WHY I DO THIS...
Kenzie and Faith
A special thank you to Marty. This was such a great experience, at the same time a very hot day at the sunflower farm.
He made us feel very at ease and comfortable. To sum it up, he bought out the best in us and this is a day that we won't forget.
Awesome vibes and awesome guy. Would highly recommend this service. Our photos came amazing.
Cate and Bob
We loved working with Marty for our family photo session. He was relaxed and easy going which made us all relax and have fun.
Marty was also keen to go with our slightly crazy ideas - down on the farm with gumboots, musical instruments and a bit of cricket and netball thrown in for good measure! Would definitely recommend Marty to anyone!!
Tania and Ratu
Marty captured our family of six in an outdoors portrait session. He was extremely adaptable to our needs. He put us all at ease during the shoot and came up with a fabulous selection of pictures - even better than what we had asked for! I highly recommend Marty Brown Portraiture for a fantastic experience from start to finish. We recently gifted one of the pictures to our mum for her birthday and she was absolutely thrilled.
STILL NOT SURE?
