Black and white portrait of a man with a slight smile, wearing a suit and tie.

Hi, I’m Matt, thanks for visiting my website.

I am an Australian landscape photographer based in Canberra.

Photography has captivated me since my early days. My adult life has been shaped by the television news business, taking me to many places around the globe. While cameras are part of my daily work, it's the serenity and calm of a well-photographed still image that inspires me to create. I aim to capture unique landscapes, seascapes, and abstract images that stand out from the rest.

Outdoor photography is a wonderful way to spend the day, whether it's in the Scottish Highlands, on a Sydney ferry, or wandering along your favourite bit of coastline. The feeling of freedom and adventure is a great escape from the busy world we live in.

If you would like to purchase any of my images, you can contact me via the Contact page.
