Hey. Hey,

My name is Martin, I'm 20 years old and I've been taking pictures since I first borrowed an old cell phone and tried to capture the world as I see it. Photography has kept me shooting every day since then. It's not just a hobby - it's a way for me to express myself, to slow down and see beauty where others might miss it.

My biggest passion? Cars. I love their lines, their details, the atmosphere they create around me. I try to capture not only the machines, but also the emotions they evoke in us.

I only shoot on my phone all the time - I do the best I can with what I have. But the more I do it, the more I feel that my phone is starting to limit me. I've never been able to get a proper camera. It's only now that I thought I'd try to go against my dream... and ask for help.

I'd like to get my first camera and take my work a step further. I don't want anything over the top, just a tool that will allow me to grow and create with my heart and eyes.

The photos I'm attaching are from my cell phone - not perfect, but they are mine. They are moments that grabbed me by the heart.

I apologize if some of them are rotated - I uploaded them so they can be seen in their entirety.

Everyone who supports me - whether financially, by sharing or just by reading this far - is helping me fulfill a dream I've carried for many years. Thank you for every encouragement. I appreciate it more than I can say.
