Unapologetically

Julia Schweiss Photographer, SoCal

Getting to know Julia…

behind the camera

I’m a huge believer of doing things your own way. If no two love stories are the same, then why should your wedding look like anyone else’s?

I believe your wedding should honor who you are as a couple, and your photos should reflect that! You’ll find through my process that I truly care about getting to know who you are as individuals and as a soon-to-be-wed couple. I value connection more than anything, and I find my best work comes from a feeling that I truly know you and can translate that connection to what I capture behind the camera.

If you’re looking for a copy-and-paste, show-up-and-shoot wedding photographer, you won't find that in me.

some tidbits

What I’m all about

  • Dirty Paws - Of Monsters and Men

    • The Alchemist

    • any of the Harry Potter books

  • Hot: Black Coffee

    Iced: Oat Dirty Chai

  • Florianópolis, Brazil

  • - Handwritten letters

    - The first warm coffee of the day

    - The feeling of salty hair and sea spray

    - Long road trips in open spaces

    - The feeling of taking off in an airplane

    - Nostalgic rainy movie days

    - Polaroid photos

  • Travel is in my DNA. I've been all over the world and am creeping up on checking every US state off my bucket list! I'm always down for a road trip, cross country flight, or a quick jaunt to the other side of the world for an adventure, and you better believe I'll have my camera on me - check out my print shop!
