Joanna was amazing! So professional and wonderfully creative. She is a true artist! My husband and I were so happy that she was able to document our wedding day. I am very pleased with the photos and with the work that she did. She was at our event all day and brought an assistant to help capture every little nuance of the day. I would recommend her to anyone and we really couldn't be happier with the results!
Michael & Rachel's whimsical & heart filled summer wedding took place at Washington Square Park. A darling little park located right in the heart of Stillwater, Minnesota. Just a few blocks from Nelson's Ice Cream : The bride got ready at a private historic Stillwater home nearby. This wedding was filled with so many playful simple touches & authenticity it was truly a heart melting experience to photograph! Congratulations Mike & Rachel!

Natural, fresh.. Living photographs! Joanna and her husband Randal can capture the most special moments. They are willing to work with you, and make you feel comfortable. Great ideas, versatile, and spirited. She has done my senior photos and wedding photos, and I couldn't have chosen better. Thanks Joanna!

You spend a great deal of time with your photographer on your wedding day. This is not something my husband and I thought about prior to booking Joanna to photograph our wedding, but I am so happy that we did! Our wedding-day portrait session was fun and low stress. She helped us plan how much time we would need so we would get the images we wanted while making time right after the ceremony to soak in the fact that WE'RE MARRIED! She knows weddings and she gave us great advice and captured the images we treasure.

Joanna has such a blessing in the craft of photography. Her pictures are freshly unique and different. She will do everything in her power to get the "perfect shot". I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with her over the past years. Joanna's personality is contagious, and she will have you feeling comfortable in front of the camera in no time at all!
I especially appreciate her dedication to trying new techniques with camera settings and such. Photo's from Julia's House are always one of a kind, and I could not be happier with the end results each and every-time I shoot with Joanna. Looking forward to my next opportunity to use her services. So impressed!
