About julie irene Photography

Your family is ever changing, from a brand new baby, to their first steps, to their first day of school. You know that they'll grow in a blink of an eye and you want to capture and savor every moment and detail. It may be their tiny little toes to their sweet little scowls for your newborn; for your 7 month old, it's their chubby thighs and their ever present smiles.

 

I am here for you. As a mom of three, I know how quickly time goes by and how quickly your child will grow. I absolutely love posing little newborns to
capture every special feature, to their lips to their sweet furry ears, or your
baby's sweet smiles and their chunky thighs.

 

I am a small town girl that grew up in Northeast Ohio. I love being a mother to two beautiful daughters and one amazing energetic boy. These children
are my world. I started my photography business in 2008 after getting out of
the corporate world and I couldn't be happier about that decision. I have a
great portrait studio located in Southern California in the amazing beach town of San Clemente. It is full maternity dresses, fine art outfits, and loads of props for newborns and babies!

 

My favorite part of being a photographer is meeting so many different people and creating priceless portraits for them and their family.

xo, Julie Irene

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.

Do you know a woman who deserves to be featured next? Tag her below or reach out to learn more about the She Means Business campaign.
There’s something magical about those first weeks - the tiny features, the soft baby breaths, the way their whole body fits right in your hands.

Each image is intentionally crafted - from posing to lighting - to create artwork you’ll treasure forever.
Because these moments are gone in a blink of an eye.

I welcomed Maryam of Advanced Institute of Dermatology here in San Clemente to my studio. 

She is the women entrepreneur I got to welcome into my She Means Business Campaign. A movement celebrating women who lead, inspire and create impact through their work.

Each session is about honoring the woman behind the brand and business - the one who built her business with purpose and passion, who shows up every day for her clients, family and her dreams.

Through this campaign, I'm photographing 25 remarkable women entrepreneurs - capturing their strength, confidence, and story through timeless, editorial style portraits.

Because your story deserves to be seen.
