Julie did an amazing job with my daughter on her first birthday! She was able to schedule us quickly, the photos were a last minute idea, and was so kind and flexible when nap time didn’t go as planned that day! My daughter was happy and comfortable in the studio and the final pictures are amazing- it was really tough to choose which ones to keep!
