JULIA RICHTER PHOTOGRAPHY
So you want to be fully present, have the time of your life,
+ get the photos of your dreams
YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT PLACEA wedding that feels like you. Photos that bring you right back.
We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Julia! On our wedding day, she was so much more than just our photographer.
About a month before our wedding, we unexpectedly found ourselves needing to hire a new photographer, and she stepped in without hesitation and completely saved the day. From the very beginning, she made us feel like everything was going to be okay, and we are SO grateful that we found her.
She helped keep us on track, guided us throughout the day, and made everything feel organized and effortless. She had such a calm and reassuring presence, which is exactly what you need on a day that can feel like such a whirlwind!
Neither of us are naturally comfortable knowing what to do in front of a camera, and she was incredible at giving us direction, helping us pose, and coming up with beautiful ideas. Nothing ever felt stiff or forced. Our photos turned out so timeless, romantic, and effortless, and she captured the feeling of our day so beautifully. Looking through them genuinely feels like reliving our wedding all over again.
It’s hard to believe she came into our wedding plans only about a month beforehand because everything felt so seamless. What could have been an incredibly stressful situation ended up leading us to someone we are so thankful was there to capture one of the most important days of our lives.
If you are looking for a photographer who is talented, creative, helpful, calming, and truly cares about making your day special, we could not recommend her more. We will forever be grateful to her for stepping in when we needed someone and giving us wedding photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

HEY THERE
I’m Julia
Photographer, overthinker of the little details, and big believer in being present.
I'm happiest when I'm creating something beautiful, connecting with people, or planning my next adventure. My background in event planning and nursing means I'm naturally organized, observant, and pretty good at anticipating what people need before they even ask.
I bring that same energy to your wedding day, so you can spend less time worrying about what's next and more time enjoying what's happening.
The difference is in the details.
A few things that make working together a little different.
A planner's mind behind the camera
My background in event planning and design means I'm always thinking about the bigger picture. From timelines and location recommendations to the little logistical details, I love making sure everything comes together thoughtfully. I'm naturally a few steps ahead, so you don't have to be.
A calm presence when it matters most
Before photography, I worked in nursing, where anticipating needs, reading people, and staying composed in unpredictable situations were part of everyday life. I bring that same attentiveness into wedding days. Plans change, emotions run high, and things don't always go perfectly. You can count on me to stay present, adaptable, and focused on what matters.
Always looking for what's about to happen
My approach is documentary at heart, but there's more to it than simply waiting for moments to unfold. I'm constantly observing, anticipating interactions, and looking for the little things happening just outside the spotlight. The moments you didn't even realize I caught often become the ones you treasure most.
An experience that feels like you
I believe your photographs should reflect the people you actually are, not a version of yourselves performing for the camera. Whether you love editorial portraits, meaningful details, or the beautiful unpredictability of a packed dance floor, I'll meet you where you are and help create an experience that feels natural to you.
Thoughtful beyond the wedding day
I'm passionate about creating a positive impact through my business. As a woman-owned, inclusive photography business, I want every couple to feel welcomed and celebrated. I also donate 1% of every booking to the World Wildlife Fund, supporting wildlife conservation and habitat restoration.

5- STAR RATED REVIEWS
“We are very happy with our experience with Julia! She did such an amazing job capturing our wedding day, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was able to capture all of the beautiful moments that happened throughout the day. We are so glad we will be able to cherish these pictures forever. Julia is very calming and was wonderful to work with. She was very easy to keep in contact with and could answer questions very quickly. It is clear that she cares about her work and the people she works with. My husband and I highly recommend Julia!.”
-Sarah & Brandon“This was by far the easiest decision I’ve made in this wedding planning season. Julia couldn’t have been the most perfect person for this job. When I suggested my venue she planned everything ahead of time, ensuring that we would be prepared for the day. She was easy to work with, comforting, and definitely helped us capture this special moment. We received our photos so quickly and immediately fell in love with them.”
-Kyla & Matt“Julia is the absolute best! Her work is amazing, and she made the entire session feel comfortable and effortless. She creates such a fun, relaxed atmosphere, and the photos turned out amazing. If you’re considering booking with her, do it because you won’t regret it!”
-Laura & AdrianThe Experience
My job is to take beautiful photographs. But my role in your wedding day goes a little further.
From our first conversation to the final gallery, I'm here to make the process feel thoughtful, organized, and genuinely enjoyable. I'll help you think through the details, anticipate what comes next, and create room for the moments that matter most.
Because you deserve to be fully present, enjoy every minute, and trust that the important things are being taken care of.
Here’s what’s in store for you when you work with me:
A thoughtful, seamless experience from our first conversation to the final gallery.
01. Getting to Know Each Other
Every wedding begins with a complimentary consultation call. It's our chance to get to know each other, talk through your vision, hear what matters most to you, and answer any questions you have. I want you to feel comfortable, excited, and confident that you have the right person by your side.
What this includes:
Complimentary consultation call
Time to talk through your vision, priorities, and photography needs
Guidance on choosing the collection and coverage that make the most sense for your day
02. Planning with Intention
A little thoughtfulness behind the scenes goes a long way. I'll help you create a photography timeline that allows your day to flow naturally, with plenty of room to enjoy the moments as they happen. From location recommendations to logistics and the little details, I'm always thinking a few steps ahead so you don't have to.
What this includes:
Personalized wedding photography timeline assistance
Location recommendations and photography guidance
Help thinking through logistics and timing
Ongoing communication and support throughout the planning process
Complimentary engagement session with collections of 8 hours or more
03. Your Day, Documented
When the day finally arrives, you get to be present. I'll document the meaningful moments, thoughtful details, and all the in-between interactions that make your celebration uniquely yours. I'll offer gentle direction when it's helpful, step back when the moment calls for it, and adapt as the day unfolds.
What this includes:
Wedding-day photography coverage based on your selected collection
A second photographer with collections that include one
A calm, observant approach with gentle guidance when needed
Thoughtfully edited, high-resolution images
A beautiful online gallery to view, download, and share your photographs
More Than Just the Photographs
The little things that make a big difference.
A Planner's Mindset
With a background in event planning and design, I naturally think a few steps ahead. I pay attention to the details, anticipate what might be needed, and help keep the photography side of your wedding day running smoothly.
A Calm, People-First Approach
My nursing background taught me how to read a room, adapt when things change, and make people feel comfortable and cared for. Whether you're camera-shy or plans take an unexpected turn, I'm here to help you feel at ease.
Photographs That Feel Like You
I believe the best photographs come from being able to experience your day, not constantly perform for the camera. My approach is documentary at heart, with thoughtful direction when needed, so your gallery reflects both the beautiful details and the genuine connections that made your day yours.
A Little Something Beyond Your Wedding Day
I'm passionate about making a positive impact beyond the celebrations I photograph. That's why 1% of every booking is donated to the World Wildlife Fund, supporting wildlife conservation and habitat restoration.
“Julia made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable during our entire shoot. She had such creative photo ideas and truly captured the best photos we have together. She was very prompt with getting our photos back to us. We haven’t stopped talking about how much we love these pictures and moments she was able to capture! We look forward to having her photograph our future session, and we highly recommend Julia’s work.”
