I would recommend Alana a million times over. In fact I’m not sure we’d have anyone else photograph our life milestones from now on. We held our wedding on our private property (so she’d never been there before) and her ability to read the space, light, us.... amazing. She captured unforgettable moments of us, our family and friends, our four legged friend and our landscape. All without any direction or nagging from me. My husband and I are not used to be in front of the camera and maybe not the most photogenic people but Alana has an ability to be both ‘there’ and ‘not there’ at the same time. She is ‘there’ to guide you through an unusual experience of being ‘directed’ for a photo, but also ‘not there’ that is doesn’t feel like someone is intruding on some of your most intimate moments. Over a year later and my photos still take my breathe away. Over a year later and I’m still viewing photos where she has captured something I hadn’t noticed before. Over a year later I am still in ore of how she made my husband and I look and our property pop. Would we hire her again? In a heart beat. Would we recommend her to friends? Already have. Do yourself a favour and have a coffee with Alana to talk about your wedding day, family session or whatever it is you want to capture. I promise she will amaze you from your first sip of coffee and you’ll be hiring her just like I did.

We’d describe you and your work as nothing less than phenomenal. Alana you are relaxed and so incredibly personable which meant you fit in so easily on our big day with our family and friends. The communication in the lead up to our big day was super smooth and without any guidance you absolutely nailed our photos. You made us feel so relaxed and really added to the fantastic vibe on the day. Everyone who has seen our wedding shots has said they are the most incredible they’ve ever seen, and we couldn’t agree more! We feel so incredibly lucky to have had you capture our big day and couldn’t recommend you highly enough to anyone looking for a super down to earth photographer who is an exceptionally rare talented.

We've had our engagement, wedding and we've made a tradition of getting our family photos done each year with Alana. Every year i think "these are the best yet" and the next year rolls around and Alana outdoes herself again. If Alana ever moves overseas, we will also be shelling out airfares to get our pictures taken by her. We go 12 months and never worry about looking good in photos, because we take comfort in knowing Alana will capture our family so beautifully when we see her at the end of the year, it makes up for all the terrible selfies/tagged of us. Cannot recommend anyone more highly. Our family photos are our most prized possessions and we have Alana to thank for that.

Alana is both incredibly professional and personal from the beginning. We have booked a number of family sessions with her, and each time the service is equally as personable, organised and prompt. She has a rawness in her ability to capture images, where candid meets art. Such a journalistic approach to photography meant the true feelings and real moments are always captured beautifully. Getting our photos back is like opening a gift, and it never disappoints! Alana has a beautiful talent and we are so honoured to be able to continue working with her as our family grows.

Alana was so professional during the lead up, her calm and relaxed approach really assisted me in the planning of our special day. She was honest, insightful and really had our best interests at heart. During the day she was exceptional, she wasn’t in our or our guests faces. She was in the back ground and honestly felt like one of our family sharing our day with us. The group photo sessions were so much fun and not awkward at all. She has a special way of making everyone in front of her lens relaxed and comfortable. I thought on the day she took some great shots but it wasn’t until we received our photos back did I see the magic she created. The photos we have of our special day are incredible and I couldn’t recommend her more to document anyone’s special event or tell anyone’s story. From start to finish, Alana is and exceptional photographer and business woman!

Words cannot explain how amazing you were on our Wedding day, from the moment Dave and i met you for our pre wedding shoot we felt like we were old mates. You are so down to earth and made the two most awkward people feel at ease. Our wedding day flew by faster then what we were ready for but having your images to look back on makes it so easy to relive the day whenever we like. All of our guests commented on how awesome and professional you were and applauded us on scoring you as our Photographer. The images you gave us captured just how much we love each other but hate showing to the outside world, as strange as that sounds as a married couple now! @e cannot wait to have more life events for you to capture!

Alana captured our engagement shoot as apart of our wedding package. At this time I knew without a doubt I had picked the perfect person to capture our day. Alana was so comforting, easy going and made us feel like having our photo taken was fun and enjoyable. Our wedding day was captured so wonderfully thanks to Alana. She felt like family on the day and was able to capture everyone in a warm and natural way which shone through in our photos. We are so thrilled with our pictures and would recommend Alana to anyone!

Alana nailed the brief! She shot our recent wedding in Mollymook and produced the dreamiest photographs. Neither of us feel particularly comfortable having our photos taken but she immediately put us at ease with her down to earth, warm vibe. She was encouraging, told us what to do, where to stand and captured some really beautiful moments in the least cheesy way possible. And she was quick! We didn’t want to miss too much of the party, so Alana managed to get all the portraits done in about half an hour. Blitzed it! She captured the best versions of us. Not only are her photos exceptional, she is a legend to deal with. Thanks Alana, you made it a breeze x

Alana could not have been a better pick for capturing the most special moments of our wedding! She was not only a pleasure to be around, easily flowing in-between and making a great impression on our guests, but a complete professional! She knows exactly how to bring out the best in everyone, even those like myself who are not usually comfortable in front of a camera to say the least. Everyone was made to feel extremely comfortable and it was all so natural. I would highly recommend to anyone! Thank you so much Alana!! You are fabulous!

Alana is nothing short of AMAZING! Her shots are incredibly candid, natural and seem to perfectly capture even the smallest details. She is so easy to be around and you'll hardly even know she's there (in the nicest way possible!!!!!!). Thank you for everything gorgeous Alana. Highly recommend!

When I met with Alana the first time, right away I felt comfortable around her and that is something I really wanted with our photographer. Alana is so friendly, easy going, understanding and on the day made me feel so calm. I love Alana’s style, which is another big reason we booked her, those real natural, this is us, candid moment shots. She came up with so many creative shots and our wedding photos are just to die for. She captured everything perfectly.

 We engaged Alana for an in home lifestyle session at our home with our daughter Elkie to mark her 1st birthday.
My husband doesn't normally like to have his photo taken and with a 1 year old child you never know what to expect, but the afternoon we spent with Alana was so so easy, we went about doing the things we like to do at home and Alana just snapped away, the session didn't feel staged or intrusive at all. We cannot speak highly enough of Alana and the way she went about telling our story so beautifully. The photographs Alana took of our little family and our home will be with us forever and are the perfect way to remember Elkie at 1 year old. There is no doubt Alana is one talented lady!

I have been in love with Alana’s work for years now and I knew that when I got engaged I wanted Alana to shoot our wedding! From the moment I received the first email back from Alana the whole process was just easy and felt stress free. On the day of our wedding we felt so at ease and comfortable. When we received our sneak peak the next day we were just in absolute awe, so in love with the moment she captured. Then when we got back all of the photos we were amazed she was able to capture so much. It was like reliving the entire day! So many beautiful moments caught on camera and now we have those memories to cherish for a life time. You will not be disappointed with Alana. I could not recommend her enough.

Alana is such a beautiful, kind and genuine person. She goes above and beyond for her couples to ensure their day runs smoothly. She makes sure everything you want captured is done in a professional and natural way. My husband was a nervous smiler and all our photos are flawless and natural because we could not stop laughing while having fun on our photo shoot. She’s amazing and I highly recommend her to all my friends that I wish would just get married already!
