Julia was the perfect photographer and partner to help make my surprise proposal happen. My experience with Julia was nothing short of outstanding. From her creative and natural ph...
otography style to her genuine, friendly demeanor, and her dedication to go the extra mile, Julia truly brought our beach-side surprise proposal to life.
I had an elaborate plan - to fly into Hawaii and surprise my fiancée with a proposal during her girls' trip. From the get-go, Julia was not only onboard but became instrumental in the planning and execution. She blended into the group, all the while working with me behind the scenes. She helped our friend and I execute a ruse of a 'photo shoot raffle win' to keep my fiancée oblivious to our plans. Julia sold the idea perfectly, making it all seem serendipitous.
Her dedication to getting the perfect shot is remarkable. She flew out to Oahu several times, scouting the ideal location for the surprise, eventually settling on the amazing Kualoa Beach Park. On the day, she arrived an hour early to ensure everything was in place and to get me set up.
Once the photoshoot started, Julia's friendly beach-side manner made everyone feel at ease. She has a unique talent for capturing organic moments, which was evident in the fun and laughter-filled photos of the girls' initial shoot. I watched from my hiding spot as Julia skillfully guided the group, her lens capturing moments of joy and excitement.
When it was time for the surprise, Julia worked her magic. She positioned the girls to face the ocean, signaling me at just the right moment. The series of pictures she captured next told a beautiful story. The anticipation, the surprise, the pure joy on my fiancée's face - it was all there, framed perfectly by Julia's expert eye. It seemed like there were two photographers from the final shots - one of the main reasons I chose Julia was for her intuition on how to capture authentic moments beautifully.
Julia's knack for spotting stunning backdrops - the beach, islands, mountains, in the grass, by trees - only added to the magic of our photos. She even stayed later to capture us against the Hawaiian sunset sky. Her ability to make us feel comfortable resulted in pictures that were not just beautiful but felt truly us.
Julia's communication throughout the process was amazing. We were kept in the loop at all times, and our preview and final photos arrived swiftly, in just a few weeks, complete with a stunning slideshow.
I spent a lot of time researching and interviewing Hawaii engagement photographers before landing on Julia. It was the best decision. She is just the best at this.
Choosing a photographer is a big decision, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. Julia Kathleen's creativity, natural talent, and dedication to her clients are second to none. If you're looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond to capture authentic, beautiful moments, I cannot recommend Julia highly enough.
Julia was amazing and captured our love perfectly. She made our photoshoot comfortable and went the extra mile to shoot all the photos we wanted on our photo list. Julia was kind a...
nd quick to respond to our emails and questions. *And as added bonus she gave us our full edited gallery 3 weeks after our wedding.* When our wedding coordinator suggested her to us, we decided to reach out to her because we loved her vibe and felt it matched well with our venue. (Waimea Plantation Cottages) We are SO thankful we did! Her photos literally brought us to tears and we loved EVERY. SINGLE.ONE. She truly exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend her to anyone getting married on the beautiful island of Kauai.
Pictures arrived early, turned out amazing, and Julia was the absolute best to work with! Made it super comfortable.
