Proposal photos have been one of my favorites to shoot lately.
Just so sweet & simple.
Check out the blog post about Gabby + Ade's proposal!

✨ I’m sure being a guy and planning a proposal may be nerve racking and stressful but also so incredibly special and so worth it! ✨ Little back story on this sweet proposal // Gabby came out to San Diego for the weekend for a bachelorette party. Well little did she know that Ade was flying out...

Little back story on this weekends proposal // Gabby came out to San Diego for the weekend for a bachelorette party. Well little did she know that Ade was flying out to San Diego right behind her to surprise her on the last night. All her friends were in on it and it was epic! The look on Gabby’s face when she turned around and found Ade behind her was priceless!
Being able to capture the proposal of Gabby + Ade this weekend was so special.
Congratulations again, Gabby & Ade! 🧡

Wow this morning was absolutely amazing! ✨
Araceli from got to be part of the dreamiest proposal. The last few weeks Araceli and I worked with Johnny to plan the perfect proposal out in the desert. We had Liz convinced that we needed models for a “styled shoot” for .co Little did she know we had this elaborate proposal all set up for her!
From driving out to the desert at 3 am to catch the sunrise to having code words to know when Johnny was ready to get down on one knee to setting them up back to back for Liz to only find that Johnny was asking her to marry him when she turned around....it was all absolutely perfect. Congratulations to & 🧡

Oh how I love family sessions. 🧡
Allowing the kids to be kids and run around is my favorite.
I want my photos to capture the truth behind having kids and a family, they aren’t always going to sit still, they are going to fight and push each other and drive mom and dad crazy, but they are also going to laugh and love and hug you until you fall over.
This shoot yesterday was definitely one of my favorites. 🧡 Adriana BUrgon

Hi there! My name is Martina, and I am so glad you are here. Let me tell you a little about myself!

I am lucky to say that I am a Southern California local, but have not always been, I was born in Russia and moved here at a very young age. I still have a very close connection to my roots and culture & I am so thankful for that.
​
I love being creative, whether I am taking photos, cooking, crafting, or gardening. Being creative gets me excited and drives my passion for photography.
​
I love being able to capture the story of two individuals on their big day. I love being able to connect personally with each and every one of my clients & ensuring that their day is as special as they envisioned it, but I am simply there to capture it and not take away from it.

A bit more about me...
- I have a pup named Nugget who melts my heart.
- My family and boyfriend mean the world to me, and are the best support system and my biggest fans.
- I have turned my house into a jungle...like no joke there are over 200 plants & are thriving!
- I have a passion for traveling and embracing new & different cultures.
​
Now that you know a bit about me, I would love to know more about you & your love story. Let's create something beautiful.
​
Xx,
Martina

✨ Laughter feeds the soul ✨
Could not have asked for a better way to spend my Monday night. Grabbed my camera, a bottle of wine and this lovely lady. Lots of laughs and few black widows later, had an amazing night shooting with .sawa //
