Light bulb Moment
My light bulb moment in this industry was when I was able to see the light! I used to struggle to work out if I was shooting a baby or subject correctly. People used to talk about butterfly light and Rembrant light and I never used to be able to see if. I remember the day I saw it and it changed everything for me. That was day I really knew that i was going to be a successful photographer. Love Alana X

THEMES
Themes Its so much fun to be able to create themed newborn sessions for some of my clients. I certainly cannot make every concept happen but am happy to try if i know that it is within my scope. This little family clearly had their heart set on the harry potter theme and walah we made it happen. Let me know if there is any ideas you want to try out and i can see what i can come up with.

Photography Inspo
Photography Inspiration I love my career and taking photos because i think that there is something wonderful about capturing time. Those first few weeks of life go by so quickly and you forget how small they really were. You forget to appreciate all the things that are hard about about a new baby.

5 YEARS
I like to be goal orientated and thought why not put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and create where I would like yo be in 5 years with my career:
I would love to be still running a successful business. I never want to have to go back to a normal job working for somebody else. I would love to be traveling and doing workshops interstate and overseas but at this point I am just happy to have loyal customers to keep me in business. Love Alana X Melbourne Newborn Photograp

MANY FACES
From time to time I have to be a little cheeky with my work. Check out gorgeous Emmerson and her many facial expressions. I feel like the first photo is saying something like "Oh come on and give me a kiss" The last one looks a bit like "is it Friday already ?". Thanks for the fun we had today Emmerson.

Expecting mothers
Tips for photographing expecting mothers
Angles, angles, angles!!! Make sure you shoot the correct angles. Pregnant women can already feel uncomfortable and big in their new body. We want them to see their photos and love seeing the vessel that carries their unborn baby. Always explain to new mummas that getting hair and makeup done for the shoot will help make them feel the best they can in front of the camera.

Artificial light vs Natural light
Artificial vs. Natural light Photography
Well if I had to make a choice..... hmmmmm.......oh c'mon anyone that knows me or follows my work knows that I would choose 100% Studio Light every day of the week! For me it is fail proof and consistency is super important to me and the success of my business. My galleries and my sessions are always consistent and I dont have to worry about the sun coming out from behind a cloud, from it changing all the time and having to change m

The power of reviews
In a recent Facebook post to my clients regarding google search key words something dawned on me. Google Reviews really do control small businesses now. Don't get me wrong I always new how important they were but reading my clients responses to my posts clarified it. So many made comments about checking reviews is a huge factor in picking a photographer. I can honestly say that i have had amazing feedback and thankfully my reviews are a reflection of this. Check them out if y

Why
Why did i choose this career? I have always enjoyed taking photos as well as play around with anything in life that allowed my creativity to be exposed. I always enjoyed playing around with my personal photos and "edit them" in a online editing page called Picasa. I used to play around with my own photos for hours and hours and often discussed different career paths with my family that would encourage my creativity. When I had my first baby, i was over the moon as you can ima

Wilderness Session
Happy Birthday little guy! There really is no better way to celebrate this huge milestone in your child's life than with a cake smash photography session. This session was a little bit different as the client chose to have a wilderness theme complimented by a fox cake and outfit How adorable. This little guy had a ball and rocked his session like a true professional. We hope that his family enjoys these pics as much as we do. Love Alana X Melbourne Newborn Photographer | Newb

Studio Vs Location
I am often asked why I shoot most of my sessions indoors? I am a studio light photographer and shoot in my studio. The reason I love this and the reason it works for me is because my light source (my studio light) and my images are always consistent. I dont have to worry about the weather or sun changing during the session. Also I do not shoot in other peoples homes because I would not be able to take the same quality of image that I can in my studio if I was to use a custome
