PHOTOGRAPHY
I'M JULIA
I've lived all over this amazing state, but Madison has quickly become my favorite place. I moved here in 2018 and I can't imagine living anywhere else. You'll find me hiking my way through all the Wisconsin State Parks, or drinking copious amounts of coffee in a cute café. I spend my days playing with my fur baby, who makes the best model might I add. She's a merle Pomeranian named Basil.
THAT'S BASIL
MY STORY
I picked up a camera when I was 8 years old. It was a little point and shoot digital camera, and little did I know that I was unfolding a lifelong passion.
​
High school came around, and having grown up in a primarily digital world, I decided to take a film photography class. My love for this art grew tenfold. Learning how to manipulate the light and having to wait to process the film in a darkroom was an experience I will forever cherish.
​
Fast forward to college, I took Photoshop courses and invested in my first DSLR. I started out photographing close friends and family. I knew I loved photography, but what I learned during these early opportunities was that I love even more seeing the joy I can bring people.
​
The rest is history. I've been mastering my trade ever since. I love what I get to do and I can not wait to see how I can continue to grow.
