Meet the Man Behind the Lens
Woody Martin, Creative Director of Photos By W
Hey there! I’m Woody Martin — the lead creative director of Photos By W — and I’m excited to officially welcome you into my world.
I’m a Haitian-American photographer and filmmaker based in Metro Atlanta, but my creative journey started years ago in Miami with a humble 1-megapixel digital camera. What began as a birthday gift quickly turned into a lifelong passion — and in 2017, that passion became a purpose when I launched Photos By W.
So… Who Am I, Really?
In short? I’m a whiskey-sippin’, chicken-lovin’ Southern gentleman with a camera in one hand and a mission in my heart. My artistic eye, sharp attention to detail, and reputation for fast, high-quality service have allowed me to grow Photos By W into more than just a business — it’s an experience.
I’ve built a name for myself by capturing genuine moments with emotional storytelling. Whether I’m documenting a wedding day, crafting corporate branding, or producing cinematic lifestyle visuals, I bring authenticity and artistry to every frame.
But what truly sets me apart? I don’t just show up — I connect. When I work with couples, we usually feel like old friends by the time their wedding day rolls around. I’m that guy who shows up smiling — not because it’s my job, but because I’m genuinely excited to celebrate and create with you.

Being a creative in this fast-paced world comes with its challenges — from market saturation to imposter syndrome — but I’ve learned how to navigate those waters with grit, grace, and a bit of Jack Daniels. My hope is that sharing my journey helps you, inspires you, or at the very least makes you feel like you’re not in it alone.
