Matlai Photography

I don't even know where to start in expressing my gratitude, adoration, respect, and awe for Rose and her work. We more than lucked out when we discovered Rose. Rose's calm demeanor, documentary-inspired approach to photography, and her endless enthusiasm for her people is infectious. She helped find vendors, Airbnbs, and even told us what to pack. All throughout our planning process, she was in lockstep to make sure we didn't leave anything out and that we would have the perfect day. She did a ton of research and identified an affordable water taxi in Seward to take us to what turned out to be a nearly private island. She organized our vendors to facilitate transport of my bouquet and cake from Anchorage to Seward. And throughout our whole day, she provided a steady presence that helped calm my nerves while at the same time being the ultimate hype woman. She captured our whole day beautifully and looking at our photos transports us back to the sights and feelings we had on our wedding day. I am so glad that we found Rose, who turned out to be not just the ULTIMATE photographer and elopement planning partner, but also an awesome person and dear friend. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU <3
