What I'm all about.
Let me give ya the lowdown on
Let's take some photos before we kick the bucket. It's dark, I know. But when we, or someone we love, does depart for the great nothingness, photos are what remain. Photos that can be held close, discovered, and passed down. Spurring nostalgic laughter, heavy tears, and comfort. The perfect photo doesn't matter when it's all we have left. Inevitably, all the photos I take will become the embers of loved-ones.
here's a glimpse of me, and my why:
Hey there, I'm Martin.
The feeling I wasn't prepared for when I started all of this years ago, was knowing that there are photos and videos out there that will exist seemingly forever. Embers of loved-ones, where I captured their genuine selves before their passing. I also value the curiosity that comes with unpacking an old box of images; blowing off the dust, sorting through frames and albums, and flipping through pictures that you sometimes have to peel apart from one another. I do this to look back on people I didn't know and get a glimpse of who they were.
It's scary (and moving) to have that role in the Universe. I'm a certified goofball with a degree in nerding-out on Star Wars, Theatre, Animation, and so much more! I went to school for film studies + communication, where I fell in love with the art of storytelling. I'm all about transparency and unraveling emotion. I deal with anxiety, and if you have any anxious feelings about your session, I hope that I can lessen any worry. Or at the very least, we can be anxious together. ✌🏼

"Martin welcomed ideas from the creative team and offered many of his own that improved the product beyond our original vision. His talents have seriously aided in my effort to promote the play to the theatre community. Having him involved in your project would make it 100-times more fantastic and professional."
"an intelligent artist with a rare capacity for creative collaboration."
