BECOMING A MOTHER, IT’S NOT JUST THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TIME OF YOUR LIFE, IT’S ALSO THE HARDEST AND THE MOST CHALLENGING. YOU’RE VULNERABLE LIKE YOU’VE NEVER BEEN BEFORE.

YET, YOU ALSO HAVE MORE POWER NESTLED WITHIN YOU THAN YOU EVER THOUGHT POSSIBLE. A MYSTICAL MOTHERHOOD STRENGTH OOZES FROM YOUR DIVINELY FEMININE BEING - A VESSEL WHERE NEW LIFE BEGINS.

You even can't imagine how beautiful you are. Do you want to see what I see?

Let me surprise you and show youthe way to your unique self.

Nice to meet You!

My journey in photography began over a decade ago, intertwined with my son's arrival into this world. In those precious moments of his infancy, I felt an insatiable desire to capture every fleeting expression, every tender touch - a longing to preserve the magic of motherhood in timeless frames. And so, my camera became an extension of my heart, allowing me to document not just my own journey, but the stories of countless mothers like myself, each painting a vivid portrait of the beauty and chaos of motherhood.

Motherhood, to me, is a radiant transformation - a journey where the light of love illuminates every corner of our being, flowing seamlessly from mother to child. It's messy, it's chaotic, yet within its folds lies a divine beauty that defies explanation. My mission is simple: to remind mothers everywhere that they are not alone, that amidst the chaos, there is a quiet elegance - a beauty that transcends perfection and embraces the raw authenticity of motherhood in all its forms.

Some time ago, my son and I embarked on a new chapter, leaving behind the familiar streets of Russia with just a single bag and my trusted camera. Australia welcomed us with open arms, offering the promise of a fresh start and boundless opportunities. And then, amidst the hustle and bustle of our new lives, I met Anthony, the love of my life, whose gentle presence reignited the flames of love within my heart. Together, we are now a family of five, navigating the joys and challenges of parenthood with unwavering determination and boundless love.

Motherhood, I've come to realise, is a journey of discovery - a revelation that extends far beyond the confines of oneself. It's a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, uniting mothers from all walks of life in a shared experience of love, sacrifice, and endless wonder. And as our journey unfolds before us, I am filled with a profound sense of gratitude - for the love that surrounds me, for the moments that take my breath away, and for the endless possibilities that lie ahead.

With heartfelt warmth,

Anastasia Prodous

Dear son,

I missed it from the early beginning when I realised I was pregnant with you and felt your first kick…

I missed it when my body changed…

I missed it when I gave birth to you and later on when I was too busy to enjoy your childhood…

You are the most precious thing that ever happened to me, but I had no time to savour every moment of this beautiful time in our lives.

Those memories are all in my head, like invisible ties connecting my body to yours.

I wish I had a chance to capture them… I wish…

The Kindest of Words

I recently had the pleasure of working with Anastasia for a photoshoot, and I cannot say enough good things about the experience. From start to finish, she was professional, attentive, and incredibly skilled at her craft. Before the shoot, she took the time to get to know me and my preferences, and was able to guide me through the process of choosing outfits and locations.

During the shoot, Anastasia put us at ease and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. She has a keen eye for detail and knows exactly how to capture the perfect shot.

After the shoot, Anastasia worked her magic and delivered stunning, high-quality photos that exceeded my expectations. She was timely with her delivery and ensured that I was completely satisfied with the final product.

Overall, I would highly recommend Anastasia for anyone looking for a talented and professional photographer. Her passion for photography shines through in her work, and she truly goes above and beyond to ensure that her clients are happy with the end result. Thank you, Anastasia, for an unforgettable photography experience!"

Anastasia was caring and attentive from the very beginning. When I booked my shoot with her a few months before, she organised a call to discuss my ideas. She really made the whole process such an enjoyable experience.

My images turned out insanely beautiful and I am so happy with them! Anastasia is an incredibly talented photographer and I couldn’t recommend her more if you are looking for a maternity, family or newborn photographer!.”
