A talented photographer captures the magical connection between children and animals by creating portraits of them together.

Andrea Martin is an international award-winning children's portrait photographer in Beaver, West Virginia with eight years of experience in the field.

Andrea says of her work: “There is something magical about the interactions between children and animals, so I focus on capturing the innocence of the connection between them. Each image emphasizes this connection with a vibrant, yet almost fairytale-like feel. fun and creative."

She puts a lot of effort into every detail of the look - from wardrobe and hand placement to hairstyles.

"There are so many things that go into creating the perfect image. Even the smallest details can change a photo from good to amazing," says Andrea.

She shoots with a Nikon D750 and uses either a 35mm or 85mm lens.
