Martin and Cindy met in 1999 and soon realized they had many things in common. They both loved traveling to unique locations; they were both interested in photography and they were both in the Information Technology field.

Martin is a native of Ohio, USA. He grew up hiking and camping various state and local parks around Ohio. Cindy was born in Canada but moved around most of her life as her father was in the military. She attributes her love of travel and different landscapes to the fact that although she has been to many places in the world, she hasn't made a dent in her list of places still to see. Cindy and Martin are now married and reside in Dayton Ohio. Every spare moment will find them either traveling to, or planning a trip, to an amazing place. They both believe that you can savor the memory of a place with photography and that leaving it as you found it for future generations is THE most important thing a person can do.

Martin and Cindy started their photographic careers using manual 35mm cameras then moved to Digital SLR's after a few years. Martin also uses large format as he loves the detail and large size of the photographs that this camera can give him. If you are going to take the time to make an image it should be the best image possible. Both have had their images published in leading photography books as well as in various advertisements.
