Julie Kittredge Art & Photography bio picture

Welcome to my blog!

Thanks for visiting!

I'm a mom to three amazing kids, wife to the man who swept me off my feet 12 years ago, and a child of God. I'm passionate about a lot of things, my family, my friends, my faith just to name a few. 

I love the art of photography, messy mixed media, teaching, and inspiring others. I'm transparent and open, ready for girlfriend time at a moment's notice. I love watching my kids get excited about the things they are good at, and walking them through the things that are hard in life. I try to be intentional with my time, authentic in everything, and I try to embrace every moment. My goal for this place is to be a source of sneek peeks for my client's captured "moments" as well as a place to share my own as these fleeting days of parenthood fly by. I want to remember the moments that are often taken for granted in the busyness of the day to day. There is beauty and joy in taking time to freeze a moment with a picture, and even more joy in sharing it with others. Thanks for taking the time to visit. I hope you leave inspired in some way! 

self portrait project {8}

I almost missed this week’s portrait! Lot’s of redecorating going on here! This picture is evidence of {more} piping being made for my new slipcover for the couch – mom the sewing genius – was here Thursday and Friday doing her magic on my slipcover – I cut, she sewed and did all the mental work to make it absolutely beautiful and professional looking! I’m so pleased!!! This weekend I put the finishing touches of the cushions together. It looks so awesome. And the paint on my fingers is evidence of a weekend total face-lift of my living room – it’s called “Marilyn’s Dress” by Benjamin Moore. It’s a beautiful shade of the lightest grey-blue … almost white. I love the color so much we did the kitchen too!!!!! I loooove it! It’s the perfect backdrop to all the color I have in the rest of the pieces of my living room and kitchen. Will show and tell later. I have to paint my desk a new color before I unveil … as the blue just doesn’t jive with the new wall shade of blue. I love love love paint! It’s the perfect cure for a way too long winter.

Spring Sessions!!

anna joy

I believe her name is everything she’s going to be in the lives of those she touches. She’s a beauty! She did not want to sleep for me, but she’s so so cute! True joy!

The pictures we did get while sleeping where quick – we held our breath for the few minutes we got out of her!! She’s soooo cute! She has all this skin that makes great little baby rolls!

Her mama is so in love with her …

Just 5 days … so sweet and new. I caught a baby yawn!!

Can it get any better than this ?! Two Nieces! Oh my … I don’t know how the photographers do twin newborn shoots … getting them both in a deep sleep at the same time was a joke! I have a new huge appreciation for custom photographers who specialize in newborns … they have an incredible amount of patience and they earn every penny they charge!!

Anna Joy {5 days} is on the left and Baby Bekah {2.5 weeks} is on the right – those are the names that Kiana calls them.  She was so excited to go see the babies – she told Nana, “I’m going to hold ALL of them!” And I’m thrilled to pieces to be an Auntie!! I love love love them!
