" 6/5 Stars! While we planned our wedding everyone told us, “invest in the photographer, scrimp wherever else but invest in the photographer!” When my now-wife announced that we had selected Julia Goldberg I realized she took that advice to heart. I felt brave one day and asked something like, “but do we need to spend this much on pictures? Will it be that valuable?” Well, anonymous matrimonial planner, let me tell you it absolutely is that valuable and the reason surprised me: my wedding day was a beautiful blur of activities I rarely got time to savor. I wanted the day to last a week but it felt like a flash. Julia captured so much incidental beauty in all these moments I couldn’t connect with. She made permanent perfect memories out of fleeting joys and I am not just satisfied with the pictures she sent us, I am thankful for the experiences she saved. She communicates well, she is organized, she is very easy to work with, and for the potentially temperamental brides-to-be out there my lovely (and temperamental) wife would like to mention that Julia is a consummate professional with a Saint’s patience. And if you suppose she charges too much, mark my words: she doesn’t charge enough”

"Wow! What a wonderful adventure with Julia. My partner and I enjoy being outdoors and hike a good amount, but this was a new, fun, and special experience. Julia was able to give us such a sweet and romantic elopement day. The pictures came out beautifully, but the experience is what I will remember and cherish the most. We had lots of laughs and a good amount of adrenaline :p My partner is not super into these types of festivities, but even he enjoyed this experience. People at Yosemite were very kind and hyping us up, the views were spectacular, we got a great hike in; the whole experience was healthy and wholesome, which was a great vibe to have for our special day and to start our marriage off with. Thank you Julia for planning the day and leading us. We appreciate your hard work all day (and night!) with artistic angles and lighting, great direction so we felt comfortable, keeping us on time, and crowd control while my husband and I just got to skip around happily and enjoy each other's company without a worry. I could tell you listened to us about what we wanted, which I really appreciated! Julia also gave us access to our photos ASAP, so we could enjoy them right away. You could not pry those polaroids out of my hands for the first day lol. Our families and friends also enjoyed the sneak peek, we got lots of wow's and some great laughs."

"My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Julia Goldberg on two separate occasions. The first time she shot our engagement photos at Filoli Gardens (would highly recommend) and again for our City Hall Wedding! Her pictures are just absolutely stunning and breathtaking! Words truly don't do her photos justice. She captures every detail of you and your surroundings so beautifully and makes everything look so natural and elegant, while also catching the best candid moments of you perfectly. The way she directs you and communicates with you to make you feel as relaxed and happy as possible, to forget the photographer is even there, is exceptional. Even with doing group shots of us and our families she was great at directing all of us in a very kind and patient manner which isn't always easy, but she made it feel so. We can't recommend her enough to have her capture the most precious memories of you and your loved ones that will live on forever. We cherish the photos that she has captured of us and our families and plan on using her again as our family grows in the future and every special moment hereafter. Thank you so much again Julia, we are eternally grateful to you."

"“I can’t say enough great things about our experience with Julia! From the initial interview to the wedding day (or days in our case) she was very personable and professional throughout the whole process. On our expected wedding day there were so many hiccups including the weather dropping 30 degrees over night with 30mph winds and heavy rain. Plus, I unexpectedly got sick after the first location we shot together for our private vows and had to cancel the whole day. Julia really came to our rescue, I was extremely upset but she remained in constant communication with my husband while I was getting sick and she rearranged her schedule just for us to meet right outside of Portland hours before her flight was due to leave. The second locations road was in unexpectedly terrible condition but she found an even better trail close by. She really thinks on the fly and can make the best out of every situation. We may have not gotten our beach pictures (due to weather and sickness) but instead we got these amazing cliff side and forested pictures! She really captured the details most important to us and created memories for us that we’ll never forget. Thanks to her our wedding was saved and our pictures turned out beyond expectations! We will always be grateful for our experience with such a compassionate soul and hardworking individual! If you’re worried about posing or pictures looking candid then Julia does a great job directing and making everyone feel comfortable! I can’t count how many times she made us laugh and smile like fools in front of the camera! We plan on using her services for some anniversary shoots and family photos in the future. I can’t recommend her enough!”

"Julia was truly a one-of-a-kind photographer for our elopement in Africa! Despite me and Sarah’s awkwardness, Julia made us feel so comfortable and gave us endless ways to make the shoots feel natural.Julia captured the love that Sarah and I have for each other in a way that was so meaningful and heartwarming. We had the privilege of Julia shooting us on three days in Tanzania. The shooting locations all had their unique challenges - booking and timing issues, endless misting at the waterfall, and the heat + dust + wild animals + everything else you’d expect in the extreme wilderness on the Serengeti - and Julia handled them like the absolute professional she is. Julia was so patient with everything during the shoots - nothing was rushed, from scoping out the perfect spot for our commitment ceremony to waiting for the ambient lighting to be perfect. Julia is an expert at her craft and it shows through her work and professionalism. When Sarah and I talked about eloping, we knew one thing (even before we decided on a location) - that we wanted Julia to be the photographer. A simple scroll through her portfolio is more than enough to see why. She far exceeded what we expected from our elopement photographer and for that we are so grateful. One of our highlights (and surprises!) came when we parted ways from Julia on our trip - Julia came into breakfast with a small hard cover album of more than 30 sneak peek polaroid print-outs to take along with us. She had spent the night and morning printing out the small polaroids so we had an instant take-home memory book of our week. It was so special and meaningful, and unexpected! I would recommend Julia one hundred times over for her work, who she is, and the care she takes in making the experience more than just about the photography!  "

Sarah & Stu
“My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Julia to capture an anniversary shoot near Monument Valley. We cannot say enough good things about her and her talents! In fact, this is our second time working with Julia, as we were so impressed with her the first time. What sets her apart is her unwavering commitment to her clients. The day we were supposed to shoot, it rained during our scheduled time and they closed the road to Monument Valley. Always prepared, she did additional research before arriving, knowing there was a possibility the weather would not cooperate. We ended up in the Valley of the Gods, a Monument-Valley like area only 30 mins away, where we had almost the entire landscape to ourselves. What could have been a disastrous shoot turned into one of our greatest experiences as a couple. Adding, her warmth and friendliness will put you at ease instantly, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, allowing even the shyest individuals to shine in front of the camera. She is also quite adventurous- the perfect person to bring with you to the edge of any cliff, through any forest, and atop any mountain. Julia understands the art of angles and lighting, capturing both posed and candid moments from unique perspectives that add a magical and appealing touch to each photograph. Her shots are truly incredible! We consistently get compliments on our photos and we always say the same thing- it was 10% us, and 90% Julia! Anyone seeking a photographer for special occasions, couples or family sessions, or really anything else, could not go wrong by hiring Julia.”

“Julia was absolutely amazing and such a pleasure to work with. If we could give her more than 5 stars, we would!! She took the time to learn about what we were looking for and really captured every moment! Her photos are natural and authentic and that is what we wanted! All we can say is HIRE JULIA FOR YOUR SPECIAL DAY!!”

Aya & Richie

“My now husband and I are not very comfortable in front of the camera, but Julia knew just how to lead us through the process and capture some beautiful shots. She knew all the right spots in SF City Hall, moved us around the building as the day light shifted, and we could not have asked for better photos. We went home with some polaroids she took that only made us more excited to see the rest of the pictures. Julia was wonderful to work with and took the stress of taking photos out of our wedding day. She was patient and a pleasure through our whole session and we could not recommend her enough.”
