Meet Thomas Martinez: The Vision Behind Photos by TM
Boudoir photography isn’t just about taking beautiful photos—it’s about capturing confidence, strength, and self-love. I’m Thomas Martinez, the founder of Photos by TM, and my mission is to help you see yourself the way you deserve to be seen.
A Creative Journey to Photography
I come from a family of artists. My grandfather and mother were painters, and while I admired their talent, I struggled to find my own creative outlet. I experimented with drawing, sculpting, and studying art history, but nothing truly clicked—until I found photography.
With photography, I could blend my love for art with a modern medium, creating images inspired by the great painters and sculptors of history. And in boudoir, I found the perfect way to honor the human form, just as artists have done for centuries.
Why Boudoir?
Boudoir is more than a photoshoot. It’s an experience that allows you to embrace yourself fully, without hesitation or doubt.
I chose boudoir photography because I believe everyone deserves to feel beautiful, confident, and empowered. Too often, people are their own harshest critics. My goal is to change that.
Through my lens, I want you to see what the world sees—strength, beauty, and individuality. You are no different than the iconic muses that have inspired artists for generations. You deserve to be celebrated.
A Session Designed for You
I know stepping in front of the camera can be intimidating, but that’s where I come in.
We plan everything together, so you feel completely prepared.
I provide a preparation guide so you feel confident leading up to your session.
I guide every pose—you don’t need any modeling experience.
I create a relaxed, fun environment with music, conversation, and plenty of laughs.
I specialize in studio lighting to highlight your best features and create timeless, artistic images.
Your job? Just show up and be yourself. I take care of the rest.

What I Want You to Take Away
More confidence. More self-love. More appreciation for who you are right now.
When you see your final images, I want you to recognize the power and beauty that has always been there. Boudoir photography isn’t about transformation—it’s about revealing what already exists.
Let’s Create Something Incredible
If you’re ready to step in front of the camera and see yourself in a whole new way, I’d love to work with you.
