ABOUT JULIEANNE
“It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are.”
Paul Caponigro
Hello. I’m Jules.
Mumma to two. Wife to one. Sister to five. Auntie to way too many to count.
My whole life I have been surrounded by people. Growing up as the youngest in a huge family taught me so much about love, patience and togetherness. I was taught at a young age that anything was possible.
I grew up in a house with a super loved-up and caring mum. She did nothing but look after us kids, along with most of the other kids in the neighbourhood!! Nothing was ever too much. If I had a friend who wanted help, they always had warm dinner and a bed for as long as they needed.
I was raised by the most optimistic and hard-working Dad, who still to this day adores being a motor mechanic. He showed me the importance in loving what you do.
I studied teaching and taught primary children for ten years but in the end it wasn’t enough. I didn’t love it enough. So it was during my third year of teaching year 5/6 students that I found I needed to practise what I preached. “Chase your dreams…don’t settle.” And that’s exactly what I did.
So here I am and I’m thankful that with all the incredibly talented photographers out there you have decided to stop and take a look at the stories I love to tell. The best way I know how.
Jules xx.
