About
Born and raised on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, Martin ‘Marty’ Robertson spent nearly two decades as a professional snowboarder. His journey into photography began during his early career, traveling the world and documenting the people, places, and raw moments that defined life on the road. These experiences sparked a deep, lifelong love for storytelling through the lens—an artistic calling that would eventually shape his second career.
Spending much of his snowboarding life in front of the camera, Marty developed a sharp eye for composition, motion, and emotion. His appreciation for sport, balance, movement, and a refined lifestyle helped cultivate a visual style that blends energy with elegance. Upon retiring from competitive snowboarding, Marty turned his focus to life behind the lens.
In 2012, he relocated to Mammoth Lakes, California, where he studied photography under two acclaimed mentors. Immersed in the disciplines of automotive, action, lifestyle, and fashion photography, Marty gained hands-on experience and technical knowledge while collaborating with some of the industry’s most respected creatives.
Now based in Orange County, California with his two sons, Sage and Koa, Marty specializes in commercial photography. His work is cinematic in tone, supported by strong post-production skills, a refined eye for detail, and a passion for storytelling. From art direction and branding to visual narrative and campaign strategy, Marty helps brands bring their vision to life in a way that captivates audiences and communicates purpose.
In addition to his role behind the camera, Marty wears many hats on set—directing, producing, AC, digi tech and collaborating with other creatives to ensure every production exceeds expectations. His versatility and understanding of the full creative process make him an invaluable contributor whether he’s leading a shoot or supporting a larger team.
A creative entrepreneur and content strategist, Marty also partners with small businesses on social media content, web campaigns, and brand development. He brings the same level of professionalism and creativity to intimate shoots as he does to major commercial productions—because every story deserves to be told with excellence.
For Marty, imagery is only half the story. To truly engage and drive growth, a compelling narrative must be woven into every frame. Great photography captures more than just a moment—it stirs emotion, creates connection, and invites the audience into an experience. His goal is always to represent each brand authentically, thoughtfully, and with forward-thinking creativity that resonates long after the image is seen.
