Nature and Wildlife Photography

Growing up in central Pennsylvania, Martha was one of those kids who was completely enamored with the wild kingdom. As an adult, little has changed. Her mission as a photographer is to raise awareness and enthusiasm for preserving our limited natural treasures. Martha takes all images with the utmost respect and consideration for the animals and their environment. Many even receive a gracious “Thank You” when parting.

 

Martha develops, frames and autographs all images herself using acid-free materials, and happily accepts special orders and commissions. A portion of the proceeds are donated to several environmental and animal welfare charities including (but not limited to) the World Wildlife Fund, National Wildlife Federation, Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, and the Audubon Society.  All images were captured spontaneously with a digital SLR camera. The subjects are real, not posed, and reside in the environment in which they were photographed.

 

Martha lives in Blue Springs, Missouri with her husband Jim, Joey the mutt, three cats Marty, Jackie and Annie, and several wild backyard visitors.

 

Thank you for your interest!
