Potok’s World Photography
Anji Martin is a wedding and portrait photographer who serves the D.C. metro area. Last year, she decided to expand my portfolio to include something that I, as a cat owner, am passionate about. Namely cat photography! When asked why she became a professional photographer, Anji says it’s because she believes that everyone, human or cat, deserves to have pictures of themselves that they can look back and smile at 5,10, 20 years or even a lifetime later! Anji’s journey taking pictures started at a young age when her father, who was tired of sharing his camera with her, bought her her own for her 5th birthday. She got her first professional-quality camera in 2006, and has since fallen in love with photography all over again. Anji got a degree from the New York Institute of Photography in 2012 and has been a member of Professional Photographers of America since early 2014. For more information, visit www.PotoksWorldPhotography.com.
