I love life.
I’m the girl with the dewy eyes and the knowing smile, humbled to paint your stories with my camera.
I know you might be nervous, wary, and apprehensive about being my muse. Maybe you’ve had the wrong artist in the past, or you’re just worried about feeling (and looking) awkward and unnatural.
I wholeheartedly understand, but trust me….
….you are exquisite.
I see your beauty and your stories. I see the twinkle in your eye and the memory lines in your skin and I capture the perplexing beauty of it all.
LIFE AND LOVE ARE…..
They make us dreamers.
Star gazers.
Moon dancers.
The highest of highs
and the lowest of lows
Are all intertwined
in this crazy thing
called life.
INTRICATE.
Untidy wife, wild-at-heart mum, full time dreamer, and a wedding and editorial photographer based in Sydney, Australia.
Many years ago when travelling Croatia,
I fell in love with photography and wholly handed it my heart. Life is made up of rich beauty and I desperately needed to capture it.
Now, I’m honoured to hear your stories and become part of them.
With a touch of whimsy, I can paint the pictures that whisper thousands and thousands of words.
Remember, yesterday’s memories become tomorrow’s heirlooms.
Keep them safe.

"Aka was such an amazing photographer
and so much fun to have with us on our special day.
Hayley & Mick
A true artist, she beautifully captured the heart and soul of our big day. Her kind, down to earth nature is instantly calming. It never felt like we were posing, she made it really easy to have fun, and just be ourselves. Hence, she so easily captures those natural shots, the really special in-between moments that say so much in a look or a smile. Thank you, Aka, for telling our story in the most phenomenal way. Forever grateful."
"Enchanting, romantic, wild and free. That's how I describe Aka's work.
