FAMILY Photography Princeton NJ That Captures the Heart of Your Home

Time moves quickly—but the moments that matter deserve to be remembered.

My family portrait sessions are relaxed, connection-focused, and full of heart. Whether we’re at home in your favorite room or in a sunlit Princeton field, I help you slow down and savor time with the people you love most.

No stiff poses. No forced smiles. Just laughter, snuggles, and images that feel like you.

The Heart Behind the Lens

Hi, I’m Julie, a former teacher, a mom, and the founder of a portrait studio rooted in empowerment, artistry, and everyday elegance.

This business began with a desire for more freedom and flexibility after my son was born. I picked up a camera thinking it would be a side gig. That was 11 years ago. Today, it’s a thriving studio where I help women, families, and professionals see themselves in a powerful new light.

Kind Words

We had a fantastic photography experience for my 3-year-old with Julie! She was incredibly patient and knew exactly how to keep my son engaged and smiling throughout the session. Julie captured his personality perfectly—his energy, charm, and playful side all came through in the photos. The whole process was smooth, and the photos are great!

TJ

Thoroughly enjoyed my experience shooting maternity photos with Julie! She gave great advice and took a variety of shots and the results turned out beautifully!
Rachel Y

Julie was amazing to work with! We left everything up to her expertise and we couldn’t be happier with our session, how well she worked with 3 young and active boys to get the special moments, and our beautiful photos. Highly recommend!
