Hi I’m Anna,
Owner and professional accredited photographer at CBA Studios. I have been professionally photographing since 2011 but photography has always been a hobby of mine.

I have a wonderful supportive husband who helps me with all my crazy ideas and three beautiful girls who I love more than anything in the world. As a family we enjoy camping, overseas travel and snuggly mornings in bed watching telly.

Studio Manager
Hi I’m Charleen, Studio Manager at CBA Studios.
I am a wife and a mother to three wonderful girls, with a very full and busy life of family, mothering, and volunteering. As a family we enjoy getting out in nature whether it be on our property planning for our future or exploring the country one road trip at a time. While my family is complete, I love being able to share in our clients pregnancy journey and meeting all of the beautiful newborns, toddlers, children, teens and young adults that come through CBA Studios. No two families are the same and it is my pleasure to be able to help share your families story, whether it’s as a fur family, a blended family or a family that has just begun. Charleen
Kerrin Parker
Hair & Make Up Artist
Just call me K 
I’m a freelance makeup artist and hair stylist and absolutely love what I do! I’ve been actively working in the industry for 16 years. After years of doing makeup as a hobby, i decided to become fully qualified in 2008 at the Acadamy of Makeup. I’ve done multiple hair and makeup courses scattered overtime to keep up with trends, worked with brands and beauty salons, however I have found it’s the experience over the years that has taught me the most. As an artist, I specialise in “natural glam” and use my skills to enhance ones beauty rather than change it. I love everything creative and have always put 100% effort into anything I put my mind to. I have very high standards on almost everything (especially makeup and hygiene). I use only luxury brands in my kit – I have zero products from a pharmacy. I’m a wife and mum – I’ve been with my husband for 13 years, and we have been blessed with 3 beautiful kids who mean the world to us. Together, we love travelling, cooking, drawing, and playing games. The days are crazy but we make a great team, and I feel so grateful to have such a flexible work life.
History
Where it all began
Not so long ago...
I was photographing weddings with a friend. This was such a fun and creative time and I thoroughly enjoyed my work.
Having children was always important to me, in 2011 our first daughter was born. This ment changes to my work needed to be made.
So we evolved...
My mother said to me once “Anna what would you do if your husband left you or passed away?” I was horrified at the thought either way but it got me thinking… How would I support my children? I had not worked for anyone in a few years only myself, all my other qualifications would need updating and none of them let me work hours around my children earning a good enough wage.
I decided I needed to jump into my business full steam ahead and refine what I was doing.
Newborn photography – the answer to what I was after. I spent hours educating myself, attending workshop after workshop on safety, poses, babies. I completed a diploma in photography and worked closely with a business advisor.
Since then we have photographed well over 1000 newborns! The business keeps evolving as does the world we live in but I have to say I know now that I Could support myself if need be and am happy that I jumped and went all in to get to where CBA Studios is today.
