Based in Slovakia and working worldwide, he is renowned for creating emotional, elegant, and timeless wedding photography.

Whether it’s a romantic wedding in the Alps, a beach ceremony in Spain, or an exclusive event in South America, he brings a perfect blend of professionalism, creativity, and cultural sensitivity. Martin’s photographic journey began in South America (Paraguay), where he refined his skills and developed his natural, storytelling approach.

He currently serves as the President of the Association of Professional Photographers of Slovakia, is a Board Member of the Federation of European Professional Photographers (FEP), and a Committee Member of the World Photographic Cup (WPC) – roles that underline his leadership in the global photography community.
