WHY I DO WHAT I DO:
I’m Julie of Julie MK Photography I have a passion to capture your family’s memories because the time is now! Life doesn’t alway go as planned so don’t wait, make the most of today! Not only am I committed to making fabulous images of your family, I’ll also take the stress out of it and actually making it an enjoyable experience! Being a 30 year military spouse one can’t help but be affected, touched and forever changed by long separations and other issues. It is truly heart breaking to see someone looking through their family photo album realizing it is an empty representation of their time together as a couple or family. |
WHY JULIE MK PHOTOGRAPHY IS DIFFERENT:
Let’s face it there are a lot of photographers for you to choose from in Northern, VA. What sets me apart from the other Photographers? During the entire experience I create for you from start to finish, I am there for you. It starts with assisting you in wardrobe coordination, picking the location, on to selecting the images and products that will suit your family and home best. With my background in interior design I am further able to guide your choices and help with where and how to display them.
My goal is to create a FUN & stress-free experience for everyone, especially YOU.
YOU want the real fun that you and your family experience everyday to show through in your photos! It is my intention to create an experience in which the whole family is willing to cooperate. I have my ways! ;-)

That's me scouting a location!

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
Important in real estate yes, but also important where you get your family photos made! I have lots of great locations that I use! And I’m also open to scouting out a location that you have in mind! THE BEST IS YET TO COME! It doesn’t end there though! A lot of photographers snap the photos and then send you on your way! They leave it to you to just pick images from an online gallery, the Julie MK Photography experience includes your own Gallery Reveal Night! If you like, I will come to your home with a scrumptious dessert and a slideshow of your images. I’ll even have product samples along for you to see and touch. This is also when you will be able to place your order! Sound exciting? If you are looking for a family photographer in the Northern, VA/DC area then let’s get started! Contact me and I will send you more information along with my prices. |
HOW I GOT STARTED:
Like many moms my interest in photography was developed because of my own disappointment with my poorly composed, blurry, under or over exposed images of my own family. So while my husband attended a Harvard fellowship for the Army I took the opportunity to expand upon my then hobby and take DSLR Photography, Composition and Digital Image Editing classes in Cambridge, MA. Additionally, to learn even more, I have assisted area photographers. To continue my education I also attend seminars, in person and online. I am also a member of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society where I have placed in several competitions.
Once I honed my skills as a photographer I knew I had a worthy life mission! Having a limited budget for gear I started with a basic consumer grade DSLR camera. Fast forward, I’m fully geared up (no pun intended) my mission includes getting the digital images I produce for my clients up on their walls, in a beautiful album or special photo box where they can be truly appreciated and cherished!
