Julie was awesome from start to finish. She was easy to talk to and professional. My husband and I had our first family photoshoot with our 10 month baby girl and we could not be more excited about the results. I loved the candid moments as well as staged ones. I also liked that she was open to any poses that I might want to capture. It was a pleasure working with Julie, I highly recommend and would love to shoot with her in the future.

Julie is tremendously talented! She worked so well with our little family. She is patient and caring and has an eye for great photo opportunities. We have raved to all of our friends and family about our experience.

It was such a pleasure working with Julie. She was so kind and patient with us throughout the whole process. She was able to edit our pictures quickly, and what we received were the most beautiful photos of our little family. We have received so many compliments on our photos. I’m so grateful to have these beautiful pictures to capture the beauty of the first months.

I am obsessed with the maternity pictures Julie took! I felt so beautiful and am so happy I have the photos to remember this happy time. Julie was so professional and easy to work with. I would 100% recommend her.

Our pictures are incredible! We love them. Thank you for making the experience so easy and fun. It went so smoothly with our 3-year old and she loved you. We will cherish these images forever.

Julie has such an eye! I adore the gorgeous images she captured of my son and I. I walked away feeling like we had just had a nice time in the garden with a friend. Thanks for making me feel beautiful and capturing these precious photos of my son.
