FAMILY REVIEWS * * * * * “The whole experience was so beautifully positive. Martine makes you feel relaxed and confident and she produces the most gorgeous photos – she really is a master of the work she does. I can’t recommend Martine enough” “Martine has a magical way of making every shot work. It isher for a shoot. the timing of Martine’s shots that captures the candid and natural beauty of family interaction, that we love so much. We treasure all our photos for this very reason. Martine has such a creative eye, and her passion for what she does really shows in her work. Feeling so lucky to have found a photographer that understands exactly what we are after every time we book her for a shoot. Thank you Martine. You are amazing!”
MATERNITY REVIEW * * * * * “We had such a fantastic maternity shoot with Martine. I always have reservations about getting photos done as my husband and I are always a little awkward in front of the camera but Martine put us at ease and offered some guidance while also giving lots of space for us to be ourselves. I am in love with all of the images!”
MOTHERHOOD MINI REVIEW * * * * * “An exceptionally professional and exhilarating experience. I am overjoyed to have found Martine and am so glad I invited her into our home. I fell in love with her work instantly but didn’t think my own shots would compare to her other work- but boy was I wrong! Not only do I feel empowered and so in love with what my body has created and achieved, but I am so grateful that she has captured such a milestone in our lives in a raw and natural way. The best thing I’ve ever done for myself.”
