Your brand deserves more than generic images, it deserves well crafted Portrait Photography projecting your personaility and character.
You deserve portrait photography that tells your story and builds real connection with your audience.
My approach to branding shoots, personal brand photography and business portrait photography is to highlight your uniqueness and give you a powerful visual presence.
From entrepreneurs to teams, I’ll help you create images that are professional, genuine, and unmistakably you.
“I needed a library of photos to promote myself across several, very different, business brands I run. The issue for me was getting photos with a different feel on just the one shoot. Matt suggested his Walkabout Photoshoot which gave us all the opportunity to get different tones in one afternoon.”
Jonathan Howkins
Professional Branding Portrait Photography So Good You'll Want to Use Them Everywhere - Lifestyle Photos for your Business
If you've never hired a professional portrait photographer before, you're probably concerned the whole process might be complicated, expensive, or uncomfortable. Will you look natural? How will it help my business? Will you be working with someone who understands your professional needs?
Here's the reality: I plan the portrait shoot with you to maximise your gain and improve your visual business brand. Think of a buinsess lifestyle branding photoshoot not as an interruption to your day, but a productive project to help project your story. It’s not an everyday ‘thing’ and it’s meant to give you a valued product which you will be using publicly to enhance your brand image. Don’t think of it as an inconvenience, it’s an exciting, creative boost to your business brand. And a little planning goes a long way.
Why Professional Portrait Photography Matters More Than You Might Realise
In today's digital-first business environment, your imagery isn't simply a photograph – it's your digital introduction. Your range of published branding photos form a visual language either speaking subliminally to your potential clients or customers, or shouting who you are and what you do from the rooftops.
"The images will be incredibly useful for showing future clients how we work, and for keeping our social media updated." - Rhythm Works
Here's what many professionals don't consider: Professional branding photography isn't about vanity – it's about credibility. When your imagery reflects quality and professionalism, it elevates everything you do.

I’ve been doing this a long time and have photographed thousands of people for headshots and portraits and worked within many companies gathering storybook photos. Take a look at my testimonials and Google reviews but also the range of photos on my website. I always deliver and know from feedback that people feel better about being photographed, especially those who don’t usually respond well to cameras.
I carry Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance.
"Matthew was swift to respond, very efficient and altogether a top bloke. The session was painless, the photos top quality." - Michael Andrews -
You’re not alone! I’d say 80% of my clients express this exact concern initially.
"I would normally rather have my teeth pulled than my photo taken, but by the end of my time with Matt I was, miraculously, relaxed and relatively unaware of the camera." - Alex Scotchbrook
My approach focuses on capturing your authentic professional presence rather than forced expressions. Sometimes, the most successful images happen when you're engaged in natural conversation.
"Matthew made me feel very at ease, and I hardly realised he was taking photos as we chatted." - M Downes -
