Matthew Carlin
A creative eye for the bigger picture.
I'm Matthew Carlin, an Austin-based multimedia specialist, visual storyteller, and creative behind the camera. With 8+ years of experience in digital media, content creation, and brand storytelling, I bring ideas to life through photography, videography, and digital strategy.
​
My approach to creative media goes beyond simply making things look good. I believe great visual content should tell a story, capture attention, and give people a reason to connect with a brand. From concept to creation, I work across the entire creative process, developing ideas, directing productions, capturing content, and bringing everything together through thoughtful editing and design.
​
Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to create content for a diverse range of brands and organizations, including University of Texas Athletics, Austin FC, Do512, and Texas State University Athletics. My experience spans commercial production, branded photography and video, social media strategy, digital advertising, and website content management. Whether it's producing a campaign, building out a social media presence, or creating visual assets for a brand's digital ecosystem, I enjoy finding creative ways to make an impact.
​
Originally from the Austin area, I've always been inspired by the city's creative culture, independent spirit, and thriving music scene. That passion initially led me into music photography and digital media, where I spent years documenting artists, live performances, and the culture that makes Austin unique.
​
Today, I bring that same creative energy into everything I do. I'm a firm believer that strong visuals are at the heart of great branding, and I love helping businesses turn their ideas into content, experiences, and identities that stand out.
When I'm not creating something, you can probably still find me at a concert, camera in hand, somewhere around Austin.
