Beautiful moments, expertly captured

Hello, I'm Matt and I'm a wedding and commercial photographer based in Leamington Spa in the Midlands.

How it all began...

I started taking a more conscious view on photography whilst travelling the world, and loved it so much I decided to make it my profession. So I took a massive leap of faith and decided to do a BA Hons Degree at Plymouth University, and since then have gained valuable experience, and have worked for clients shooting weddings and commercial projects across the UK and abroad.

How I work

Professional, approachable and always looking for ways to deliver something truly striking. The combination of wedding and commercial work keeps me on my toes creatively speaking, meaning I can bring the best of both worlds together to deliver beautiful, contemporary photography that really captures the spirit of the subject.

Treat yourself to something different

Not only will you get a strong series of documentary style photos you'd expect from your wedding day photographer, but I will go that extra mile to bring a touch of magic to proceedings, with a little art directing, and a strong desire to make sure you both look and feel like superstars on your special day. Just as it should be.
But don't worry, I won't keep you away for hours, or boss you around. I fit in and around your day and your guests to give you a beautiful set of pictures that really capture the spirit of the day. Your day will be covered in a non-obtrusive manner and all the reactions of friends and family will be captured in a creative and natural way. Also all the little details from the bride's shoes to the table settings will be captured to show all the intricate detail that goes toward making your day that little bit extra special.

Commercial photography doesn't have to be boring or predictable

Interiors, editorial, corporate portraits... Whatever your brief, you can rest assured I will work with imagination and professionalism to deliver exactly what you need... Images that make your business, project or organisation shine.

Visual Impressions

It's difficult to sum up a person with just one picture. It's about getting to know the subject, building trust, displaying empathy, and making them feel relaxed, so that they reveal their true self, even if only for a split second. It's the little things – a tilt of the head, a wry smile, a piercing gaze – that truly communicate personality and connect the viewer with the subject.
