What is it like to work with me?
I know picking a photographer can be stressful! It can seem overwhleming trying to select a creator that will document your most important memories, capture your artistic vision, and make you feel comfortable while doing it.
​
That's why I am incredibly grateful to my clients who have provided feedback of their experience creating with JFA.
"Julia is on top of her things: she gets back quickly with dates/times, rates, ideas, etc. She is so easy to talk to and so much fun to do shoots with, hence why I have asked her to shoot two very important events for me: my 21st birthday and college graduation. She arrives on time, and if she needs to reschedule, she lets me know as soon as possible. During our shoots, she makes me laugh genuinely so I wouldn't have to fake a smile, carries quality conversations, and hypes me up. I know she takes her time in editing her work, only striving to produce the best possible results for her clients. The photos I have received are beautiful, and personally she has helped me fall in love with who I am. Julia has such a creative eye and a talent in capturing life's most beautiful moments and people. It is always an unforgettable experience working with her; definitely want to book more shootings with her in the future" :)

"So much fun and so easy going! I’m normally a very shy/nervous person in front of the camera and Julia really made me feel so special and comfortable in front of her lens! I loved shooting with her and i’d definitely book with her in the future for all my special events!"
Jordyn
"Absolutely incredible every single time. I go there as a blank canvas and Julia blows my mind with her creativity, her vision, the level of comfort and peace she exudes, and I'm never not in awe. The results blow my mind but the real beauty is the creative process, how easily she seems to think of ideas or shots on the fly, yet also letting me suggest and direct as well. I can't say I've ever worked with someone so creative and passionate but also kindhearted and easygoing. It's always a pleasure."

"Julia is a talented and professional photographer who specializes in making her clients feel comfortable and natural. Her creativity and artistic approach result stunning, beautiful photos. What I loved most about working with Julia was her ability to make you feel at ease throughout the entire photoshoot. This results in capturing beautiful, candid moments. Julia creates a fun atmosphere, making the experience feel like a fun hangout and a memorable experience. From start to finish, it feels like you are just hanging out with a friend because of how personable and easygoing Julia is. She was so much fun to work with and I highly recommend anybody to work with her!"
Brandon
"The whole experience was GREAT from start to finish. The initial consultation was so easy, pricing was fully transparent and broken down, and we were able to come up with our visions and ideas clearly, as well as an agenda for the day of the shoot. When we met the day of, I immediately felt comfortable, confident, and supported. I’ve never liked taking photos of myself, and I never feel comfortable with posing, but it felt like everything came naturally with the right support, and there was never any awkwardness. The deliverables were beyond my expectations and I almost cried seeing them for the first time because I genuinely thought and believed that I was beautiful for the first time in a long time. Thank you for helping me see this."💛
Claudia
"Everything was a breeze! I always felt heard & cared for through the whole process. The shoots were always fun & sometimes silly, but most importantly comfortable! Getting the photos back was always so exciting & it never took to long! If I ever needed to make changes or had questions I could address them! The quality of photos & posses was great as well."
Abby
"Booking with you was very hassle free. We were able to find a date that worked with our schedules. My husband & I have done two separate photo shoots with you so far and I see many more bookings with you. You are so positive and high energy and just very kind. You make us feel comfortable through out the whole process. I like how I can tell you a small detail and you capture it so easily! Receiving our photos is stress free for us as well as it’s been done via Google drive. She is amazing at directing clients with different poses and if you’re not comfortable or don’t like something, she can easily accommodate for you. Overall great experience, my vision was captured, and we were all comfortable."

She did an amazing job with capturing the style and athestic of what I wanted in our shoot and even more. She was fast at getting us our photos as well which I totally appreciated. Book with Julia you won’t be let down."
Selena
"Working with you was so fun and enjoyable! You made sure that I was feeling comfortable in front of the camera and always had my back. I loved how it felt like a collaboration; you asked me what I wanted and also gave me direction on what you thought would look good. It was so easy and convenient for me and you made the whole process a great time, which I genuinely appreciated."
Jason

Sophia
"If you want a brilliantly artistic fun and lovable photographer she is for you she made the experience so smooth and enjoyable she is also very great at promptly getting the photos back to you."
Ellie
"Booking for me is different because we do it for a fun creative outlet for both of us and she wants to make sure her clients have her full attention. When it comes to her business she’s always on top of prioritizing her clients and fitting them into her schedule. When we do meet up for shoot days we always have a plan laid out of what we’re planning on shooting which is helpful (again, super organized). She is also a go with the flow kinda person and is willing to add something in when an idea comes to her that she thinks will be a cool shot. She’s great at directing the body and telling clients what she needs from them, but also prioritizing their comfort and making sure to give little rest breaks throughout shoots. Her turnaround for editing is pretty quick even when she’s a booked and busy girl. Julia is kickass. Julia is one of the best people. We are both busy gals so finding time for each other can be difficult but she always makes it a point to schedule something. Her artistic vision is always so captivating and unique to me. Every time I see a new shoot that she’s done I feel inspired. Her determination to make a business out of one of her passions is also admirable. Making a name/business for yourself in photography isn’t easy and she continues to show up everyday. She is one of the most well-rounded people I know and I consider it a privilege to be a friend of hers and to be able to work/create with her. Picking Julia for any sort of shoot you want (creative/wedding/pregnancy/ect) and getting to see her bring your vision to life while also adding her own touch/style to it is one of the greatest things to experience. I can, in full confidence, say that she will always be able to bring your vision to life. She is one of the greatest."

"Working with Julia has been one of the best experiences I have had working with other artists. From start to finish, she takes to account your dreams and everything you wish for into account, while also giving you some great suggestions on how to elevate your work. She has been very professional, starting with a contract, listing all the things that will be done, and she delivered all of those things within the time that I asked her. She showed up on time, ready to work hard and with 100% of her energy. Whether it was with location, suggestions, props, or even make up or styling, she had everything ready to go when it was needed. When it came to editing, she would send me her suggestions, and then make the changes that I asked. She never doubted my preferences, but instead was very flexible and made everything fit my style. At the time, Julia was doing a lot of pastel, bright colors. But when I asked to work with her, I wanted filmy/dark/more darker, contrasted pictures. She went out of her comfort zone, and if you look at the pictures, you would’ve not noticed so. I recommend Julia to anyone who is looking for a consistent, professional, and incredibly talented photographer to work with."
Laura
"Booking was super easy. Julia was very quick to respond to my inquiry. The shooting itself was SO FUN. At first, I was nervous because I'd never done a photo shoot by myself, but Julia made me feel so comfortable. The vibe and environment she created allowed me to let go of the nerves. Julia was very encouraging throughout the shoot and even chased some negative thoughts away while at it. The deliverables were STUNNING. It's hard to believe people when they give you compliments but the photos that Julia captured really made me see myself as a beautiful woman. I want to do another shoot with Julia someday soon!"
Makeila

Blake
"I remember my very first shoot with you when we just became friends. You made me feel so comfortable and told me exactly how to pose because i definitely wasn’t a natural. My photos came out phenomenal and you made me feel beautiful when i was in such a dark place."
Nesa
"Personable and enjoyable while also very professional. Each shoot has been well planned out and I love how easy your communication is with pricing and throughout the shoots. Love how fast it was to receive our content as well, both videos and photos and the quality itself is just so top tier! You’re the freaking best out here and it’s always an absolute pleasure working with you!"
Daniel
"You’re so kind, creative, and you are open to different things. I think these traits create great shoots and a positive environment."
Payton
"I loved working with you because I felt like you got excited about my vision for my cover art, which made me more excited about the concept. You were very straightforward about the things I should bring with me for the shoot and you made me feel super safe and confident with your excouragement. I really appreciated you stopping to show me some of the photos we took just so that we could change/continue going a certain direction with poses/angles/clothing & props. I totally want to work with you again given the chance!"
Ellery
"Super easy to work with. She actively communicates up until the shoot date and made everything run smoothly."
Kyle
"I was very impressed with the content delivery. Communication is very important to me and it was on point. Which showed through the content she was creating for me. She gained my trust quickly and she was the perfect fit for my brand. I always recommend her to others who asked about my content & she is always my go-to girl."
Esther
"It was such a fun and comfortable experience to work with Julia. I’m one who needs help with posing, angles and confidence and Julia provides all of that! I love her aesthetic and her turnaround time on deliverables are the fastest I’ve ever gotten. You can tell she truly loves what she does through her passion for not just photos/art but also people. She takes the time to get to know you and reflects that in her work. I wouldn’t have it any other way!"
Jessica
"It was such a fun and comfortable experience! Taking photos with you felt great and i definitely would recommend anybody to come to you for anything photos related !! You saw my vision perfectly with my princess shoot!!"
