Matt Curtis Photographer

I'm Matt Curtis...​

I'm a photographer... That's it, that's what I do, that's what I've always done so what else can I tell you about ME.

I was born in '73 and spent my first eleven years in Scotland before moving to Warminster in Wiltshire. I was distinctly average at school, always having more interest in music than any academic subjects so I enjoyed learning the saxophone and teaching myself various other instruments along the way.

But back to photography...having learned the very basics of photography from my father, I landed my first job selling cameras in the early '90s and by '97 I was working in a local studio and introducing the latest in digital developments such as Adobe Photoshop and retouching to their well established business. I stayed with them and learned by working alongside their established and BIPP (British Institute of Professional Photography) certified photographers and progressed to become one of their wedding photographers and studio specialist.

From there I took the logical progression and set up my own business in 2014 initially working from home and in January 2017 opened Chinns Court Studio in Warminster where I offer everything for studio photography, wedding photography, commercial product, branding, the list goes on.
When I started my own business I signed up to the British Institute of Professional Photography and obtained my Licentiate qualification. During my time with them I have won awards such as The South West and Cotswolds Portrait Photographer of the Year and have also been voted on to the Board of Directors where we help shape the industry and stand as the voice of the Professional Photographer and maintain a quality standard for the profession.
