Your day deserves so much more than a shot list.
Authentic, intentional, and timeless photography
Your wedding isn’t a checklist of ‘must-have’ photos — it’s a whirlwind of love, laughter, and quick moments you don’t want to miss.
My job is to make sure you actually live those moments while I capture them naturally.
Whether your mom’s zipping up your dress, you’re sharing quiet pre-ceremony jitters (in the best way), or tearing it up on the dance floor, I’ll be present, camera in hand, and ready to document it all with an eye for what makes your day uniquely yours.
I work closely with your planner and vendor team to make sure everything runs smoothly, so you can be fully present on your day.
I’m Julie Anderson
A North Carolina wedding photographer and documentary lifestyle photographer with a passion for turning life’s cherished moments into authentic, true-to-life images.
For me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a personal investment in your story. I take the time to truly get to know your personality, quirks, and what’s important to you. This is how I’m able to curate a gallery that feels as one-of-a-kind as you are.
Connection is at the heart of everything I do. I approach every shoot with an unobtrusive perspective, making space for your most authentic self to shine.
That’s where the magic happens — organic, honest images you’ll absolutely love.
Even if being in front of the lens isn’t your thing, I promise you’ll feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated. (Trust me, you’ll be saying, “omg, can you believe this is us!?” before you know it.)
I started this journey because I believe every love story deserves to be told honestly and beautifully with the real magic that happens when you’re fully in the moment.
When I started this business, my kids were just one and [three], and they’ve grown up surrounded by cameras, photo albums, and memories. They’ve also grown used to “Mommy always carrying a camera” and adore flipping through our family albums to relive our adventures.

Your story doesn’t stop at “I do”
Life’s biggest moments aren’t just reserved for your wedding day — they’re found in the small, everyday routines.
From Saturday mornings flipping pancakes with your kids to anniversary hikes in the mountains, I’m here to capture all the milestones, the quiet moments, and the chaos that makes life so beautifully real.
Dreaming of getting married somewhere epic? Let’s go!
While North Carolina will always be home (and I do love a good Raleigh wedding), as a destination wedding photographer, I’m always ready to hop on a plane to anywhere.
From Oaxaca to Yosemite to Budir and beyond, I’ve been fortunate to experience some of the most breathtaking places on earth. Whether you need help planning logistics or scouting picture-perfect locations, I’ll handle the details so you can focus on the adventure.
Living out of a suitcase is basically second nature at this point (unpacking… not so much), so wherever your love story takes you, I’m ready to follow.
Love is love
Love is universal, and so is my commitment to celebrating it. No matter who you are, who you love, or how you choose to celebrate, I’m here to create a space where you (and your people) feel seen, valued, and celebrated — no exceptions.
Your story, your love, and your moments matter, and I’m honored to capture them with honesty and care.
Your wedding photographer isn’t just ‘someone with a camera’ — it’s about finding someone who gets you.
(Uncle Bob’s great, but he can’t give you the same experience, I promise.)
When you book me, you’re booking someone who gets to know you, handles everything personally, and delivers a truly tailored experience. I know the trust you’re putting in me to capture your most meaningful moments, and I don’t take that lightly.
Let’s connect and start planning how I can tell your story.
