Bringing a passion to life

In the words of the Founder, Matthew De Castro

  • The name itsbymdc carries my initials, but the β€œby” is what matters most. It’s a reminder that what I create is for others, made by me, but inspired by you.

    But to me, itsbymdc isn’t just a name or a brand; it’s a reflection of connection. It’s about collaboration, trust, and creating something that goes beyond visual. Something that captures feeling, meaning, and identity. It’s about making sure the work we build together speaks to who you are, not just what you do.

  • It’s more than just taking photos or filming. For me, it’s about taking the opportunity to carry memories, stories, and meaning beyond the frame. Whether it’s a portrait, an event, or a creative idea, I want to help capture that.

  • I believe every project is unique, and it all begins with a conversation.

    You share your vision, your timeline, and your ideas. From there, I work alongside you: planning, shooting, and creating, to bring those ideas to life in a way that feels genuine and true to you.

    For me, this journey isn’t about perfection; it’s about growth. Every project, production, and shoot is an opportunity to learn, to evolve, and to create something meaningful. My focus will always be on capturing and telling stories that matter, whether it’s for one person, a community, or the world around us.

    That’s also why I don’t share a set price list. Every project deserves its own focus, its own attention, and its own approach, shaped by the story we’re telling together.

  • Because I believe stories deserve to be remembered. When the opportunity arises to freeze a moment in time, I will. This is my way of learning, growing, and giving people something they can hold onto long after the moment has passed.

Field Notes

Field Notes β€” is where I share the stories behind the camera, the lessons, experiments, and little discoveries I make along the way.

It’s part journal, part behind-the-scenes, and part creative notebook. From moments that inspire me, to insights I’ve picked up while shooting, this is the space where I put down thoughts that don’t just live in a frame but grow into something bigger.

The Morning That Start It All

β€œThrough photography, film, and creative planning, I really wanna work to capture the essence of stories, the identities, expressions, and emotions that live beyond the frame.”

β€” Matthew De Castro, Creative Producer
