Matt Harvey
Matt has been a working commercial/advertising photographer for over 25 years. Throughout his career, he has been fortunate to work across many disciplines, including shooting tourism, people, lifestyle, food, architecture, agriculture, and automotive. Photography has allowed him to meet and collaborate with amazing people, as well as travel extensively.
Typically, a major video component is involved in most of Matt’s commercial projects. While he loves shooting moving images, his passion for still photography remains stronger. Matt strives to capture the essence and mood of a scene in a single frame.
For Matt, photographing landscapes is a wonderfully pure and soul-cleansing experience. It always involves travel, exploration, and hopefully some adventure. He searches for the perfect location, waiting and hoping that he’ll find something special, with the light being just right.
Although based in Melbourne, Matt is originally from Country Victoria, where his heart remains. He was born in the nearby Mallee town of Managatang. Matt only discovered Lake Tyrell in recent years, passing by it en route to other destinations. The lake and the surrounding region have drawn him back, and it will continue to do so time and time again.
