Testimonials

  • "Mathew was extremely professional and easy to work with. The final output of photography for our Mountain Bike launch photoshoot hit the nail on the head and achieved our brief to a T. His eye for detail and creative input was very much appreciated."

    Ashley Reid - Product Marketing Lead, Norco Bicycles

  • Scenic landscape of mountains, a lake, and grassy hills with cloudy sky

    "We hired Mathew to get a range of updated summer images in the Bike Park and around the mountain. He adapted to the varying weather conditions we had and delivered a well-rounded set of photographs that captured the essence of our summer season and core riders without feeling staged or inauthentic. Mathew was super easy to communicate with and self-sufficient on site, directing the models and finding locations that best worked for the action, lighting and scenery."

    Bree Tombs - Content Specialist, SilverStar Mountain Resort

  • A mountain landscape with snow-capped peaks in the background and a house or building on a grassy hillside in the foreground.

    "Working with Mathew Wanbon is always an absolute pleasure. His approach is not only highly professional and full of integrity, but he also has the ability to dig below the surface of his subjects. This results in stunning photographs and engaging writing that truly add life and relevance to every story he tells."

    Martin Littlejohn - Executive Director, MBTA/Mountain Biking BC
