After 15 years and 6000 assignments as a photojournalist with the Philadelphia Inquirer, as well as shooting for an eclectic array of commercial clients ranging from Comcast to Subaru, Cliff Mautner launched his wedding photography career. After over 1200 weddings, he still brings the same passion and intensity with him to each event with an emphasis on creating authentic moments in some of the most difficult light imaginable.

He’s also the father of identical twin daughters, Samantha and Alison.
