WHAT PEOPLE SAY

NATSUMI

I could feel and see by Martin's perspective, the class cleared my vision and helped me to have a more professional look at cosplay photography.

JAMIE L.

As a long time fan of Martins work, it’s great to get tips and critiques from him. While I’ve been a photographer for quite some time, Cosplay photography is a unique style that Martin is the absolute expert in.

ROSS C.

I’ve so far been doing photography for about 6 months and have been learning as I go, accompanied by all of the fun rookie mistakes. Martin is full of knowledge and advice that has helped me get a started a feel confident about what I’m doing.
