The Team
Shane White
Founder
Shane is the founder of a software company and a popular wedding DJ company. Shane’s passion for The Match artist started when Nick shot some photos one night and suggested he uploaded them to Tinder. After many dates later, he had a girlfriend and thought he could be helpful to other guys in search of love and relationships. In addition to being full time at The Match Artist, Shane enjoys piloting his plane, and running every day of the week. He guarantees your experience with The Match Artist will be memorable.
Nick Friesen
Founder / Photographer
Nick ran a wedding and headshot photography company for years. He picked up a camera while studying piano performance in college and fell in love with portraits and facial expression coaching. Outside of coaching guys to look their best in photos, he enjoys coffee, playing piano, and spending time with his two dogs.
Nate
Photographer
Nate has been a professional photographer for over a decade now. He has a longstanding career in helping people gain newfound confidence while showing them a side of themselves they haven't seen before and in their very best light.

He always makes the most of every experience and is very effective and strategic while being personable in every sense, making for a great working relationship and report.
Shane
Photographer
Shane describes his photography experience as 'not even knowing how many years, since it's been that long.' He was the lead photographer for musician Marc Rebillet's recent tour and has shot portraits for a number of celebrities. We can't say who (thank you NDAs), but it's pretty notable.
