Anthea Auld Photography comes to us from Western Australia – and how we love the beautiful WA light and scenery that are so much a part of Anthea’s images. When photography has been an important part of your life since your were a little girl, how can you not create beautiful heartfelt images that shine with emotion? Not only is Anthea technically savvy and highly experienced, she is also sensitive to the challenges of what can be a highly emotional day ensuring the most beautiful images possible.

We asked Anthea of Anthea Auld Photography five questions in five minutes:

What is your reward after a big working day?
After a big wedding, I love nothing more than getting home and relaxing in a nice hot bath, with a glass/maybe two of Riesling and possibly some chocolate. After being on my feet for the entire day, it’s my time to unwind. I normally can’t sleep straight away because there is so much adrenaline from the day, so I enjoy jumping into bed and reading a book.

Favourite weekend getaway?
Although I spend a lot of time shooting weddings in the WA’s South West region, I still enjoy escaping there with my boys. There’s so many beautiful wineries, local produce to sample, the ocean is rugged and the air so fresh.

What is your most prized possession?
My most prized possession is definitely my engagement ring. My husband designed it himself, with the help of his friend, who’s a jeweller. He did an amazing job as the design is something completely unique and every time I look at it, it takes me back to Princes Park in Hobart where he got down on one knee and popped the question.

Favourite Restaurant?
I have so many! But if I’m really honest, I’m addicted to Mexican food, particularly Nachos from Guzman Y Gomez. I’m there so often it’s embarrassing.

What do you enjoy about being in the wedding industry?
This is always evolving but my answer right now would be the journey. Getting to know my couples particularly the brides, finding out who they are and then seeing all of their vision and dreams come together on the big day.

Knowing I can capture this in a way that will be treasured for generations, this makes my heart happy.
