“More than just headshots. I create portraits with presence.”

About Matt Draper – Denver Headshot & Branding Photographer

Based in Denver, I create headshots and branding portraits for professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs who want standout images with presence and meaning.

I’m Matt Draper — a portrait photographer who believes the best images happen when people feel seen, not staged.

My sessions are relaxed and collaborative — designed to help you show up as yourself, whether you're rebranding, publishing, or simply ready for photos that reflect where you’re headed.
