your photography experience 

what to expect

My name is Zulie and I live in Northern California! From the moment that I morphed my photo hobby into a photography business I just knew that I made the right choice. I get so much joy from photographing people, and capturing the love that comes with it all; and getting to call it my job is the icing on the cake! 

I’m here to make sure they show the true you

As a photographer its my job to take the photo. As the client, its your job to just be yourself. This includes where we do your photos, your outfits, and your mindset. Everything should be reflecting who YOU are and how you want these photos to feel!  

Your job: just be YOU. Trust me.

I want nothing to ever feel forced during your session! My goal is to tell your story without feeling like anything HAS to happen or be a certain way. Props? Only if you want them! Posing and prompting? If needed I will lightly direct you in a way that helps you understand but doesn't ruin the organic feel or look too stiff!

Nothing forced

Something i hear a lot from my clients is how comfortable i made them feel during their session. My job revolves around this! I promise to do everything in my power to make you and your person feel comfortable with me so that your photos reflect that. Side note: trust me! ;) Going with the flow and just loving on your significant other is sometimes all it takes. Again…CONNECTION!

Raw, effortless photos

I don't think of you as just my client! I value everything about your experience and I strive to make you feel important.

You are important

My husband and I LOVED working with Zulie!! She took the awkwardness of having a camera in front of you and turned into a super amazing and fun experience! She made both of us feel so comfortable!! I love how her photography captures the raw and romantic moments! We love working with her!!!

I could shout from the rooftop about Zulie’s art. She made my husband and I feel beyond comfortable around her after only 2 minutes. We met as complete strangers to elope on the beach and walked away with an amazing friend. She takes so much pride in her work and is beyond humble about it which makes her work 1000% better. Not only that, she over delivered for us. We eloped just by ourselves, and I can’t explain how much these photos mean to our close family because they still feel as if they were a part of our day. We could not stop staring at our photos and were in disbelief that she caught so many intimate and special moments. We have always felt nervous about being in front of the camera and didn’t want to feel “posed”. I don’t think one picture that came back looked posed. The entire photoshoot was so easy, unique to us, and REALLY FUN! She has now since been a part of our growing family and I can;t wait for many more moments she will be able to capture for us in this special stage of life.

Q

OHH YES. I will literally travel anywhere in the world for you! And I do my best to make it as easy as I can for you on the budget side of things. :)

Do you do destination weddings? 

We figure out how long you need me on your day, and we go from there! All weddings are different, especially if its a small elopement vs. a bigger wedding! All weddings get an online gallery of images.

What does a wedding usually entail?

I get asked this more often than not, and I have the same response every time. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. I do not heavily edit my photos, because my passion is showing raw and real beauty.

Can you edit me and make me look skinnier? 

Duh! But no, really, I want to make sure you are getting exactly what you want. That is why I don’t just have set packages for set things. I want to customize and make your package just for you to ensure everything is perfect

Are you packages customizable?

I deliver your images in an online gallery that makes it easy for you to download, share, and favorite from! I do not set a limit to how many photos I deliver because every session differs from another. I do not hold back :)

Where do I receive my photos and how many do I get? 

Nope! I pride myself in delivering beautifully edited images that I spend so much time perfecting. I’m hoping that you are choosing to book me because you love everything about my work :)

Can we have the RAW images, too?

Sure! But also keep in mind that every session and wedding are their own. Everyones is different, and one will never be the same!

Can we see a full gallery?
