Matt Phillips' Photography & Website Design Portfolio
Step into a world seen through my lens, where every photograph tells a story. From the sweeping landscapes of the Lake District and the Pyrenees, to the quiet beauty of Buckinghamshire fields, the wild charm of Dorset’s coast, and the energy of London’s landmarks, my portfolio galleries capture the essence of place and moment.
Explore the portfolio and immerse yourself in photo galleries including landscapes, wildlife, flora, portraits, and cityscapes. Each collection is an invitation to pause, look closer, and see the world differently.
Photography for me is more than images — it’s about distilling atmosphere, emotion, and detail into something lasting. Whether it’s the delicate wingbeat of a butterfly, the character in a portrait, or the stillness of dawn over water, each picture reflects a passion for finding beauty in both the everyday and the extraordinary.
Beyond photography, my creativity extends into other fields. I design and build websites tailored to individuals, small businesses, and charities, blending clean design with practical functionality. With experience in Search Engine Optimisation (SEO), I also help sites reach the right audience and perform well in search engines, ensuring that great design is matched with strong visibility.
Art has always been another passion of mine, and I work in both traditional and digital mediums. From watercolour-inspired digital paintings to original acrylic paintings, my artwork explores nature, landscapes, and everyday details with the same eye for atmosphere and storytelling that guides my photography.

About My Photography
Photography has been a passion of mine for decades — sometimes a hobby, sometimes paid work — but always a way of capturing the world as I see it. Whether I’m out walking in the countryside or travelling further afield, I rarely go anywhere without my camera.
My portfolio reflects a wide variety of subjects and locations. Close to home, I’ve explored the beauty of local flora and fauna, documenting British wildlife in Buckinghamshire and beyond. Across England, I’ve photographed some of the country’s most striking landscapes — from the dramatic fells and lakes of the Lake District to the rugged Dorset coast, as well as vibrant cityscapes and London at night. Further afield, I often travel to France, where the stunning Pyrenees mountains and surrounding nature provide endless inspiration.
I take most photographs when travelling somewhere new, driven by curiosity and the excitement of discovery. From fleeting moments with wildlife to sweeping panoramas, I aim to capture whatever catches my eye — be it spectacular landscapes, quiet details in nature, or the unique atmosphere of a place.
Alongside photography, I also enjoy other creative pursuits including painting, drawing, and website design, all of which feed into my artistic vision.
Welcome to my photography portfolio — a collection that celebrates the beauty, diversity, and character of the world around us.
Website Design & SEO
Website design and search engine optimisation (SEO) have long been a passion of mine. I find it rewarding to create websites that showcase photography, art, support charities, and promote local businesses – helping them get seen online. With over 25 years of experience, I continue to enjoy designing and optimising websites that combine creativity, clarity, and purpose.
