welcome to my blog! For those of you just visiting for the first time, welcome!   My name is julie weaver and I am a Southern California based photographer. I have been a professional photographer for the past 10 years and have specialized in weddings and portraits.

Having a family of my own, I understand the importance of capturing those little moments that seem to flash before our eyes....the quirky smiles, the scrunchy noses, the temper tantrums, the interaction that takes place between you and your child....and even those wonderful teenage years...it's priceless and gone before you know it!  I am THAT person who gets to capture those silly and precious moments that you love so much. That's why I absolutely LOVE my job!

Thanks for stopping by!

This past holiday weekend, I had the pleasure of shooting Andrew and Gila's wedding at the beautiful Laguna Cliffs Marriot in Dana Point, CA. Kary from kary h events seamlessly coordinated this event and as you will see, everything was absolutely beautiful! The other fab vendors that made the day perfect: Videography: Ashley Video Productions Florist: Enchanted Florist Band: Antix Entertainment Cake: It's All About the Cake Here are some of my favorites from the day! Gila looked so stunning and elegant. I love how excited GIla was when she saw Andrew for the first time! Andrew was just as smitten.... Kary did an amazing job incorporating all of the colors in the details: and more great details..... Congratulations, Andrew & Gila! Hope you have a relaxing honeymoon in Italy!

Childhood friends....family friends....these two have known each other forever and to see their love that they have for each other sent chills through me every time I saw them smile! I had the pleasure of documenting their wedding day and loved every minute of it! Sharlene Griffith was the incredible coordinator who ensured that every last detail was just perfect and did a fabulous job at keeping Christopher and Clarissa happy throughout the day! A BIG thank you to Sharlene! Here are some of my favorites from throughout the day....I must say that Clarissa's make up artist was wickedly  talented....I will find out who he is and let y'all know!   You'll see what I mean when you see how beautiful Clarissa looks! Is this not the cutest little flower girl you've EVER seen???!!! The beautiful and serene Japanese Gardens at Long Beach State: the gorgeous Mr & Mrs Christopher Aggard: Everything was so beautiful and it was so much fun working with Christopher ans Clarissa! Thank you for making me feel so welcome on your beautiful day!  Have fun in Kauai!

I had so much fun photographing Dan and Brianna's wedding at 7 Degrees in Laguna Beach.  There were so many great details...and blue was a continuous color throughout the day! I loved Brianna's Betsey Johnson shoes! My favorite detail of the day:
