APPROACH
Julia’s artistic practice is rooted in the belief that image-making can be an act of personal healing and cultural regeneration.
Her creative process is grounded in rapport and ritual. Whether documenting ecological movements, intimate moments of human connection, or mythic re-imaginings of cultural memory, Julia maintains a close, intuitive relationship with her subjects.
She recognizes that the act of witnessing can be sacred—that each image carries the potential to restore wholeness and empathy.

LIVE EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY
As a documentary filmmaker, I approach photographing events through a storytelling lens.
I love being at live events because the energy is always moving. I blend in and prioritize following moments of true feeling, expression, and connection. I document the details that help stitch the scene together, as well as the human moments that are equally raw and beautiful, candid and heart centered.
I photograph weddings, house concerts, holidays, births, b'nai mitzvahs, ritual theatre performances, retreats and more. I am available for custom-made events.
Wedding packages begin at $3,000. All live event rates depend on the length and scope of the experience.
WHY SLIDING SCALE?
My approach is to allow flexibility for all kinds of budgets while making my work sustainable. Our exchange is far more than monetary, and in some cases will consider trades for goods or services.
I also take credit cards and payment plans. Let us support one another's blossoming.
