The Ellises

A documentary photo series by Matt Ellis

A behind-the-scenes look at the life of Devale and Khadeen Ellis — partners in marriage, parents of four, and artists navigating life on their own terms.

Shot with documentary eye, the series follows their life intimately without performance, just presence. From film sets to family dinners, Sports practices to red carpets, this is about building something big while holding tight to what matters most.

Images created by Matt Ellis using Leica M, Q, and SL camera systems.
