Advertising Photography

I love creating advertisements! The creative process is key. I'm happy to create what's needed on my own or to work with a creative director. I like projects where I help brainstorm and plan photographs that will have the the most influence and will best fit the need. I work in both digital and film. I do production work for web, products, and for print.

I speciallize in creating images that are:

• Unusual and memorable
• Exciting and fun
• Stylized and professional

I can call on many talented performers, models, make up artists, and costume designers who I've worked with in the past.

On-line advertisements

White background photographs offer maximum flexibility and lend themselves naturally to being used in advertisements. Whatever ad you would like to create, we'll create ideal images to match your need.

“Julian is an amazing portrait photographer. His talent resides in his ability to create an atmosphere of trust that invites the person being photographed to freely expose their essence. I have enjoyed watching Julian work his magic. He puts people at ease and makes the experience fun and joyful. He is reliable, consistent, detail-oriented, and extremely creative. KQED has employed Julian on two occasions for photo shoots and the results have been exceptional.”  - Wendy Goodfriend

Products made with photographs

The Rubberboy Lunchbox: Creating photographs which are used to build products presents challenges that require both creativity and forethought. For this lunchbox, the images needed to be designed, the photographs needed to be taken, and then I created the images as per the manufacturers instructions. Thanks to the careful planning and detail oriented execution, the lunch boxes turned out perfectly! The creation of the lunchbox was a collaboration between Rubberboy, Attaboy, and I.

Blondie T-shirts: I worked with the band Blondie to create a series of portraits. Two t-shirts resulted from these images. Debbie and the rest of be band were a blast to work with and absolutely loved the images we created together..

Print and magazine

The images I create tend to be sensationalistic, fun, and technically well executed. This makes them ideal for advertisments, magazine covers, book covers, and other print media.
