At Ultra Violet Lair, you’re free to express your true self, unburdened by fear or judgement. You will have full access to all of the props, headpieces and accessories in the studio space.

Starting with the styling.. Mashed up attire to your liking. No road blocks to your aesthetic look, only words of encouragement for more. Ana the artist/photographer is passionate about art and design, all collides in the most edgy fashion, as one here.
Themed photo shoots, unique in nature, fashioned like film plots to enchant the mind with you dressed to the nines, where decadence meets her best friend dark, with much macabre. Alternatively, swoon or move about the space, as Rhiannon recently, in her own fashion for her ‘witching hour’.
Will you succumb to this madness? Own the shadows, grace within the ornate. Choose the genre, theme or basic plot. Dark fantasy, enchanted dream, last person on the Earth, macabre to film noir. Play your part in your mayhem role solo, or with a friend. The Blade Runner set is Ana’s latest and is here to stay, further developments are currently being made.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”7866″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1700548849160{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”Alternative style costumes” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:center” css=”.vc_custom_1699943262113{padding-top: 25px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1699943329347{padding-bottom: 75px !important;}”]

‘Looking for a unique photo shoot that transports you to another world?
Ultra Violet Lair is the answer! Ana is the mastermind behind it all, she is creative, considerate and one of a kind. She is welcoming and passionate about transforming your vision into reality. Ana listens to you. She ensures that you are both on the same page, so your vision is achieved. She is flexible and open to suggestion, enabling your creativity to shine. But don’t worry, if that’s not you, Ana is great at guiding and directing you to ensure she captures your essence within your vision. She calmed my doubts and boosted my confidence by giving me a little sneak peek on her camera here and there.
Her creativity is unmatched; she has a great eye for detail
and her editing is superb, specialising in the mystical realm.
The studio is compact, but offers versatility with loads of different
backdrops that can be tailored to fit your vision. With an abundance of props from cute and dainty all the way through loopy and spooky, you are covered. The wardrobe choices are sensational. Lots to choose from – dresses, two pieces, skirts, blouses, corsets, capes and stockings. Specialising in the darker aesthetic, a diversity of black pieces. A wide variety of colours are also available, ranging from simple, classic designs to countless unique and
ornate pieces. I selected a sensational emerald green two piece that sent me back into the Victorian period with a hoop underskirt. Accessories are plentiful to style your look, with a special mention to the exquisite headpieces to choose from. A mysterious and sultry burgundy mask elevated the shoot and left my jaw on the floor, upon looking at the results.
Be careful though, not only will you be transformed within the shoot, you
may also be transported forward in time, as the time flies by. Overall, I am so happy with experience. I am overjoyed and in awe of the absolutely stunning photos that Ana captured.’

Outdoor shoots
The photos of the bushlands were taken 13th August, just with an iPhone whilst on a walk, of the fire-trail that runs parallel to the back of our property. Claudia wearing dark attire was taken out the back. Bec, the first Queen of Hearts was photographed in our front yard. Miranda Fair was photographed in bushlands close to here with her own flamingo plastic birds edited into the photo. Also wearing the recently Queen of Hearts headpiece inspired from the original Lewis Carroll ‘Alice in Wonderland’ book.
So many great spots for photography. A local park a few minutes drive, also has stunning large trees as backdrops, as well as to be amongst the branches, good for Halloween amongst other!
