Workshop with Anya Maria Photography

On the weekend of the 24th and 25th of May I headed to the Sunshine Coast to attend a photography workshop with one of the industries finest portrait photographers; Anya Maria Photography.

To say I was excited is a complete understatement. I had been waiting for this weekend to arrive for so long and was estatic the time had finally come. When it comes to 'celebrities', pop stars and actors don't phase me. But ask me about my favourite photographers and I'll talk your ear off; you'll wish you never asked! Anya is one of the photographers I have followed and admired for many years now and I was thrilled to not only be meeting her, but learning from her as well.

It was a 2 day workshop and over that time we had the privledge of watching Anya work her magic with a number of subjects; including two perfect squishy newborns, a stunning mama-to-be and a gorgeous fun-loving family. We watched and listened as she helped as with numerous aspects of photography.

I'm so grateful for all that Anya shared with us, for letting us into that special world of hers, for the beautiful fellow photographers I met and bonded with, and the fabulous subjects who gave up their time to allow 6 strangers with cameras to freely photograph them! 

Thank you Anya for everything, it was amazing to meet you and experience some of your magic XxX
