About Me


H E L L O !

My name is Julie and the truth is, I’m a lover of God, Family, Parenting, and Beautiful Light.
Cheesy? Yeah probably, but in that order (among many other things) they truly are the things I need in my life to be happy.

Who am I?
I am a mom of three boys.  I am an ex-preschool Montessori teacher and now dedicate my full time
to my children and my photography business.

 

More About What I love
I love Love LOVE being a mom! I love watching all little firsts.
First steps, first words, first wide eyed discoveries of the world, first driver’s license, first girlfriend, first speeding ticket!
I love the dimples small children have on their hands where their knuckles will grow in.
I love the fuzzy halos of hair that glow on a baby’s head as you watch him eat his bananas in the morning light.
I love the peanut butter face that only comes from a child who eats their sandwich straight down the center, and how a toddler runs with a straight legged hip rotation waddle.
I love how a child suddenly wants to do everything by themselves, despite their little bodies holding them back.
I also love actively and mindfully being a mom.
I love being a part of building childhood memories, the good ones that they will carry with them forever.
I love being a family and watching my husband be a father.
I love watching him get down on our kids level and become childlike himself.
I love watching him go do “man things” with our Big while I stay home  with the littles and bake a cake, play board games or dart gun wars.
I love falling deeper in love with him every day.

A few other things about me:
I have a “I can do that myself” mentality.
Which is what got me into photography in the first place.
I love to at least try to make my own props, crochet hats, I will learn to knit, I cut my own kids hair (and my hair too!)
I usually make my kids birthday cakes, and try to always make my Christmas presents for the family,
I am a Positive Parenting Solutions Mom and Ambassador.
I play the guitar, not well, but I do play (and I sing too!).
I’m not a guru but I sure strive toward balance a healthy lifestyle.
I am spiritual, a lover of God, and always look for ways to see the best in all situations.

About my artwork:

As you can see from above, I love my kids, details, and relationships, and love, and I believe that shows through my work.
Steering away from perfect poses and bold color, I use a combination of beautiful light, muted soft tones,
and delicate props to focus on the true essence of a person and the emotions felt between loved ones.

My style is pure, organic, simple and fresh, revolving around the soft delicate intimacy that is everything motherhood.
I want to offer the experience of a beautiful, FUN, relaxed session, along with a variety of beautiful heirloom products to fit all the needs you have today.

You might feel like these days are slipping through your fingers, like no matter how hard you try, you just can’t slow time down. 
But mama, you can pause it. Just for a moment. 
And you’ll be so glad you did.
Have you ever thought about how one day, this baby will ask about the time they were in your belly? 
These photos aren’t just for you—they are for them, too.
You will blink, and the baby who once fit perfectly in your arms will be running through the house, too busy exploring to slow down for snuggles. But right now, they are still little, still needing you in the deepest, most beautiful way. Let’s hold onto this moment before it fades.
Have you ever stumbled across an old photo and felt the memory come alive again? 
Suddenly you can hear the laugh, smell the shampoo, feel the weight of those little arms. Photos are anchors. 
They hold what our hearts never want to lose.
Your body is not just growing a baby—it is growing a mother. A version of you that will never be the same again, in the most beautiful way.
