Matthew Gordon LRPS
BIOGRAPHY:
Today I work telling stories though photography, video and television.
I am an award winning Television Executive Producer specialising in creating factual and documentary programming for major UK broadcasters and streamers.
I was born in the 1970's when everything had a story to tell. From the photojournalism of the Sunday Times Magazine in it’s heyday, to the music climbing the charts – these were my influences. I have taken photographs since my teens, and despite studying engineering at University spent much of my time in a darkroom and University TV studio.
My Photography career began in Scotland when I spent two years as a photo editor, journalist and photographer at the university newspaper. Since then i have have studied through adult education including workshops at The Royal Photographic Society - achieving an LRPS distinction, short courses at Camberwell school of art and the Tate Modern.
My pictures have been published in three collections and exhibited several times including in 2017 as part of the first Photography on a Postcard exhibition and the Magnum Photo's Print Swap exhibition. I was also part of a ground breaking exhibition of mobile phone photography at London's Institute of Contemporary Art in 2007.
I have photographed artists, actors and chefs while taking promotional stills for various clients. - see my Portraits gallery for examples.
Matthew is a member of Godalming Photographic Club
TV:
My career in television started with an extra-curricular practical course at University and began making Saturday lunchtime review show 'Movies, Games and Videos' for ITV. Since that time I have made documentaries and popular factual series for Amazon Prime Video, BBC1, BBC2, Channel 4, Channel 5, ITV1, ITV2, SKY, UKTV, Fiver, Discovery, The Crime & Investigation Network, Lifetime and Paramount+.
