Matthew Kelly has worked as a photographer for over 35 years, documenting the cultures of more than 50 countries. He has been published in innumerable magazines and journals around the world and held exhibitions in Britain, China and South Korea. Kelly and his Chinese wife moved to Beijing in 2007 when Matthew immediately fell in love with the street life in the historic hutong area. He has not stopped exploring and photographing it ever since. (Much of this was done in partnership with Prince Charles’ Charitable Foundation, which has preserved many courtyard homes in the area.) Matthew wants to help improve your photography, but most importantly he wants you to interact with residents so as to experience the traditional local culture and to leave Beijing with some wonderful images.
