Julia Xanthos Liddy Photo & Video Studio

We just had our family photo session this week with Julia. She was so wonderful and our son really took to her. She has really great energy and was also very professional. Super talented; we are so pleased with the results. The photos came out beautifully. Will absolutely work with Julia again!

Julia was wonderful to work with from start to finish. She helped us choose the perfect location and timing, and worked so effortlessly with both my high school son and my 4th grade daughter. She made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed, which made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. The photos we received were absolutely beautiful — the sunset light and fall foliage were captured perfectly. Julia was also incredibly easy to work with, professional, and very quick, and we received our photos sooner than expected. I truly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who is talented, thoughtful, and a pleasure to work with!

We always have a wonderful experience with Julia for our family and holiday photo sessions! From start to finish, everything is relaxed and fun. Julia is amazing with the kids, super patient, and knew exactly how to capture genuine smiles and beautiful moments. The photos turned out absolutely stunning and are something we’ll treasure forever. Highly recommend!

Our experience with Julia was amazing from start to finish. She's a talented professional who offers a very reasonable rate for her time and work. We loved our photos!

Julia is an absolute gem of a person and a skilled photographer. I first worked with Julia in 2017/2018 for my sons then one-year Photoshoot and I was thrilled with the photos. More over, Julia just has this magic ability to make everyone feel comfortable and like she’s apart of the family right away, making for more authentic and beautiful photos. More recently, my little girls one year was coming up and I had no doubts who we wanted for the Photoshoot. Once again, Julia’s work speak for itself. Don’t hesitate to reach out for any photos for any occasion, they will come out beautiful.

I have been working with Julia for close to a decade. From outdoor sessions to her local pop-ups to her very own studio in Bay Ridge. We have truly had a magical time at every photoshoot with Julia. She is so sweet, so professional and so easy to work with. Her attention to detail is impeccable. I can’t wait for our next session together!

Julia created unimaginable Christmas photos this past December with my 5 year old son that I didn't know were possible. My son is high sensory and VERY active, and although I mentioned these challenges to Julia beforehand, she was un-phased and assured me, that she would get "the shot." My son was antsy at first, hesitant, and unsure - especially about the flash of the camera - and Julia patiently showed him her camera and allowed him to move around safely and act as himself. He even embraced her at one point that made me so overcome with emotion, that I knew we were in absolutely good hands. She scheduled no other patrons after us for a time to ensure the extra timing, and told me that not only did she get "the shot", she got MANY amazing shots that just FLOORED me. I HIGHLY recommend any parents with children that have special needs to give Julia a shout-out! My son even asked afterwards if we were coming back next week to see Julia - words can't describe how impactful his level of comfort was with her. 11/10 and worth every penny!
