About Julia

Growing up in Cody, Wyoming less than an hour from Yellowstone National Park, Julia developed a love for nature at an early age, which eventually led her to pick up wildlife photography. Julia spends most of her time in Yellowstone photographing various species of wildlife, though grizzly bears are a favorite. A graduate from the University of Wyoming, Julia holds a B.S. in Environment and Natural Resources and a B.A. in History; she is now pursuing wildlife and outdoor photography full time. Julia works as a photographic and wildlife guide at Skyline Safari, as well as a host for various photography workshops. When not photographing, Julia also enjoys fishing, drawing, writing, camping, and spending time with her lab Sylvan, who accompanies her on all her adventures. Loosely based in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, Julia’s overall goal in photography is to capture impactful images of native wildlife that highlights the wildness of the American West while inspiring others to spend meaningful time in nature. Julia is also dedicated to ethical wildlife photography in order to keep wildlife wild and allow them to behave naturally without interference.
