While I was in the Army, I was always seeking roles to be a teacher. It was here that I realized how much I love helping others grow and succeed in their professional (and personal) lives. I knew the day I began my photography career that I someday wanted to be able to help others who were sitting in my same spot.
I’M A FIRM BELIEVER IN #COMMUNITYOVERCOMPETITION, AND BECAUSE OF THAT I HAVE A BUNCH OF FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU on my BLOG, BUT IF YOU’RE ANYTHING LIKE me, YOU WANT MORE. I GET THAT AND I KNOW JUST HOW YOU FEEL. I also really just love photography and helping people, especially mommas!, learn how to use their cameras to take photos of their own families. Which is why I’m launching an online course! check back in 2023 for all the details!
YOU’RE DREAMING BIG DREAMS.
YOU FEEL FRUSTRATED WHEN SOMETHING DOESN’T TURN OUT EXACTLY HOW YOU HAD HOPED, AND YOU’RE NOT SURE WHERE TO EVEN BEGIN TO MAKE IT LOOK “RIGHT.” YOU MAY EVEN BE SCARED OF FAILING BECAUSE YOU LET SELF-DOUBT CREEP IN. PERHAPS YOU FEEL CONFIDENT IN USING YOUR CAMERA BUT THE IDEA OF ACTUALLY SETTING UP AND RUNNING A SMALL BUSINESS TERRIFIES YOU. or YOU OWN A DUSTY DSLR CAMERA THAT’S JUST BEEN SITTING AROUND, BEGGING YOU TO PRESERVE YOUR OWN PRECIOUS MEMORIES WITH NO IDEA HOW TO USE IT.
Well, put those insecurities and fears aside, because I’m so excited to offer mentorships!
Mentee Testimony
“When I started to pursue my dream of being a photographer, I was LOST. I knew how to work a camera, but I didn’t know how to actually make my dream into a reality. I was struggling with how to create a genuine and fun client experience, posing, editing, and the the business aspect of well, running a business… so basically everything! Julie was patient, kind, and fun to learn from. She is an excellent teacher that never once made me feel discouraged, and instead was a champion of my learning. She answered all of my questions and ensured I left feeling confident in my work. The best part was that our mentorship hasn’t ended since the formal portion of my experience, and I love that I can call on her if I have questions or need honest and helpful constructive criticism. Julie truly practices what she preaches and believes strongly in community over competition. She is one of the most genuine, kind, and inspiring professionals in the business, and I am so honored to have learned from her. I would highly recommend her to anyone wishing to start off building a photography business!”
