Julia and You Full Description
I adore capturing beautifully styled weddings, using my years as art director for leading bridal magazine WEDDING to very much influence my style – editorial (naturally) with fine art influences but always storytelling. I work as a duo with equally talented photographer Michelle, bringing together our two styles to create the perfect collection. Michelle specialises in storytelling, whilst I am fine art editorial, so as well as telling your story we are creating what will become your first family memoir. Hopefully something you will be showing grandchildren. For me, as I only book a limited number of couples a year it’s about us being right for each other. If you just want a photographer to capture the day then I might not be the right one, but if you love editorial photography, want to create something beautiful and tell your own (fun) wedding story we would love to get to know you. At some wedding guests presume we’re friends already, so when you get in touch I would really love to LOTS about you two, about your wedding, the style, the details and the things that are important to you both. I love to have fun relaxed day with you two, after all chances are you will spend as much time with me on the day as any guest! I have been lucky enough to work with the industry’s finest, from top fashion photographers and talented wedding planners, to leading cake designer and florists, and I am very fortunate to call many of them friends. I am very fortunate that the combination of stylish weddings and couples with my editorial style means lots of my weddings get featured in top bridal magazines (you can see some here). Me personally, of course I love photography and imagery which is why I am a pinterest and instagram fan, but I am lucky to be blessed with two amazing children and a husband who makes me laugh every day. I have a VERY sweet tooth and get excited before every wedding at the chance to get dressed up (and wearing red lipstick) and I cross my fingers for golden

Blown away
Words cannot describe how talented Julia and Michelle are. I’ve only had my preview shots back and I’m blown away (as is anyone who has seen them) I am so excited to see the rest. Not only does Julia shoot the most incredible pictures, she is lovely to be around and makes you feel so at ease. She also was so handy to have around on the morning and made the whole thing a breeze, during the drinks reception she had the list of photos we wanted and worked through them as quickly as possible so we could join our guests which was important to us. I really cannot recommend her enough.

Brilliant photographer!! Highly recommend!
Julia and the team were immense from start to finish! They were professional and enabled the day to flow as smooth as possible without us even knowing they were there. One of the best parts upon reflection was how diligent Julia and the team were with getting the 'required' photos done, by keeping those who were going to be in the next shot close by. We've now received our photos, there are so many to look through, but we're so so happy with the ones we've seen to date. I'd highly recommend Julia & You - if I could give 10 stars I would!

Amazing wedding photography
Julia, I want to thank both you and Michelle for our absolutely amazing wedding album. We are absolutely delighted with how the photos have turned out and how you have captured all the moments and details from our special day. From start to finish, you and Michelle were amazing to work with. You gave us really helpful guidance and advice before the big day, helped us to feel really calm and comfortable and captured everything and more throughout the day. Both myself, George and all our family and friends loved working with you both! Thank you so much again for our memories that will last a lifetime! Elly & George xxx

Marquee wedding
Julia was truly the most perfect wedding photographer we could have asked for. From our very first meeting, we knew immediately she would be perfect for our day. She makes you feel so relaxed and yourself, nothing is too much and she is on hand all day long without being intrusive. Julia was so organised, and also really helped the day run smoothly. Now... onto the images! We were totally and utterly blown away by how she had captured the day. Our wedding photo's are so perfect, and capture...

Surrey wedding
We were absolutely blown away by Julia and the photos from our wedding - they are absolutely stunning. Right from the get go, we felt in very safe hands. In the lead up to the wedding we had a few meetings with her on zoom to discuss what we wanted, logistics, family shots etc. On the day, Julia was brilliant, and so calming and helpful - such as suggesting we cut the cake a bit early to avoid it melting in the hot weather! See rest on google...

Quendon Hall - Parklands
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. Julia was super helpful on the lead up to the day, keeping in regular contact and guiding us through the process, and was just wonderful on the day itself. We received our pictures back so quickly and we were absolutely over the moon with them - they were perfect and we genuinely loved every single one. Julia captured everything in the most beautiful way and I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Gaynes Park wedding
Julia and her team were such a delight to work with. As soon as we had our first consultation with her we knew she would be the perfect fit for our day as not only did we love her style of photography, she was also really friendly and we instantly warmed to her. It was important that whoever we chose to be our photographer would be able to seamlessly fit into our day as you do spend so much time together. Julia was great in the lead up to the wedding by helping us visualise the types of shots w

Gaynes Park wedding
I found Julia on Instagram to have photography at our wedding and from the moment I got in touch, she was friendly and professional. Nothing was a problem and she really helped us understand how the day would go and what to expect. I was really nervous on the day of my wedding but Julia really put me to ease and had such a team spirit approach that I felt relaxed. You can tell she loves what she does and really does capture all of the moments you are looking for. We were sad when she left the da

Hedingham Castle wedding
My sister in law recommended Julia after meeting her at one of her friends weddings. As soon as I saw her work I knew Julia was the only photographer I wanted for our special day and I was so happy when she said she was available. The photos exceeded all of our expectations, we couldn’t be happier! My husband and I were both nervous to “pose” in front of the camera but Julia made us feel so comfortable. All of the photos look so natural - even the formal, staged ones which is exactly what we wan

Ferry Inn House wedding
If you’ve been looking for a photographer for your wedding and find Julia and You, BOOK HER IMMEDIATELY! You will not regret it. Julia (plus Michelle who is also amazing and works with Julia) captured our New Year’s Day wedding just over two months ago and I honestly cannot explain how gorgeous our photos are. You know when you look at a photo and think, is that me/us?! Julia and I have spoken a lot over the years as I was a Covid bride (we first start talking back in 2019!) and I would even as

What is your most memorable wedding?

We have literally photographed 100s of weddings and everyone is memorable in its own way, but across the years - a groom arriving on a horse, tearful speech by an adoring dad as the bride had gone into remission from cancer, hilarious bridesmaids, beautiful sunsets, all weddings need is to be personal and they are all beautiful

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Umbrellas and a smile, dont worry about it - some of my favourite weddings have had a bit of rain, this summer on a particularly wet wedding the bride and groom literally laughed their way through the vows as they could see the rain coming down. It wasnt what they had planned - but by having good humour it didn't spoil a thing and then in the evening the rain cleared the clouds as we got the most amazing sunset. And you know what you can hardly tell from the photographs

Describe how you got into photography.

I did a photography A-level at school, but from that went onto to do a design degree but on leaving university I took further photography courses, and inspired by friends lack lustre wedding photographs 11 years ago I thought perhaps I could do better
