Welcome! Relax and stay awhile.

Hi, I'm Julie and my last name is Socher but it's pronounced soccer. I'm one of those people who keeps every single photo, even if it's out of focus. Call me a hoarder of photos if it makes you feel better. There's something about capturing a moment and creating memories that I just love. I strive for natural light and use my flash only when I absolutely have to. I also like the challenge of exploring different and untraditional locations. I tend to laugh a lot too, and loudly. Don't say I didn't warn you.

I'm an aspiring photographer and full time graphic designer in the DC, MD and VA area. This blog showcases my most recent shoots, design work and personal ramblings. Want to know more? Want to schedule a session? Shoot me an email and let's chat.

Oh, and don't forget to say hi!

Ms. S :: Maryland Boudoir Photographer

Ms. S is an aspiring model. Needless to say she made it really easy and was a natural at posing! She’s going to do great with her modeling career. Thank you Ms. S, I had a great time!

Ms. A :: Maryland Boudoir Photographer

I had a blast with Ms. A. She had an assortment of outfits to choose from and I thought it was amazing how each outfit brought out a different side of her. It was hard to choose just a few from her session. Thanks Ms. A! He’s gonna love them :)

Beautimus!

My Niece :: Southern Maryland Portrait Photographer

Along with my sister and I was my niece. So while we were getting shots of my sister, I had to get some of Mercedez. Sooo preeetttyyyyy!!

Head Shots of my sister :: Southern Maryland Photographer

My sister was in need of some head shots so we ventured out to Solomon’s Island, MD and did some exploring. She made it really easy because she makes herself laugh! She’s such a goofball. We had a blast. Check her out.

This last one is HOT. My favorite. :)

Ms. V :: Southern Maryland Boudoir

I’ve neglected the blog for quite some time now. I hate that! I’m going to try harder to be more frequent with the blog posts. But I’ve been pretty busy with designing wedding invitations (which I plan to post here sometime soon) and my full time job. And in that time, I had an opportunity to do a boudoir shoot for Ms. V and 2 other of her girlfriends. And they will be posted very soon. And in case you’re wondering, I don’t post any boudoir photos on the blog without permission. So it was a fun session trying out different outfits, different poses, and a little wine :)

So what exactly is boudoir? Pictures of half naked ladies? Well, a little yes, but it’s more than that. It’s that inner vixen dying to come out baring it all for the world to see, or maybe not the world, but a select audience you wish to show it to. Rewind to back in the day in France, “boudoir” was translated as a woman’s private dressing room.  Boudoir photography typically takes place in a bedroom setting, hotel room, or any setting to create a romantic, sexy or sensual feel. What it’s really about is you, giving you that empowerment and allowing yourself to be you!

Anyway…Here is Ms. V showing off her inner vixen!

Thank you Ms. V for a fun session!
