Portrait photography rooted in your story
Tell me about youAbout me and how I work
A photo session isn’t just about beautiful frames — it’s the outcome of trust we build together long before the shoot. We often get stuck in one image of ourselves and forget how many sides we have. A shoot is a way to feel new again, to remember everything you are at once: tender, strong, daring, romantic. And every one of those sides is beautiful.

Stories of women
PATRĪCIJA
Patrīcija is a mother of many children, a creative person, a strong and loving woman. People are used to seeing her composed and self-assured. But behind the steady surface there’s a personal story — a pain she has lived with for years and can’t simply leave behind. She came to the shoot not to hide it but to live with it. To touch her own feelings through photography — gently, carefully, honestly. And in that process there appeared not only acceptance, but a feeling of inner release.
Words
What they say after
«I came in tense, afraid of the camera. I left with the feeling of having been held. Julija creates an atmosphere where you simply can’t be anyone but yourself.»
«My dearest friend! You are unbelievably gifted, and you should know it. You’re able to feel, see, and capture that one astonishing moment when the person on the other side of the camera exhales and fully opens up.»
«I finally saw myself through someone else’s eyes, not a selfie. It’s a completely different feeling — when someone sees in you what you stopped noticing about yourself long ago.»
«I felt like I kept drifting off somewhere, and you kept bringing me back — to my feelings, my thoughts, to what we were doing. And now, looking at the photographs, I see how delicately you sensed what was hidden in me: the beauty, the strength, the freedom I forget about so often.»
«Thank you for letting me see myself the way I truly am! This experience and the feelings around it will stay with me for a long time.»
«The way I feel now — it’s exactly what comes through in the photos you made for me. We did real work together, and most importantly I got exactly what I had pictured when I came to you. Bravo, Julija!!! You have a real gift for capturing what people are made of.»
