My name is Martin Savage, I have always had a keen eye for photography ever since childhood. So being a bit of a concert geek, back in 2016 I thought I would look for the best camera to suit my needs for live music photography as a hobby. At the time the Canon's 5D Mark 3 seemed the top contender, with the Canon F2.8 70-200mm I.S U.S.M II lens. Prior to this I had been practising with a 750D. I then added the Canon 5D Mark 4 in 2018 to my kit, and recently the mirrorless Canon R5 which I would say is Cannon's flagship camera for the shoots that I do to date. All 4 cameras are a dream to work with.

​

I started doing family photography in surroundings that the kids and pets can run around and be themselves. I love candid shots as they naturally show off individual personalities. I then went onto christenings and local events, which landed me a job at Club Amadeus in Northallerton, Yorkshire. I love meeting lots of fresh faces and making new friends. I volunteered to do the Northallerton Town Carnival. Which again helped me test out new skills and become known in the community. 

 

Today, not a lot has changed with the way I shoot. I pride myself on candid shots and capturing the moments as they happen.

​

I love any job I get asked to do, either it be weddings, christenings, family shoots, live music, sports, local events... anything you can throw at me is a challenge to test my skills and learn some new ones.

​

I would class myself as a journalistic photographer. Most shoots that I do, capture the magic of the day as natural as possible. I will grab those all important group shots, but the idea is for you to get on with your day and enjoy yourself.
