Julie Belton

Life is a journey, and I'm bringing my camera along for the ride. I'm all about loving hard and laughing harder. I start everyday with a warm cup of coffee, and end every night with a glass of red wine.

My images tell the secrets of my life story, where my passion for love and my life’s moments can be frozen in time. The inspiration comes from my love for music, and how I interrupt the songs of the heart. I reach inside my soul and beyond the parameters of reality to explore those destinations unknown. I choose photography as the medium which allows me to create and openly express my true feelings to the world.

I photograph real life people, objects and landscapes and use them to create an imaginary world that is both ethereal and surreal. Each image is created with a hint of uncertainty because I wish to involve the viewer in uncovering their own inner story. Using colors, textures and a variety of photographic techniques to immerse myself into a fantastic or idealized view of life where reality is a metaphor.
