    Oh my. I'm so glad I found Julia. Our maternity shoot with her and the images we got back far exceeded our expectations. Not only is she such a kind and friendly person, but she's also amazingly talented and has a wonderful eye. It was so windy the day of our shoot, but somehow she managed to capture me and my husband in a way I honestly didn't know was possible. I can't thank her enough for capturing this beautiful time in our life.

    Newborn session

    My husband and I were looking for a maternity photographer and became overwhelmed with all of the available options in the Bay Area. Some criteria we were looking for was to find with someone local to us in San Jose that was familiar with various locations close by, someone that uses natural light in their photos, and an ability to capture emotion and feelings without being too posed. I found Julia's work through Instagram and was instantly drawn to her style. I reached out and she promptly replied to me with more information and her availability to do a 1 hour maternity session. Our original scheduled shoot took place during the same time that the air quality was so poor from the wildfires, and Julia proactively reached out to us to reschedule for a later date so we wouldn't need to compromise quality of our photos, which I really appreciated. During our session, Julia, instantly made us feel comfortable due to her sweet demeanor and helped us pose in natural, non-awkward ways (which we always need help with!). I was 35 weeks pregnant at the time and pretty slow moving, but she was super patient and encouraging with us. After we were done, she sent a few sneak peek photos that evening and we were so excited to see the rest. Julia delivered the photos in record time, and we loved every single one. I knew after our experience and the quality of her work that we would work with her again, and we did! We also hired her for a 2 hour newborn session in our home, and she was so open to letting us do several outfit changes and ideas for photos we wanted. She was patient with us and our little 2 week old baby (which he thankfully slept for 90% of the time). Once again, she quickly turned around the most amazing photos of our baby and little family that I can't get enough of and know we will cherish forever. I can't say enough positive things about working with Julia, and I highly recommend her for family, lifestyle, newborn photography!!

    I stumbled across Julia's Instagram profile while searching for a photographer to take maternity and newborn photos and booking her was the best decision my husband and I ever made! She is professional, sweet and is absolutely amazing behind the camera. The location she recommended for our maternity photos was absolutely stunning and the photos turned out better than I could have imagined. The newborn session took place in the comfort of our own home and the photos turned out beautifully. I loved the fact she was able to capture all the little details of our nursery and let our dog be apart of the shoot as well. I would highly recommend Julia for anyone looking to capture these special moments in your life. You won't regret it.

    We contacted Julia a couple years ago for a family portrait session when my daughter was six months old after seeing many of my high school friend's photos that she had taken. We loved the photos and her simple, light and airy style photography. We just had another family portrait session with my now 2 year old and baby on the way. She is also very responsive and able to deliver the photos exactly when she says they will be ready. I also love the sneak peak she does where we get a few in the couple days post the shoot. We can't wait to take some more with Baby #2 next year :) Thanks Julia!

I knew from the moment I saw her work that Christina was going to be the right choice, and she did not disappoint. Tons of positives: - she was easy to communicate and plan with, even when I wanted to switch one of my locations the week of the shoot - she made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is no small task - she was flexible with my ideas, but also brought her own to the table - photos were back even sooner than I'd expected, and were of the quality I'd seen on her website But I think what I liked best was Christina herself. She was extremely pleasant to work with, and treated my casual event with the same professionalism and respect that she would a wedding. She had very positive presence and brought a really good energy and enthusiasm to the shoot. She was a lot of fun and brought out the best in my partner and me. I'm so glad I selected Christina and Nightingale Photography, and she would absolutely be my first choice if I were to need a photographer again. Thank you!

Prior to the…read moreshoot, we had an intro call where we talked about the goals and objectives for the shoot. She was so easy to talk to right off the bat. We discussed location options, outfits and she made it very clear that she wanted it to be our vision-I was happy that she took the time to get to know us. The day of our shoot arrived and Shannon met us at our house. We instantly connected and my husband and I felt very comfortable with her right away. We had a great time doing the shoot and it was fast and simple, with no stress. A few days following the shoot, Shannon came over again and we went though all the photos together. They were so beautiful and it was a fun experience. I was instantly in love with all of the pictures. Shannon showed us her many photo options, and helped us pick out a canvas collage for our living room. She took her time with us to make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted! I never felt rushed or pushed into any products, she genuinely wanted us to love our product choices. The whole process start to finish was enjoyable! We are so happy with our new photos and we are proud to show them off to our friends and family! Her work is amazing, and she is a joy to work with. 5 stars!

I came across Kree's Yelp page because of how close she was, but what really stood out was her website--the caliber and vibrancy of her photos were incredible. I knew right away she'd be a perfect fit for capturing my niece, both in her cap and gown and in her super colorful prom dress (which I was confident Kree could do justice!). From the moment I reached out, Kree was super responsive and easy to communicate with. The contract was simple and straightforward, pricing was fair and the breakdown of her packages were awesome. and she helped us agree on a time and location that worked perfectly, not far from our house either, which was a huge plus. On the day of the shoot, Kree arrived right on time and immediately made my niece feel comfortable. Since it was my niece's first time being professionally photographed, I appreciated how Kree guided her with poses and gave her direction to bring out her best angles. She was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience fun. We received the edited photos about two weeks later, and they were amazing, better than I could have imagined. Kree truly captured my niece's personality and the significance of the moment. Highlights for me: super responsive communication, an easy-to-understand contract, a convenient location, her friendly demeanor, and of course, the beautiful final photos. Thanks so much Kree!!!
