Julia Streich Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $700
  • Serves Lihue, HI

***Please be sure to contact directly through my website listed below, Zola messages are not checked regularly*** Located in Northern Kauai, the Garden Island of Hawaii. Documenting love stories with soft lit narratives and playful interactions.

We did a couple’s wedding/honeymoon photoshoot with Julia in June (sunrise at Waikoko). We found her on the Knot and from the beginning she was quick to reply and easy to communicate with, which was great for us. We took the majority of the pictures in our wedding attires - and those are some of our favorite photos of us ever - and some in bathing suits. Julia was very flexible when it came to the timing of the shoot as the weather was constantly changing. We could not avoid the rain completely, but Julia had a see through umbrella we used and those photos are so precious! She gave us enough time to finish all the poses we wanted, and delivered the photos in a timely manner! She made edits on request as well. We really love the way she captured the beauty of Kauai and also our love in our pictures. We recommend Julia Streich Photography!

My husband is my second photographer, so we come as a photo team! Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I Got You!

PictureMeThisbyLacie was the most amazing photographer we could have dreamed of. Lacie and her husband made our day an absolute breeze!

From the first moment my grandfather placed a Sony Cybershot in my hands at age 13, I knew the magic of capturing life's most profound and intimate moments was meant for me. Now, after nearly 24 years behind the lens, what began as a childhood hobby has become everything to me. My commitment to you as your photographer is to apply my skill, creative mind, and decades of experience to your occasion so you have fantastic, tangible memories to look back on years from now. I have made it my goal to become proficient across a wide range of photographic/editing styles, in order to better serve the needs and preferences of each individual client.

Awarded Best of Zola
My partner and I were looking for an affordable, creative photographer who could work with a couple that had no idea what they were doing—and Johnny was absolutely perfect for us! From the start, Johnny was incredibly flexible and made us feel completely at ease on the day of our wedding. Despite us giving him no direction, he managed to capture beautiful, candid shots that we absolutely adore. If you have a specific vision for your wedding photos, I highly recommend sharing it with him—he’s so talented and I’m confident he’ll bring your ideas to life. Even months after our wedding, Johnny was patient and accommodating, re-editing photos to suit our preferences, which we deeply appreciated. If you’re looking for a stress-free experience with an easygoing yet artistic photographer, hire Johnny—you won’t regret it!

We are incredibly grateful Xenia was our engagement/wedding photographer and couldn't be happier with the results! The photos will speak to her technical talent; her professionalism and dedication to her craft are evident in every shot. It was so hard for me to only select 6 photos. What the images don't explicitly show is that Xenia was an absolute joy to work with. She is clear, transparent, and helpful in her communication. Her straightforward and friendly communication ensured we were always on the same page and felt supported throughout the process. While shooting, she is organized and efficient. We got every shot we hoped for and then some. Her enthusiasm and joy were infectious. She made these two awkward nerds feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. We cannot recommend Xenia enough! We will cherish the photos you took forever!

Calea was amazing from start to finish! I live in GA and got married in OR. All I saw was her IG and a brief conversation to book. I could not be more impressed with her and her work. I put all my faith into her from across the country and she did not let me down. Calea is so easy to work with and she is up for anything! Calea had sneak peaks to us immediately and a full gallery delivered in less than 2 weeks! My husband was skeptical at first but when he saw her work, he was absolutely blown away and how phenomenal she is! Calea also isn't afraid to be the voice if you are uneasy with telling others what they need to do. We had her at our Venue the day of the wedding. The next day we took a trip to Crater Lake and she captured my vision perfectly!! I have recommended Calea and True Light Photography to all of my friends and family!

Aloha and congrats! You’re considering to get married on the beautiful islands of Hawai’i or beyond — your own slice of paradise! I’m here to help you capture it in the most spontaneous, colourful, and nostalgic way possible. My name is Tâm, a full-time Dutch freelance photographer with a passion for traveling the world and capturing once-in-a-lifetime moments for amazing couples like you! From enchanting Mediterranean coastlines to fairytale châteaux in France, with Italy and Brazil on the horizon this summer and next year — clients have entrusted me to capture their love stories in a way that feels authentic, personal, and timeless.

From the very first time we reached out to Tâm, he was so enthusiastic and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. Before even putting together a proposal, he took the time to really listen to our ideas and get familiar with the location, which made us feel so at ease and understood. What really stood out was his initiative, he went beyond just showing up with a camera. He suggested a beautiful nature reserve near our venue for part of the photo session, something we hadn’t even thought of, and it turned out to be one of our favourite parts of the day! I was a little nervous at first, worried the photos might feel too posed or unnatural, but Tâm reassured us to just be in the moment and enjoy each other while he worked his magic. And honestly, we couldn’t be happier with the results! The photos feel so effortless, real, and full of emotion. We’re beyond grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully!

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful.

**TO CONTACT: VISIT MY WEBSITE. I AM NOT ACTIVE ON ZOLA.** Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Sarah was absolutely fantastic. From the beginning, communication was smooth and effortless, with prompt responses to emails and even video conferences to discuss details. Our photography package included an engagement photoshoot in addition to wedding photography. The quality of the photos from both our engagement session and wedding day was outstanding. One of the highlights was receiving a few 'preview pictures' shortly after each shoot, allowing us to enjoy some beautiful moments right away. The pricing was transparent, and the payment portal was easy to use, making the financial aspects stress-free. Throughout the process, Sarah provided invaluable advice on shot lists and was incredibly easy to work with when it came to posing. If we had a specific idea or location in mind for a photo, she not only took the lead but also enhanced our vision beyond what we could have imagined. She also emailed us ideas and example photos for different locations for our engagement photoshoot, helping us make our vision a reality. On our wedding day, Sarah took many photos throughout our events, including getting ready in the bridal suite, first looks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and reception. She was excellent at directing our family members to ensure we got all our posed family photos. Sarah also took some beautiful shots of just us post-ceremony. Throughout the dinner and reception, we felt at ease and relaxed knowing Sarah was there capturing every moment. Beyond the professional aspects, our interactions with our photographer made us feel like we were working with a close friend. She always helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera, despite us being introverted and inexperienced with being professionally photographed. Her support and encouragement throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding were truly appreciated and added to the overall wonderful experience. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a talented and personable photographer for their special day.

I’m Grace Troutman. I’m a wedding & elopement photographer who loves to frequent the West Coast, Hawaii, and the Midwest (where I grew up.) I approach working with my couples on their weddings from a place of trust and compassion, so I can document the day how it is true to them. No forced moments, no stiff posing, only true to life candid imagery. I’ve shot all over the world from Iceland, Ireland, & France to all over the Midwest, all the way to California and Hawaii, and I believe that you should say “I do,” in a place that makes you feel like home.

Grace is pure MAGIC! We had the absolute pleasure of working with Grace for our engagement photos and our wedding day - She came highly recommended from trusted friends and when you see her work, it's easy to understand why! Grace is attentive, warm, inviting. She truly makes you feel 100% comfortable being in front of the camera which is not a small feat. By far the best investment we made throughout our entire wedding process was the decision to work with Grace and her team. We now have the most incredible photos that will last a lifetime and we could not thank Grace enough!

Finding the right wedding photographer is very important! Each of my clients (turn friends) are extremely special to me. We will find a time to grab a coffee and discuss what you envision for your wedding day, talk details, timeline, colors, and so much more! Together we will create photographic memories that will never be forgotten.

Rachel photographed our rehearsal dinner and wedding day and I had an amazing experience working with her! Her work is incredible and she captured our memories beautifully. Her timeless, classic style is exactly what I envisioned. She made everyone feel so comfortable, she even learned the names of our immediate family members (my MIL still raves about how much she loves Rachel)! We enjoyed spending most of our wedding day with her, she is lovely and made taking lots of photos so fun. She was also very experienced in creating a photography timeline and helped prioritize what was important to us on our wedding day. I highly recommend Rachel for all your photography needs!

Aloha, I'm Mai, the photographer who will be capturing your day from start to finish. My passion for capturing your special moments is something that I can't get enough of. There's just something so beautiful in telling someone's love story through my lens that is just so magical it has me wanting to do it Every, Single, Second. I consider photography to be an Art of storytelling and I would be honored to be a part of your day. Allow me to capture your love story, so that you can tell it to others.

I came across Mai's profile and after reviewing her website I reached out with many questions. She was very responsive and after a brief call, I loved her energy and decided to go with her. The pre-wedding communication was easy and Mai joined us for our wedding rehearsal at the venue. On the wedding day, we worked with Mai and her second shooter Amy. They were lovely to work with and felt more like ohana than just our photographers. They captured our entire day and were so accommodating. While we anticipated our wedding photos to take some time, Mai shared a few sneak peaks and were blown away. After a few weeks only, we received our entire album and are so grateful and happy with the images. We can't thank Mai and Amy enough and definitely recommend them to anyone.
