MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER
RUCEL MARTINEZ
Remember that one time, as a kid, when your grandpa (or dad or aunt) set down whatever they were doing to pay complete attention to you?
Hi, my name is Rusty. When you book a shoot with me, I’m all in. There’s nowhere I’d rather be than helping you create new memories you’ll cherish forever. Every session, whether you’re a high school senior, parent, or bride, is an opportunity for you to gather family and add something new to your story.
What’s next in your story?

Testimonials
“Rusty is a very talented photographer. Our photos from the session with him are magical. Being photographed is not a favorite pastime of mine but Rucel made it fun and the results are brilliant. Don’t pass up a chance to work with this photographer. You won’t regret it!”
“Neither my husband nor I are fond of having our pictures taken but Rusty made our time into a fun and crazy adventure! He was patient with us, showed us how he’d like us to stand, walk, sit, put our hands and arms, all in a fun way, making us laugh and have fun. He made it so much fun, I’d be willing to do it again!”
“Rusty shows you how an experienced photographer doesn’t just take pictures, they create space to capture life’s real moments.”

MY work
With 20+ weddings under my belt and countless family and senior sessions, I’m confident handling whatever you throw at me. My style is warm and composed, with an eye for geometry and symmetry.
My Gear
I shoot with an Olympus OMD-EM1 MKII as my primary shooter, and the EM5 MKII as my second. My favorite lenses are the 12-40mm f2.8 PRO and the 25mm f1.2 PRO.
