We have commissioned Matt Syres on two occasions to come to The John Berne School and take photos of the students, staff and school buildings for the purpose of our marketing collateral, school website and general promotion of Berne. We are a small school catering for vulnerable young students who struggle to fit into mainstream education. Matt has worked with our students and has managed to capture the heart and soul of our school and portray within his images exactly what we do, why and how. His ability to capture the mood, different personalities and to work with natural light to produce beautiful

Matt Syres has been our family photographer for over 15yrs, his ability to capture the essence of the moment is true genius. The photos we have are incredible moments of time that when looked at bring the emotion and sparkle of that second, that day, that occasion and the reflection of spirit. Everyone can take quick shots of there family, but when you engage Matt his talent and skill bring a command, poise and knowledge of photography that takes years to hone. I can't wait to work with him again. Good luck planning your event ;)
