I absolutely could not be happier with the photos!
My fiance and I wanted a photographer that could catch us having fun, genuinely smiling, and was patient enough to work with our quirky schedule. My biggest fear was pictures that looked like we were posing and putting on a smile. We chose Julie based on her blog and thought that she would be a perfect fit.
For our engagement session, Julie met us on the one day of the week that we could fit in our busy work schedule. Throughout the entire session, Julie kept it light hearted, let us do our own thing and was so so easy to work with.
When we received our photos, they were above and beyond our expectations. She caught us in the moments when we were laughing, genuinely smiling, and on top of this she added creativity that we could not have imagined.
The wedding planning process is stressful enough, but choosing Julie has made the entire process SO MUCH easier. I would not only recommend her to a friend, I would insist they use her. I couldn't be happier.

A few weeks ago, Julie did our engagement pictures in downtown Raleigh and it the gardens at the church where we will get married in August. She is an absolutely amazing photographer and person! She is so easy to work with and made us feel really comfortable the entire time. We recently got all of the digital prints from her and they were beautiful. I can't wait for her to be with us again in August on our special day. If you are looking for a photographer who gets to know you as a couple, works with you (and your budget), and captures amazing photos, Julie is it!

Julie is one of the best decisions we made regarding our wedding planning. She is very personable, professional, creative, and has a quick turn around time on photos for those of you who want to see what they will look like sooner rather than later.
We felt very comfortable being photographed by her at our engagement shoot and she was more than willing to provide some advice for what to wear and which locations in the Raleigh area would be good for photos. We went with locations my fiancee and I picked and then one that she found along the side of the road for sunset photos - a last minute selection that turned out to result in some fabulous photos. She also got great shots of our chocolate lab that we brought along for the photo shoot.
I can't wait to have her photograph our wedding and would definitely use again for other special events worthy of a great photographer.

Julie has been such a pleasure to work with from the start! When I first met her I knew she would make both myself and my equally camera-shy fiance at ease during our engagement photo session and ultimately on our wedding day too!
For our engagement pictures we loved Julie's idea of taking pictures on a canoe at a nearby lake. However on the day of our session, Mother Nature did not love the canoe idea....it was only a few degrees below what the park would allow canoes to be rented. Within minutes Julie thought of other great picture ideas and I couldn't be more pleased with how the pictures turned out...we actually have too many to choose from for ourselves and our family! It can't go without being mentioned that we were also able to bring our dog for these pictures and now I have a real "family" photo of all of us!
I would recommend Julie for your wedding photography, she's incredibly willing to work with her clients and of course is a professional at what she does! I can't wait to see how our wedding pictures turn out! Thanks Julie!! :)

Julie was an absolute dream! She was so sweet to be willing to work with my budget just a few weeks before my wedding day, and the quality of her work is incredible. She definitely went above and beyond as a wedding photographer, rallying people together with her positive attitude and fantastic energy. Unlike many Raleigh photographers, Julie was willing to include print rights in her quote, which is a huge deal to us! Our only challenge now will be the difficult task of choosing which of her beautiful photos to have printed and framed in our home! I love all of our wedding photos and look forward to working with Julie again for portrait sessions and any future event photography.

Julie was great to work with! We used her for our engagement pictures, and it was a seamless process. Julie was great at communicating with us before and after our photo session, and delivered our picture to us timely. She was very easygoing and relaxed during the session, which put my fiance and I at ease as well. It was not awkward at all. She understood the theme/vibe that we were going for in our pictures, and the finished product truly reflected that. Our pictures turned out great - we loved them! Would highiy recommend Julie to future brides!

Julie's pictures were absolutely AMAZING!! She captured every precious moment with stunning, crystal clear resolution. I've never seen anyone's pictures turn out this good, and I've looked through a lot of friends' wedding albums. And beyond her great pictures, Julie is also a great person. She is extremely nice, easy to work with, professional, young, and creative. She is very close to my age which made it fun to talk with her. We actually still keep in touch today. I will definitely be recommending Julie to all of my friends who will be getting married soon, and they will be thanking me later. She's the best I've seen, call her up, I promise you won't be disappointed.

Julie is an incredible photographer and the definition of an ARTIST. She is meticulous, her work is beautiful and she's an all around great person. I looked at several photographers before going with Julie and choosing her was single-handedly the best decision of my wedding planning process.

My engagement and wedding photos were amazing! Julie captured details that I never thought of and the pictures had that personal and artistic touch unlike many other photos I've seen. (and I looked at many!) Julie was so helpful working with my budget, and she was not only professional but fun and easy to work with. She's helpful with any questions and you get your photos back so quickly!. If you want gorgeous photos to remember your day Julie's the best! I'd highly recommend her.

I was so pleased with the bridal portraits that Julie took for me. They were beautiful. One can really tell Julie has a great eye for photography. My friends and family have had nothing but great things to say about the outcome. I will always treasure the photos. (Including some great candid pics she took of me and my Mom. They are so special to me.)
Julie was very easy to work with, made me feel comfortable, and always accommodated my schedule. She took time to answer any questions I had, listened to my ideas, and didn't try to rush me through anything when I needed a break. And was fun to be around!
I would strongly recommend Julie Livingston Photography for anyone looking for a professional, fun, and creative photographer who will work within your budget and provide quality pictures. She will not disappoint!
