Hello! Im Matt

About Me!

Hi! Im Matt. A wedding photographer from the flatlands of Norfolk (well….Norwich)

I’m into lots of geeky stuff – mostly sci-fi and fantasy, as well as board games (esp geeky ones), cycling, collecting music, illustration, design, and all things amazing, and of course my family. I have two young boys who keep me occupied, one mad about Pokémon, the other Mario, and Sonic the Hedgehog. They both routinely beat me at Mario Kart. 

I also have another job working as an illustrator and retoucher. Over the years, I’ve worked on small and international campaigns for many household names and brands. I’ve produced work for Lily Allen, Robbie Williams, Muse, Cadbury, and Ministry of Sound, as well as plenty of book and magazine covers.  I also help my wife out with her job designing, producing, and photographing wedding books and signs at CluckingBelle Designs.

What do you like about weddings?
What don’t I like about weddings? In my other job, I spend most (okay….ALL) of my day in front of a computer screen. Weddings give me the opportunity to get out, breathe some air, meet amazing people, and just have the best time. It really is an amazing job, I just love it!

How would you describe your photography?
True to life, honest, real, timeless, and natural. I try to avoid photography styles that will look dated in a few years; rather, I like to focus on how the day really is and was. Norfolk Wedding Photography that’s fun and Natural

What advice would you give to couples looking to get married?
When I got married, I made the mistake of asking a friend to photograph my wedding; it didn’t go all that well. We got a handful of shots I liked, but much of the day was missed, and it’s something I continue to regret to this day – even more so now that I’m a wedding photographer myself!

Find a photographer who knows what they are doing, one with confidence, and one who’s enthusiastic about what they do and enthusiastic about you and your day. If you find that photographer, you can’t go wrong.
There’s your perfect photographer out there – maybe it’s me, maybe it’s not, but that’s why it’s important to reach out and have a chat. Speaking of which…..
