2020: What A Year...Part One

 Like many of you, 2020 has proven to be quite the wild ride.  My husband and business manager spent a month in the hospital after a minor procedure turned into an emergency situation.  He has been recovering slowly since March.  Thanks be to God, we were still able to keep taking portrait sessions though COVID made things a little more interesting.  I will be sharing some of the photo sessions as we wind down towards Thanksgiving.  Despite the craziness of this year there is always something for which to be thankful.  Always. 

Another Beautiful High School Senior!

FALLing into Senior portraits!  This beautiful young woman has been photographed by me a number of times over the years, but her Senior Session was particularly special to me.  Seems like she went from sweet little girl to beautiful young woman overnight!

Currently booking for late Fall...and Christmas.  The years keep going by faster and faster.  Don't let them slip away without making your memories into ART!

High school seniors are so much fun to photograph! As the weather gets cooler, i've been scheduling as many seniors as possible to get that last bit of Autumn color!  If you weren't able to get on the schedule this month, no worries, the studio has many lovely backdrops of all kinds/styles...and it's warm =)  We look forward to working with you soon!

Baby Photographer in Occoquan, Virginia

This Beautiful Princess came back to the studio for the third time, but for this session she brought her 9 day old baby sister!  The studio is currently booking into the winter and we have several openings left for Christmas portraits.  As always we thank you for your support and look forward to working with you!

Semper Fidelis!: Family Portraits in Woodbridge, VA

I had the great honor of photographing this family, with both mother and father serving in the Marines.  It was a joy to capture some special moments for them.  If you serve in the military and are looking for some fun AND more formal portraits, contact the studio today to book your photo session.  We look forward to hearing from you!

What to Wear for a Photo Session!

One of the most frequently asked questions i receive is 'what should I wear?' I thought a few examples might be helpful for those planning to book their sessions in the coming days. Basic rule of thumb is to mix patterns, textures and solids that incorporate similar colors, without being all 'matchy-matchy'. Here are some ideas! Fall portrait sessions are booking now!

The navy blue compliments this sweet boy very well, and is a nice contrast to the pattern and texture of his shorts.

With a beautiful, large family, it can be a challenge to figure out what everyone should wear! This family pulled it off perfectly with a great mix of patterns and solids that pull together wonderfully!

 I love that this couple mixed up the red, white, and blue with various patterns in the shirt, flag scarf and bright red solid. It came together perfectly!

Love the vibrant pattern and classic look this couple put together. Perfect!

Fall Portraits

Fall portraits have been in full swing all over the DMV!  I traveled to Maryland to capture this beautiful family, as they celebrated the 1st birthday of their youngest child.  The weather and the foliage were perfect!
If you or someone you love would like to book a session, now is the perfect time to pick up a gift card.  Gift cards can be used to purchase an entire session, or can be put toward prints.  Visit the website for more details. Occoquan Photographer, Lisa Julia Photography
Until next time...

Occoquan Family Photographer

It's a huge understatement to say that this year has FLOWN by, and staying true to myself, i realize i have been the worst blogger ever!!!  I suppose it's *GREAT* that we've been busy with a huge variety of photo shoots, and hopefully in the coming days i will share what we've been up to over the last number of months!!  Today i am sharing a lovely Grandma and her adorable grandsons. Occoquan recently had the Grand Opening of the new Park, so we were able to take advantage of the new LOVE sign!  Enjoy the photos and enjoy the rest of the summer!  Tomorrow we leave for Minnesota to photograph a wedding over the weekend.  Stay tuned, and thank you again for all the support over these last many years!!!
