Welcome to a new era of photography.
Matrix Images stands as a beacon of truth in a world increasingly clouded by misinformation and manipulated realities. At the core of our mission is cutting-edge authentication technology, designed to combat the rise of AI generated falsehoods. But authenticity isn’t just a technological safeguard it’s the foundation of journalism itself. We bring to light the unseen, the untold, and the overlooked, ensuring that the stories shaping our world are rooted in fact.
Global journalism has long been dominated by narratives from the Global North. Matrix Images exists to restore balance. We provide global visual journalism but by amplifying voices from the Global South, we provide a broader, more accurate reflection of our world shaped by the diversity of those who live it.
Matrix Images is an authenticated marketplace for visual journalism. Our platform connects photographers and buyers in a curated space where integrity and purpose drive the work. Through this network, we foster collaboration, ensuring that important stories are told and seen.
At a time when global challenges demand deeper understanding, we remain committed to journalism that informs rather than inflames, that reveals rather than distorts. From environmental crises to social realities, our work captures the world as it is so that the world can better understand itself.

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.
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. Contact us for more details on this technology.

By the photographers for the photographers
Matrix Images was built by photographers, for photographers. We operate on a unique model—one that ensures photographers receive the highest share of sales, more than any other agency. Those behind the lens should reap the greatest rewards from their work, and this system is designed to make that a reality.
If you are a photojournalist with a passion for storytelling, a sharp eye, and the ability to create powerful images, we welcome you. Contact us

Planet
To keep the planet within liveable boundaries, this decisive decade could make all the difference. 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.

Whether you are driving measurable shifts across the natural world or human society, we can document, shape and share the messages that matter to you most.
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 provides a platform for the development of student and community photojournalism.
We facilitate and educate those wishing to bear the torch of visual storytelling.
We believe that, whenever possible, stories must be told from within the heart of affected communities.
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. Reach out to us if you wish to become part of our programme.

Sport
We curate outstanding global sports photography from a stable of acclaimed photographers.
Sport has the ability to inspire and we leverage the story and symbolism it shares with the world.
Our photographers have covered multiple Olympic games, world championships, world cups and a variety of top international events. We continue to bring you the highest level of sports coverage from around the globe and offer a fresh perspective in all we cover.
Our team is also for hire to deliver bespoke sports coverage of your events and for brands wanting to have their stories told.
