Sometimes it is difficult to find time to do family session and to organize everything. But it is so worth it. I am grateful we did it. Keeping all those memories is very important for me. This little story of my family makes me happy now and the value of these moments will only grow. All experience with Anya was very comfy and easy. I am very happy with the result. I love all everything about these photos!

I attended Anya Maria's Within workshop and I am very grateful that I finally did it! She opened up her heart and her home to us and it was amazing to watch her in action. I have admired her work for so long it was brilliant to see how easy and effortless she made everything seem. It was the reminder I needed to just slow everything down, keep things simple, take a breath, and remember why I do this, and what is it that I really want to capture for my clients?

I have tired for a long time to sit and write this review but the honest truth is that it is so hard to put down in words how unbelievably incredible this beautiful women is at everything she does. From the moment you book a session and walk through the studio doors she creates a connection like no other. Anya feels like home, like that special someone that just gets you.

We have had many sessions with Anya and each and every time I leave wanting more; more of that feeling of completeness that you feel when you leave after a beautiful session in front of her camera, and that's before we have even seen the final product. I am yet to receive a gallery from Anya that hasn't brought me to tears (tears of pure joy). The way she captures the unique beauty and character of our family is beyond belief.

I am yet to find a photo I don't adore. As I said, it's hard to put down in words all the emotions that this incredible women has blessed our family with and the priceless memories we have but all I can say is; get in your family photos, document your memories, freeze your babies for that moment in time and hold onto those images forever and please, make Anya a part of your journey. She is truly divine!

Anya is a memory maker like no other. Her work truly speaks for itself and the fact that she is a lovely person who makes you feel totally at ease during your session is an added bonus. The images we have had taken with Anya over the years are my favourite possessions. Anya has a natural skill that is rare and is truly exceptionally talented at what she does.

We are forever grateful for all of our wonderful moments with Anya. From the very first moment we met Anya we knew we had found one very special photographer and only the BEST! Every session has touched our hearts, amazed us beyond and left us with the most breathtaking images that we will treasure forever. Anya's talent is like no other, her approach is warm, gentle and relaxed and you feel so comfortable throughout the session.

We are so fortunate to have had 8 wonderful sessions with Anya, where only magic happened. We will never get these special moments back in our life, but feel so honoured and blessed to have had Anya capture these moments and be apart of our journey throughout the years. Our prints are a daily reminder of the moments that were, and we love that we can look back on them year after year.

Be warned, tears of pure happiness will be had when you have your gallery delivered, pinching yourself that it is your family that your looking at. Anya we cannot wait for next time, you are forever our favourite. Much love the Jones Family X X X X

There is nothing more precious than moments with your loved ones, and after discovering Anya, I finally feel like we have some of these beautiful moments captured to keep forever. The stunning photos and albums that she has made for us will always be amongst our most treasured possessions and we will be returning to her time after time to add to our collection. Anya is absolutely sensational as a photographer and artist, but also as a person, going over and above to ensure the perfect set of memories for us as her client.

She is such a warm and genuine person, and has been incredibly thoughtful and insightful when creating images that are meaningful and special to our family and for that we will be forever thankful. I cannot recommend her highly enough - thank you Anya!

I was lucky enough to secure Anya to photograph our wedding back in 2012. My now husband and I are not very comfortable having our photo taken but Anya made us feel so at ease. On the day it was almost like she wasn't there, she just blended in with the crowd! It wasn't until I saw the photos that I realised she absolutely was there in the background working her but off to capture our special day.

She took the most beautiful photos of us with our loved ones, capturing the tiniest details! 9 years later we welcomed our beautiful daughter in to the world and once again Anya was able to take some very special photos of our little family. When I was pregnant I wasn't planning on having any professional photos taken, it wasn't until our precious girl was here that I decided we needed to document her first days!

I'm so glad Anya did this for us, the photos tie in with your wedding photos and have the same artistic touch. Watching Anya with our baby was like watching a baby whisperer, she seemed to bring this calming energy over us all. It's only been 10 weeks but our baby has grown so much I know I'll treasure those photos for the rest of my life. I feel like investing in Anya has been an investment in our future and I can't wait to show these photos to our children for years to come. I can't recommend her enough.

I chose Anya to take photos of our family when my youngest was born because I adored her style. Her portfolio is exceptional and I hoped she would be able to capture something really special for my family. I was over the moon when I discovered that she travels to a variety of locations and I was able to book her for a session in Sydney. I had missed having family photos taken when my first two babies were born, so this shoot with our whole family of five meant the world to me. Anya is such a lovely, enthusiastic person and engaged so well with all of my kids, including my very unsettled newborn.

She was gentle, thoughtful and adaptable to settings, lighting and moods. As a photographer myself, I had high expectations, but when I saw the photos, I was blown away. SO many perfect moments. SO special. Natural and so beautiful. I treasure the photos she took for us and they will always bring me back to those moments. She really did exceed our expectations with both her images and her dedication. I cannot recommend her highly enough. It's more than 5 years later and writing this review makes me catch my breath all over again - I'm going to look through our album now!

Anya photographed my son in hospital for his Fresh 48 and then for his Newborn shoot at 10 days old only a few days after giving birth herself! Dedicated and professional don't even begin to describe her. I spent a long time researching photographers and it was worth it because she is the best! From the moment we met she made us feel so comfortable and the photos she made for us are amazing and will be cherished forever. Thanks so much Anya

Anya photographed my family of 3 boys and created the most incredible gorgeous, intimate, fun and amazing photographs of us all! We personally love the little "bulldog" one of my youngest. It's so him hahaha. Little rager
