Julie started shooting seriously just a few years ago while visiting the islands of Kuna Yala in Panama. For the first time in her life, she was handed an SLR, a PENTAX digital SLR, and was able to learn in real-time, minute-to-minute. In that nine-day trip how she saw the world was changed forever. She quickly discovered how to capture and visually explore the subject using her natural eye for light and design, but now she could easily share these found moments of beauty with others, and that was a both a thrill and a never-ending challenge.

Julie currently shoots for tour companies capturing the experiences guests feel while on their lifetime journeys. She has been on the cover of publications such as Alaska Airlines, Horizon Magazine, VIA Magazine, and several travel brochures. Her work has also appeared in Conde Nast Traveler, Recommends, Cruise Travel Magazine, Vacations Magazine, the Traveler, Sojourns, Cruise & Travel Lifestyles, etc.

Julie is proud to have been selected by Pentax to become one of their charter Pentaxian's and has been featured in two issues of POPULAR PHOTOGRAPHY Magazine highlighting her passion for travel photography and love for showing people the splendors of the world.
