Andy Matthews

 

Thank you for finding my profile, I am currently taking a break from shooting, but please contact me for Summer 2024 shoots.

(Last updated 11/04/2024)

My name is Andrew, and I am a full-time professional performing arts and event photographer based near Brighton, so my passion is Dance, Fashion, and Portraiture photography, including both studio and location shoots.

I will consider requests for collaborations if they will genuinely benefit everyone's portfolios.

From the feedback I get from the people I have worked with, I think that I have a good sense of humour, am approachable, don't bite, and I am definitely easy to get on with during a shoot.

Although if I am honest, I just loving being behind the camera, and taking photos that challenge me, or involve movement are the ones that excite my real passion. I am constantly trying to improve my photography, keeping up to date with current trends, as well as experimenting with as many different styles and new ideas as possible.

My standard hourly rate for portfolio work is from £65 depending on the assignments, and image use.

Minimum booking is 2 hours, and travel is charged at 45p per mile.

I am enhanced DBS checked.

I always try to reply as quickly as possible, however please be aware that sometimes there may be a delay depending on my workload, and please note I am not interested in models who love my portfolio, and then list their rates, or shooting adult themes, and therefore never reply to these requests.

When approaching me to work with you please provide as much information as possible in your initial enquiry including:

Main themes/ideas you have for the shoot

Budget

Shoot date(s)

Location

Duration

How confident you are doing your own make-up and hair styling, so I can arrange a HMUA if necessary

What outfits or items of clothing and shoes you will be bringing along with you?
