Matt Hooper Photography
Hi I am Matt, a Fife-based Photographer who focuses on Photographing people.
I run The Original St Andrews Photoshoot Tour, The Original Edinburgh Photoshoot Tour, The Original Super Cupar Photoshoot Tour, and The Original Dundee Photoshoot Tour, unique photoshoot tours capturing moments of tourists and locals at famous landmarks within the two major destinations in North East Fife and Tayside. I am passionate about photographing people, showing them their own beauty, capturing emotions and moments, whether on location or in the studio. I also shoot Boudoir, weddings and other forms of social photography.
Prior to 2022 much of my experience was based in sports photography, shooting over 20 golf events as well as several football and rugby matches. Since 2013 I have run SHANK Media, a platform which focuses on golf both locally and nationally, more can be found at shankmedia.co.uk. Through SHANK Media I have been accredited to several significant golf events including 11 editions of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, 3 editions of the AIG Women's Open and the 2019 Solheim Cup among other events. In 2021-22 I focused on Football photography, being accredited to 3 Arbroath FC matches, plus matches at Swindon Town FC, Dundee United and Dundee FC.
I am originally from Devizes, Wiltshire in the South West of England, and I have lived in Fife since 2011. In 2020 I enrolled at Dundee and Angus College to broaden my knowledge of and skills in Photography, and in June 2022 I achieved an A in the HND Photography, I was also been awarded The Photography Prize by the college.
