I can’t thank my couples enough for trusting me to be part of their wedding day and allowing me to indulge in something I’m so passionate about. THANK YOU x
What an incredible year!
Narrowing down this blog post was really tough. So many wonderful memories from so many wonderful weddings. I’ve been all over the UK, Italy, France and Portugal this year for weddings and ventured to Cuba and Barcelona for some street/travel work – more of that in a blog post coming soon.
My approach to making my selections this year was to almost exclusively use ‘moments’. For me this is what wedding photography is all about. Capturing the spirit of a celebration and soul of a particular moment. As photographers we’re subconsciously driven toward moments that reflect our personalities – and I’m hoping from this set and the other work from my website – that you get a sense of who I am as a person and photographer.
It’s great to be able to reflect back on what has been such a fun year. To look through all the photos I’ve delivered to my couples and all the memories I’ve made a long the way. I honestly can’t thank everyone who trusts me to be part of their wedding day enough. It’s an honour. Thank you. I’ve got my 30th wedding of the year coming up this weekend and I honestly cannot wait. If you’ve booked me for your wedding in 2017/18 already then you’re a bloody legend and I can’t wait to work with you soon. This time next year you’ll be in the slideshow! :D
For the photographers – every single photo I’ve taken this year for my wedding work has been on Fuji x-pro2’s. I couldn’t be happier with the system I’m now using, and as always, I’m happy to answer any questions you may have about Fuji’s and wedding work. I’ve taken somewhere close to 120,000 frames on these cameras and I plan on taking a lot more.
Thank you for taking the time to look at this blog post and if you’re a regular blog reader then thank you for your support through the year :)
Put the kettle on, grab a mince pie and enjoy some of my favourite frames from 2016.
Happy Christmas!x
Well I was going to do an end of year round up but I concede… you win….. Outstanding mate! banging year!
Nicely played Matt! You’ve got a knack for being in the right time at the right place – to 2017 – and beyond!
Awesome Matt – loved looking through these. Such fun. Here’s to a fab 2017!

Great feel of a moment there, frame after frame! Just the right mixture of fun, heartwarming, and silly. Slightly belated at this point but happy 2017 Matt x
These are just stunning Matt! What an awesome year you have had! And it’s making me consider the switch to Fuji even more! Have an awesome 2017 as well!
So many smiles in this post, Matt. Love all the emotion x

Fantastic post mate! Really enjoy the humour in your work.
Amazing work mate;-)
So much personality and humour in these pictures Matt, they’re brilliant. I love how you capture kids, and that one of the grandma looking at the bride in her dress is just perfect. Bold, vibrant and full of life, all of them. You should be so proud of these dude.
I’ve been so looking forward to this blog and to say you didn’t disappoint is an understatement! I love the humour and composition in your work. You have a real knack of making the viewer feel like they are there amongst the action. Cannot wait to see your 2017 work!
