About
The fitness photo shoot lasts for 1 hour and 30 minutes, and includes 10 professional edited photos. Additional photos can be purchased through the your personal client gallery. See the Client Gallery section below for more information regarding purchasing photography.
If you have any sample images you’d like to try and recreate them bring them along to the shoot. It’s YOUR shoot so enjoy it!
What to Bring
Below are a list of items I recommend to bring along to your shoot. Before the shoot I do suggest having a tan, it doesn’t have to “show tan colour”. Having the bright lights shinning on your skin can sometimes blow out your skin tones.
- Change of clothes – gym wear, casual, stage shorts or bikini
- Water – stay hydrated during the shoot
- Food and Snacks – rice cakes, peanut butter or Haribo
- Baby oil or Vaseline – helps with adding shine and glow
Client Gallery
After the shoot a link to your personal password protected Client Gallery will be sent via email. The Client Gallery will display all the photos from the shoot in an unedited format.
In your gallery you can pick your 10 photographs and purchase any additional photographs. Additional photos can be purchased through the gallery, priced at £10 per photograph.
Location
I have the ability to use The Gym, Bristol Road, Gloucester after hours. Below is a map of the location and postcode of the gym. Located along Bristol Road and next to a Esso petrol station. There’s plenty of free parking in front of the gym. So check your route or travel before planning your shoot. Click here to plan your trip.
If you have are wanting to use a local gym, then please make sure you have permission from the gym owner before booking. Gyms with a lot of space work well, as well as having plenty of overhead space. This allows the lights to be boomed above to create down lighting, perfect for physique shots.

If you still have any questions or haven’t found the information you’re looking for, please get in touch.
I look forward to working with you soon!

Matt has a real talent at being able to capture all the efforts of your hard work. His skill with the camera and passion for photography and fitness really show in the quality of his work. I’ve worked with Matt twice and plan to work with him again in the future.
Highly recommend! I went to Matt to get some professional photos done for my personal training website & could not be happier with the results. Thanks Matt
Had a fantastic experience with Matt last Saturday. It was my first ever shoot so I was nervous but he’s a really down-to-earth, interesting guy and once we’d chatted for a bit and he’d set up, I didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. The photos came back really quickly and were so much better than I imagined… I notice the poses he gave me direction on looked the best so he must know what he’s talking about! Really great value for money – I’ve already bought some extra photos (might buy more!) and will definitely book in with him again for my next progress shoot. Thanks Matt!
Highly recommend. Very professional & the best out there! Would use again. Thanks Matt
I travel and will continue to travel from London to shoot with you as you are exceptional at what you do, so thank you for your professionalism, fun, ease to work with and patience! It’s an absolute pleasure to work with you Matt, great photography skills and you can tolerate my sense of humour.
Such an amazing shoot with Matt! I highly recommend!
Considering this was my first ever shoot Matt made me feel extremely comfortable and relaxed! It was just like hanging out with an old friend! Will definitely be back for more after my competition as such good value for money!
So happy with my photos from our gym shoot! Matt made me feel so comfortable and relaxed would highly recommend!
Awesome! I had a fantastic shoot with Matt. He was professional, organised, creative and completely put me at ease for my very first shoot. The final results are incredible and I couldn’t be more happy with the images he produced. So impressed and can’t wait to work with him again.
Matt was amazing, from the very first contact with him he was informative and we chatted lots before the shoot which definitely helped – I didn’t feel like I was meeting a stranger!
I’ve never done anything like this before and Matt helped with all the direction and ideas, he was positive, encouraging and made me feel really at ease.
The pictures… what can I say!? Matt is a genius, I was absolutely blown away by each and every one. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to be photographed by matt, he really knows what he’s doing. I look at my pics every day I am so over the moon with them!
I’d definitely recommend Matt, whether you’re a pro or a complete novice Matt will sort you out!!
Highly recommend my first photo shoot and really enjoyed shooting with Matt. Also really happy results and great service will defiantly be booking again in the future
Amazing photographer who produces amazing photos. Made me feel 100% comfortable during the shoot with his professional yet friendly approach and attitude. Would recommend Matt to anyone. 5 star service without a doubt!
I decided to shoot with Matt after stumbling across his work online. I have done a lot of modelling work and Matt’s work really stood out to me.
Not only is he a great photographer, but an absolute breath of fresh air when it comes to organising a shoot with. His customer service abilities are second to none, he replies quickly to queries, he’s friendly, helpful and very professional. So much so that I travelled all the way from Essex to shoot with him in Gloucester at the end of my first prep.
I look forward to working with him again in the future.
Not overly keen on posing for photos and have been putting off the shoot for some time……. Big mistake, there was nothing to be nervous about. Matt was really flexible to suit me and made me feel totally comfortable. It didn’t feel like I was actually posing at all.
It was such good fun. Really relaxed but still professional.
Photos are AMAZING!
Love it! Thank you so much darlin’
Definitely recommend!
I would highly recommend a photo shoot with Matt Thomas Photography! This was my first experience of a professional photo shoot and what an awesome experience it was! Matt showed his quality and experience behind the camera making me feel completely at ease from the very beginning! So happy with outcome of all the pics!! The only difficult part of this whole experience was trying to choose which photos to purchase as they were all better then anything I could of hoped for!
Great experience with Matt on my first fitness shoot. Made it enjoyable and his skills are crazy! Thanks mate
Had a fantastic first fitness shoot today! Matt was professional, made me feel at ease and came up with some awesome ideas. Will 100% be using Matt again and couldn’t recommend him highly enough.
As Matt trains in the gym himself it was very easy for him to transition between the photography and gym side of things! This is the main reason I chose to work with him.
Can’t wait for the finished results! Thank you my friend!
Fantastic, I loved every second of it. This was my first shoot so there were a few nerves there, but the mix of professionalism along with how at ease and comfortable he made me feel wiped any of that away. We worked well together, giving me ideas and helping make my visions become a reality! I would highly recommend working with Matt to anyone!
Great photographer had my first ever shoot last week while training didn’t even notice he was there which made me feel very comfortable and allowed me to carry on with my session highly recommended will definitely use again soon!
