Julia Bostock
London
Julia has been shooting kids, fashion and portraits for many brands and leading independent magazines in the UK and abroad. She has won awards, including the Julia Margaret Cameron Award - first prize for children's photography for ‘Grumpy Girl’ which was also exhibited at Photo London. This particular photo is part of an ongoing project documenting Scottish crafts and traditions, slated to be featured in an upcoming book. Additionally, it will be showcased in a joint exhibition scheduled to take place in Barcelona in December 2024, as part of the prize.
Constantly inspired by what she sees around her, she is always thinking of stories to capture. Referencing painting and sometimes vintage photography, she is eager to convey the emotions and moods of subjects and situations through her imagery. Alongside her commercial work, she is always documenting real life. The pandemic has helped her to slow down and notice the things around her, close to home, and as a result she has touched on many delicate issues and noticed the small details. She has an empathy with people which allows her subjects to feel comfortable and at ease.
