Professional, experienced and fast

They saved the day! Our original photographer was injured but Michael and his team swooped in and were available at a moments notice. Fantastic service for all your photography needs, cannot recommend them highly enough.

Exceptional.

Michael was courteous, patient, understanding and extremely professional. Our wedding pictures have been described as "these are the best wedding pictures I've ever seen!". Michael also filmed and edited our wedding video. This too was outstanding. Both Joan, my wife and I, are very satisfied and highly recommend to anyone searching for outstanding results and great value to go with Michael Gladkey. Btw, he has also done my author photo for my book, which constantly continues to receive positive feedback.
Sincerely,
George Halpern

All around great team!!

Don’t hesitate for a second, they are a very professional team!
We hired Michael and his team for our wedding reception on a relatively short time frame, price was more than reasonable and they made everyone feel comfortable and made sure to get photographs of all the guests. We received an initial pack of the more important photos very quickly and the rest of the photos came in a couple days later, the overall result was wonderful!

Say yes to the Michael!

He took a bit to respond at first but Michael really helped us out with our photo session. We wanted our photos to be taken at Mt Robie Reid, Michael was exceptionally diligent and came with us to the lake with all his gear (which was quite the hike!!) and took some amazing pictures of us at this beautiful site when other photographers were unwilling to do the hike even at a higher pay. Forever grateful

Michael Gladkey
Michael Gladkey
Photographer

My name is Michael.

I have been passionately immersed in the creative world of photography and visual effects for over a decade, operating as an independent photographer and VFX artist across Metro Vancouver.

Transitioning from a successful career in the VFX industry, where my work has graced the big screen in films like Sonic 2 (2022), Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022), and Jumanji (2019), I've pivoted to prioritize my full-time role in photography; particularly since the onset of COVID and the 2023 US Writers strike shut down the VFX industry in BC.

This shift has allowed me to channel my creative energy and expertise into capturing captivating moments through both photography, as well as video services (which I began offering in 2020), leveraging my extensive experience in video production.

Collaborating with various local studios and esteemed creators, I am dedicated to delivering unparalleled quality in both photography and cinematography, all while maintaining a commitment to affordability for my valued clients.

Over the years I’ve had the privilege of creating lasting memories all across the world - my work has been highlighted in competitions and awards, and the time that I’m not busy with photoshoots, I spend donating my time with local sports teams and organizations.
