As a Boston Family Photographer, my goal is to help every family in Boston capture their memories and enjoy the photos for a lifetime.

The first thing that people ask about when selecting a photographer is their rate. Many photographers have a very difficult to understand pricing model. However, as I have hired photographer myself, I understand the need of someone who is looking to hire a photographer. Therefore, creating an easy to understand pricing model was my ultimate goal. I charge one flat rate for my family portrait session which includes the digital files, all edited photos. Additionally, there is no cost for someone until they have seen the editing photos. Payment is only made once they are satisfied and happy with their family photos.

Getting to know the family that I am photographing has been a key to my success. That is why I ask for a family photo and names during the booking process. Names are the most important word to a person. By getting kid’s name during the first encounter Mat has created trust between them.

Trust. It is this that people looking for a photographer hire Mat Tam Photography. They believe in the work that I produce and like what they saw in my portfolio.

There is a photographer that specializes in candid photos, some specialize in posed shots. I consider myself as somewhere in between. I believe a mixture of candid and posed shots are the best balance between both worlds. While having some posed shots is great for putting in the photo frame. Candid shots are great for displaying as a piece of art. The best photography allows a person to look at a photo and emerge into that specific moment and feel the sense during that time.
