JULIA BOGGIO<br />
Boggio Studios is one of the most widely recognised luxury portrait photography<br />
brands in London, and they see many hundreds of clients every year from<br />
London and across the world.<br />
Julia established the studio in 2005, and the aim then as it still is today - was to<br />
create a unique photography studio that would enable everyone to enjoy the<br />
sort of high-end fashion shoot experience normally associated with style<br />
magazines such as Vogue and Vanity Fair.<br />
Julia worked in advertising and marketing for 10 years before she switched<br />
careers to photography. She started out as a wedding photographer and, having<br />
worked in this area for many years, she sought a change and wanted to start<br />
working with her husband:<br />
“We crunched the numbers and decided to open a family portrait studio. We<br />
also wanted to start a family of our own, so it really felt like the right decision.”<br />
She’s since created a successful business creating stunning images of families.<br />
Her years in the industry have given her a wealth of experience, something she’s<br />
keen to pass onto the next generation of photographers:<br />
“I believe that I have a lot to offer the photographic industry as far as experience<br />
and knowledge goes and I feel ready to give back to it. I’ve learned so much from<br />
other mentors over the years; I am now at the stage in the lifecycle of my<br />
business and life to impart my wisdom.”<br />
“Relationship marketing is the foundation of my business”

get the mix just right and then season to taste.<br />
