Matt has a very relaxed but professional approach to his work. When I was searching for a suitable photographer who could provide me with some studio images I was hard pushed to find a better choice in terms of locality and value for money. Matt offers so much more than most photographers. His knowledge and experience in the modelling industry is invaluable. Matt’s studio is spacious with clothes rail, a private area for changing, dressing table and mirrors which was ideal. He offers other locations locally to enable a wide range of shots. I was very at ease with Matt and did not feel rushed or uncomfortable in any way. He has carefully selected and edited quite a number of fantastic shots, providing plenty of choice. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting some great photos, especially with a view to breaking into the modelling industry, he’s very helpful and friendly and genuinely seeks to encourage others. Thank you Matt.

Leaving this review for an absolute great guy! I had no experience and didn't have a clue what to do and came across Matt online. I rang him and had a chat and ended up booking for a portfolio. I travelled to Lincoln for the day and did a fantastic shoot! It was a great experience and a great day! I would highly recommend Matt as he even got me into two modelling agencies.

I recently had a fantastic experience on a photoshoot with Matt. He is such a lovely, person and he made the whole day fun and enjoyable from start to finish. He has great advice and tips as he has so much knowledge of the modelling industry. I am so pleased with my images from the day and so grateful to him as through his help, I am now a signed model!

We were recommended Matt for a location shoot we did at a shopping park in Birmingham. We couldn't have been happier. The photography was great and he was very easy to work with. He helped source the models, and also a great videographer. Matt has a very 'Can-Do', solutions-based approach to his work, which goes a long way these days. He clearly has loads of experience too! Thanks Matt.

We had a family shoot with Matt last week and we truly couldn’t have been happier with the whole experience. Matt made it a fun, comfortable, and relaxed environment. Keeping the momentum of the morning going he managed to keep the 7 year old, 5 year old and 10 months children all happy and on task, no doubt about it he has experience working with children and is a fantastic photographer. When the photos arrived with us we were beyond happy, he has really captured the personalities of all three of our children. Thank you Matt 😊

First and Foremost Matt is a true professional and an amazing photographer to work with. Not only is Matt a top photographer but he is also a very busy successful commercial model. So if you are looking to become a model or need portfolio updates Matt will give you personalised honest advice on the kind of shots to take and help you maximise your potential for getting work. Matt has just done a new portfolio update for me having discussed a change to a more Commercial look. I'm absolutely delighted with the result and I'm looking forward to getting more bookings as a result of his work. Secondly Matt is such a lovely guy. A really top bloke with 100%integrity. Do yourself a favour and contact Matt for. Honest professional advice.

My company Write Finder Headhunting Ltd asked Matt to help us with a less than conventional business photoshoot for our one year anniversary and he absolutely delivered. We turned up to his studio with swords, axes, guitars, wizards hats and a Labrador in a tuxedo and he not only took it all in his stride and helped us come up with some great looks but also was just such an interesting and wonderful man to talk to. Later that day he came to our one year party to take some more candid shots for award ceremonies and celebrations and we now have some wonderful memories of our one year to look back on. We got over 1500 photographs and some videos and an entire day of photography in a professional studio and some locations in and around Lincoln. Photograph's arrived super quickly and we were able to use them for our new website launch due to the fast turnaround! Matt, it was such a pleasure to meet you and I can't thank you enough for such spectacular service and company! I hope to see you soon! Big love from me and the gang at Write Finder Tim

My 17 year old daughter and I had the pleasure of spending the day with this incredible gentleman . Matt was recommended to us following an awful experience, when we were scammed by a model agency in Leeds. By contrast, Matt is a true professional, honest & trustworthy. The whole experience was great from start to finish. Matt is friendly whilst being professional and made the whole experience fun. Thank you Matt

I recently had my first photoshoot with Matt at his studio. I had no experience in the field but Matt was there to guide me and share his expertise and knowledge throughout the shoot. I felt at ease and comfortable infront of the camera as Matt will guide you through different poses and is easy to work with. I am very pleased with the photos from the shoot and even after the shoot, Matt has been contactable and has assited me with agencies. Highly recommend!

I was struggling to find a birthday present for my son- who seems to have all he needs, he works hard and is into his fashion- So what better than a photoshoot - great to show of his style & great for insta. I was really pleased when I found Matts website showed exactly what I needed to fill the brief. Matt is a great guy & really knows what he’s doing and obviously has heaps of experience both in front and the other side of the camera. Tom and Matt hit it off from the start, he really knew how to get the best out of him and the result were some absolutely stunning photos that truly took our breath away. I can’t recommend him enough! Thankyou Matt 🙏🏻

Booked Matt in for a portfolio update for me. Very happy with the outcome, we shot loads of updates, with lots of outfit changes going on too. Can’t wait to see the edited pics to send to my model agencies Great photographer, very professional and polite too.

Matt is a fabulous photographer, very professional and a lovely guy. I was really pleased with my recent portfolio update, Matt knows the industry so well and is easy to work with. Can highly recommend!

I had my first ever portfolio shoot with Matt on Monday and really enjoyed it! Due to it being my first photoshoot I was slightly apprehensive but Matt soon made me feel comfortable helped me through different poses and positions.Thanks Matt, I learnt a lot from you!

I went to Matt for a portfolio update. I wanted specific looks and images to fill the gaps in what I already had. He was fantastic! He fulfilled the brief exactly and we got loads of great shots - I'm really pleased. Matt is professional, easy to work with and a lovely bloke! Thank you Matt for a great shoot 😄

I’ve known Matt professionally for years and he’s the ultimate pro either side of the camera. I recently asked Matt to help me update my book and I loved what he did! I can’t recommend him enough .. especially for models wanting to break into the industry. His wealth of knowledge is invaluable, not only does he give great direction but he’s a class A photographer.

I had a fantastic experience during a recent Photoshoot with Matt, who was not only professional and extremely knowledgeable about the industry but also very friendly and approachable, which is a big plus in this day and age. His attention to detail was second to none and I would thoroughly recommend Matt to anyone wanting to persue a career in modelling or just requiring some fabulous shots.

S. E.

I genuinely feel like Matt was the first person to see my potential, before even ME! I remember at my first headshot session i explained i was more worried i couldn't do the whole model serious face look. Matt was the one who gave me confidence that my smile was enough and that this would get me work! Since then i have done two portfolio shoots in Lincoln with Matt, one at his home studio, outdoor locations around the area and then one in a local studio. I had a fantastic experience, Matt is so professional and extremely knowledgeable about the industry, super friendly and very respectful. He makes me feel so comfortable, which i feel is very important. I have been trying to get signed by a top agency whilst building my portfolio. Matt sent my second set of portfolio shots off to FACE in Leeds, who then added me to the model board, so grateful for you getting me to this stage Matt, i am extremely excited to see what the future holds, anyone wanting to pursue a career in modelling Matt is your best place to start. Thank you so much, Shannon.

I was recommended Matt for a shoot for my son...my son is 17 and was nervous as it was his first shoot however Matt put him and I at ease...the studio is fantastic and in a lovely spot ...we went through the process...expectations and realistic possible outcomes...I found him honest, professional and fantatsic value for money...my son even commented afterwards at how impressed he was that we went to take shots in the outdoors finding several locations as that is what the professionals do apparently...I'm happy and more importantly my son is happy...thanks Matt for creating a fantastic day for us!!!!!

Matts so professional and makes everyone feel at ease so perfect for anyone new to the industry. His pictures are amazing and he always has new ideas getting the best out of any situation. A great guy and super talented photographer!

S. D.

Matt is the loveliest photographer you will ever work with! Super organised and professional. He asked for a mood board before our shoot, and embraced my 12 page PowerPoint presentation (rather than heading for the hills😂). He was a joy to work with, listened to my ideas and allowed me to feel that I’d really contributed something worthwhile. Matt has an expert eye for the finer details, and knows what does and doesn’t work!!! Our shoot was an absolutely brilliant day, lots of fun, and I’m over the moon with the images. Portfolio updated 👍🏻 and he’s put me in touch with a couple of additional agencies. 🥰

J. S.

Fantastic experience with Matt! Over the moon with the finished images, literally went above and beyond and my daughter absolutely loved him ….. was definitely worth the travel from Durham. So pleased the agency put us in contact with him, and when she needs a portfolio update I’ve got no doubt we will travel back down to Lincoln to see him again.

I had my first ever portfolio update with Matt last week and it went great! I automatically felt at ease! Matt offers posing, facial expression and outfit advice. As well as having/offering different shoot locations to match the outfits and different styles. I highly recommend Matt!
