If I could I would send every person who wishes to model to go and do a shoot with Matt, not only will you learn so much but you will absolutely laugh more than you have before. This is amazing unless you want to do a grumpy face portrait and then you're done for!!

Matt is super quick, listens to your ideas, inputs his own (in the best ways), and will work with you to get shots that are absolutely stunning!! I have worked with Matt a couple of times now and he amazes me with his ability to turn me from decrepit and creaking to beautiful in the shots, his lighting and eye for the shot is incredible!

If you have looked at Matts profile and his incredible images didn't sell him to you, and you have gotten this far and remain unconvinced (actually impossible), I would vouch for Matt a million times over and give you a shove and say DO IT you would regret not going!!

I was SO pleased to work with Matt again, after a really memorable shoot a year ago. On top of being a fantastically creative photographer, he's a really lovely person to shoot with. I feel like I've met my match on craziness levels!

Our communication before the shooting was spot on, Matt arrived more than in time for the shoot at my home. I'm so pleased with the shots we got together, he has a great eye for photography, and I loved that he wanted to explore the domme look for this shoot. Aside from that, I think Matt is the only photographer I'd begrudgingly get my goggles and swimming cap on for!

Really enjoyed the couple of hours we shot for, it just flew by!! We managed a few different sets, and had a good chat throughout as well.

Highly highly recommend to any model who has the chance to shoot with Matt! Thanks again :)

I hadn't worked with Matt for 2 years... OMG!! It was so incredibly lovely to catch up; it only felt a matter of months and we picked up exactly where we left: MADNESS, CREATIVITY and blooming BEAUTIFUL images!

Matt is a force of nature; a whirlwind of energy, with such a natural talent and flair for photography and lighting! I also LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Matts lighting which was blooming beautiful and really flattered my shape.

Matt is also a super kind soul and I adore his personality- you can't help but smile and he lifts your spirits. Have to meet up again soon! Gem of a human being. HIGHLY recommended to all models and creatives. Thanks Matt, you rock xx

What a pleasure it was to meet and collaborate with Matt at my home in Bedfordshire.

I have been modelling for ten years and can honestly state that he is one of the nicest and most enjoyable people I have shot with! Prior to shooting pre-communication was great and everything was so easy to organised and speedy

During the shoot Matt gives such a relaxed atmosphere to shoot in. I loved that I could just flow through poses and get on with the shoot.

We got a variety of so many different great looks and themes and produced so many sets during our shoot together.

More than recommended to all Models! Such a creatively interesting, intelligent and lovely photographer and person :-)

Thank you Matt - You are AWESOME!

Looking forward to seeing and shooting with you again in the near future

Best Wishes

Sometimes you meet someone at the start of a shoot session and you just know that it's going to be an excellent collaboration - this was one of those shoots.

Despite rain spoiling original plans for location fashion, Matt and I managed to create some "awesome-sauce" stuff in his living room with various lights, outfits and a parachute! I could see on the back of the camera that epicness was acheived and I am so excited to see the finished edits.

Matt is friendly, funny but professional where it counts and embraced my crazy side so it was an awesome 3 hours and certainly one we will be repeating at some point!

Matt was great! I thoroughly enjoyed our shoot, we had a loose plan covering dance photography and portraiture. We bounced ideas off each other the entire shoot and we managed to get some amazing shots in just 2 hours, while maintaining a relaxed pace.

Matt is professional, friendly and a pleasure to work with. Thanks Matt! Hope to shoot again soon

Big Shot Studio

Matt attended the studio to shoot with Denise Valentine. I found Matt to be friendly and very personable, easy to get along with. He was totally familiar with shooting in a studio environment so I was happy to leave him to his own devices. After the shoot he tidied up the studio and put everything back where he found it. I would have no hesitation in recommending Matt to other studios. He is certainly welcome back here anytime. It was lovely to meet you Matt!

Denise Valentine

I love shooting with Matt even though I was feeling mega rough today he was really understandable and we took our time with our shoot. He's a proper gent and carried my bag up and down the stairs. I hope we got some decent photos despite really suffering with hay-fever and not being my 100% self. He's amazing at what he does with his work. And I hope he'd like to shoot with me again, next time let's hope no lergys 😂 we did a number of looks I think we managed 4 in the 2 hours at Big Shot Studio. Definitely recommend to work with this tog.

Ah, Mr Horton! I was so excited to work with Matt again and our session at f/8 Studio did not disappoint! He is one of the funniest, most down-to-Earth photographers I've had the pleasure of working with and I don't think we stopped laughing from beginning to end! His creativity, encouragement and appreciation for my ideas along with his wonderful skills means we created some amazing images as well as having a great time. I hope it's not such a long time before we get to shoot together again. Very highly recommended!

Matt is one of my all time favourite photographers. I shot in a dungeon with him today as I trusted him implicitly to tie me up and lock me into cages without a worry entering my mind. Matt is an excellent photographer and a very funny individual! I am extremely lucky to have met him and to have worked with him a handful of times already! Thank you so much Matt - I’m over the moon with our work xx

Despite only seeing him for the briefest of time, I can only speak highly of the “bubbly” Matt. The giggles and laughing I could hear was infectious and it appeared both Matt and his model Denise were having a great time shooting. Pre shoot comms were top notch, looking at Matts port he produces some

Sublime images, so I Am very much looking forward to seeing the results of the day. Highly recommended

Denise Valentine

What a fantastic first shoot with Matt he is so bubbly full of eithiusasim which made the whole shoot so much fun.

Precomms were amazing we knew what we wanted as soon as we started shooting.

The studio was epic and we did so many sets in our 3 hour shoot, it went so fast because we were having such a laugh. Even the studio owner thought we'd worked with each other years. I would love to work him again definitely recommended.

It was our first shoot with Matt recently and I am so glad we got to shoot together on my tour. Honestly, I think Matt’s work is amazing, and was really looking forward to this shoot which even exceeded my expectations. Matt is a very talented photographer but also such a pleasure and easy to work with. We got on together very well, created amazing images in a relaxed environment, and I am just amazed on how professional and amazing Matt is! I already received a lot of edited images from him which are incredible. Matt is fantastic to work with and the time just flew by!

I really hope to shoot with him again when I visit the south again in August and I highly recommend him to everyone!

Thank you for an amazing shoot! 😊

This guy makes my DAY!! 2nd shoot with Matt and my belly muscles still hurt from laughing so much - such an amazing personality! I absolutely love working with Matt - not only because of his personality and down to earth attitude but also because he is incredibly talented and easy to work with as a model - I really loved my 2nd shoot and hope we can show off even more work over the years to come xxx

Bobbi Castle

It was my first time working with Matt and it was so much fun! He came to shoot at my friends house where i was staying. We got on strait away but i knew we would because of the pre comms. It was a great shoot and i love the images i saw on the BOC. I cant wait to see the edited ones. I really hope next time i am in Gloucester we can work together again. I would definitely recommend.

I LOVED working with Matt again after much time away from modelling and humankind due to the pandemic! :) Matt is such a great laugh, so full of energy and mischievousness that it is VERY hard not to smile from start to finish! He is a great photographer, knows his lighting set ups and really puts the model at ease.

We talked far too much but achieved some beautiful photos and the shoot was full of creativity, fun and laughter, which is just what it is meant to be! :) Aside from this Matt is professional to work with, very respectful and kind. Would I recommend him? Absolutely!! Super highly recommended and really hope to work together again soon! Thankyou for a lovely shoot! Helen x

I worked with Matt recently after a mass of time hibernating like a little dwarf lost in Snowwhites massive skirt (I don't know either - it was very early in the morning when I wrote such a reference!) Working with Matt is such a pleasure- its meeting with an old friend, not work at all. Matt is hilarious- everytime we talk I smile (ok, ok I laugh and lots!) Mischievous Matt and his mischievous eyes and camera! He is a blooming great photographer, so creative, kind and great with lighting. I love his company and always look forward to the next shoot! Highly recommended to all, Helen x

Fab to work with :)

How refreshing it was to be out shooting in-person after lockdown and I couldn't have asked for a better experience getting back in the groove. With Matt being such a happy and easy-going person to work with, we had a great shoot with plenty of variety and a good natter and a laugh and sharing music taste too. Loved his lighting skills and camera angles, he knows what he's doing, and he has good taste. I enjoyed the shoot, and I'm proud of the shots, thanks to Matt.

I have no hesitation in recommending Matt to others.

I had a super 3hr location shoot with Matt last week! We got a lot done in the time and of course, had a good old catch up and natter in the process!!

The weather just about held out for us and we got some really beautiful images! It was so good to be back!! Love the edits I have seen so far and really enjoyed the shoot!

Thank you Matt, hope we can do it again one day :D

Tori-Anna

What a great shoot with Matt, hopefully the first of many! Spur of the moment location shoot, met early and the time just flew away! Matt is super professional, friendly and a great laugh! Felt totally at ease from the beginning and the resulting images speak for themselves! Highly recommend working with Matt if you get the opportunity!
