrait session during her recent vacation to SWFL with her mom. Addison was an absolute delight to work with and is beautiful inside and out! We can’t wait to share a sneak peek of her session at the Alliance for the Arts and Bowditch Point Beach with Molly and Matt Photo.

Surprise Memorial Day Nuptials | Fort Myers, FL

Mark and Alicia really wanted to do something unique and different for their friends and family. Weddings can be a lot of stress on everyone involved and they were looking to do something fun and relaxed.

Solution… A pool party for 70 of their closest friends and family. Surprise Memorial Day Nuptials!

Mark and Alicia have been dating for 7 years so most people weren’t expecting them to ever get married. The couple loved giving people an unforgettable experience and getting to see the shock and happiness on their faces (as you will see in the photos).

Fun fact- They almost got married in their bathing suits but thanks to the advice of several of Alicia’s friends, they decided to do casual outfits to stand out from guests and make it feel more special.

It was a honor to attend and photograph the surprise.

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Shannon!
