Testimonials"There's so much emotion in Matt's photography, from the humorous highs to moments of vulnerability. He maintains such a high quality of work throughout the thousands of photos in his stream. His 365 set is *not* to be missed. I'm always excited to see what he has up his sleeves. He's an incredibly talented photographer who I know will be doing big things some day. Cheers!!" "I don't really feel that I'm worthy of writing this, but I've been meaning to give it a try for ages, so here goes. You don't need to delve deep into Matt's photo-stream to see how much talent he has, but it's worth it if you do. He's got an incredible eye for finding that one spontaneous shot - over and over again. Of course, it doesn't end there, because the thought that goes into the post-production on every shot is considered and careful. He puts a lot in and as a viewer, you get a lot out. Then, of course, there's the effort he puts in to creating a shot. If he's not out observing the amazing things in the world around us, he's creating something interesting and fascinating to see. His portraits in particular (of himself and of others) are amazing. I'm glad I can call Matt a friend, and I always enjoy his shots. Cheers, mate. And keep 'em coming. :)" "Matt is a great accomplished photographer. He manages to take the most simple shots and turn them into a masterpiece. I know this because we have taken images of the same thing and his always look fantastic while mine were not even worth opening with PS. When he uses props, his shots become absolutely stunning, captivating and beautiful. Every time i log into Flickr i look at Matt's photostream, just to see what he's been up to. If you are reading this you will already know he is talented, o and also looks very cool in dapper clothes. So I'm glad i added him as a contact a few months ago. We've met up a few times and enjoyed a few pints of cider at our local boozery, he's a really nice person, great in fact, gentle, always friendly and easy to talk to, also he is kind and good with kids. My little boy loves him and the contents of his pockets (camera, wallet, phone). Great images as always Matt, keep up the work and also keep an eye out for that next project. pete x" "Matt... always clever and always well thought out! you really get a sense that he is at one with his camera. his shots always have great details, quality and overall jazz! there isn't a day that goes by where you will see a marginal photo in his stream! they are always top shelf and ROCK STAR! of course he is a big tosser... but we don't hold that against him. =)" "It's difficult to say anything new that hasn't already been said about Matt and his superb photography. My regret is that I wasn't able to type a testimonial before others did, so they would struggle like I am doing now. I see a lot of myself in Matt and his work (and no doubt, you do too). This is not to say that Matt isn't original, he most certainly is. He takes the photographs and has the capacity to record an observation, an emotion, an object or a subject that we would readily pass by. Does he have extra sight? I think so. His execution is outstanding in ways that I could never even come close to. I would like to close now and use the word "burp', for no other reason apart from the fact that no other person has used this in their testimonial for Matt. A random word, just to add a little originality; mainly for myself, to make me smile at least. Matt - you are a star, and I adore you :)" "Matt is a fantastic photographer. With over 4000 photos on flickr it blows me away how consistently high the quality and variation of his work is. He puts his true feelings and emotions out there for all to see and I admire him hugely for that. He has been very supportive of my work and I have enjoyed getting to know him. He has threatened to come to Cambridge to meet up and I really look forward to that (but I am slightly scared too:) )." "Matt makes me notice that it is important for expressing yourself. Either good, bad, horribly negative, somewhat upsetting or anything. He inspires me all the time and I'm grateful for being friends with him!" ".......i try to write for 20 minutes, and dont find the right words of telling you, how often i like pictures of you//from you. you remind me of a little boy, playing and forgetting whats happening around him, and this makes you special..................another 20 minutes later.......okay and youre sexy! xxx erdalito" "Matt's unique take on the world comes through, with the force of a steam train, in his photography. His love of capturing the slightly off kilter and sometimes disturbing keeps me coming back day after day. He can inspire joy, fear, happiness and sadness just by switching on his camera, and pulling a face, or wearing a costume, or sitting nude (that's the fear bit :D ). He is a true inspiration in the world of Flickr, and has pushed me to be more creative in my own work. I'm glad to have stumbled across his work." "Oh, my heart be still. Matt's self images capture humility, humor, tenderness and skill without ever becoming silly or trite, a task not many can pull off. In this case he's the perfect subject and photographer, all rolled into one. He's an inspiration to me, that's for sure. I'd like to comment on all his other amazing photos, but I can't past his self images just yet. Give me time!" " Matt is a hugely talented photographer-its a real natural gift with him.I reckon you could give him any camera and any location and in no time he`d be creating fantastic images. Wide ranging themes from dark and twisted cinematic images to the quirky,humourous,facets of everyday life feature in his work. Add to that his enthusiasm, humanity and an ability to see so much of the world with fresh eyes.Matt your work really is inspirational and works on so many levels,I`m glad to know you mate! Thanks!
