Welcome to Ana Brandt Online. This is my world in regards to teaching other photographers and my worldwide education methods. I know my world can be a bit overwhelming and so we created this page as a portal for all extensions of my training.

I started photography in 1999 and I am going on 24 years in the business as a maternity and newborn photographer, stopping only 3 times to have my children. I have stayed consistent in my career path and my desired to continue to grow in my own skills and teach others is very great as I believe we all need guidance and encouragement along the way.

My wish for you is that you find the right tools to learn and grow and understand that photography is a creative art and a process. As we grow, learn and change so does our work. It is a journey worth living and there is really no limit to what you can do with your creative mind.

Thanks for popping over into my tiny part of this creative universe.

FAQs

I am not sure where to start in learning with you.

Hello - I undertand! My name is Ana Brandt and I have been a professional newborn photographer for 24 years. It can all seems so overwhelming and when I started I did not have an training or mentors. I know how hard it is to work alone. I believe you do need guidance and a mentor, regardless of where you are in your career.

If you are just starting out, I would recommend either going thru the Baby University track if you are patient with time, as it is a six week series. Or if you need to learn right now, then I would find a course at www.bellybabyschool.com because you can learn right this moment. The course “How to Be a Baby Photographer” is a really good course that sets the foundation. If you need help wrapping, there are so many awesome wrapping courses that have tons of video. Browse the catalog and you will surely find something.

What Online education do you offer?

Belly Baby School - https://www.bellybabyschool.com is our oldest learning platform. We have over 15,000 students from around the world. It is a learn on demand platform which means you can signup for any course, and immediately start learning. There are individual courses focusing on specific topics. It is very similar to a Creativelive.com platform except we are not live. There are over 60 courses, with new courses continually in development that allow people to pick an area they need to work on and learn immediately.

Baby University - https://www.babyuniversityedu.comwas a new platform based to mimic an online education platform but focused on the newborn photography world. Baby U was put on hold after the first death of my Mother - than my Father - we are resuming updates Mid April.

Can you explain your certification?

I continually receive requests to refer other photographers for potential clients. It has been a challenge trying to qualify and refer previous students or other photographers. I designed the certification program that is listed as a way to qualify professional photographers. I deep dive into their business practices and require video footage of their work environment, testimonials, business proof and many other items so that I can put my name behind their business and help refer clients to them and give them visibility in the photography world. https://www.anabrandteducation.com/the-ana-brandt-international-certified-program
