my story

Hi, I’m Anna Armstrong, an artist, photographer, and filmmaker with nearly 30 years of experience capturing life’s most beautiful and joyful moments.

My passion for storytelling through images and videos started as a teenager when I made family videos without the convenience of computers - just two VCR players creatively connected to bring my visions to life.

My mum, who shared my passion for documenting life, would gift me cameras, and at every family party, I found myself capturing memories as the designated photographer or videographer.

Gradually, I turned my love for video and photography into a career.

I started my own wedding videography business in Brisbane, filming weddings, life celebrations, and parties.

There were countless challenges along the way, with ever-evolving technology, but I’ve embraced how incredible and accessible everything has become. Now, with imagination as the only limit, the possibilities are endless.

My approach to photography is simple yet meaningful: I don’t put pressure on people. Instead, I focus on creating a natural, stress-free experience where we can be playful and free, resulting in authentic and vibrant images. I aim for our sessions to be more than just a photo shoot—I want them to be a joyful and memorable experience.

Today, I continue to pursue my passion, practicing family photography and videography in beautiful Port Stephens, where I now reside.

I also travel frequently to Brisbane, Sydney, and across Australia for photography and videography work.

As a mother of five - Angela, Victoria, Michael, Nicholas, and Alyssa - my children mean the world to me.

The journey of documenting their lives has made me appreciate the value of capturing fleeting moments.

Through photography and videography, I strive to grow my career, nurture my spiritual journey, and build connections. I hope to bring light, love, and lasting memories to every family I work with.
