Matt Dagley

Born and raised in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, Matt Dagley's passion for film and media was seeded at the end of high school when he boldly took to the internet to share his videos for the first time. The aspiring videographer would then go on to graduate the Film Production Program at Vancouver Film School, and soon achieved professional success writing, directing and editing works to be featured at worldwide festivals.

Now, with his years of experience and expertise in film, as well as a background in tourism and hospitality, Matt travels the Maritimes, highlighting special events with his award-winning videography company, Dagley Media. His ability to capture moments as they truly are, through an untainted lens, makes his work highly desirable for any occasion. Whether recording the true beauty and raw emotion of a wedding, or documenting on-the-scene details of a news story; if it's real, Matt Dagley's camera will catch and preserve the moment forever.
