Hey, my name is Mattie Gilligan

Central Florida WEDDING AND LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER

I’m a proud mother, wife, registered nurse, and—above all—a child of God. Photography began as a way to preserve my daughter’s childhood, inspired by the heirloom images from my own upbringing. Today, I specialize in weddings, families, maternity, engagements, and portraits—capturing meaningful moments that will be cherished for generations. My work is rooted in faith and guided by 1 Corinthians 10:31. Through Imago Dei, meaning “the image of God,” my mission is to capture the beauty of His creation.

A Note From Me 🤍


Your wedding day is more than a timeline of events—

it's a living, breathing story of covenant, joy, and sacred beginnings.

The quiet glances.

The way your hands find each other.

The presence of the people who have prayed you here.

These are the moments worth remembering.

My heart behind Imago Dei Images is simple: to document your story with honesty, warmth, and intention—

so that years from now, you don't just see your wedding...

you feel it.

The Experience 🌿


Working together is meant to feel effortless and personal.

From the moment you inquire, I walk alongside you—

helping build a photography timeline, guiding you through natural posing,

and creating space for genuine moments to unfold.

You don't have to perform.

You just have to be present.
