You probably know by now that Matt and I went on our honeymoon to the Austrian Alps and Bavaria, and it was amazing! Since I’m a photographer, I take a lot of great photos of Matt when we travel, but other than some selfies, we really didn’t have many good photos of the two of […]

I visit my parents in Fort Myers, Florida a few times a year, and we’ve taken a lot of amazing boat rides around the area! On my last trip, we rented a boat from Pine Island and did some sightseeing around Pine Island and North Captiva Island before heading to Cabbage Key (if you don’t […]

I love getting to see cities from up high when I travel, and Copenhagen has some great (and surprisingly cheap) towers you can climb! Copenhagen is one of the most beautiful cities to get views of because the roofs are so colorful, and the tallest buildings downtown are historic with amazing detailed roofs and towers. […]

Matt and I are getting married! You’ve probably seen me talk about it on social media because I’m a little excited, and I thought I would share our love story after we took our engagement photos. We did our engagement photoshoot in Old City Philadelphia with Kristen of Petal and Glass Photography and I love […]

I am SO excited to announce that I’ve finally launched a travel photography store! 🙂 I am selling my photos as prints in different sizes, and you can check the store out here or by using the Shop tab on the black bar at the top of the page! To celebrate my store’s launch, you […]

To kick off the new year and celebrate my second blogiversary, I’ve changed my blog’s name from Philly with a Fjallraven to Through Julia’s Lens! 🙂 I’ve been thinking about changing the name for a while now and brainstormed for the past few months to come up with the perfect name. So why the change? […]

I’m taking a break from my fun Italy posts to address something more serious- what to do when someone steals your intellectual property or uses it without your permission. Because yes, it happened to me. Recently, I happened to search for Burano Island on Pinterest to see if any of my pins were doing well. […]

You can view all posts from my trip to Italy here.  If you read last week’s post, you’ll know that I fell in love with Florence! It’s such a beautiful city, and I enjoyed it much more than Venice and Verona. On our second day in Florence, we went on a tour of Tuscany for […]

You can view all posts from my trip to Italy here.  You may have read last week’s post where Verona didn’t win my love, but thankfully, Florence more than made up for our disappointing experience. We had an awesome time visiting the Duomo, seeing beautiful buildings, touring Tuscany (stay tuned for that post!), and eating […]

You can view all posts from my trip to Italy here.  I wanted to love Verona, Italy, but I just didn’t (like my feelings for Venice). I was actually much more excited about seeing the coliseum rather than Juliet’s balcony because I read that it’s better preserved than the one in Rome, but it turned […]

Khoi from Gentleman Within recently nominated to participate in the 11 Questions Challenge, and then Brittany from The Rinky-Dink Life nominated me for the Liebster Award! It’s great timing since it’s been over a year since I participated in the Liebster Award and Sisterhood of World Bloggers challenges and I have quite a few new […]
