Hello, so GLAD YOU'RE HERE!

I'm Julie and there is nothing I love more than documenting birth and childhood *(well, actually,, this comes after my girls and family!) I'm certainly not the only one to say this but I was deeply moved after having my two little girls and my passions for anything birth related and photography led me to become a Birth Photographer.
In my opinion it's the most fascinating type of photography out there: it's raw, unposed and just simply beautiful, no matter what type of birth you have. I then discovered film making which brings these moments to life and I was hooked!

Here are some tit bits about myself so you can get a feel for who I am:

I'm Belgian, married to an American from Montana and we have two little girls born in Miami: Scarlet and Romy. We also have a cat, Uni, born in Panama who has moved to Miami, Dubai then Oakland with us!
I have lived in 15 cities in 11 countries. There are so many wonderful things in each location but I do miss family and friends each time we move to the next destination!
I am the most sentimental person you will meet - I keep just about any ticket stub, take photos of any 1sts my daughters do, I take WAY too many photos (my husband always laughs that I like to document EVERYTHING - and he is right!) , I cry just seeing random strangers say goodbye in airports, I write a note for my daughter to put in her lunchbox every day,...
I take the same weekly picture of my daughters - no matter where we are - I think they are tired of it! We have skipped a few weeks during this covid-year but will not stop!
Each year I have the same resolution of traveling light - but I fail within the first month of the new year...
I dream of speaking fluent Arabic. I am taking classes with the most amazing teacher ever!
I love airplane food - yes, I know, that is weird to most people!
I prefer to drive a manual car versus an automatic.
Some of the little things in life that I love: sleeping in on weekends (even though that does not happen anymore!), moving to new places, when a smell takes me back to a great moment back in time.
And some little pet peeves: when a car seatbelt "blocks" when you try to pull it further, when the compost bucket is full,

Oh - and I am certified by Birth Becomes Her and a graduate of The Every Day Film School

"If you are debating having birth photos taken, I’d say : Don’t hesitate!
I cried when she sent me a selection to choose from, as it brought back all the emotion felt on that special day."

RACHEL - DYLAN'S MOM

"If you are on the fence about whether to have someone document these most intimate moments, be assured that Julie is anything but intrusive. She made us feel comfortable as she captured every moment and you will truly be as happy as we are having something so special to look back on for years to come."

SHAY - MILAINA'S MOM

"We're so happy that we had Julie as our photographer. She has an eye to capture real life moments. She is a friendly person and she made us feel comfortable during the entire session. The pictures are beautiful ! Thank you :)"

MORGANE

"Julie was with us for 12hrs of labor, She was patient and kind all the time. I had a difficult labor and was very comfortable hearing such inspirational words from her. Her photos and video transcribed with emotion and care details that we weren’t able to see at the moment. We’re very happy to make such a special moment last forever through her photos and video."

DANNI - CECILIA'S MOM

"Julie, I would like to thank you yet again for the most beautiful pictures and film you have made for us. I am just so incredibly grateful for what you have made for us. It is all so beautifully captured and especially the film is beyond beautiful and precious to me. Like many mums, I do not have a lot of footage of myself and my daughter as I am mostly the one taking pictures and videos and I also do not really like being captured on camera. I am extremely impressed how you have been able to capture me, a camera shy person in such a natural way and made me feel comfortable. This is partially due to your talent and an eye for special details and most importantly you are one of the most warm, genuine and friendly persons I have ever met. Thank you Julie, this film and pictures in such an important milestone of our and Elodie's life will be forever cherished."

DANIELLE - ELODIE'S MOM

"Julie did our fresh 48 photos and she was amazing! Unfortunately we couldn’t have her for our birth photography as I ended in C-sec. But she captured perfectly our first hours as a family, every emotion and moment that we will be able to look back anytime. She is not only talented but her energy was amazing and calm which made it a perfect match for a first time mom trying to figure it all out!"

ANGHEL - LAYLA'S MOM

"Julie is such a lovely and warm person, within a couple of minutes of meeting I felt as though we’d been friends for years! Julie put me at such ease and worked with such calmness and professionalism, her warmth and compassion shone through- which is very evident in the beautiful photographs she captured! The video that Julie put together was so unique and thoughtfully put together, it encapsulates that moment in time perfectly! I only wish I’d booked Julie earlier for photographs at the hospital as I know they would have been amazing!!"

STEPHANIE - EILEEN'S MOM

“Julie has an eye for capturing the sweetest moments and details. I’m so thankful we had her take photos of our family!”​
