HI, I’M martin
Hey there! I’m Martin, a Sydney wedding photographer with a love of adventure, the outdoors, and meeting new people.
I’m the kind of authentic, candid wedding photographer who loves to tell a unique story with my camera, and I have a keen eye for the little details that make every wedding unique.
Whether it’s a fleeting moment of shared laughter between the couple or the best man cracking up at his own groan-inducing dad joke, I’m there to capture it all!
Documentary style wedding photographer in Sydney
Throughout my life, I’ve always had a passion for committing everything to film. I was the guy in my friend group who had a camera full of everyone’s most embarrassing moments (including my own)!
In my work capturing wedding photos in Sydney and beyond, I apply my natural eye for details in order to document absolutely everything on your special day. When I’m working, I’m always on the move, looking out for the little moments that matter most.
"There are few things that inspire and excite me more than photography!"
My life as a wedding photographer started when I began photographing small weddings in Sydney for my family and friends. These early photoshoots quickly ignited a passion for shooting weddings, and I knew it was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
I’m a big believer in forming a close personal relationship with every couple I photograph. When you truly know a couple and what makes their love special, you’re able to bring that out in the images you capture in the form of organic, warm wedding photography that’s authentic, romantic, and totally unique to them.
“Every wedding, every shoot, I see the world through a whole new lens. Your story will be different from the last, and this ignites my passion all over again.”
Weddings can be overwhelming, but through it all, I’ll be by your side to help you relax and just be yourself. By the time your wedding arrives, we’ll already have formed a tight bond, so on the big day we can just relax and chat with each other like old friends :)
I love to arrive at a photoshoot early so that I can meet everyone in your wedding party, get to know your family a bit (and let them get to know me), and maybe crack a joke or two with the kids.
Throughout the day, I’ll be by your side helping you prepare for pictures and providing advice whenever you need it. I can also be that guy who corrals your most chaotic friends and makes sure everyone stays under control (and at least semi-sober).
My main goal is to bring positive energy to the room so everyone can feel at ease and we can get the most organic, authentic photos possible. People are at their most beautiful when they're being true to themselves and not trying to put on a show, and that’s the kind of honest, candid vibe I always aim to inspire in every wedding I shoot.
Rain, hail or shine, I won’t miss a beat.
There’s nothing I love more than escaping the city and looking for an adventure in the heart of the wilderness. I’m a sucker for camping or hitting the day hikes, and I truly believe there’s nothing better in this world than campfire food and late night stories.
When I’m not out exploring nature, you can find me spending time with family and friends smashing that big breakie plate with a bucket of coffee on a day off.
Even when I'm not working, I always feel compelled to document what’s happening around me. I love revisiting old photographs of life events, reliving moments that might have been lost forever if I hadn’t had the good fortune to preserve them on film.
My mission is to emphasise how important it is to have your art printed and hung on the wall, or at least kept safe in an album. The more time passes, the more you’ll realise just how valuable these keepsakes of bygone moments truly are.
There's nothing better than a good hike!

WE NEVER THOUGHT THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY LOOK GOOD IN PHOTOGRAPHS. MARTINS APPROACH WAS TO SIMPLY HAVE A GOOD TIME, AND CREATE SOME BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES.

I don’t believe in forced smiles. I only photograph the real thing.
