Birth Video - Alana's Testimonial

Alex captured moments of my life that I could have easily forgotten. With all of the chaos and lack of sleep in the first few months of my daughter’s life, I’m so glad she captured memories I will treasure for a lifetime.

We contacted Alex as soon as labour started and kept in contact as it progressed. She met us at the birth centre late on a rainy, cold winters night and beautifully went about setting up the room with candles, fairy lights and hung my birth affirmation cards around the room.

Alex working her magic in the background capturing moving and beautiful pictures. At one point, my labor stalled and Alex provided some helpful suggestions that improved my labor.

After the birth of my daughter, she stayed and got some incredible shots and videos of our first moments as a family. Alex has given us something that we can reflect on and relive everyday. The more I watch it the more I fall in love with it. You did a great, amazing out of the world job capturing lifetime memories for us. Olivia will love watching this when she is older, what an incredible gift for her.

I really can't thank you enough in words.

Murwillumbah Birth - Dad's Testimonial

In such a special and unpredictable time, I always felt a positive and calm presence from
Alex.
This is not an experience you want to share with anyone, It takes a special person to know
when and where they are needed and also when to give space...Alex did that beautifully. At
times I didn’t even know she was there but then as you needed something Alex was right
there. Knowing Alex had been through this before helped me to feel confident that
everything would be OK.
Alex also had some special decorations for the room including some cute little fairy lights
that she set up to make every detail special and gave encouragement where needed to both
Alana and I.
During the birth experience Alana is the star but it takes a team of people to support and
take care of the small details. Alex was part of our team and would recommend Alex to be
part of your birth experience team too.
Thank you, Alex. It was an unforgettable experience with the most amazing surprise at the
end. - Luke

Oh my gosh WOW. I am so in love with what Alex has created for us. The most challenging and BEST day of my life is now captured in the most beautiful way that I can now look back on forever. I have already watched it so many times I just can’t get enough. I was a little bit hesitant in the beginning because it is a large investment, but now that I’ve seen the end product I will definitely be doing this again for every bub in the future, it is just so invaluable and worth every dollar. Alex was an absolute star during my birth. She has a super calm energy and I barely noticed she was there. Her backup was needed for my birth and she was just as amazing, so you’ll be taken care of no matter what. Honestly, if I had to choose between a birth photographer and newborn photos I would choose birth every single time. She made sure she knew what I wanted and she delivered even better than what I hoped for. I will value these captures for eternity. I will definitely be hiring Alex again for future births. Highly recommend this absolute star 🌟🙌🏼. - Ashleigh Smith

"Wow Alex, the photos are simply gorgeous, thank you so much for the opportunity to be a part of such a special gathering and some precious memories captured. I really appreciate everything you have done for me and this pregnancy, creating such an amazing opportunity, taking your time to capture this part of our lives. I am truly grateful, thank you from my heart.
Alex is a delight to work with! I found her fun and relaxing during the shoot, and she set me at ease while I was sitting in front of the camera. She captured exactly what I wanted – photos that are professional but still have some style, character, and playfulness. Highly recommend!" - Karina Bell

Birth Photography - Testimonial.

"During my first birth, my husband and a midwife took some pictures of the birth even though I thought I didn't want any. Looking back at them I was so thankful I had some pictures that reminded me how strong I was and that blissful rush when my child came to this world. The second time I was determined to hire someone to document the birth properly. It was beautiful to see the support of my husband and my midwife being so attentive. I wouldn't have noticed any other way since I was in "birthing-mode". I feel empowered looking back at my birthing pictures. They remind me of the beautiful bond I share with my husband, the beauty, strength and surrender to childbirth and that light at the end... holding our baby in our arms.
Alex was so lovely. She got there super quick and was very respectful of our space while birthing and bonding with our new baby. She captured the essence of my birth, the love and support of my partner and the celebration of welcoming of our little Jay Stone into this world. She also got the pictures ready very quickly, which was very important to me because thanks to that I had gorgeous pictures to show my family in Puerto Rico.” - Luna Woolcott

Byron Bay Birth and Newborn Photography - Testimonial.

"When I was asked to write about our experience with Alex as our birth photographer, I turned to my husband and said "Could you write something about Alex because I hardly remember her being there!".

I had a photographer planned and it felt through a few days before I was due, I posted a message on facebook and Alex replied that she was able to do that for us. It was really important for me to have a photographer because I wanted some images showing us the birth of our beautiful son without my husband living it through a screen. It was imperative that someone else then Chris took the photos.

Chris thinks it's awesome the fact that we felt like she wasn't there, she wasn't intrusive at all and she came as soon as we got to hospital in the middle of the night.
I had a very intense labor (I'm sure it often is but I feel it was quite a good one!) and Alex was very quiet and peaceful by my side when taking photos. I know my mum enjoyed her company too and having someone to talk to.
I unfortunately had to get transferred to an other hospital but Alex kept in touch with us the whole time, due to a few complications I ended up with an emergency c-section and even if Alex had offered to be there with us if we wanted we decided to go ahead without her. I regret it! I wish I had stuck with what I wanted and had asked Alex to join us for the c-section. I hope she can be there for our next birth!
The most beautiful photos of Angus that we have are the few Alex took when she visited us in hospital the next day. We have some gorgeous family shots, breastfeeding and grandma cuddles;)
I often look at those photos that are full of emotions and move us every time we look at them. Chris gets teary every time, bless him!

Thanks Alex! We will be in touch again for sure!
Vic, Chris and Angus xx"
