 welcome to my blog! For those of you just visiting for the first time, welcome!   My name is julie weaver and I am a Southern California based photographer. I have been a professional photographer for the past 10 years and have specialized in weddings and portraits.

Having a family of my own, I understand the importance of capturing those little moments that seem to flash before our eyes....the quirky smiles, the scrunchy noses, the temper tantrums, the interaction that takes place between you and your child....and even those wonderful teenage years...it's priceless and gone before you know it!  I am THAT person who gets to capture those silly and precious moments that you love so much. That's why I absolutely LOVE my job!

Thanks for stopping by!

Last weekend at our “Get Tha Funk Out” retreat we were fortunate enough to be filmed by Christopher Lee of Onward Films who is a brilliant artist and videographer!  He did a fabulous job with our video and I wanted to post it up.  We had so much fun filming this, and I can't wait to show you more of the images that we have.....STAY TUNED!!!!

a sneak peek...
09.09.08
O.K...so this past weekend was so incredible.  My pho-girls and I had a killer weekend bonding, inspiring, laughing (nearly peeing our pants a few times!), and brainstorming for our workshop. We even managed to take lifestyle/headshots of each other to update our blogs & websites (stay tuned!) On day 3 we had a live shoot with high school seniors while simultaneously having the fabulous Christopher Lee from Onward Films shoot footage of the 4 of us  in the midst of all the craziness!  A HUGE, MASSIVE "THANK YOU" goes out to Chris for putting up with us crazy ladies! The reason Chris was there was to shoot video of us for our much anticipated "Get Tha Funk Out" Workshop that we will soon have more info on....stay tuned!!!!  We had such a great time! Although I am up to my ears in editing from this past weekend, here is a little sneak peek of a couple of our super adorable seniors!

Last night was my monthly PUG meeting and as always, we had a great time discussing business, PICtage, and getting our doses of inspiration! Joanne Distaso was our Studio Spotlight and she talked about how she started her career in photography one year ago...it has been so fun watching her business grow and I am so inspired by her drive and passion for  for photography.  She is also a very cool person and so easy to love!!!  Great job last night, Jo!
