HELLO!
This isn’t supposed to be about me, it’s about you! But I’ll keep it sweet.
I’m Jana. A professional photographer since 2014, based on Bunurong land (South-east Melbourne) with a passion to document beautiful loved-up moments, human connection and creative ways to visually tell your story. I believe in images that are genuine and truthfully capture the feeling and emotion of that particular moment in time. Whether it be weddings, a baby bump, the birth of your baby and/or first few weeks of your babe earth side, I’d love to tell the beauty of your story through my lens in a way that is natural, honest and real.
When I’m not behind the lens, I’m dancing around the living room with my three small humans or sharing some good home cooked food and conversation with my hub. I’m an adventurer, a home-birth junkie, an almond chai drinker, I love the beach in Summer, bush-walks in the cooler weather, a fictional-romance read, Loco-Love chocolate (obsessed!) and I’m forever in awe at the lessons that my own little ones are teaching me.
But that’s enough about me. If my approach to photography appeals to you, chances are I’d be well suited to capture your story. Though I’m based in the outer suburbs of Melbourne, travel is an option I’m always open to. If you have any questions or would like to know pricing, say hello using the contact form above and I’ll be in touch.
In connection,
Jana
Hello!
I’m Jana. The gal behind the lens who my three kids probably feel is an extension of my face. I’m based on Wurundjeri land, south-east Melbourne and I've been photographing professionally since 2014 with a passion to document beautiful moments, connection and creative ways to visually tell your story. I believe in images that are genuine and truthfully capture the feeling and emotion of that particular moment in time. Whether it be weddings, a baby bump, the birth of your baby and/or first few weeks of your little human earth side, I’d love to tell the beauty of your story through my lens in a way that is natural, honest and real.
When I’m not behind the lens, I’m dancing around the living room with my three small humans or sharing some good home cooked food and conversation with my hubby. We share a love of adventure, music and a visit to our local market with the kids on a Sunday morning. I'm a *home* birth junkie, I love endless cups of herbal tea, the beach in Summer, bush-walks in the cooler weather, yoga (when I can!) and I'm forever in awe at the lessons that my own little ones are teaching me.
But that’s enough about me. If my approach to photography appeals to you, chances are I’d be well suited to capture your story.

-Emily
"Choosing a wedding photographer can be one of the most difficult and important choices there is when planning your dream day, but there is no one I would recommend more than Jana. She instantly put us at ease with her candid photography style and easy-going yet thoughtful approach to her work. Every photo was perfect and there was no moment too big or too small that Jana didn't capture for us...she will document it in a way that not only captures the moment but also the emotion. Our wedding photos are beautiful and will be treasured forever."
-Karen + Matt
"Having Jana photograph my birth was the best decision I've made and I feel so lucky that she was part of my team. Birth is such a raw, intimate and vulnerable experience and Jana is the only person I would trust to be there. The photos she took are my favourite photos in the world and she was able to capture us becoming a family of 5 in the most loving way, but most importantly the images perfectly reflect exactly who we are as a family. My only regret is not having Jana photograph my first two births."
-Kaity
