EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Adding another perfect review to the pile. Julien offered top-notch service from our first inquiry to the delivery of our final pictures. He was always quick to reply to any texts and worked with us to make our vision come to life. His work ethic and passion for his craft are unmatched. We are not from Colorado, so it was daunting to find a photographer on very short notice and trust that they could deliver on quality; after setting up a phone call I was confident we made the right choice. Julien was a pro at accommodating the hot mess that we were that day and also accommodating our dog on the adventure. His knowledge of providing perfect lighting and breathtaking backdrops made for pictures that are hard to believe are real. Our photo gallery was complete in record breaking time, and it brings us so much joy to look through all the pictures. Besides being an amazing photographer, we enjoyed getting to spend a few hours with him and having great conversation. We are very happy with Julien’s services and would not hesitate to use him again in the future!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My fiancé and I got engaged on the outlook of San Sofia & we couldn't be more thankful to have that moment captured on camera. When we got our photos back we were in awe, it was like looking at images from a hallmark movie. We are so happy and grateful that we can now share those moments with our friends & family. Julien was very helpful and easy to work with throughout the process. 10/10.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Julien is amazing! He is so talented.

I hired Julien to help plan a surprise proposal during our Ouray vacation. Julien went above and beyond in his planning. He suggested a great spot for our sunrise drive, set up the surprise perfectly, and took phenomenal photos of the proposal we will cherish forever. We also did a mini engagement shoot after where Julien guided us with ease and made us feel so comfortable in what I expected to feel awkward. He also captured great photos of our pup! I would highly recommend Julien for any photography needs, especially in the Montrose/Telluride/Ouray area as his local knowledge was exceptional!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

We highly recommend Julien to capture your special events and moments!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My fiancé and I had a great time taking engagement photos with Julien! We knew we wanted lots of foliage in our pictures and Julien gave us multiple options for locations. He even sent us pictures of the different locations the week leading up to the photoshoot so we knew what the foliage was looking like ahead of time and could make a decision on exactly where we wanted to go. The shoot itself went smoothly and was very enjoyable. Julien is very passionate about photography and loves to share his knowledge with his clients, which my fiancé and I really enjoyed. We received a few sneak peeks less than 24 hours later and our entire picture gallery was sent to us not even 3 weeks later. We both definitely would recommend Julien to anyone looking for a great photographer. He was knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, an excellent communicator (this is huge since I know many many people whose photographers were terrible at communicating) and overall just fun to be with! We are so happy to have such beautiful pictures to look back on for years.

FAQ.
My photography style is bold, vibrant, and timeless. It is not overly posed as I am always making sure I capture not only posed photos but also candid moments.
I am meticulous in my work, ensuring that your photos are enhanced to their fullest aesthetic potential. Whether it’s addressing stains, editing out imperfections such as frizzy hair, or eliminating any elements that are not permanent and should not be present in the picture, I am dedicated to delivering a flawless final result.
Absolutely I do! I always offer a flexible payment plan especially for weddings.
For timely scheduling, I recommend booking as soon as possible. Specifically, for weddings, I advise securing a date at least 6 months in advance. For senior sessions, scheduling can be a bit more flexible, particularly if weekdays are convenient for you. It’s important to note that dates are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so prompt booking is advisable to secure your preferred slot.
All over Western Colorado for engagements & senior portraits, and all over the state + Moab for weddings!
