Hey, I am Martina

The smell of chemicals in the bathroom, the glow of red light, and the prints hanging on a clothes rack over the tub... those are some of my earliest memories. And honestly, they still shape how I shoot today.

Hey, I am Martina

– and honestly, I’ve never stopped creating. These days, my camera is my paintbrush, and I get to capture the little stories that make your world beautiful.

“I’ve always been drawn to Beauty — even before I knew it was art.”

As a little girl, I was always creating. Painting, scribbling poems in my notebook, watching how the light danced through windows. My world was made of stories — and I loved finding ways to tell them. We had a proper old-school Zenit camera in our home — the kind with no auto settings, no shortcuts. I remember holding it in my small hands, knowing that every click mattered . Every photo had to be carefully thought through, composed with intention.

Life took me on a different path — but it always led back to the lens.

For a while, photography faded into the background. I followed a different road, as many of us do. But when my niece was born — and later, my son — something stirred again. I wanted to freeze time . To document the way they changed, grew, laughed, became little humans in the blink of an eye. So, I picked up my camera once more. This time not just as an artist… but as a mother. And that's when it all clicked (pun intended 😉). The irony? My son doesn’t like having his photo taken. 🙈 But maybe that’s part of the magic — it taught me to chase the unseen moments. The in-between glances, the tiny touches, the quiet love that often goes unnoticed.

The best moments aren’t posed.
They’re felt.

Natural Moments

My favourite images are the ones where no one knows I’m taking the shot.
The laugh that slips out. The tender glance. The wild joy that bubbles up naturally.

That’s what I want to give you.
Not just a photo session — but a space to be.

To connect. To play. To love

I’ll be there, quietly documenting it all, so you can hold onto those memories forever.

Why I Do This?

I believe your memories deserve to be more than just pixels on a screen.

I believe in storytelling. In pausing time. In turning your ordinary chaos into something utterly beautiful. And most of all — I believe your love deserves to be remembered exactly as it is. So bring the kids, the dog, the muddy boots, the wild hugs. I’ll bring the camera — and a heart that knows just what to do with it.
