BEHIND THE LENS

​

Photography is my passion and it really is no surprise.  My father worked in the film/slide and later the scanner divisions of the industry and I was surrounded by this for my much of my life.  I was blessed enough to always have cameras around and picked up my Dad's 'happy clicking' habit.

 

I kept snapping away and became really involved in scrapbooking, which I did for many years.  Recording the memories of my family, our children, trips and everyday moments that make up our lives.

 

A few years ago, something changed in me from 'snapping away' to really paying attention to the light and trying to compose meaningful images - images that capture the spirit, the attitude of the people we are.  Back to school I went and began my quest for information and education in photography - lucky enough to have some of the best in Photography and Visual Communications mentoring me.

 

That's when I realized my dream.  My potential.  My passion.  That's when Julie Michelle Photography was born.
