Hi, I’m Julie.
I’ve been obsessed with photography since I first picked up my tiny instamax camera in 1999. You know, the ones with the photos you pulled out like little stickers? I plastered those things all over the place. From those very first palm sized photos, to discovering the magic of film in high school, to playing around with my first DSLR in college…I’ve always felt a pull to images. It’s almost magnetic; when I look through viewfinder and compose a shot, something just clicks into place. I call it a “yes, that!” moment.
Photographs should make you feel something.
It’s a resonance. A recognition. A single note coming into tune. That’s what I aspire to capture for you. Whether it’s your baby’s tiny feet cupped in your hands, a final garnish sprinkled over a plate, or a genuine smile when you feel totally yourself…these are moments worth remembering.
A little about me -
I’ve lived in Richmond for almost 20 years (!) and love it dearly, but my roots are in the Shenandoah Valley.
My background is in counseling and higher education.
You can find me rooting for the Commanders on Sundays - #HTTC!
Trying new restaurants bring me joy. The cozier the better.
I will always stop to take a photo of flowers.
