ABOUT ME

Matt Doogue
Hey,
My name is Matt, nice to meet you. This is a place where I can share a little bit about me and my journey.
So, we've already established my name is Matt, or as some call me 'Macro Matt' . I'm an award winning photographer currently living in Scotland. I'm a keen conservationist, tour leader/holiday guide, ambassador for Vanguard UK, outreach teacher, competition judge and all out wildlife fanatic.
In my time as a photographer, currently 7 years, I've been published in most of the UK's top photography magazines, I've done features with BBC Earth, Canon and BBC Springwatch. I've been lucky enough to have been featured with National Geographic and personally featured and interviewed on BBC Autumnwatch TV Show.
In my spare time I like to visit schools and educate children of all ages on the importance of our planets natural state, we discuss things like climate breakdown, wildlife decline, habitat loss and ways in which we can help. These sessions are awesome, everyone has a great time and if you are lucky, I may just bring along some of my insect friends.
I also like to promote Mental Health awareness, I do this through club talks and presentations. As a long term sufferer of Mental Health related illnesses I find it vitally important.
