We decided to have a family photo session outdoor last autumn and luckily we found Aliana. From the very beginning she was fast to answer and very friendly, her website is also very easy to navigate and the process to book the session was really smooth. She gave us so many tips and walked with us through all the steps for a good quality session and we were extremely happy with the results. Recommended 100%

We had a newborn session with Aliana, and it was a beautiful experience that I can highly recommend. I enjoyed every single moment of it - from choosing a color palette for the baby clothing to drinking tea at Alianas studio to dropping happy tears when looking at the amazing photos :) We are planning to return for more sessions in the future!

Aliana was a perfect host and photographer with my new born Sophie. She has a great selection of outfits and wonderful props. She was very Covid safe in the current climate, wearing a mask and ensuring everything had been sanitised and individually bagged for our session. Everyone was amazed at how beautiful the photos turned out. Thank you so much, I cant wait for the next session!

Aliana is such an incredible photographer. The whole experience was brilliant as she made us feel at ease and captured amazing images! We arent used to having our photos taken but the results were better than I could have wished for.
