Jillian’s work is authentic, real and personal. To that end, Jillian believes in creating a personal relationship with talent as she feels it helps create a unique authenticy on camera which can make a performance seem effortlessly genuine.

She believes in owing her shots and as a result, often prefers to operate the camera herself when she can. Whether she is repelling from a rock-climbing wall while carrying a camera or submerged underwater in the middle of the ocean she is always committed to pulling off the right shot. In addition to her expanding commercial work, Martin shot and is currently in post on a youth sports driven feature documentary, as well as a pilot for a wanderlust travel television show.
