Matthew PJ Clark Photography, a Portsmouth-based business headed by Creative Director Matthew Clark, is marking its 10th anniversary with a series of major accomplishments.
From photographing prestigious events like the British Banking Awards to the Royal Navy’s RNRMC charity gala aboard HMS Queen Elizabeth, the company has grown to cover over 50 events per month across the UK. With a commitment to delivering next-day media of the highest quality, Matthew PJ Clark Photography has earned its reputation as a trusted partner for clients nationwide.
A career highlight came this year when Matthew was shortlisted in the 2024 British Photography Awards’ event category. With over 20,000 entries, this recognition cements his place among the top professionals in the industry.
Clark’s rapid same-day photo turnaround has made him indispensable to brands and agencies seeking visually impactful content to enhance their event marketing. His ability to deliver scroll-stopping images has set him apart in a competitive field.
The road to success hasn’t been easy. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Matthew was forced to pause his career and move in with his grandfather while shielding. Rather than let the downtime go to waste, he focused on upskilling, networking, and planning for the industry’s recovery.
When the events sector reopened, Matthew’s hard work paid off. His income tripled, and he secured contracts with major national brands, further solidifying his business.
“We’ve built a reputation on capturing moments and delivering high-quality results quickly,” says Matthew Clark. “Our clients know they can rely on us to provide images that don’t just document an event but amplify it, helping them reach wider audiences organically. It’s been an incredible 10 years, and I’m excited to see where we go next.”
Matthew PJ Clark Photography continues to cover diverse events, including festivals, corporate functions, product launches, and charity galas. Their fast and efficient approach ensures clients can capitalise on the buzz of their events without delay.
