See what some of my Clients have been saying about their experience.
“I was nervous to start with. I really felt I hadn’t had a nice picture taken of me for a long time. I also didn’t have makeup on and was in comfortable clothes waiting for a massage afterwards. Ankya made me feel so relaxed, and I got over the nerves pretty quick. I then felt so calm and just went with the flow. As the photo’s progressed, I felt a real sense of ‘self’ and serenity. I could feel a real connection with nature, my true self and the water around me. It was a really lovely experience. When I look at the photo’s now, I remember how I felt, and that feels good. Thankyou Ankya.”

“Yes it was truly inspirational seeing myself through the eyes of Ankya’s wonderful eyes.
I think this is the very first time in my life that I have allowed myself to see and open to the beauty within me. This was through the soft and gentle guidance and encouragement of Ankya’s voice that repeatedly said you are so beautiful, you are going to love this.
My first feelings were of shock at seeing my aging face and hands its been hard for me to allow myself to see my aging process of my body and accepting that i could at all be seen as beautiful…
You are ABUNDANCE !
It is an energy you Can Embody
As i relaxed into the photo shoot and started to free myself up I started to really enjoy the experience…I started to talk to my feet, telling them how much i appreciate the constant support and strength they are giving me on this journey of mine and then I allowed myself to lean back into the volcanic rook of this ancient goddess temple and feel the roots of trees stretching up into the universe i felt myself for the first time going to the depth of my soul and the roots within stretching up to the light and the love within me that is one with the beauty of nature and one with my own beauty.
My experience of seeing the photos I wanted to cry with joy at seeing my beauty shining out to the world and saying yes to my inner wisdom, strength, my feminine power, my wild hair my natural being true to my nature, my overwhelming sense of freedom yes its truly me. Yes I cherish the divine source of love and beauty within and I own it its me.
Thank you so much Ankya for being there and giving me this wonderful opportunity to appreciate and love myself through my own eyes for the first time and saying yes to being me.”

“Ankya, my photo session with you took me by surprise. I didn’t expect to see myself the way your photos portray me, and it gave me a very unique insight into the truth about who I am being. Your intuition in asking the right questions to evoke little sparks of who I am amazed me. And that you captured those sparks in your photos is truly sensational! This experience has opened me up to a whole new way of using photos to portray who I really am, to myself and to the world. I am so grateful for this experience with you, Ankya!”

“Our Transformational Photography session was a deep healing communion with myself, nature, and my sister-soul, Ankya.
We played with sarongs, leaves, flowers, and the majesty of Bali and I unveiled parts of my body I usually hide to Ankya’s loving lens. “You are your own temple,” she told me, and I knew it to be true. I will never be the same; I will never look at myself in the same way again.”

Learn to Embrace your divine Inner Beauty and Power from the Inside Out
“A photographic session with Ankya is a unique and magical experience. Ankya makes you feel totally at ease and manages to
capture images that are honest, real and beautiful. I have a background in glossy magazines where everything is styled within
an inch of its life. However, Ankya’s photography brings out an authentic quality I’ve rarely seen elsewhere. So many corporate headshots of entrepreneurs lack soul – Ankya’s photographic process helps you find yours.”

“When I was being photographed by Ankya, I felt a deep sense of trust, care and love.
Ankya has the capacity to put the person before her in a state of deep relaxation as she lets the photo session unfold at her subject’s favoured speed.
I truly felt the feminine energy emerge in a powerful way, as Ankya took me from self-consciousness to self-love, from awkwardness to Oneness.
I can’t recommend Ankya highly enough, to anyone ready to embrace the Divine within …. or to anyone willing to witness who they truly are … in body, mind and spirit …. for the very first time, through the lens of a camera.
Thank you Ankya. You have a unique and Universal gift to offer.”

A photograph often says as much about the relationship between the subject and the photographer as it does about the subject alone. Ankya has a magical energy
that makes you feel very special and also in-tune with your spirituality when she is photographing you. Looking at the photos she created she seems to have captured something of the essence of me. This is a unique skill and I am very grateful for her vision.”
