BIO: MY NAME IS MATTHEW O’TOOLE, I AM A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER BASE IN LIVERPOOL. I AM THE OWNER AND PROPRIETOR OF ADEPT PHOTOGRAPHY.
PHOTOGRAPHY HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN IMPORTANT PART OF MY LIFE. WHEN I WAS YOUNG I WAS ALWAYS OUT WITH MY CAMERA TAKING PICTURES. HAVING GROWN UP WITH PHOTOGRAPHY, I THEN WANTED TO BECOME A PROFESSIONAL. AT THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN, I TRAVELLED EXTENSIVELY AROUND EUROPE EQUIPPED WITH A PENTAX SLR AND A ZOOM LENS. THIS GAVE ME A THIRST TO IMPROVE MY SKILLS AND DEVELOP A STYLE. IN 2007, I SWITCHED TO DIGITAL, A MOVE FROM WHICH I HAVE NEVER LOOKED BACK. IN 2009, I DECIDED THAT NOW WAS THE TIME. I QUIT MY JOB AND STUDIED A BTEC AND AN HND IN PHOTOGRAPHY AT COLLEGE.
SINCE THEN I HAVE TRAVELLED EXTENSIVELY WITH MY CAMERA. I ENJOYING TAKING IMAGES FROM AROUND THE GLOBE – CAPTURING DIVERSITY OF CULTURE AND SPIRITUALITY. I HAVE ALSO SPENT MY TIME BUILDING UP SUFFICIENT EXPERIENCE, EQUIPMENT AND EXPERTISE TO FULFILL MY DREAM OF BECOMING A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER. ADEPT PHOTOGRAPHY HAS BEEN UNDER DEVELOPMENT FOR SEVERAL YEARS BUT IS NOW A REGISTERED COMPANY – AND IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS.
