John Martinez is a Quebecer of Salvadoran origin based in Montréal.
He's passionate about cinema and it's through the 7th art
that he learns to appreciate all aspects related to visual arts
and image building. He loves behind-the-scenes photos,
"making of" documentaries and everything related to the creative process.

He falls in love a second time, now with photography.
He uses his cinematic influences to create small worlds
around his subjects that allow him to capture unique introspective portraits.
