Good photographers take good photos.
Great photographers craft the images that live in your memory forever.
Thank you for visiting my page. I am the World Famous-ish Matthew J. Capps, a highly experienced and very skilled, full-time professional photographer, (with an unmatched humility and obvious sense of humor) based in Ohio. You might know me as @SpicyFotoGuy on social media. First, let me say thank you for your interest in working with me! Whether you’re an experienced model or new to the industry, I appreciate your time and curiosity about my photography. I’m always looking for motivated, creative, and collaborative individuals who want to be part of something unique and visually striking.
If you’re not already familiar with my work, I shoot nearly every style imaginable—from soft and ethereal to hard and gritty, adapting my approach to fit the mood, energy, and concept of each session. My toolbox includes the latest technology, from underwater cameras and drones to 360-degree setups and even a stereoscopic 3D camera rig. This all allows me to capture cutting-edge visuals that push creative boundaries. No matter the project, my goal is to create a comfortable, professional, and inspiring environment where models feel confident and valued. If you're interested in collaborating, I’d love to hear from you and explore what we can create together!
Models.

Professionalism.
As a photographer, professionalism is my top priority—ensuring a comfortable, respectful, and well-organized experience for every model. From clear communication and detailed planning to a safe and creative environment, I make sure every shoot is both enjoyable and efficient. Models receive high-quality, fully edited images with no watermarks, giving them complete freedom to use their photos as they wish. Additionally, I maintain a transparent approach, outlining all details in a straightforward contract, so there are no surprises. Whether you're experienced or new to modeling, you can trust that my sessions are professional, fun, and focused on bringing out your best.

Experience.
With over 30 years of photography experience—nearly 20 of them as a professional—I have mastered the art of light and shadow, ensuring stunning results in any lighting condition. Whether working with natural light, artificial setups, or off-camera flash, I have the skill to shape and control illumination for the perfect mood and composition. My images are always razor-sharp where they should be and beautifully soft where they shouldn’t, bringing out the best in every subject. This precision and expertise have led me to work with businesses, magazines, and online publications, consistently delivering high-quality visuals that meet professional standards. No matter the setting or challenge, I have the technical know-how to create striking, dynamic, and visually compelling images.
-
Collaboration.
Collaboration is at the heart of every great photoshoot. I believe in creating a dynamic, creative partnership where both the photographer and model bring ideas to the table to produce stunning, unique images. Whether you have a specific vision in mind or want to explore new concepts together, I encourage open communication and a shared creative process. My goal is to highlight your individuality while ensuring an exclusive, refined, and unforgettable experience. When we collaborate, it’s not just about taking photos—it’s about crafting something truly exceptional together.
Current Project:
I’m seeking models to participate in my behind-the-scenes instructional series, where I teach photographers the art of capturing compelling and professional imagery across a variety of styles. These shoots focus on boudoir, body paint, fine art nudes, and explicit nudes, each with its own unique artistic and technical approach.
Boudoir sessions explore confidence and sensuality through lingerie, sleepwear, and tasteful implied nudity, while body paint transforms the human form into a vibrant canvas, showcasing bold colors and intricate designs. Fine art nudes emphasize shape, texture, and the beauty of light and shadow in a timeless, artistic manner, whereas explicit nudes take a more raw and unfiltered approach, focusing on the intimacy and intensity of the human experience.
Every session is conducted in a safe, professional, and respectful environment, with clear communication about expectations and image use. Models will receive a gallery of high-resolution, expertly edited images, and full rights to use said images for both portfolio and commercial (OnlyFans, Patreon, Etc.) use. Unlike some other photographers, my turn around for galleries is measured in hours and days, not weeks and months. All details will be fully outlined and agreed upon before each shoot.
