Matthew Weinreb is a multi-award winning, internationally renowned photographer specialising in architecture and landscape.

He first decided to become a photographer in 1981 whilst living in New York and working in the Cityana photographic gallery, a specialist exhibitor of images of Manhattan. Inspired by the photographs, architecture and play of light around him, he set out with his camera to capture the essence of the city’s buildings. He has never looked back.

He was the first winner of the European award of Architectural Photographer of the year and has won many awards since.

He has published nine internationally acclaimed books on London, Paris, Moorish architecture in Spain and Portugal and his most recent volume on the Gers in SW France has just been released. Matthew won the praise of the critics for his duo of books from Phaidon ‘London, Portrait of a City’ and ‘Metropolitain, a Portrait of Paris.’ This from the New York Times… “Mr Weinreb gives us a Paris that fairly crackles with formal energy” “nowhere is there faking, fudging or approximation” “a mastery of placing and distance and a gift for cropping and tailoring.”

Matthew’s images feature across the web and one of his panoramic images of King’s Cross station in London has been viewed 3 million times on Google earth.

Matthew photographs for many of the world’s significant architects, magazines and advertising agencies.
