Hey, I'm Matt and amongst other things I photograph stuff, mainly gigs, portraits, landscapes (and the occasional Burlesque troupe). My photos have been published in numerous magazines and newspapers, some well respected ones and some less so :-). So I'm looking for bands / people out there that need some new shots done (live and studio / location). I shoot digital (although film can be arranged). I've attached a few lo res images in my gallery that change regularly. A more varied selection is carried on my website www.mattkent.co.uk where there are many more photos posted. There's also a contact page for anyone wishing to arrange a shoot. Fees are very reasonable especially for unsigned bands.
I have just held my first photographic exhibition, which was in South London and you can read a review of it here.
I write occasionally as well, but, like most writers, I try and put that off for as long as possible. If any magazines are interested I can also provide interviews / reviews and photos together in one package.
In 2002 a book I co wrote on the Who, Anyway Anyhow Anywhere was published and a softback version was republished in 2005 and more recently released in the UK as a pocket (largish pockets required) paperback. I'm currently in the process of starting two new books, which will, hopefully, see the light of day in 2009 / 10.
Anyone who's interested please feel free to get in touch. You can email me at info@mattkent.co.uk or leave me a message here.
Anyone who's interested in art work should also check out my brother's stuff (Quizz in my friends list below) at www.patkent.co.uk.
