Mat Creates

I’m Mateusz Szopa — the photographer behind Mat Creates — and I specialise in portrait photography from my studio in Chalfont Saint Peter. With a commercial background and more than a decade of experience working with major brands, I bring that same attention to detail and creative problem-solving to every headshot and business portrait I make. My goal is simple: create professional portraits that feel authentic and make a confident impression. Why choose Mat Creates for your portrait? I combine technical lighting control and a calm, conversational approach so even camera-shy clients leave with powerful images. Whether you need a LinkedIn photo, a corporate headshot, or a refined business portrait, I focus on expression, posture and subtle lighting to deliver images that communicate competence and personality. My work is informed by real commercial shoots, which means I understand how portraits sit within wider brand visuals and marketing needs. What makes my approach special is the balance between precision and ease. In the studio I prefer a relaxed, collaborative atmosphere: we start with a short consultation to define the look you want, then I guide you through posing and expression with clear direction. My lighting setups are tailored to each client — clean, flattering and consistent — and I pay close attention to colour and finish so your portraits work across online profiles, press, and print. How I work: after an initial brief we agree the session style and priorities. On the day I aim for efficiency and comfort; sessions are focused and friendly so you get a variety of natural, usable frames without stress. I provide professional editing to produce polished final files, ready for LinkedIn, corporate websites or press use. If needed, I can advise on wardrobe and presentation to ensure the final images align with your professional goals. Based in Chalfont Saint Peter and serving the surrounding area, Mat Creates brings studio-grade portrait photography with a personal touch. If you want a portrait that looks professional, authentic and on-brand, let’s talk — I’ll help you plan the session and deliver images that work hard for your career or business.
