Matt’s photography skills are incredibly impressive. We have relied on them on multiple occasions to cover events we’ve organised at Friends of the Earth Melbourne and high quality is always delivered. I’m so grateful for the community work that Matt does, the way they show up and commitment to solidarity with activist communities. Much respect and strong vouches from us!

I have worked with Matt for many years. His photography and short films are always exceptionally good. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Matt for his excellent photography services during our recent conference. From the outset, Matt was a true professional — easy to communicate with, highly responsive, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure our vision was brought to life. We were thoroughly impressed with both the quality of the photos and his overall approach. The final images exceeded our expectations, and we would have no hesitation in recommending Matt to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer.

We have worked with Matt a number of times now for taking photographs and video at rallies and other events. He produces stunning photographs and has a great eye for capturing the moment.

Victorian State MP and Leader of the Victorian Greens

Matt’s photography is absolutely first class. Matt has worked alongside the Victorian Forest Alliance (VFA) for quite some time now, and been a valuable contribution to any event he photographed. His work is highly skilled, professional, and always astonishingly fast with the turnaround. We are certain that the quality of his photos have boosted the VFA’s reputation and media presence. So grateful to Matt for his work. Couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Emily Wood Trounce
On behalf of the Victorian Forest Alliance
Matt has an eye for a great shot, a plethora of cameras to capture a scene in its best light and a courageous determination to get into the thick of an event and grab the defining image. It has been my great pleasure to use his photos over the years because he always has the picture that says the best thousand words. He is able to flow through a large group to find the perfect position in way that almost renders him invisible. Matt is reliable, efficient and a delight to work with. I cannot recommend Matt highly enough, particularly for candid action photos.

Matt is brilliant to deal with: smart, punctual, with a fantastic eye. He took photos for my book launch and I couldn’t be happier with the quality.

Matt is a responsive, clear & friendly communicator. He arrived early on the night and was lovely to work with throughout the whole process. We’re glad we engaged him to photograph SIX’s (Sustainable Investment Exchange) event.

We have used Matt’s service as a photographer for a 350 Australia public event. Matt is incredibly skilled at what he does. His photos are sharp, emotive and beautifully shot. Matt approaches his work with professionalism and he is also easy to work with.

Matt produced a series of short video clips for social media during my council election campaign. He produced a professional product with minimal direction, and a quick turnaround time. He was also really easy to work with, very responsive to queries and minor change requests. I’m really happy to recommend Matt’s work.

Otway Coastal Environment Action Network (OCEAN)
Matt took photos for a significant and emotional vigil event I helped to organise recently and the photos are absolutely beautiful, very moving. Matt quietly and carefully took photos throughout the event. Each photo is carefully considered and creatively captured. Matt really caught the true essence of the event. Would highly recommend.

 

Sarah Brady
Palestine Australia Relief and Action (PARA)
Matt has a talent for capturing the essence of events associated with different social and environmental movements in his photography. This is a reflection of his deep understanding of what they are trying to achieve. He is dedicated, hardworking, and very responsive in terms of his communication. His high-quality work – both photos and video footage – has been used by our office on multiple occasions.

 

Sarah Mansfield

We’ve hired Matt as an on set and stills photographer on many of our film sets. He is a delight and his work is of an exceptional quality.
