If you’re wondering what a session costs, what’s included, and whether it’s a good fit, you’ll find the details for each session type below. I’m based in Poultney and photograph all over Vermont, from Castleton and Wells to Manchester, Rutland, and the lakeside towns in between.
Sessions include more than just images — you get my full support from start to finish. I’ll help with choosing the right location, outfit styling, finding the best light and timing, posing, printing recommendations, and more. My goal is to make the entire process easy and comfortable.
The uncontrollable laughter, goofy expressions, and quiet intimacy—that’s what I’m here for. To document this season of life for you. I’ll still get the smiling, look-at-the-camera shots (Grandma still needs a Christmas card), but my approach is built around the activities and routines that make up your everyday. Sessions lean documentary, shot with a cinematic, film-inspired eye (less posing, more attention to lighting and composition, etc.) And the best part? You can fart all you want during photos, and future generations will never know you were absolutely crop-dusting everyone else in the frame.

Our shoot was an incredible experience. Martin was an absolute gem throughout our entire process. We bonded really quickly and I feel like we have made a friend! We were in it together, in the humidity, crouched down with the bugs in the grass. I would not have changed anything. We plan to have our prints through Martin because, frankly, he is the only one we could trust with the love and care our photos have received. I will literally come back to him forever. We could not recommend him enough!!!
"Martin's sense of humor - just a naturally funny guy and he made us feel relaxed on a crazy hectic day. Also, his SKILLS straight-up, I work in the creative industry and Martin is a true artist. His ability to use light effectively in challenging lighting scenarios is phenomenal. Nick and I were so comfortable in front of Martin and the camera."
"Martin has a true gift of talent. He keeps the mood super light, and fun but still very professional. We literally spent the whole day laughing sooo hard!! I really appreciate the fact that if you have an idea or vision of something, he listens to you and gives you honest feedback, which is very important. He knows how to capture the moment and really make it special."
I approach every session collaboratively. We’ll talk through ideas, what matters to you, and how you want the images to feel. I'll offer my guidance and plan for how we can make it all happen.
Life is so much more than smiling for the camera. Sure, we'll get those shots, but candids always end up being faves. If kids want to pretend to be velociraptors, let them. They'll want to come back.
If you have a sense of humor we're going to get along GREAT. I try and keep sessions light and humorous to ease any anxieties you may have. Crack those dirty jokes.
Each service has its own page with everything you need to know: how sessions work, my approach, what’s included, recent stories, and transparent pricing. It’s all laid out clearly so you can get a real sense of the experience before reaching out so you can decide if it feels like the right fit. No vague “starting at” numbers.
While you do get printing rights to your images, ordering through the gallery supports me and my work! And the quality of the products are top notch.
Before we get started, I'll always take time for introductions and talking through the plan. We'll keep things easygoing, pivot as needed, and let things unfold. I’ll offer direction when you need it.
Reach out, share what you’re hoping to document, and we’ll talk through timing, location, and ideas together. I only shoot one full session a day, so I require a deposit to reserve your spot!
