Whether you're getting married in Key West or are just visiting, it's a fabulous place to have your Engagement Photos taken at. With our Moment, Candid style we fuse our unique take on light and camera creativity to delivery truly unique Engagement Photos that represent you as a couple. We are not simply trying to emulate a shot from yesterday, but delivery unique images that represent you as a couple.
We cut the strings and give little direction. Documentary photography is capturing what actually happens, rather than trying to orchestrate events to photograph. Some of our clients worry this equates to ugliness. It doesn't. Life is beautiful. When we are open to the story and shoot to capture it as it unfolds, magic happens.

Full disclosure, I haven't gotten our photos yet but I have no doubt they will be wonderful! David and Julie are an absolute joy to work with!! My now husband and I were dreading the photography part of our wedding. We're both awkward introverts and being in front of a camera does not come naturally to us. David and Julie were a joy to communicate with before the wedding. They took the lead since we had NO idea what we were doing and drove us to a beautiful location for some of our non ceremony shots. We had a small 5 person wedding and all 5 of us really enjoyed working with a David

Let me just stay DON’T USE this photographer or her husband’s business Big Day in Key West. I had contacted these businesses when I found out that I was losing my job. IT is over a month’s notice that I would not be able to get married at this time and we have to cancel the wedding. Paying for a place to live instead of spending money on a wedding seems like a logical thing to do. Julie messaged me on FB denying the return of my deposit because she claims she can’t get the business any longer with 30 days+. Don’t waste your money on something that isn’t guaranteed. This is the worst

We knew we wanted to work with Julie and David from our first call with them. Their approach to photography was exactly what my husband and I wanted for our wedding day - documenting it exactly how it happened. Neither of us have ever been big fans of overly staged or posed pictures, and knew that for our wedding day, we wanted a photographer that would capture us as naturally as possible. And they did not fall short! Our pictures are absolutely stunning and I still catch myself randomly looking through the albums every few nights, since we haven't printed any out yet!
Julie and David made us

Studio Julie Photography of Key West Florida - documentary wedding photographer - not just a photographer - but rather a caring artist who captures those candid moments - that make you smile, cry, and just plain happy. We did not want the boring posed wedding photos - Julie & her husband David - besides being super nice and easy to work with - care about their bride & groom & the guests - and were in the mix (on the floor, in the sand, hearding Hemingway cats) - capturing those moments of a wedding celebration. Grateful & happy to have had the best wedding photographers on our special day & grateful

Julie and David are beyond amazing. We had family pictures taken with them during our vacation in Key West. They are both so nice and friendly and were also patient with our little kids and just rolled with whatever our kids seemed to be doing. This made the whole session more pleasant and comfortable for not only the kids, but for my husband and I as well. We are in love with the pictures they captured and we highly recommend Studio Julie Photography!

Studio Julie was everything and more that we could have hoped for in our wedding photographers. From check in phone calls leading up to the big day, to helpful advice and tips the day of, and finally to coordinating our album with them afterwards, every step of our experience working with them was absolutely perfect. I'm camera shy and before I met them, I wasn't sure what a day of working with photographers would feel like, but I quickly realized I had no need to worry-- they made me and everyone at our wedding feel so comfortable and the photos turned out amazing. It can be stressful picking

We selected Studio Julie for family photos at Ft. Zach. Booking and scheduling was a seamless process. David and Julie were a pleasure to meet and spend an evening with while they chatted with us and took beautiful photos of our family. They were so good with our young girls, including them in the process and getting to know them. They captured “real life” images. My biggest challenge is picking which ones to display. We highly recommend!!

Amazing!!! My husband and I love our photos!!
Studio Julie is a husband and wife team. They are amazing! We got married on March 9, 2019 in key west. They sent us a gallery of black and white and color pictures that they took. We were blown away when looking at our photos. We chose them due to their ability to take candid pictures. They took so many wonderful candid photos of our ceremony and our reception. We wanted to have sunset pictures in key west and they were able to capture beautiful sunset pictures for us. We would highly recommend them to any couple that wants unforgettable wedding photos

This is a shout out to Studio Julie and her sidekick, David, with support from their amazing son! We accidentally bumped into each other, or more likely, FATE brought us together roughly 15yrs ago for our eldest daughter's Sweet 16. Since then, there has been no one else we have let into our lives to capture those, oh so precious, moments! Between the: various parties for our children; wedding ceremony (soon to be ceremonies); 20th anniversary party; (Grand)Baby showers; Day of delivery of our grandchildren sessions; multiple "Day in The Life" sessions; and finally this 50th Surprise

There is no one I trust more than Studio Julie when it comes to capturing precious memories! I have been lucky to have Studio Julie take photos for my wedding as well as take my family portraits. These images are priceless and I will cherish them for a lifetime! Julie’s style of photography is innovative, fun, and truly one of a kind. If you have the chance to work with Studio Julie you will not regret it for one second I promise!!

There was no shortage of happy tears on our wedding day. They flowed all over again when we received our gallery from Studio Julie.
David and Julie both have an incredible eye. If you appreciate a photojournalistic approach, this is your team.
We are not the most comfortable pair in front of a camera, but the combination of their relaxed approach and clear instructions made our experience perfect. We had no memory of their presence during the ceremony, and yet they captured the most intimate shots. We trusted their judgement and let them take the lead for the day and cannot be happier with the

Julie and David are absolutey amazing! What talented photographers! I mean they really go out of their way to capture some unique and perfect moments. And when I say go out of their way...I mean it! Not to mention they are just so fun to be around. Julie was in the girls room taking photos while we were all getting ready and she made me feel so comfortable. When it came to shooting photos at the reception I literally didn't even notice that they were in the room. I mean serious stealth mode! I highly recommend them. Especially for those candid moments. After all, those moments are priceless

Studio Julie is the most unique take on wedding photography I've seen. If you want candid moments you want Studio Julie. It is exactly why we chose them. We have some beautiful portrait style pictures as well, but so many wonderful moments that help tell the story of our wedding day. David and Julie are such an incredible pair and work harder than the fisherman on Deadliest Catch. We love all of our pictures and really enjoyed working with them. #totoafrica

I could not have asked for more. Julie and David are not only the most talented photographers but they are incredible human beings. They are able to put you at ease and are dead set on capturing your vision while allowing you to be yourselves. They truly listen. I highly recommend Julie and David for anyone looking for genuine photos with a personal touch. Thanks again you two!
