We live in an amazing digital age. Most of us have a camera with us 24/7 in some form or another – be it on a mobile phone, or a DSLR. Instagram and Facebook upload more images every minute of the day than our grandparents ever took in a lifetime. It sure is a wonderful...
One of the first things you should decide when you are looking for a baby photographer is what sort of photo session you are looking for. There are 2 main types of photography when it comes to babies – lifestyle and studio. Both are beautiful but are very different types of sessions resulting in very...
Thanks Amy!!! ?
Join any Mums Facebook group and you’ll see regular posts asking about recommendations of “affordable” or “reasonably priced” newborn photography throughout Sydney. I’m always interested to read posts like these and the resulting comments. Posts like these really get me thinking though – just what is “reasonably priced”? And which photographers would be considered “affordable”?...
This is SO true. Also my other bug bear is when people ask for a photographer who “doesn’t cost an arm and a leg” ?
It’s your worst nightmare as a baby photographer. The email or call to tell you that your client’s baby has passed away. I’ve been lucky. Over the past 7 years specialising in newborn photography, I counted my lucky stars that it had never happened to me. All that sadly came to an end this month...
For the first 6 years of my baby photography business, I worked out of my living room. I lived in a small 2 bedroom semi in Sydney’s Inner West. I had 2 very young children. I was only working 1 to 2 days per week. The idea of having my own separate photography studio space...
- Academy of newborn photography Hi! I'm Amy Tong. I'm a newborn and baby photographer in Sydney, Australia. I'm Mum to 2 little ones, and wife to my best friend of almost 20 years. I've always been creative. A lover of music, art and history. Photography has been an important part of my life since I first picked up a camera as a hobby back in 2008. I knew that I wanted to pursue photography as a career.
I began my career as a professional baby photographer back in 2012 and have had the honour of photographing over 300 babies since then. To me, photography allows us to preserve moments in time for future generations. I can't think of any better job in the world. I'd love to hear from you and help you hold on to these special moments too..

I'd love to hear from you** MATERNITY LEAVE UNTIL 2020 **
Please note that I AM TAKING MATERNITY LEAVE FROM SEPTEMBER 2019 until april 2020. After that time, I will only be offering a limited amount of sessions for the remainder of the year as i try to slow things down and enjoy my third and last bundle of joy.
If you'd like a session with me in 2020, be sure to get in touch :)
Very best wishes!
