Capturing the Moments

As their photographer, it was an honor to capture every moment of Grace and Chris’s wedding at the Center for Urban Horticulture. They left a wonderful review:

“Our experience with Julia throughout was 10/10. Julia is professional, fun, easy to work with, and really knows what she is doing. On top of this, her prices are extremely reasonable. Our wedding was so beautifully captured; she didn’t miss a moment. We were worried about the awkwardness of having our photos taken, but she made us feel so comfortable in the moment. We are so happy that we went with Julia to photograph our wedding, and you will be too!”
