About us


Welcome to mud & magnolia. We are husband and wife and proud parents to a very sweet little girl and a smiley baby boy. One of the many things that brought us together was our appreciation for art and design. Stef enjoys photography and home decor while Matt loves pottery, plants and building cool stuff.

Stef graduated from Brainerd High School and has a degree in Elementary Education. Her love for children, along with her creativity and passion for design, has led her to pursue her dream of becoming a children and family photographer. Stef also enjoys reinventing vintage items and creating unique home decor and personalized gifts.
Matt took his first pottery class at Brainerd High School and continued studying potterywhile attending St. John's University. It has become a hobby he is very passionate about. He enjoys playing around with new forms and designs and making continuous improvements. Matt works as a landscaper and enjoys designing outdoor spaces, building furniture for indoors and out, and creating other one of a kind items.
