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

This studio session brought four generations into one room. The daughter who organized it got everyone together before her niece flew back to Idaho with a baby due in June. Sessions like this don't happen on accident. Studio or beach, the harder part is getting everyone in the same place. If yours is going to be in one place this year, this is the kind of session it makes.

Four generations on the beach for spring break. The great-grandparents in the center have lived in San Clemente for over sixty years and she's never moving. Their daughter flew in from Virginia to make this happen. Sessions like this don't happen on accident. Someone in the family decided this year was the year and called everyone in. There's a saying in this family that once you're in, you don't leave. If yours is going to be together this year, this is the kind of session it makes.

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.
