"Much love to this man and his family! The places he is willing to drag a camera along to show the world what incredible spots lay just outside what we knew before are something to keep an eye on. I have been lucky enough to join on a few of the more tame adventures like whitewater paddling in winter and dragging a sit ski into places one had never been before, still very outside the box. Listening to his passion for the outdoors and what it can do for so many lives is something that sets this guy apart from a photographer. Always looking forward to seeing what you're up to Jimmy!"
— Alex Cairns, Incredible Spirit, Friend, Para Olympian
"Jimmy is a breath of fresh air to work with. He’s positive, easygoing and accommodating. He definitely makes you feel like a partnership is more like a friendship…..just all around lovely."
— Laura Fergusson, Manager, Ambassadors & Events - Mustang Survival
"Jimmy is a frequent contributor of Mountain Life magazine and no matter the topic covered in his
photos, you can be sure they’ll warm your heart and those of the readers."
— Amelie Legare, Creative Director for Mountain Life Media
"Jimmy represents the best intersection of adventure meets art. He's got the eye to capture the perfect moment and the ambition to be in the right place to get it. The only thing that surpasses his work is his ability to make the most extreme of adventures feel like one of the best experiences of your life."
— Andrew Sheppard, Director/Producer
"Over the years I've been on numerous extended trip with Jimmy ranging from Standup Paddle touring/ surf trips in remote regions to the highest mountains in the coast range on 1st descents on skis. Jimmy brings an energy and organization to the team that creates a really well balanced group who love to share inspiring experiences with others. His creative eye behind the camera in any environment speaks for itself in the content he captures."
— Chris Christie
"Going on an adventure with Jimmy is always the highlight of my year. He is so positive and talented that we always have a great time together and he captures the moment with his wonderful photography."
— Damien Kelly, Damien Kelly Designs
"Jimmy Martinello's talent with a camera is more than just technical acuity. He puts his heart into every shot and a viewer feels the soulfulness of his interaction with his subject matter in each photograph. A consummate professional and dedicated watersportsman, you'll find Jimmy working on his craft even on his day off while spending time in the waters he enriches in BC. One of a kind."
"Generous & kind. Passionate & fun loving – working with Jimmy is always a joy. He lives, works and plays by his values and brings you into his extended family, so that it never feels like work when you connect with him. From climbing to paddling – I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jimmy on various brand campaigns and photo shoots for over 10 years and hope to continue into the future doing more of the same."
