A workstation with desk and wifi available during your longer sessions.

Books and toys to entertain your littles during your a long session.

Our studio has a large selection of maternity dresses for client use during sessions.
Julie Irene has been photographing newborns for over 12 years. Her and her assistant are trained to handle newborns and newborn safety is always their top priority. All newborn sessions will flow with baby’s need first, which means plenty of time for feedings, soothings and snuggles. For this reason, we only photography one newborn session per day at the studio. Julie Irene always keeps newborn’s sensitive skin in mind when choosing any newborn wardrobe and accessories for her studio. Soiled props are sanitized or washed with organic and baby friendly products.
Julie Irene Photography's client closet is available for use for all client's during their photography and portrait sessions. It includes hand-picked little girl dresses, hand knit rompers and dresses, as well as sweaters and shirts for little boys. We have beautiful dresses for mom that would look perfect for those Fine Art family portraits.

They saw how it was being done…. and said, “we’re doing it differently.”
No roadmap.
No support.
No paycheck for years.
A pandemic 18 months in.
And babies in the middle of it all. Because why not. 😏
And still… they built it.
An award-winning hospital.
A powerhouse team of women.
A business that actually cares - about pets and people.
Oh - and they didn’t stop there.
They’re now helping other women step into ownership too.
This is what it looks like when you stop waiting… and just go for it.
If that little voice in your head has been whispering “what if”… this is your sign.
Contact me if you’re building something bold - I want to feature you.
She Means Business.
Two women.
Zero apologies.
Behind every successful brand is a face people trust. And trust begins with visibility.
If you’re building something extraordinary… your presence should reflect it.
High-level women don’t hide.
They lead.
DM me if you’re ready for your brand to match your ambition.

You finally stopped waiting for the “perfect time“.
The kids are growing.
The sunsets keep showing up.
In one day, this season will just be… a memory.
This is your reminder to be in the photos.
Not when you lose 10 pounds.
Not when life slows down.
Not “next year“.
Now.
which one are you in right now?
The quote “we need updated photos” stage
The “I’ve been meaning to call” stage
Or the “we’re overdue by 5 years” stage?
Tell me below. I’m curious.

If updating your headshot has been sitting on your to-do list for… Let’s say… A while… This might be why.
it’s not that you don’t care.
It’s that:
You don’t know what to wear.
You think you don’t look good in photos.
Or putting yourself out there feels vulnerable.
Here’s the truth.
Every woman you see confidently showing up online once felt the same way.
The difference?
She decided to step forward anyway.
If you’re ready to be seen in a way that actually feels aligned with who you are now… Let’s talk.

She Means Business: Dr. Maryam Sickinger
when confidence meets compassion, you get someone like Dr. Maryam Sickinger - founder of Advanced Institute of Dermatology here in San Clemente.
From helping patients feel beautiful in their own skin to leading a thriving practice while raising three amazing kids, she truly embodies balance, grace, and success.
It’s been such an honor photographing Maryam in her family over the years - and capturing this next chapter of her story for my She Means Business series
because when women stepped in front of the camera, something powerful happens -- they see themselves the way the rest of the world already does.
