You can probably tell by the Christmas tree in the last two photos, that once again, I am way behind in the blogging department. I loved these images so much, however that I had to post them no matter how dated they are. The Sanders were great! They won my “watch me grow” package in a silent auction for a cancer benefit so I wasn’t sure if they were familiar with my style. I was a little nervous that they would want a bunch of stiff posed family shots for a Christmas card, but they wanted just the opposite and proved to be my ideal clients! We played and laughed and had a great time in the snow and then decorating the Christmas tree! Good times with the Sanders!

3 people have commented.Great shoot, babe. Very PJ. -Wonderful photos! Love your style LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this photoshoot. Amazing. -Meet my dear, dear friend, Regina. Not only is she a brilliant photographer www.recherche-photography.com but she is one of my best friends. A spectacular person with a huge heart, a great sense of humor, and a passion for life, this little lady keeps me always inspired. Unfortunately, about a month ago I got an email from Regina with some sad news that her sweet dog, Obadiah has cancer. There are really no words to express the way one feels, hearing that one of their family members is on the way out… but Regina, of all the people in the world is dealing with this news with grace, and is spending a lot of time with Obadiah and of course her other dog, Finnegan and husband, Jay. Not really knowing how else to express my sympathies, I offered to go over to the Mountjoys to take some photographs. These are just a few of the images that I got. Please keep the Mountjoys in your heart and prayers…
Finnegan and Obadiah (right)
Obadiah has the most sage expressions… He seems almost regal.
Look at those eyes!
Finnegan is Obadiah’s spry little brother. He is all play!
Obadiah is still enjoying the snow… so cute!
Regina’s huband, Jay made it home later so we went to Regina’s studio to snap a few candids of everybody hanging out…

13 people have commented.I’m a sucker for the dog shoots you do. -Julie, I adore you and I adore these images. I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to shoot & edit these photos of my beloved dogs. A snapshot of my life with them. Obadiah has been my baby, my soul mate, my best friend since the day I brought him home at 8 weeks old. I can’t imagine how my life will be without him. But I treasure every day we have and am so thankful for these images. Much love. -Wow. You really captured Obadiah’s amazing spirit. Thanks for such amazing photos of a truly great dog. -As of a friend of Regina, Jay, Obadiah and Finn – here is what I have to say, “WOW!!!” You captured them all so beautifully. Love to you all. -Love the pictures! You do great work! Give that family a hug for me, I know how wonderful the precious life a four-legged-furry-friend can be. Fill the next days and months with many memories and lots of pictures- to be remembered forever! -WOW! LOVE these photo’s! Beautiful! Marsha -These are absolutely beautiful. What a wonderful gift. -Oh Julie! These are amazing! -What a great friend you are to have shot those photos. They’re great and will be cherished, I’m quite sure. -This makes me sad but these will be very precious pictures to them. Beautiful, Julie. -I found this to be so touching and a wonderful idea to take these touching photo’s. I have an older cat that is starting to show his age/aches and pains. A good idea to take these types of photos to always cherish and remember. Thanks for sharing them to all of us. I posted this on my fb page. Thanks -Julie, these are such amazing photos. They brought tears to my eyes. Just last month I photographed my dear friends and their two dogs. Two weeks later they found out there dog Shay had cancer that had spread throughout her body and was put down later that day. I know now that there is no better gift that can be given in such a painful situation. Thanks for sharing. -This is a great shoot. Beautiful moments. -I’m guessing that Sheri and Geoff take many pictures of their dog Newman, because the minute he saw the camera, he came in for his close up. He is quite the photogenic mutt! But Sheri and Geoff, who warned me that they were far less photogenic than Newman, certainly stole the show! They gave me quirky, intimate, fun, and sweet all in one shoot and I ended up with a set of engagement images that I hope display just a few of the ways that Sheri and Geoff connect. And if I ever need a dog model…. well, I’ll know who to call!
This one cracks me up!
Blue steel—literally.
I’m not sure what it is about this image that I love so much… it feels a little cold and eerie. You can almost hear florescent lights buzzing. Yet there is much comfort between Sheri and Geoff. I guess I love the juxtaposition.

5 people have commented.Love the last one! Your AMAZING Julie! =) -Fantastic work, as usual. The dog photos are hilarious. -LOVE the shot with the dog licking its lips. EPIC. -Yup I really love the last it has such a natural feel to it. More of a street photograph than an engagement photograph. It’s like you were just wandering through Union Station and happened upon this moment the couple was having. -Love these photos, great looking sun flare! -These images feel a little voyeuristic to me, which is always a goal of mine–to remain invisible and capture life as if I weren’t there. Ashley and Joel are sweet, loving, and seem very private to me. I was so honored that they asked me to come document this pregnancy and stage in their lives. Ashley and Joel have three furry, and not so shy little friends who also participated in the shoot. Elmo, Henry and Lola are Ashley and Joel’s dogs who hammed it up for me, and made good distractions for Ashley and Joel, so that I could photograph this sweet time in their lives, as a journalist.

5 people have commented.Julie, I love the shot in the kitchen. So great. -these are beautiful! you really captured their personality and the emotions. love em! -Julie, We had some portraits taken of my wife just before our 3rd was born by a photographer that was supposed to be the best in Lincoln Ne where we live, well I wish we lived closer to you because YOU are a true professional. A pregnant woman is a beautiful thing and you have captured that so well, very tasteful. I am IMPRESSED! Of course it can’t hurt that you seem to have an endless supply gorgeous women. All of your work is fantastic! Keep up the good work! -I love your use of light and contrast. -These are great! - |

Dear Julie,
-we live in Moscow, Russia. Since we have visited once your blog, we can’t forget your absolutely terrific photos! Im(o)ho you are one of the best photographers we’ve ever met in web. Some kind of very personal attitude looks through all your works.
A week ago we have got married… If you’ve lived near us, we would invite you as a photographer but… what a pity that you are so far away((((((
I hope these parents are ready for the calls from the modeling agencies. What GORGEOUS girls! Great colors Julie!
-What cuties! Great shoot!
-I just died and came back to life when I saw the black & white one of the darker-haired girl (picture #8). Amazing.
-Hi Julie,
I live down the street from your photo space and decided to check out your work. You are very talented! I looked through a lot of your photos and it is all very nice. Great work on the girls photos. Love the natural look!
Jeremy
-J’adore ce shoot! Just looking at this shoot makes you want to go back in childhood.
-Beautiful photographs, as always! Love them! Miss your commentary though
