Meet Thomas Martinez: The Photographer Behind Photos by TM
Photography isn’t just my profession—it’s my passion. It’s how I connect with people, tell their stories, and remind them of their own power.
A Creative Path to Photography
I come from a family of artists. My grandfather and mother were painters, and while I tried my best to follow in their footsteps, painting wasn’t for me. I explored drawing, sculpting, and studying art history before discovering photography. That was the moment everything clicked.
With photography, I could take inspiration from my favorite painters and sculptors while creating something entirely my own. Every image I capture is influenced by the great artists who came before me, combining light, composition, and emotion to create something timeless.
Why Boudoir and Personal Branding?
Boudoir: The Art of the Human Form
The human form has been celebrated in every art medium throughout history. Boudoir photography is my way of continuing that tradition. My goal is to make every person who steps in front of my camera feel like the muse of a masterpiece.
You don’t have to be a model—you just have to be you. My job is to pose you, light you, and capture your unique beauty. You are no different than the iconic muses throughout history, and I make sure you see that for yourself.
Personal Branding: Show the World Who You Are
We live in a digital age where people don’t just want to see a headshot—they want to see you. Whether you're a business professional, an entrepreneur, or someone building a social media presence, your personal brand matters.
I help clients go beyond the stiff corporate headshot and create images that reflect who they truly are. Professional, approachable, dynamic—whatever message you want to send, I make sure your photos tell that story.
