Alicia @ Savvy Studios [Australia]'s photostream  

When people ask what area of photography I specialise in, my answer is, "people". I love all ages and stages throughout life and find people from a variety of backgrounds very interesting.

If there is one thing I could shoot all day, everyday it would be childbirth. I have been fortunate enough to share this event with some women and it is truly magical. It's the time in a woman's life when she is the most vulnerable and yet also the most powerful. In her strength and determination there is true beauty.

I am a very fortunate person to be able to do what I love and I also love what I do. I'm living a dream and count my blessings everyday. :)

I am a committee member for the Queensland division of the AIPP (Australian Institute of Professional Photography) and I'm also a state and national Professional Photography Awards judge.

Other than my photography, I have four beautiful boys that I adore, a husband that I love and two gorgeous dogs. I play netball two nights a week and I read a lot.
