PHOTOGRAPHER | ARTIST | ADVOCATE

Hey there!

I am Julie and I am so happy you are here.

A little about me!

I’m a lover of assembling Ikea furniture, boho fashionista wannabe, and oh I’m a self-proclaimed connoisseur of all kinds of brunch.

I’m obsessed with creating images that not only do you love but make you feel something. I want to take you back to the feeling of your kid’s wispy hair, the smell of your brand new baby and the memory of how your baby’s feet fit in the palm of your hands. From families to newborns, to births, I love capturing your story. What I love more than anything about this passion is being able to create something you cherish, to make time stand still and to stir up those emotions every time you look at them for years to come.

My motto is “photographing what matters most to you" and I hope you feel that in every session we document together.

I’m so thankful for every family that trusts me to capture these moments.

I started photography 5 years ago, as I had wanted to start a blog and always had the passion to incorporate my own photography. Photography was by far my favorite elective in Highschool, yet those were the days of film and dark rooms. Caring on my love for it, in that time seemed like a challenging task at such a young age. Once I took to digital photography years later, I quickly fell in love with it all over again.

As much as I am a photographer I am also a wife, mother of two and the founder of This is Brave. A place I combined my love of photography, the amazing community I have, and my love for deep, raw conversations. This Is Brave was created for women to share some of their deepest struggles in hopes to empower, bring a sense of belonging and connection, and ultimately release women from the loneliness that isolates them during times of tribulation.

I am the creator and photographer of most of the images on this website and cannot wait to share more stories and photos of the amazing woman I have had the pleasure of meeting & photographing.

My family and I reside in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.

A few of my favorite sites for brides-to-be and their planning process are Paperless Post, Grey Likes Wedding, Style Me Pretty, and Junebug Weddings.

I currently reside in the lower mainland of B.C. Canada!

Thank you so much for dropping by!

I have had the amazing opportunity to work alongside some wonderful people and businesses such as Minimoc, So Luxury, Locomotive Clothing, Habitat For Humanity, Run for Water, and MCC.
