welcome. Thanks for stopping by!  My name is Julie Wilhite and I am a portrait/wedding photographer based out of Houston, TX.  That's right, I'm a Texan...and I promise I don't ride a horse to work everyday.  Feel free to take a look around, maybe even drop me a note.  Would love to hear from you!

And so the celebration of Erum and Aman continues!!  Our second day was the biggest crowd by far, with everyone coming together at the Paraiso Maravilla for their Sangeet. The food was amazing, the music was kickin' and the dance floor was packed!

Hey Julie, just got the email for the Lyon Shop in Vegas and sadly won't make it to the dinner the night before so I just wanted to reach out to everyone and say HI and introduce myself! :) It will be my first year to WPPI! Anyways your work is beautiful! I love your processing and the 2nd to last picture of the bride and groom is crazy good! Hopefully we can talk more at the Lyonshop! YAY! -Kayleen

I LOVE mehndi parties and Erum & Aman's was no different. It feels so close and intimate as friends and family come together to prepare for the weekend celebrations. And who doesn't love seeing the groom get attacked with eggs and ketchup? The eggs are for fertility, mind you.

I'm not someone who wins things. For real. I spent most of my childhood licking stamps and submitting myself to random competitions. The only thing I ever won was a year supply of Herbal Essence hair products. Sounds cool, you may say? Well, yeah, until you realize it makes your hair greasier than Pauly D's pillow. Anyway, I stray from my point. I had a nice surprise in my inbox after lunch today saying that my photos had been chosen in the 48-hour raw photo contest by Totally Rad Actions! They are releasing their brand spankin' new presets for Lightroom tomorrow and were looking for raw photos to show off their new magic.  Out of 135 people who submitted, three of my favorite images were chosen! Check out the images below (with a few of my favorite presets in action) and check out the new actions here.

Seriously, I'm pumped!!

February is a new month for me. A month to stretch myself as an artist. Do something different. Shoot for myself and be myself.

As many of you know (and have previously seen on my blog), experimental shoots usually have something to do with my cousin Ann. I don't know what I would do without her. She listens to me babble about different ideas and her answer is always the same, "of course." This time was no different. I said I have ALWAYS wanted to do a photoshoot in a parking garage at sunset and Ann's answer was, "of course." So here you have it. A little something different from my normal style and I am kind of digging it. Oh and did I mention my cousin just launched her new etsy shop?? She was kind enough to preview some up and coming headbands in our shoot.

This is for all of you who say I don't show my face enough on this blog. I can't help it, it makes me feel naked to stare at a pic of me on my blog!! This was taken by none other than my cousin.
