DEEP DOWN...
CREATIVE FANTASY
AND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN PENNSYLVANIA
ON THE SURFACE...
I’m a tried and true enneagram 4 with the biggest sweet tooth and a love for sweat pants, foggy days, and giant dogs. When I don’t have a camera in my hands, you can usually find me working out at the gym, thrifting 2nd hand treasures, exploring new places in nature, snuggling my 200lb English Mastiff (Ludo), seeing the newest movie at the theater with my husband Joshua, or day-dreaming up the next wild + crazy idea for a photoshoot.
EVER AFTER
My heart’s desire is to cultivate a community of dreamers that know they weren’t meant for this world – those who believe in magic, value vulnerability, and strive to find meaning and connection through creativity. I want the passion pursuers, nostalgia dwellers, dream chasers, and seekers of the Narnia hidden amongst this ordinary life. If that’s you, I’m so glad you’re here, and I welcome you to enter the wardrobe with me.
“You are stronger and braver than you think,
and more loved than you will ever know.”
WHAT INSPIRES ME:
– Christopher Robin
Nostalgia
Childhood memories
Foggy days
C.S. Lewis + Tolkien
I Spy books
Liminal spaces
Fairytales
The night sky
Dance
Cinema
Hi, I'm Julie-- I've been finding worlds inside my camera and creating art that transcends reality since 2010. For the past 14 years, making dreams come to life through photography has not only been the greatest escape, but my favorite form of expression, and where I've come to feel most at home.
So much of who I am and what I create is the fruit of nostalgia. Treasured memories from my past. The girl I once was with a wild imagination who I never dared to let go of. I equate nostalgia to be like that little space between sleep and awake – nothing there is real, yet when we’re there we can be our truest self. I wish for everything I create to feel like that – not fully in the past, nor present in reality – but somewhere amidst that little slice in-between, soaked in dreams and memory.
