My condolences for Charles Matter's passing. Charles was so patient with me and professional during my initial portfolio he did of me some time ago in 2001 when I was quite shy and since has gone missing. He will be in my prayers and considered such a one of a kind Artist.
With Love,
Lauren Murphy

Hello everyone, my condolences.
I tried to book Charles today, only to find he had passed. As a Broker at Corcoran where I first met Charles, I had my most successful year in 2017. Charles was the guy taking the shot. When I moved to Compass he was the one who took the shots for my first few listings there. We would always talk about the art of photography, and I would eventually get a camera, and lens just like him, in hopes to be half as good as him.
This was really sad news for me to hear today, and I'm still choked up a bit, as he was more than just a photographer that I used. We shared laughs, cursed a few people's name in jest, and i considered him a friend. Sleep in peace Charles.

I just found out about his passing. Charles was a great guy and I miss him already. We weren't very close but I saw him every week for a few minutes and we would chat about photography etc. Does anyone know what happened with his dog? I would adopt him if possible. [email protected]

Charles - I found a story I wrote in 1965 that memorialized the time I twisted my ankle coming off the rope tow at Mt. Baker and you helped me up out of the snow. Thinking of you. Laura
