Max Sydko Photography is a Missouri-based wedding photography studio specializing in candid, emotional, and editorial storytelling. With 17+ years of experience and 500+ weddings photographed across 7 countries, Max is known for creating images that feel natural, cinematic, and full of real emotion.
Rather than turning your wedding into a photo shoot, we focus on what is actually happening — the quiet moments, the laughter, the happy tears, the energy of your people, and all the little things you may not notice in the moment. When it’s time for portraits, we bring an editorial approach that feels intentional without feeling stiff or overly posed.
Based in Springfield, Missouri, Max Sydko Photography serves couples throughout Missouri and the surrounding 4-state region. Max is a 2024 & 2025 award-winning wedding photographer and takes on a limited number of weddings each year to give every couple a highly personal experience.
