My own loves.
I’m Martina
Photography is how I experience the world & I feel grateful to be able to share this with you & show your family through my eyes & lens.
It’s deeper than that..
It’s more than just photos for me, photography has always felt like a universal language, with a single photo holding the ability to freeze a moment in time - the laughter, the connection, the beauty in all the small and big moments.
What inspires me?
My own journey into motherhood has been amazing but also a constant reminder that time goes so quickly.
As a mother myself I know how fleeting life’s precious moments can be. I’m all about creating an environment where you and your loved ones can be yourself so I can tell your true story.

Little Martina
Take a trip down memory lane, what would a ‘get to know me’ be without a look through the family album?
Born in Bangalore, India and arriving in Melbourne, Australia at the age of 2. My journey started with a blank slate of the English language where I relied on my neighbours to teach me the basics as I began primary school.
My love for photography started at a very young age when I used to dress my brother up in my dresses and ask him to pose while I took photos on the family camera. To this day I have no idea where those photos are, pretty sure my brother burned them.
My parents bought me a Canon 550d lens kit camera in high school and I experimented taking photos in my art classes. Having strict parents, they didn't encourage me to pursue photography as a profession or career so I completed a Bachelor of Business majoring in marketing and worked in marketing for over 10 years.
I picked the camera up again when I had my own kids and remembered how much I enjoyed it. Fast forward to today Martina Innocent Photography has been the best career change & I'm so happy for it.

I'm around my family snuggled up on the couch watching our favourite movie. Also when the kids eat all the food I have prepared for them and call me a chef.

Coffee, cannot start the day without it and when my kids come into our bed early morning and snuggle with us.

My husband and I quit our jobs in 2016 and went travelling all around Europe for 3 months. It was such a wonderful experience and so glad we got to do this before having kids. We visited 44 different cities and 20 countries and our favourite was Iceland.

I can't laugh out loud when I watch movies. Even if I find it funny.. my face has no emotion and my husband hates it because he will literally laugh at anything.
