Through authentic writing, photography, and video, Julie’s storytelling approach doesn’t involve any extra lights, posing, or sugar-coating reality for Instagram. Instead, she likes to be a fly on the wall with her camera and a notebook, capturing candid moments of real people doing exactly what they would be doing if she weren’t there. Her favorite subjects are the outdoors, bold women, travel, the American West, and anything that’s awesome. She writes magazine features, creates documentary photo essays, produces and shoots films, and constantly rethinks how stories are told. Whether it’s for a big brand or a small personal project, her goal is to create engaging content that informs, entertains, and inspires. She was a Sony Alpha Female, she was the first female Editor in Chief of Climbing magazine, and she was once named one of the most talented people in the outdoor industry. She and her pit bull Lizzie lived in a van for several years before settling in southeast Idaho at the base of the Tetons, meeting her partner, and getting a second dog named Alfie. She thrives when she’s chasing a buck hunter 10 miles in the backcountry, interviewing captivating subjects, empowering others to tell their stories, shooting climbers on a big wall 1,500 feet off the ground, or reveling in the chaos of a messy artist’s workshop.
