As a fine art photographer based in Cheadle Hulme, Matt Blonc positions himself as a portrait specialist — bringing an artful eye to every studio session. Matt’s work sits at the intersection of classic portraiture and contemporary commercial needs: whether you want a confident LinkedIn headshot, a refined professional portrait for business use, or a more expressive fine art studio image, his approach is rooted in controlled light, considered composition and a calm, collaborative atmosphere. What sets Matt apart is his fine art sensibility. He treats each portrait as an individual study in tone, texture and character, often working in the studio to sculpt light with intention. This results in portraits that feel timeless yet modern — images that elevate personal and corporate brands while remaining unmistakably human. Clients repeatedly praise his ability to put people at ease; the relaxed environment and conversational direction draw out natural expressions rather than forced poses. How Matt works: sessions are straightforward and client-focused. He begins with a short conversation about the end use of the images (corporate profile, creative portfolio, personal fine art), then adapts lighting, backdrop and guidance to match that brief. In the studio he balances technical precision with a loose, friendly rapport, guiding subjects through subtle adjustments that produce authentic results. For business portraits and headshots, the emphasis is on clarity, presence and professionalism; for fine art portraits, he brings a more explorative, editorial touch. Matt’s studio practice is informed by years of creative work and an attention to detail that shows in every finished frame. He values collaboration — listening to clients’ needs, offering clear direction, and delivering images that serve both practical objectives and creative ambition. While portraiture is his core focus, his broader fine art background enriches his portraits with a depth of feeling and a refined visual language. If you’re in Cheadle Hulme or the surrounding area and need a portrait photographer who combines fine art craftsmanship with professional headshot expertise, Matt Blonc offers a focused, personable studio experience designed to capture the best version of you.
