This horse shows up more than a few times in my work because he deserves to. He was not as wild as advertised and in fact, turned out to be a pretty forward cuddler. I would consider him one of my best friends, despite the brevity of our encounter.
This day, the day I brought this dog home was the Best Day of My Life. If someone told you the dog is licking happy tears off of my cheek in this photo, I would definitely deny it, but I would be a liar.
Hello! I'm Jules, sometimes Julianna, but usually Jules these days.
I attended Colorado State University hell-bent on studying veterinary medicine and animal behavior and then I changed my mind and decided to be a park ranger and then I changed my mind again and became a good-for-nothing art major. I studied both darkroom and digital arts and graduated with a B.A. in Art Photography in 2013, so now I take pictures.
I’m going back to finish what I started in wildlife biology, so I’m working on this blog to exercise my brain a bit before I dive back in.
For five magical summers, I was the camp photographer and assistant program director for Colvig Silver Camps in Durango, Colorado where I lived in a little rustic cabin and hunted for pictures of amazing kids and the fantastic things they were getting up to. Additional duties included falling in large holes and playing in muddy creeks and wrangling unruly horses and throwing dangerous tomahawks.
These days I spend my 9-5 wo-managing a pet salon and retail store where I meet a lot of really great dogs, all of them photogenic. I have a border collie-ish pup called Camper who is a bit greyhound and a bit coyote too. She has a very serious full-time job keeping an eye on rabbits and squirrels.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I mean it!
