Welcome to Matrix Images, a pioneering photojournalism agency dedicated to environmental and social visual journalism. Our commitment lies in delivering authentic reporting while utilizing advanced technology to ensure the authenticity of our photographs.
Breaking away from the dominance of developed-world narratives, we prioritize communities most affected by environmental and social change. Our mission is to amplify their voices, sharing their unique stories and shedding light on their triumphs and challenges.
Driven by the highest standards of photojournalism, we uphold an internationally recognized code of ethics. Our impartial and independent visual reports serve as a catalyst for education and awareness, focusing on urgent challenges and inspiring solutions.
From grassroots movements to global events, we curate a narrative that embraces the diversity and resilience of our planet and its people. Our experienced global network of photojournalists, editors, technical specialists, and administrators is dedicated to uncovering the world's most pressing issues and giving voice to the voiceless.
Join us on this transformative journey as we empower underrepresented communities to share their narratives. With our core team's years of collaboration and expertise, we strive for excellence in journalism and photography, fostering inclusivity and empathy in our world.
Authenticity
Authenticity is the central pillar of our agency.
This includes authenticity in our editorial direction as well as the technology we use.
One of the major problems facing journalism today is verification of information. AI, fake news and an abundance of unverified data compound these challenges.
There is no truth without proof.
Introducing the Authenticated Image Marketplace (AIM) which guarantees verified visual journalism.
Offering significant advances in industry reporting, our authentication feature provides proof of authenticity to all images in our marketplace.

To keep the planet within liveable boundaries, this decisive decade could make all the difference.
Planet
Earth is at a tipping point and we stand at the very edge of that change. Recording the forces that sweep the Anthropocene, we shift perspectives, hold the powerful to account and tell the stories that can transform the world.
Image Service
Matrix Images curates a professionally edited quality feed of real-time photojournalism on key issues, solutions and events.
Our live feed stocks alternative news features and photography that inspire across the genres of social documentary, sport, business and arts and culture.
We prioritise stories that inform and inspire and leave the others to cover handshakes and press conferences.
We tell the human and environmental stories behind the news, and focus on earths most critical issues. Moving away from a narrative dominated by the global north, our pictures shine a light on underexposed areas.

Our extensive global network represents us on all continents.
Working with some of the world’s best writers, data journalists and copy editors, we combine our visual storytelling skills to offer a one-stop service based on high-end narrative packages.
Education
By mentoring and showcasing student work, Matrix Images partners with Thrivelife and Photo Start to provide a platform for the development of youth and community photojournalism.
A percentage of all sales are directed towards educational and environmental programs.
We believe that, whenever possible, stories must be told from within the heart of the affected community.
To support that vision, each of our bureaus around the world serves as a center for learning within such communities. Here, students learn alongside established photojournalists, grooming the next brave generation of grassroots reporters. These young photographers are then given the opportunity to work in the industry through our networks. We are building a generative spiral of connections to drive inclusive development.
Sport
Outstanding global sports photography from a stable of acclaimed photographers.
Our photography is unique, capturing the full dynamism of sports in the natural environment. We focus on sportspeople who are ambassadors of society and exemplify the triumph of the human spirit.
We love collaborating with brands, organisations and events that inspire people to act.
