Episode 47: Freelance photographer Martina Gemmola on freelancing, fibroids and fertility

2/7/2016

3 Comments

 
Even if you haven't heard of Martina Gemmola, you've probably seen her gorgeous images. As a freelance photographer (who is married to another freelance photographer!) she calmly negotiates her work life with parenting her young son. 

Martina generously shares her story of having a fibroid tumour in the wall of her uterus that scarily tripled in size until it was as large as a pawpaw. Thankfully, everything worked out fine and Martina fell pregnant with no issues.  

You can also listen on iTunes! We would love it if you left a review on iTunes too - there's a handy how-to here! ​

And here's the book about IVF that Tess mentions in the episode: Avalanche by Julia Leigh.

It came to me at a time in my life when I was doubtful and insecure about my goals of becoming a photographer. .
