About Martha Marks

I’m a former college professor with a two-sided creative life.

Betting on Bernie, A Memoir of a Marriage, the winner of two gold medals and one silver medal in international book competitions and also an international #1 top-seller in several categories, is now available on Amazon. Learn more about it at this separate website.

On this side…

I’m a wildlife and nature photographer who specializes in “shooting” birds. I love creating great images as a way of sharing with others the beauty of natural places and wild creatures.

Over forty years, I’ve made tens of thousands of quality images; licensed thousands; published hundreds; and printed, framed, and sold fifty or sixty. I switched from film to digital in 2004 and never looked back.

In 2017, I began producing HD videos. I advanced to 4K in 2019 and now focus my efforts mostly on that.

For decades, I traveled the Great American West with my late husband, fine-art painter Bernard Marks (bernardmarksfineart.com). We lived (and I still live) in Santa Fe, New Mexico, surrounded by fabulous natural areas. But we were (and I still am) within a few hours of some of North America’s other amazing places… Colorado, Arizona, and Utah.

This website gives me a way to share some of my own fine-art film and panoramic digital images, as well as the computer-enhanced creations that I call “Avian Impressions” and a small sample of my fast-growing 4K video portfolio.

Here’s a direct link to my portfolio on Adobe Stock, the best of four commercial stock photography sites that I’ve authorized to represent my work. There you can see many more of my images than I can post here and, if you wish, license them for your own uses.

I hope you’ll enjoy my photographic artwork!

On the other side…

I’m also the author of Rubies of the Viper, a romantic-suspense novel set in first-century Rome and Syria. With 270+ reader reviews on Amazon, it maintains a rating of 4.2/5. On Goodreads, with 300+ reader reviews, it’s 3.6/5.

My second novel, The Viper Amulet, is the sequel to Rubies of the Viper. With 30+ ratings, it’s 4.7/5 stars on Amazon. On Goodreads, with 19 reader reviews, it’s 4.8/5.

My newly published third novel, The Ruby Ring, concludes that Ruby-Viper Trilogy.

In 2023, I also published a personal, true-life story called Betting on Bernie: A Memoir of a Marriage.
