Julia Joy Photography

fit right into our event from dressing professionally to mingling un-noticed, she was a wonderful personality added. We were so impressed with Julia and her gentle yet strong professionalism as she directed us through our photo shoots with her beautiful creativity. We are very uncomfortable getting our pictures taken, but Julia put us at ease 100% and this reflects in our many absolutely beautiful finished photos. Julia was super flexible at all times and willing the trudge, up hills, through sticker weeds and the hot sun just to get a GREAT photograph of us, for us, putting her comfort aside, which many photographers wouldn't and couldn't do. We greatly appreciated Julia's selflessness to get beautiful photographs. When all you have left of any one day, one moment, is what can be captured by a photograph, I hope you pick Julia to take on that task. Julia's professionalism and caring is above and beyond what's to be expected of a photographer. In this current climate of uneasiness about social matters, Julia is so beyond accommodating and super caring, handling every situation as if it were her own, and I say this because we are two men, who after many years got married and wanted photos to record our feelings not only for one another, but our feelings for all of our friends who are near and dear to our heart, Julia never wavered, she made us feel special, like our wedding and reception was the most important thing to her that day, and it shows brightly in every photograph. Julia not only captured us in a special way, but she has a special talent to have captured our many friends and interactions throughout our event. I would never choose another photographer, and feel so fortunate that Julia photographed our event, The finished product was ample and EXCEPTIONAL!!!

her assistant! My family and friends were so impressed with her work, which is art. Many of the photos appeared to almost be sunny and others, which I absolutely love, show the rain. She helped move my and my giant dress (which gained quite a bit of water weight as they day went on); helped convey messages between parties at the property due to lack of cell service; captured some of my most treasured memories of family, friends and reactions to the entire day. Julia was even able to capture a picture of all three dogs behaving at once :) There's nothing bad anyone could ever say about Julia, seriously. She was very patient, never once complained about the weather - even stuffed an umbrella in her coat so she could keep shooting, was always professional, never pushy and my favorite, she's positive! Everyone thought I had lost my marbles when I said I wanted to get married out by the pond under the willow... in the rain. The weather man was spot on with his forecasting (NOT) and it was still raining come ceremony time. It was brought up that we could move inside the barn, but I chose the venue for the tree. Julia came in and told me it would look amazing because everyone was standing with umbrellas. She made me feel like it was OK to do what I really wanted. I was pretty low key about everything, except that one piece and it was nice to be supported. She even complimented me multiple times about my ability to go with the flow. Can't control the weather right? I could keep going on and on, but in short, if you want someone to really capture the feeling of your event, rain or shine :), who is professional, friendly and supportive, Julia is the photographer for you!
