I am Julia
Your local photographer and friend
I’ll be the extra guest at your wedding, the playdate for your kids, or the third wheel on your date.
I am easily excited, I laugh loudly and dance wildly. I love my cats, flea market finds, growing flowers and watching movies. Also reading, eating and spending time alone.
I have spoken openly about my own experience with mental illness, as I believe in being open and vulnerable myself if I expect people to do the same in front of my camera.
Learning more about myself has helped me connect better with people. I am now certain I wouldn’t be able to create the same honest and emotional photography I am known for if it weren’t for what I’ve been through.
I’ve studied photography for 5 years and run my business for over 12 years. I know this work inside and out and I love it still.
my philosophy
I won’t tell every story the same way, but I will work hard to give the same safe and joyful experience to everyone who steps in front of my camera.
While the wedding industry especially can be far from welcoming, I don’t only cater my work to a certain audience with a certain style. Instead I want to tell stories about all kinds of people from all walks of life.
Representation is important and building a portfolio that everyone can see themselves in is a forever project. That means I am still invested and passionate about growing as a photographer, even 15 years after having first started my business.
