I’m Matt, the photographer behind Matt Ankers Studio.

My work focuses on people, workplaces, and moments of activity as they unfold naturally, shaping them into clear visual narratives with an authentic sense of place and purpose.

From offices to on-location shoots and live events, I create imagery that feels considered, grounded, and easy to connect with, balancing genuine moments with a thoughtful approach to composition and storytelling.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. Recognising the shift toward mobile-first storytelling, I offer Social-First Video (9:16) alongside my photography. This includes high-impact vertical clips and audio capture designed specifically for LinkedIn, Instagram Reels, and digital PR, providing brands with a complete multi-format asset suite from a single shoot.

  • My approach is that of an unobtrusive observer. Whether I’m documenting a tech summit in London or a private branding session, I focus on capturing the genuine energy and narrative of the day without interrupting the natural flow. This documentary-led style ensures authentic results for conferences and brand activations.

  • For fast-paced corporate environments, I prioritised rapid-delivery options. I can provide a selection of "hero" images and social-ready video clips within hours of an event, ensuring your marketing team has high-quality content ready for immediate live-posting and press release distribution.

  • I am based in West Sussex and regularly work across London, Chichester, and the wider UK. From artisan branding projects on the South Coast to large-scale advertising campaigns in the City, I am fully equipped to manage on-location shoots and mobile studio setups wherever a project requires.

  • Matt photographed our 3-day Global Health Policy Forum convention, and all of our speakers and attendees are thrilled with his work. Matt was extremely professional, offered suggestions to ensure the best photos, and worked closely with our team to ensure that the event was documented in its entirety and that we had all the photographs we needed. It was a pleasure to work with you, Matt! Thank you!

  • I worked with Matt for what was my first ever photoshoot and it was a brilliant experience. Although I started off feeling very out of my comfort zone, Matt was able to make me feel at ease and guided me through every part of the process with professionalism and care. He really took the time to understand what we were hoping to capture and the final images genuinely reflect the essence of what we wanted to express with this brand photoshoot. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for beautiful, thoughtful imagery.

  • Matt did a photoshoot to capture me in my wellbeing space, Wild Willow. I really liked his professional, intuitive and yet relaxed approach. I’d asked for natural shots that didn’t look too “cheesy” (which can be hard as a yoga teacher and breathwork facilitator), and I was very happy with the pictures. I’d definitely recommend him.

  • Amazing work from Matt for a corporate event we hosted! He was really understanding, listened to our thoughts but also added his own flair, which was lovely to see. Not just the experience on the day, but the follow-up has been great. Matt's web page is really strong and makes the process of choosing the best pictures and downloading them, was super user-friendly.
