Reviews of Julien Photography (Photo Studio)

GameToThrill Eric

Couldn't have been happier with the Juliens. They were friendly and effecient, provided great direction to us, and the end results were amazing. Highly recommend them!

Kelbree Dunham

What can we say about the Julien Photography! On our wedding day, they took what was already going to be an amazing experience for both of us and made it even better (if that's even possible)!! Steve and Courtney were with us from the very beginning of the day and stayed right to the bitter end - going above and beyond the time we expected them to put in. On top of that, and probably even more importantly, our photos were absolutely stunning and captured the feel and emotion of our day perfectly. You will not be let down by the Julien's - two photographers for the price of one, two artists who are brilliant at what they do, two amazing people who you'd be lucky to spend the day with!!

Could not have wished for better wedding photographers! We got married on the first hot day of the year and they made sure we were hydrated and happy! All my guests were coming up and saying how they couldn't get over how awesome our photographers were ????

The Wifey

My husband and I were lucky enough to have Steve and Courtney as neighbours before they were our wedding photographers. They were actually 2 of the first people to know we were engaged when we got back from holidays and asked them to be our photographers immediately. A dynamic duo and special partnership is what you will get with these two. Steve is silly and easy going and makes you feel relaxed while Courtney looks for those special moments, buzzing around like a bee and keeps everyone on task. Their professionalism and passion for their job makes it easy to see they wouldn't want to be doing anything else. I have been in 2 weddings that Steve and Courtney have photographed and both times it was just as fun to watch them work, once from a bride's perspective and once from part of the wedding party. I would hire them for our wedding again in a heartbeat and look forward to enjoying their beautiful photographs of our wedding for the rest of our lives!

Candice McKinnon

AMAZING!!! Courtney is the only one who has ever made me feel comfortable in front of a camera. Her and Steve did my maternity, engagement, and wedding photos and they are so beautiful and truly capture those special moments perfectly. As someone who is NOT photogenic..... they made me laugh, feel at ease and knew exactly how to get me to pose to get the great shots. Courtney's creativity combined with Steve's technical shots are the perfect marriage for the perfect photos. NO ONE ELSE would do an action belly slide to get the best angle of your guests on the dance floor......but COURTNEY WOULD! SO much love for these two :)

Jessica Abel

Courtenay & Steve are fantastic photographers, they have great intuition and insight that captured the essence of our product line. Their wonderful personal dynamic and witty sense of humor made our shoot a blast, at the same time creating a superior end result for our business.

Chantal Brooke

Personable, Professional Perfection! I cannot say enough good things about Steve and Courtney. Our wedding photos are beyond expectations. The entire process from getting quotes on cost, what types of photos we would like to have to meeting in person to the big day they were both incredible communicators and made everyone feel comfortable and calm. They came up with the most interesting and thoughtful compositions and made the two of us extremely camera shy bride and grooms feel like we were on the set of a bridal magazine shoot. They are so genuinely friendly and caring while making sure to get all the shots requested. 5 stars is not enough and I am eternally grateful they were available for the wedding. 100% the best decision I have ever made. <3

Bryan Chapman

The Juliens were hands down the best photographers! We were so impressed! They are really creative, and after sitting down with them the first meet they got the full picture of what we wanted and made it happen! They made the whole experience stress free and fun for us! I highly recommend them. Not to mention, they become instant friends, so prepare to take on two awesome friends!

Al Renke

Amazing quality! The Juliens have a tremendous eye for detail and produce breath-taking photographs. Their colourful and heartfelt style is just perfect for weddings. Having double coverage with two high-end photographers who know how to set up shots, give direction, and capture spontaneous moments along with their package deals, slideshows, and fully downloadable image sets makes for a valuable package. Highly recommended.

Lisa Therrien

The Juliens are an amazing team. They're hilarious and make you feel so comfortable. Their photos are UNREAL! They capture some amazing moments. We'd highly recommend them!

Danya Ouellette

From start to finish the Juliens were amazing. First and foremost were the pics, which we love. They exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t be happier. We had an elopement wedding with just our kids, sitter and makeup artist. Because of this we spent a huge portion of our time with Courtney and Steve. The energy they brought was great and really made our day extra special. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for clean, crisp, timeless wedding pics. Thanks Steve and Courtney!!♥️

Elise B

Steve and Courtney are the best photographers we have ever worked with! They made us feel comfortable and heard throughout the entire process. They listened to what wanted for our special day and went above and beyond to make that happen. On the day of they were so great and prepared (especially with snacks to help us get through the day) for everything! It really touched us when they stayed a little longer (even though we told them they didn't have to!) on our wedding day to capture a special moment at our reception. They were able to get one of our favourite photos from the wedding by doing that! Beyond this, their photos are GREAT and we look at them so often. You'll be making the best decision for your wedding day by booking with Julien Photography!

Cher Rowe

Words cannot describe how incredible these two are! I met this wonderful couple through a friend while attending a concert in Vancouver and had an instant connection. Since then, I have had the pleasure of working with them while co-ordinating a wedding, being a part of a bridal party in a wedding they were hired for, and through my own personal photo sessions with them. Professionalism, Creativity, Efficiency, Enthusiasm, and Worth are all words I would choose to describe them, and that is just the tip of the ice burg. I have recommended Steve and Courtney to all of my friends and family when looking for a photographer, and all have chosen to work with them after seeing what they provide. I am lucky to have been on both the client side and the vendor side, and found it to be such a smooth process. Courtney is great at providing a fun and comfortable atmosphere when doing intimate shoots, and worked well with me on posing and getting me into my comfort zone. When it comes to working with them during weddings, the benefit of having two photographers on the day of is great, and their eye for design is impeccable. I can honestly say, without a doubt, that I will be hiring these two for my wedding in the future, and would whole-heartedly express anyone looking for breathtakingly beautiful and unique photos, to do the same, you won't be sorry! EDIT: We just got married on August 1st, 2021 and had the absolute pleasure of working with Courtenay and Steve for our engagement photos and wedding as hoped. We received our teaser photos today - they are STUNNING. Our family can't stop talking about how beautifully they turned out and how much of a pleasure Courtenay and Steve were to work with. The Juliens arrive on time, fully prepared, and are on point throughout the entire day without a hitch. They are fun, stress-free, comfortable, energetic, and incredibly professional. Communication prior to the wedding was top notch, and has stayed as such even after the wedding with what we are to expect next. These two are WELL WORTH the money and bring infinite amount of value to your wedding day memories. You will not second guess your decision to go with this couple!! I highly suggest going for the same day edit, and extending the timeline to include golden hour photos if possible!

Kasey Bayne

The Juliens were AMAZING, and I am so glad we worked with them for our Quadra Island wedding. Neither of us are very comfortable in front of the camera, but Steve and Courtney made us feel comfortable, and got some amazing shots! They even managed to keep our crazy families under control :) Easy to work with, and memories we'll keep forever! Thank you both!!

Kate Preston

These 2 are nothing short of incredible. Not only did they give us amazing photos will we always treasure, but we fell in love with them at the same time. They really went WAY above and beyond and made our special day magical

Olivia Cross

Courtney and Steve are professional, a ton of fun to work with and super talented at what they do! Their outgoing, hilarious personalities allow couples to feel comfortable and relax so they can capture that perfect moment! I would recommend them over and over again to my clients!

Melanie Sora

Courtney & Steve were such a joy to work with. They made our photo sessions so much fun (this coming from two people who really hate having their photos taken). It was such a wonderful experience and the photos are just amazing. They exceeded any expectations we had and we are forever grateful to them for making our day all that more special. They are two beautiful souls who will add some love and laughter to your event and I highly recommend them.

Hayden Lister

They provided excellent, personalized service. Couldn't ask for better wedding photographers!

Bria Sharkey

Going into my wedding I knew 1 thing... the pictures would be all I would have to remember the day by (other than my amazing husband ???? ). I spent a lot of time researching photogrphers and even put out feelers on Facebook to see who people would recommend. Over and over again the Julien's kept getting recommended. My husband and I booked a meeting with them and it felt like we were having coffee with old friends so I booked them right away! Leading up to the wedding we had our engagement photos with the Juliens and they made the experience so easy and recommended great spots for what I was looking for. They also set up 3 meetings before the wedding to go over so many details that I would not have even thought of from who would be in what family pictures, the orders they would be taken in, the day's timeline, and every other little detail in between. They were extremely thorough and always made us feel calm about the whole thing. The day of Steve went to hang out with the boys and Courtney came and took pictures with us girls. We had the best time, they were on time, proficient, and SO much fun to have around. I got all of the shots I wanted! DUring the wedding they seemed invisible but the pictures we received seemed like they were EVERYWHERE!! They were both dressed perfect for the hot summer day, profesional but still semi-formal. They made the family pictures go very smooth and very quick. During the reception, again, they were everywhere but out of sight (I don't know how they do that!). They got pictures of all the details of my reception and some amazing candid shots! Courtney even joined the dance circle and busted out the worm ???? The beauty of having 2 photographers? They get every angle and they make set up time for lighting, etc VERY fast. We ended up with over 800 professionally edited pictures and every single one is AMAZING. I cannot recommend the Julien's enough!! If you want a seamless, effortless day full of amazing memories caught on camera, you need the Juliens!!

Kim Lister

These two make an awesome photography team! Personable and professional, they add to your big day! They're easygoing and fun and make you feel super comfortable while getting your picture taken. They're very creative and capture beautiful moments that you don't even know are happening at the time. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs photographers!

Kirsten Jamont

Having the Julien's as our photographers was the second best choice I made about our wedding; the first is my husband, because he might read this. They capture amazing shots and made it so much fun! I would recommend them for anyone's special day. It's amazing how creative they are and both in very different ways in the angles they like to shoot.

Michelle Chan

We had a fantastic time working with Courtney and Steve! All our family members later told us how professional and friendly our photographers were and we can't help but completely agree! Courtney and Steve were extremely flexible during our hectic day and we were so grateful to have such wonderful photographers to work with. I would highly recommend working with Julien Photography.

Steve Blunt

No more energy than Courtney and no more technical than Steve!! The perfect pair for the perfect shot!!!! You can't get a better duo to do your family and wedding photography!! And did I mention pure entertainment from the both of them???? my engagement wedding photos are amazing and I look at them all the time as it was all captured I every moment ! Highly recommended by all they have dealt with including me!! You won't be disappointed so please call them and find out for yourself????

Hannah Collette

Having Steve and Courtney as our wedding photographers was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. They are such talented, fun, wonderful individuals you will be so happy you chose them to follow you around all day ;) Really though, we had a big wedding with lots of family and Courtney and Steve were so great. Easy going and relaxed but organized and on target the whole time! We got the most incredible pictures to remember both our engagement and our big day. Steve and Courtney are so easy to work with, you feel like instant friends! We also got a video of our wedding with them and let me tell you that was the best decision we ever made. It is the most beautiful, emotional, intimate way to capture your wedding and the Julien's did it perfectly. Everything about our experience with the Julien's was fantastic, you will be so happy you booked with them.

Jenna Fantillo

Steve and Courtney are absolutely AMAZING to work with. They are so easy to talk to and Work For and make the whole experience enjoyable! Book them! You will not be disappointed!

Kylie Clyne

Amazing and comfortable experience. Steve and Courtney worked with us in a way that made us so comfortable during our Engagement photo shoot. They had all the equipment to make the lighting and the scenery look perfect. Also super helpful in demonstrating poses and what looks best in photos! Would highly recommend and will be using them again in the future!

Kama Money

Steve and Courtney are so creative, professional and HILARIOUS! We were so honoured and excited to have them capture our big day and we’re true professionals in their lighting, setting up shots, and making us all f el comfortable and relaxed throughout th entire process. We got some absolutely stunning candid and creative shots for us to remember our big day together. I haven’t seen other photographers with such a high level of skill before and have been bombarded with compliments about our unique and timeless wedding photos ???????? We’d highly recommend Steve and Courtney to friends and family.

Rozlan Thompson

Steve & Courtney are simply fantastic to work with. The quality of their work is exceptional and you are sure to love your final product. However, the experience you will have working with them is worth 5+ stars alone. Their dynamic is amazing along with their ability to make their clients feel comfortable and look great. The Julien's are professional, personable and perfectly matched for each other as well as their profession!

Niki Lopez

Courtney and Steve are not only amazing photographers, but also amazing people!. We have know them for a couple years as they also photographed my best friends wedding in 2013. When my husband and I got engaged in 2015 the very first decision we made was, no matter what, the Juliens would be photographing our wedding. They made the scheduling and planning so easy, and the wedding day so stress free and fun! We 100% trusted that they would go above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience and photos possible, and they did not disappoint! -The Lopez-is :)

Amanda Smith

I don't think there is anything the Juliens would not do for their clients. They are always looking for new and exciting opportunities. For my husband and I it was a canoeing engagement shoot and a wedding in Ucluelet. This couple make the perfect team as they can be goofy to liven things up or perfectly professional as well. They felt like guests at the wedding because we got to know them so well in such a short amount of time! I could go on and on!

Andrea Leclerc

We had the pleasure of having Courtney and Steve as our wedding photographers. Our pictures turned out absolutely stunning. Not only were they talented and professional, but they were so fun! They met with us multiple times before the wedding, and really got to know my husband and I. I would absolutely recommend them!!

Taylor Hackett

These two are incredible! They help make our day unbelievably special. They are so organized, we didn't have to do a thing other than 'smile' (not that that was hard to do on our amazing day). Throughout the entire process they made our lives so easy and made us feel so special. They are true born professionals of their industry!

Chantalle Alfaro

I recommend Julien Photography to everyone - do yourself a favour, and book them for your big day! They are the most amazing photographers: extremely professional and the sweetest couple to be around on top of that! They made our Wedding day incredible - not only were our photos stunning, but they also went above and beyond in every way to make sure our day was fun, relaxing and memorable! The Julien's are the best!

Lindsay Hoetzel

Unreal photos. Wouldn't ask for anything else :)

Mike Macleod

They made our wedding amazing, not just by the amazing photos they took, but by being some of the nicest people we could have had help make our wedding great! They take time to get to know you and create a friendship that will last forever as they were a huge part of your wedding! Thank you for the amazing pictures! Couldn't have asked for more!

Carly Whitmore

Courtney and Steve were an easy choice for our wedding photography. Their professionalism combined with their hilarious sense of humour made my husband and I feel comfortable from the first moment we met them. We felt immediately at ease during our engagement session (highly recommend) and most importantly, on our wedding day!

Jillian K

All I can say is - LOOK NO FURTHER. You have found the perfect photographers to capture your PERFECT wedding day! Call them, book them - right now! You will probably end up being friends with them after. I booked Julien photography over a year in advance and at the time I was impressed with their website, with their fast and efficient response times, and just their overall fun vibe. I had no idea at that moment what a phenomenal choice I was making! A couple of things that really stood out - other than the obvious ones of being easy to get ahold of, on time for everything, and taking amazing photos. 1. If you have a groom who hates the idea of photos you are in the right place! My now husband spent the whole year leading up to the wedding ridiculing me for booking a photographer to take stupid corny wedding photos. It only took about 30 seconds after meeting Courtney and Steve for him to change his tune completely. He ended up having a blast, and even loves the photos! 2. They are actually super fun wedding guests that will make your other guests have way more fun 3. They are hilarious and should have a side career as comedians 4. They are super prepared for all sorts of ridiculous situations that you can't even anticipate. They fixed a broken strap on my dress, leant me slippers when my feet were sore, gave me an advil when my back started hurting, had an umbrella when a sunshower surprised us and even had granola bars to feed hangry bridesmaids. How would I even have survived without them? If weddings weren't supposed to be a once in a lifetime type thing, I would go back to the Julien's every year. ;) Since they are - I'll probably go back for Boudoir shots! Thanks for everything you two!

Samantha Bilson

We can't say enough great things about The Julien's.! We were so happy to find a photography team that was easy to work with and made taking photos fun. We had a winter wedding planned and were attracted to the vibrant color in their photos. Steve and Courtney did both our wedding and engagement photos and made both experiences great. Not only do they take amazing photos, they are fantastic to work with. They were the life of the party at our wedding, wrangled our family with ease for formal shots, came up with alternative locations when our wedding venue wouldn't work, and made us feel at ease and comfortable through the whole process. When we look at our photos we are overwhelmed by the moments they captured- from the first moments seeing each other that day, our emotions during the ceremony, and our pure joy and happiness throughout- they caught them all!

MINDY TOOMBS

The Julien's were a special part of our wedding day, we were truly blessed to of found them. Our wedding pictures look like they could be in a magazine and we will treasure them always.

Zack Jones

The Julien's made our special day simply fantastic! They made us feel at ease the entire day capturing the moments we will cherish for a lifetime! We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for first class photographers - you will not be disappointed!

Rebecca Sangster-Kelly

The Juliens shot our wedding in 2014 and I finally got around to sorting out our wedding album last week, but hey, it was a great trip down memory lane. They captured the excitement and emotion of our day and worked with our request to film the ceremony, edited down to 20 min to show case all the meaningful moments. Selecting the best photographers within our budget was a priority for me and, after the research and shortlisting, I'm still very pleased we chose them, and that they agreed to be part of our special day :)

Tanya Oslie

We met Steve and Courtney at a wedding expo before our wedding and immediately loved them. They are such an amazing couple who strive to give you exactly what you envision for your photos. They have been our photographers for engagement, wedding and family photos and we have been extremely happy with all of them. These two are so much more than just photographers; they are an exceptional team and they really consider you and everything you want!

Madison Faulkner

I love this couple! They worked my wedding June 20th 2020 which happened to be there anniversary ???? We had so much fun and they we exactly what we were looking for! So many Beautiful shot! And they just went with the flow with all of our ideas ???? and made everything perfect! I also loved how they would pose together to help us understand exactly what looks best ???? We were so blessed to have you two on our special day!! If you want high quality, great 2 team pricing, amazing team work and a lot of laughs go with Julian Photography!! You won’t regret it!!

Danyka Cooke

If you're looking for wedding photographers, your search has ended! We are so thankful we had Steve and Courtney on our wedding day! They are amazing, organized and really kept the day running smooth all around! They made sure everyone was where they needed to be for photos when they needed to be and it went perfectly! I love that Steve goes with the gentlemen and Courtney goes with the ladies prior to the actual ceremony so both the bride and groom can see the pre game through photos. You spend all this time planning a wedding and in one day it's all over, your photos are so so important and Steve and Courtney truly capture every special moment! ????

Rick Friesen

The Julien's have become life long friends, they are incredibly talented and a welcome ray of sunshine on a snowy day...just like our wedding. They braved the elements and created stunning images for us that remind us of the fun we all had.

Jaime Blacklock

So dedicated to getting the perfect shot! And it always pays off. Our family photos always come out shockingly AMAZING given that i have 2 busy young kids and a husband that likes to talk at all the wrong times! ????

Jeff Maynard

Julien photography are the best photographers! I already recommended them to my friends and they loved them too! I will always recommend them to anyone needing any type of photographers for any type of occasion! You can't beat this husband and wife duo! Thanks Steve & Courtney!

Ray and Tanisha

We cannot say enough good things about working with Courtney and Steve! From the moment we were engaged, I dreamed of having them as our photographers based on the work of theirs I saw online. I was worried we wouldn't be able to book them since we were only engaged for a few months, but I think COVID was on our side because they were available for our Saturday date in the spring. From our very first email interaction, their sense of humor and passion was evident and this was confirmed in our first Zoom meeting with Courtney. They were very reasonable, willing to accommodate our budget, and always quick to respond to questions and reassure me as the bride when I had my moments of anxiety due to the constantly changing health orders/restrictions. Working with them the day of was fun, easy and relaxing. They make such a great team, had us laughing throughout and there were no moments where we were left wondering what we should be doing or what the plan was. Courtney and Steve are full of great suggestions for locations and know how to capture stunning portrait shots as well as those special candid moments. After the wedding day, they were quick to send us some teaser pictures and also put more on their blog which we were so excited about. Again, we could go on and on about how wonderful they are. We absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for an easy going and fun experience and some killer photos!

Christine Kennedy

The Julien’s are fabulous photographers!! They made the whole day incredible!! My husband is not a fan of getting his picture taken and they made him so comfortable he said he would do it again!! Love these guys! They are the absolute best!!

Danielle L

Adam and I would like to start by saying, Steve and Courtney are the photography team you need on your wedding day! They are the complete package. Not only are they amazing people, but unbelievably talented! They kept us laughing throughout the morning and day, which really helped take the nerves away. I've loved their work for many years and it was a dream come true to have them capture our special day back in June. We are obsessed with our photos! Much love!

Matt Vissers

The idea of hiring someone to photograph my wife and I's wedding filled me with a level of dread I usually reserve for answering calls from unknown numbers. Needless to say when we arranged to meet with Courtney and Steve I was expecting to say "Be our photographers, please!" and leave. Instead, we ended up talking for a good hour and a half. It was like a coffee with old friends! Our experience throughout the planning and actual photoshoots was totally fun and apart from a wasp sting to the side of my head, completely painless! They are true professionals but are always willing to have a lot of fun in the process. Oh and they also take amazing pictures! Between us and our extended family, the Juliens have photographed 7 events and we plan on having them out for many more! I can't imagine having anyone else take pictures for us. They are like family now...but the type of family that you enjoy seeing! I would absolutely recommend anyone thinking about hiring them to do it.

Samantha Vanderdonck

Our experience with Courtney and Steve was incredible from the very first meeting. They are both professional, talented photographers with great energy and made us so comfortable during our photos. Overall they were amazing to work with. We are so happy with the photos from our wedding, the quality and composition exceeded our expectations!

Kaitlin Neave

Steve and Courtney were wonderful photographers! They were very professional and funny too! I was getting bitten by mosquitoes and they gave me some after bite which helped. They had snacks for us and made sure that we were taken care of all day. The photos turned out amazing and we are so happy with how everything turned out. The guests also loved them and the night shots they took were great. Their banter back and forth made it amusing for us and the love they have for each other and their passion for photography shows through in their work.

Kathleen Mackay

Well from the moment we met the Juliens we felt like they were family! We had an amazing engagement photo shoot at Mount Washington just after Christmas. The day was exactly what we needed!! They take the time to get to know you and your partner and it really is a fun date with the Juliens:) Courtney made muffins to snack on and Steve had hot paws at the ready because oh man was it cold! Totally worth IT!!! They honestly make you look and feel like super models:) Now, on to our big day! They're both so creative, talented and kind! They're business in the front and all party in the back???? They are able to catch little moments that you don't have a chance to see until they send you a photo slide show and trust me you will cry!!! They're constantly thinking about what you and your partner need, want or might have forgotten! Honestly, I could go on and on! Our entire family was impressed with their artistic abilities and anyone I know who is engaged or are think about getting married I instantly recommend the Juliens! Please please please use them! You will love the way they capture your special day!

Our first impression of Steve and Courtney was from their video on their website. This video perfectly depicts how fun and energetic they are. Because my husband and I live in Alberta we arranged a Skype date to meet them for the first time and it was amazing. We could have chatted for hours. Throughout the planning process they were extremely helpful even offering to help taste test cake for us. On the day of our wedding Steve and Courtney were extremely helpful, professional and even fed me (the bride) to keep me from passing out. They were imaginative with posing and choosing locations and stood on the beach in Jaunary for hours with us to get the perfect shots. Steve even gave me his jacket to keep me from freezing. They kept to their schedule, to a tee, and drove us back to our reception as the wedding party had taken our cars already. As a busy bride at our reception they stayed beyond their scheduled departure to ensure we could sneak away for a beautiful night shoot. Over all the Julien's were amazing to deal with, punctual, kind and fun. We would absolutely, and have, recommended them to anyone. The photos speak for them, absolutely stunning. Thank you Steve and Courtney for being such an important and special part of our wonderful day. M & B Griffin

Kevin Ngo

We are so lucky to have found Steve and Courtney and had them as our engagement and wedding photographers. The photos that they take are spectacular, and award winning. They've been more than just photographers for us. During our wedding planning, they were essentially wedding advisors for us. But they've also become our friends. Best of all though, they're a ton of fun. When they are shooting us, time flies. Steve and Courtney will end up spending 3 hours taking amazing photos of us and it will only feel like we were out for an hour. They are very effective and communicating exactly how they want to position us, for every photo. They've developed a vocabulary for each of the poses and positions (hollywood walk, temple kiss, etc.), that ensures stunning photos. We'll miss them not only as our photographers, but also as our friends. Thank you Julien's for capturing special moments that we would have never even imagined.

Jennifer Fletcher

What a super amazing team to capture our wedding day! Both Courtney and Steve have an amazing way with their cameras catching such great photos. They make it seem effortless being in front of the camera. I highly recommend their night shots and speed edit slideshow, we knew they would do amazing things but blew us away with their photos. Thanks guys for being part of our special day!

Julia Friesen

Love these two. I wish I could get married each year because of the amazing work that they do. Not only are they super keen photographers and are extremely talented in what they do, they are also a total hoot to be around. Love them both inside and out and all around.

Phil&Daylene Jones

Steve and Courtney did a fantastic job of photographing and videoing our wedding last summer and engagement photo shoot the summer before. They and their team were very professional and organized and the images/video they captured turned out better than I expected. They were very accommodating with all of our requests and made the entire experience pain free. We couldn't have asked for anything more!

Claire L

The Julien's are the wedding photographers to have. No question! I first came across Courtney and Steve at a local wedding fair. They were swarmed by many brides to be. I looked through their portfolio and loved what I saw and couldn't wait to get home and show my fiancé. My now husband and I followed them on Facebook watching their incredible work unfold. Once we set a date for our wedding, Courtney and Steve were the first to be contacted. Having two photographers was amazing as they caught different angles and moments simultaneously. The Julien's made our day so special. They made all of us continuously laugh, relax and just enjoy the day. They were part of our day just like close friends/family. The photos that they took left us breathless. We look through our albums and can say exactly what was going on in that moment captured by them. We have one of our pictures blown up on a wood plaque they did for us. We love everything about them and our photo.

Douglas McDonald

Steve and Courtney give off a friendly, welcoming vibe. On our wedding day there was no awkward energy between the photographers and bridal party. Despite the extremely cold temperatures on the waterfront, they were positive and committed until we had captured the perfect shots. With their diverse amount of wedding experience, they were also very helpful with suggestions when we were stumped on an area of wedding planning. It was nice having new friends capture our beautiful day.

Corinne Sharkey

My daughter and her husband chose Steve and Courtney Julien as their photographers for their wedding in September....and what a fabulous experience it was! When I arrived at the hotel the morning of the wedding it was party central! There was laughing, talking, music, hair and makeup going on, and Courtney right amoungst it all...quietly snapping the most beautiful pics of the most "special moments!" (She bends and twists like a pretzel to get "just the right shot!") At the same time, Steve was with the men having a blast taking pics of them getting ready! During the ceremony they were everywhere taking the most stunning photos!! And the reception...WOW!! I've never seen such fun, candid pics !! They captured the happiness and love that everyone in the room felt for this beautiful couple !! What a fantastic experience it was to have them take the photos of my daughter and her husband and all those who are most precious to them on their wedding day! Five out of five stars just doesn't seem enough for this extremely talented husband and wife team! I would HIGHLY recommend them !!! (And can't wait to use them again!) Thank you sooooo much Steve and Courtney!!!

Jann Agovida

Courtney and Steve were a pleasure to work with from the start! They are an amazing team and they make you feel so comfortable and at ease during what can be a sometimes stressful time, like planning a wedding! Aside from being great photographers they are such wonderful and kind people! Thanks for everything C&S! From M&J

Micky Jackson

Anybody can take a photo but Capturing a Memory takes a life time of practice, Steve & Courtney have perfected this Craft. It was an absolute honour to work with this amazing couple they are both so personable and passionate which are skills that can't be taught.

I would recommend Courtney and Steve to anyone looking for fun energetic and a professional couple to capture their special day. They captured our wedding day like I never imagined and I can’t express how Thamkful I am to them!

I have done 4 photo session with the Juliens and every time it has been great! They make the session fun. I don't like having my picture taken but with the Juliens I enjoy it. Having both of them take pictures is great because you get two angles of the entire event, also they both have their own specialists when it comes to posed pictures. In the end you get a great variety of expertly captured photos that you will enjoy for a life time.

There are no words to describe the infectious, positive energy of the Juliens! After meeting several photographers at a busy bridal expo, Steve and Courtney stood out leaps and bounds above the rest - they took the time to discuss our wedding vision and had an impressive portfolio of stunning wedding photos. Their professionalism is on point - prompt with responses, creative, open to recreating pinterest suggestions and encouraging with loosening up in front of the camera! Since our wedding, we have kept in touch and done family mini sessions - Always an amazing experience! Steve and Courtney are committed to capturing beautiful lifetime memories and we are so thankful to have had them play such a memorable role in our wedding.

We have done two family photoshoots with Julien Photography so far and have been thoroughly impressed! Our young daughter had a blast during the sessions. The second photoshoot also involved some gorgeous maternity shots which I absolutely treasure. Steve and Courtney are wonderful to work with and captured beautiful memories for us. Highly recommended!

My husband and I are so thrilled with how our photos turned out! Choosing the right photographer for our wedding was so important, and when we found the Juliens, I knew we had to book them. They were super fun to be around, and brought so many creative ideas to the table so that we didn't have to worry about anything. I absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for amazing photos!

The Juliens are by far the most amazing photographers! They really made our wedding day and engagement special. Not only did they take fantastic pics, but they made sure we stuck to the timeline of our wedding so that we could get all the photos that we wanted, and I'm so grateful for that. They really go above and beyond to make your day special and it's more than just wedding photos. I was so impressed with how beautiful our photos turned out. Not to mention we had an absolute BLAST hanging out with them anytime we were with them, and they got some awesome shots of our guests having fun! I would recommend the Juliens hands down to anyone looking for a photographer. I mean a husband and wife duo...AWESOME! I now consider them great friends of ours!

Great experience from the first communication. Great team to work with, personable and professional. Photos turned out amazing and colour , clarity was phenomenal. We were surprised how fast they had the gallery available post shoot and the final product available for us. Would definitely use them again!

Amber Mancuso

We used the Julien's for our wedding and our photos are AMAZING! They were so excitable, organized, friendly and responsive leading up to our wedding day. They met with us multiple times and were always able to answer our questions. There attitude, skills and professionalism shined through on our day!

Leanne Bartlett

I would highly recommend Julien Photography to anyone looking for a wedding photographer on Vancouver Island! My husband and I used them for our wedding at Tigh-Na-Mara Resort and could not have been happier! Our experience right from the initial communication to the final delivery of our image gallery exceeded our expectations. The photos turned out incredible and we now have so many stunning images to look at. The best part is that Courtney and Steve were fun to hang out with and made us feel comfortable the entire time. Our guests are still raving about how good our photographers were (and we are too)! I can't recommend these two enough and have no doubt that we will be choosing them the next time we need a photographer.

Cecilia Joss

Most amazing photographers! We got the engagement and wedding package and it was worth every penny for the memories! Our wedding was in Vegas and they were able to capture everything so that we can remember the entire day! Thank you :) Love Cecilia and Kyle

I live in Australia and got married in Nanaimo. I chose the Juliens from a recommendation and was absolutely blown away by their work! Not only did the Juliens help with the organization and planning of the wedding day they recommended amazing other vendors for the day. My husband and I raved about how amazing the Juliens were on our wedding day and we hadnt even seen the photos yet! When i recieved the photos i was blown away and speechless. They not only captured the love my husband and i have for each other but just how important family and friends are to us. I would give these guys a 10 star review if i could!!! They are absolutly amazing!!!

Christina Infanti

Courtenay and Steve were amazing to work with. It was awesome having two photographers, capturing each moment of our special day. They were easy to work with and funny. From getting ready photos, to dancing up a storm on the dance floor, they captured all the important moments including all the fine details.

Emily Kane

The Julien's were the photographers for our wedding. We found them to be very personable and professional. They definitely have attention to detail which we very much appreciated. Our photos turned out beautifully and we couldn't be happier with the memories to look back on

Nicole S

Courtney and Steve are 2 of the most talented people I have had the pleasure of working with. They are fun, caring professionals that have a way of bringing out the best in everyone they work with. I can absolutely recommend their photography services with confidence to all my clients. If you are looking for photographers to capture life's most treasured moments, this is the team you need behind the camera!

Lisa-Marie Chai

Amazing! This funny, sweet yet sassy, creative duo gave us beautiful photos that captured the perfect memories of our engagement and of our wedding. When we look back at their photos we not only remember the moments but how we were feeling in those moments. They had us becoming comfortable in front of the camera in no time, gave us great direction and added so much more to an already special experience. Our guests loved them and we love them! Highly recommended : )

Finding a wedding photographer on the island is a little scary as there are so many out there, it's hard to choose! Luckily, a good friend of ours recommended the juliens, and we are so glad she did. From day one, any questions or concerns I had about not only photography, but wedding stuff in general, they were on it. They were so helpful with everything! Steve and courtney made our planning process and our wedding day a breeze. There's nothing better than knowing that you don't have to worry about a thing because your in such great hands. Their work is so beautiful. Our wedding photos and video are more amazing than we could have ever hoped for. We are so thankful that we have such great memories of our day to look back on because of you and your amazing team!

Laura Kalcsa

A great husband and wife team who love their clients - and work hard in the wedding industry as well!

Bryce Green

When my wife and I picked out our wedding package, it left out one important detail. It failed to mention that Courtney and Steve would be life long friends of ours from that day forward. We had previously tried to use another photographer and it didn't work out. We found the Juliens website and instantly fell in love with their work. You can see the amount of pride they have in their work, it shows in every photo. I could not be happier with the work they have done, the customer service and the enthusiasm. For anyone looking for a wedding photographer, I don't suggest you get one... Get two. Steve and Courtney are both two totally different style of photographers and shoot different material and different angles. This allows for very diverse photos from every angle imaginable, they won't miss a single part of your wedding. Not only do they shoot well on their own, they come together as an incredible team to accomplish breathtaking shots with amazing lighting. I will warn you though! Steve and Courtney will kick your ass. They were the FIRST people at the wedding and the absolute LAST to leave. They push you to your limits to make sure there are no shots left, no angles missed and you will thank them later. They were flexible, accommodating, realistic and extremely dedicated. I cannot think of a better team of photographers. I can't say enough about the amazing experience my wife and I have had with Courtney and Steve. If you are looking for wedding photos you will never forget and friends you will never lose, look no further. Hillory & Bryce.

Roberta Goodrick

Courtney and Steve ❤️... You truly outdid yourselves, as I had every confidence that you would! Thank you so much for capturing the very essence of our beautiful day... and for all the laughs Ed and I shared with you in the process. You ensured we not only had a blast, but also that everything we could possibly need was packed in your Mary Poppins bag... water, snacks, plastic mat for us to lounge on in the tide pools, beach towel.... didn't see wine, but dammit we never thought to ask!! ???? My very favourite memory Courtney, was you barefoot, in almost full side splits on the "quicksand".... resting forward on your elbows to capture the ripples of the sand in the foreground!! I'm sure you not only got the shot, but also benefitted from a great elbow exfoliation!!! ???????? Love you guys... you are THE BEST!!???????? Bobbie and Ed Comerford

Steve and Courtney are the best!

There are no words to describe the amazing talent of Julien photography. They not only capture the photo, but the emotion tied to it. Every picture they took was breathtaking and you felt you could not live without that photo. It was very evident in the way they interacted with our wedding party how much they love what they do. We got a video made theirs still not a week that goes by that we don't watch are amazing wedding video. I highly recommend this couple love love loved their work!

Edgar Alfaro

Don't look anywhere else! These two will not disappoint. And, you will leave with two awesome new friends. They are great people and make a fantastic team. One of the things that impressed me most was how well prepared they were. We had some very unpredictable weather on our wedding day. It went from sun, to rain, to sun again multiple times. This did not affect our wedding photos one bit thanks to our awesome photographers. They had a plan A,B,C... all the way through Z and the execution was seamless. They literally thought of EVERYTHING and it goes to show how professional they are.

Trish Kwiatkowski

If you are looking for amazing photos, look no further. Steve and Courtney are the most easy going, fun people to work with and they go above and beyond to make sure your day (and your pictures!) are a success! Our engagement and wedding pictures are stunning and we get compliments all the time on how well the photography was done. I would highly recommend these two!!!

Ryan Blunt

Courtney and Steve came to Vancouver to photograph our family. What a fantastic day. Our daughter loved the experience with them. The shoot was very easy going and we certainly weren't rushed. We ended up with amazing photos and even better memories.

Jackie Hickey

After months of searching for the best reviewed photographers on Vancouver Island, we found the Julien’s. Since we live in Vancouver, we weren’t able to meet them right away, so we scheduled a call. It was important for us to find someone who we felt comfortable standing in front of the camera with since neither of us feel very relaxed doing so. After our initial phone call, my husband and I were sure that the Julien’s would be the perfect photographers for us. They both have a special sense of calm and enthusiasm that really helped us loosen up, but also made us feel excited about being photographed. Not only do they have the perfect personalities for a wedding photographer, but they are also very professional, reliable, and organized – all very important qualities in this profession! We recently received our pictures and couldn’t be happier. They are absolutely amazing and they captured the entire day! We can relive our special moments again and again. This was the best investment we could have made and we are so grateful we found two incredibly talented individuals. Thank you, Steve and Courtney, for the best wedding photography experience that we could have ever imagined!!!

We hired Julien Photography to take photos and a video of our vacation rental and they did an absolutely amazing job! They were so professional and full of great and creative ideas. Steve and Courtney work so well together and were so friendly and cheerful! We loved the fact that they are husband and wife and can work together so effortlessly. We got so many great pictures back – it was so hard to narrow them down to our favorites. The high quality finished product has really allowed us to showcase our vacation rental property and we have had many compliments from our guests expressing how well the photos show the home. The video was fantastic as well – captured the vacation home perfectly!! We highly recommend them – they made the experience stress free and fun!!
