It’s always so special and pretty nerve wrenching when you’re hired by another photographer to shoot their portrait.
Elke is the lovely owner of Elke Dous Photography and contacted me to take photos of her husband Chris and herself. While I was waiting at the cafe in Fremantle for them to arrive, my stomach was doing flips, my skin was turning red and (as usual when I’m nervous) I was talking very fast and non-stop to my friend who was with me. Then Elke & Chris walked up, we sat down and that was the beginning of one of my most memorable photo sessions I’ve ever had.
There’s nothing I could really say to express how wonderful Elke & Chris were on our portrait shoot together. They are two of the warmest people I have ever met and I will always look back on this shoot and remember how remarkable it was. I sincerely hope this feeling comes through these photos.

Oh Carla! Thank you! Your words are so sweet and the photos are amazing! Elke xx
These are stunning! Elke, these are just gorgeous, such beautiful moments captured. So genuine!
A few weeks ago, I put a ‘call out’ on my facebook page, looking for a couple to spend a few hours with me in Fremantle as I was eager to experiment with some new shooting and lighting techniques. The lovely Carly and Mike put their hands up for the portrait shoot and below shows some of the great images we got that day.
If you want to see a few more pics from this shoot, head on over to Carla Atley Photographer on Facebook to flick through the extra images.
Big thank you to Carly & Mike, you guys are awesome!

Over the past several weeks I’ve been in talks with a wonderful Graphic Designer (and friend) who has created the most amazing new logo for me.
Knowing that I adore street photography and cityscapes, he drew this remarkable design and I am thrilled to share it with you today.
Now to begin the excitement of stationery branding!

Love the new logo Carla! I’m struggling to come up with a name for myself atm – so frustrating because every name I think of someone else has
Thanks Kel. I remember trying to think of business names a couple of years ago and it was the hardest task to find one that suites your work and is available. Lucky for me, I ended up using just my name which has turned out to be the best decision. Hopefully you’ll find your perfect name soon too xx
