Hello, I’m Julia.

I’m a Brand and Lifestyle Photographer, Videographer, Filmmaker and mum who is on a mission to help business owners and entrepreneurs connect with their ideal audience through the creation of on brand content.

I’ve been working with businesses for years, helping them create a compelling story about who they are and what they do. But after having my first child, I felt a deep desire to be more creative - so I took my lifelong passion for photography and video and coupled it with my strategic background to develop a proposition to help business owners and entrepreneurs tell their stories and stand out from the crowd.

As your strategic creative partner, I come with a background in marketing, product and brand to grow your business through visual storytelling and compelling imagery. The Strategic Photographer. Finding the sweet spot between creativity and strategy.

My purpose is to empower people I work with to become better in the way they visually reach their audience. I understand the challenges of running a business: being time-poor, and having to wear many different hats…let me help you lighten the load and grow, flourish and thrive while strengthening your message, customer engagement and business revenue.

I love creating beautiful things - and connecting with people. I have a curious mind, a creative soul and an eye for design…you don’t just get photos with me - but a strategy that will help grow your business and target your ideal audience to showcase the heart and soul of your brand.

  • I have done two shoots with Julia now and I'm blown away by her creativity, professionalism and personable nature. She is extremely organised and diligent at prepping shoots and ensuring the brand vision comes to life. She also puts the talent at ease with her friendly and approachable personality. I couldn't recommend her brand photography services enough!

  • Julia has a great eye for detail - she captured some amazing photos for a public park opening in Newport, Victoria for Hobsons Bay City Council. She's very professional and passionate about what she does. She understood what was required, captured the mood of the day and responded to our brief very well. Will definitely recommend her to others for capturing memorable events.

  • Julia was an absolutely pleasure to deal with! We booked her for a get together and the photos all turned out beautifully, with a great combination of candid and more staged photos. Looking forward to working with her again!

  • I highly recommend Julia for your branding photos or headshots. Julia took my branding photos earlier this year and I couldn't be happier. They are natural, not posed, and show 'me'. The real me. She was professional, cheerful and really fun to work with. She is super creative, so had heaps of great ideas to get a range of different shots for my brand.

    Caitlin, Photographer

  • Julia did an amazing job taking professional headshots for me. She made me feel at ease, made helpful suggestions and I was thrilled with the photos. I’ve been able to use them on LinkedIn and work profiles. I highly recommend Julia’s photography services, she’s professional and a joy to work with.
