Photography That Captures More Than Just a Moment
You’re not here for generic, forgettable photos—you want imagery that makes people feel something. That’s where I come in. Whether it’s an event bursting with life, a micro wedding packed with emotion, a branding shoot that demands attention, or a family session that actually feels like your family, I create visuals that tell your story with depth, energy, and a damn good eye for detail.
Event Photography
Bring the Energy, I’ll Capture It
Your event is more than just a schedule of speakers or a packed dance floor—it’s an experience. I don’t just snap photos, I document the full vibe, from the big moments to the ones you might have missed. Expect dynamic, storytelling images that make you feel like you’re right back in it.
📌 Conferences, festivals, corporate events, private parties, and everything in between.

Branding Photography
Stand Out, Not Blend In
Stock photos and boring headshots? Nope. Whether you’re a creative, an entrepreneur, or a brand that refuses to play it safe, I create images that stop the scroll and connect with your audience. This isn’t just a photoshoot—it’s a visual identity session that brings your brand to life.
📌 Personal branding, small businesses, creatives, and out-of-the-box entrepreneurs.

Family Photography
Chaos is Welcomed
Forget the stiff, awkward family portraits—your family isn’t like that, so why should your photos be? My sessions are all about real moments, movement, and the beautiful chaos of life with kids. No forced smiles, no pressure to behave—just a relaxed, go-with-the-flow session where your kids get to be exactly who they are.
📌 In-home or outdoor sessions where the kids set the pace.
📸 Starting at $200 for a 20 minute session

Micro Weddings
Small in Scale, Big on Emotion
Not into the massive ballroom weddings? Good—neither am I. If you’re planning an intimate, meaningful wedding with just your people, I’m the photographer who’s going to capture the tears, the laughter, and those unspoken moments that matter most. No over-posed nonsense, just real love, beautifully documented.
📌 Elopements, backyard ceremonies, city hall vows, and uniquely you celebrations.
📸 Packages starting at $750 for 3 hours of coverage

FAQs
Who works with Matko Photo?
Those that want to be themselves. They are ok with images that are not facetuned or tweaked to where you can not recognize them. Those that can laugh and cry and smile with the eyes (if you want). Those that are self proclaimed easy going.
Where is Matko Photo located?
The great Hamilton area! I can drive to you but if you seem too far (not really a fan of big drives) I may have to recommend some other awesome photographer your way.
Retouching?
I can remove things that wont last past two weeks. Think those pesky little red friends, a bump or scratch or maybe a piece of lunch that got missed at the corner of the mouth. I will not reduce necks or any part of your body for that matter. I will not alter your current life. Your memories from the images I take, I want you to remember them truthfully.
I will enhance features you have, those beautiful eyes for example!
Matko Photo editing style?
My photography style? Think colourful, contrasty, and warm—the kind of images that radiate joy and connection.
I try to keep colours as close to they appear in life. I try and honour skin tones to the best of my ability. I try to edit like the cool kids these days but I can’t get on board with those trends.
What type of sessions do you offer?
In your home, in my home? Out and about and in the amazing studios there are these days. Studio rental fees are not included in my session rates. Sessions can be networking events, family photos, individual personality headshots, cake smashes, boudoir (let’s bring the heat), small weddings, BBQs, birthday, showers, branding. You get the idea!
I can’t afford your sessions :(
Do not fret my friend, let’s work something out! I love bartering, or other creative ways to receive compensation. Message me and let’s work something out! Also as a thank you to my previous clients, there is special pricing for them! Have we worked together before? That can help you :)
