Since then I have photographed ‘Black Betty’ the red-tailed black cockatoo and ‘Cupcake Pinkie’ the galah, which have both been huge successes. “And after that I would have been silly not to continue taking photos of birds. Thankfully for those of us eager to get our hands on Amelia’s bird photography, she finally unleashed it on retailers and trades at a Melbourne trade show last year – and the feedback on her bird photography, in particular, was overwhelmingly positive. The Public Can’t Get Enough Bird Photography These were things I had personally struggled with, so being around these birds was so uplifting at such a low point in my life”. “Through photographing these birds I came to appreciate their sense of self and their carefree nature.

Growing up on a hobby farm in Torquay, and now living with her husband Will and two children, it’a fair to say that Amelia is a nature lover who draws inspiration from what’s around her on her one-acre property in Bellbrae. My current bird obsession is taking place via Aussie artist Amelia Anderson, whose phenomenal bird photography is absolutely second-to-none. The real things spook me out a little. But when they’re captured on camera and transformed into stunning bird photography, they make my heart race for all the right reasons. I’ve always had a bit of an obsession with birds.
