About Me
I’m Mathew Whiting, a photographer with a passion for capturing real, raw moments, whether it's the focused stillness of wildlife or the intensity of a jiu jitsu match. Photography allows me to freeze time, tell stories through light and motion, and share the emotion behind every frame. I specialize in wildlife and jiu jitsu sports photography because both worlds demand patience, timing, and an eye for those fleeting, unforgettable moments.
Beyond the lens, I’m also on the mats. I train and teach jiu jitsu, which gives me a unique perspective when photographing the sport. I understand the energy, strategy, and emotion behind every roll, and that insight helps me capture more than just action—it helps me capture the feeling. Whether I’m behind the camera or in the middle of a round, I bring the same focus, creativity, and drive to everything I do.
