A Self-Portrait Experience
AWAKEN TO BEAUTY.
for more presence, more INSPIRATION & more connection to yourself & OUR WORLD
This in-person and online experience blends self-portrait photography with creative and spiritual practices—journaling, dreamwork, meditation, working with myth & archetypes, visualisation, ritual & PLAY —allowing for an expansion of perception, a stretching of consciousness, a deepening self-awareness, and an embrace of the emotions that continually flow through us.
It is a journey of self-discovery through the lens, an exploration of the self as an ever-evolving story wanting to be told.
In this world, nature is the living, breathing Here/Now.
Every shadow, every glimmer of light becomes part of the sacred act of seeing.
Attention is an act of connection, of recognition -
a doorway through which love is experienced, play is ignited and creation is born.
The reward for your attention is always healing.
My mission is to awaken you to beauty and guide you into deeper connection—with yourself, with others, and with the world.
I believe in the power of attention.
My life has been one of constant transformation, of seeking and sometimes finding, of becoming & unbecoming. I have come to understand that true beauty is not about perfection but about depth, about the layers we are willing to uncover, the attention we are willing to give to each passing moment, each reflection.
It’s about the courage to meet ourselves in that presence fully, to express shamelessly and share vulnerably.
Through 'The Unveiling World', I invite you to slow down, to get curious, to witness, and to awaken to the intricate landscapes of your being through the lens of self-portraiture and other creative, soulful practices.
Join me in trusting your unique unfolding, so you may witness yourself with courage, compassion, and wonder.
We learn to see ourselves as the beautiful, ever-evolving works of art that we are
We learn to fall in love with ourselves & with the world,
over & over again
You long to feel rooted in yourself after a lifetime of adapting, hiding, or never quite belonging.
You feel a deep pull to reconnect with nature—not just as scenery, but as a sacred mirror.
You’re ready to meet your reflection not with judgment, but with curiosity, reverence, and love.
The idea of looking at a photograph of yourself feels vulnerable… and you’re willing to lean into that.
You want to reclaim your attention, awaken your perception, and return to the here and now.
You want to remember the child, the artist, the wild visionary within.
You feel called to explore self-portraiture, storytelling, ritual, and the profound magic of witnessing.
You seek beauty not in perfection, but in rawness & in truth.
You are drawn to the poetry of the natural world and wish to be in dialogue with it.
You’re curious about photography as a portal—not just a tool. (No experience required—just a willingness to see.)
Whether you are a seasoned creator or just beginning your journey,
your attention is welcome here.
Every artwork takes time. This is a path of patience, of tending to you mystery. There is no rush, no expectation of immediate transformation. Instead, this work invites you to linger, to unfold at your own rhythm, to build a relationship with yourself that is rooted in presence, honesty, and love.
The day I spent with Julia was extraordinary. To be honest, I went into the experience sceptical, scared to death, not sure I was ready to go through the experience. Julia was able to transcend my fears and guide me with confidence, empathy and listening skills. I have a very conflicted relationship with my image, and it's very difficult for me to let go. Yet I let myself embark on this exploration of myself and others, using nature as a vehicle. I came away feeling confident and proud. Julia has that magical, reassuring aura that carries you along. She gives you all the tools you need to continue the work throughout your life. It's an experience you have to have at least once in your life, as the learning is so rich. I can only warmly recommend that you embark on this adventure with her.
