Hi there, I’m Matt Chasney. I’m a photojournalist, artist, and writer from Cleveland, Ohio. My work centers around the environment, politics, housing, class and all things Rust Belt culture. I hold a BA in History with a minor in Photography from Case Western Reserve University. My favorite things to photograph are factories, short track stock car racing, and foggy mountains.

I’m available for assignment anywhere in Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Eastern Kentucky.
