Matthew Perks
Bristol born photographer Matthew offers a unique perspective on the familiar. He travels the UK extensively with his drone to capture the unrelenting beauty of the British landscape. Researching locations ahead of time to ensure he captures nature unbridled.
His process is meticulous, using his ingenuity to swiftly learn the process of composition and construction of an image. His images are often trademarked by his saturated use of colour and unique birds eye view.
“I spent my days as a child taking things apart and discovering just how interesting life truly was. This fascination with being somewhat destructive slowly turned into creativity”
Matthew has spent the early part of his career as a Mechanical engineer building the wings for one of the UK’s leading aircraft manufacturers. It was only when he was gifted a Sony A200 camera that his love affair with photography began. “I was immersed in the variability and workmanship that it involved.” Matthew dreams of travelling worldwide with his drone and is particularly keen to capture the beauty of Iceland.
