Matthew Russell Rolston is an American photographer, director, and creative director. Rolston is known for his signature lighting techniques and detailed approach to art direction and design, and has been repeatedly identified throughout his career with the revival and modern expression of Hollywood glamour.

Born in Los Angeles, Rolston was "discovered" by Andy Warhol for Warhol's celebrity focused Interview magazine, where he began a successful career in photography. Soon after, he began shooting covers and editorial assignments for founding editor Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone. Shortly, other well-established publications began to recognize Rolston’s work, such as Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Vanity Fair, W, GQ, Esquire, Cosmopolitan,O: The Oprah Magazine, and The New York Times.

Extending his vision beyond still photography into the moving image, Rolston began conceiving, writing and directing film projects, and has since completed over 200 music videos and 100 television commercials, along with thousands of photo shoots (over 100 covers for Rolling Stone alone), as well as countless advertising campaigns for clients as diverse as L’Oreal, Revlon, Estée Lauder, Clairol, Levi's, Pantene, Elizabeth Arden, Gap, and Polo Ralph Lauren, among others.
