Mentoring

Do you need that bit of feedback and extra guidance from a trusted person to help you take your images up to the next level?

I am able to do this by assisting you in your photographic practice to more clearly communicate your vision.

 

Is your photography or photo-media practice important enough to you to invest in professional expertise and guidance?

If so, I offer my professional mentoring consultancy, to support and develop the value you place in expressing yourself and your vision through your photography.

Have a read through my mentoring flyer

Investing in equipment is considered mandatory and not given a second thought, but investing in valuable and necessary expertise and guidance offered by trusted and respected teachers and mentors is equally as important.

I dedicate myself wholeheartedly as a mentor; to listen, observe, discern and to offer suggestions and guidance.

Through this programme I offer exclusive, personalised, confidential, one-on-one feedback, tuition, discussion and guidance in relation to your photo-media practice.

Whether your photo-media is of the environment you are in, is staged or directed, or heavily manipulated or transformed; I am able to mentor you to help you to create images which communicate more effectively.

Learning how to ‘listen’ to what your own images say is imperative if you want to be able to express your vision through them. All aspects of your photo-media practice will be considered in assisting you to create more powerful, expressive images.

Because I only mentor a small number of students, and application process is required.

Please refer to my brochure and contact me by email for application guidelines.

About the Author: Julie
I am a Journeywoman. I live my life as an explorer. An adventurer. An Observer. An Artist. There is no differentiation between how I live my life and the art that is an expression of it. It is through my experience adventuring the unknown, that I learn more about myself. My aim through this connection is to live where my expression is fully in alignment with the essence of who I am. “In the field of Fine-Art Photography, Julie stands apart from others with the way she sees the world and expresses her connection within it. Julie Stephenson’s photographs are sublime. Her work is an expression of her deep connection; and a gift to the world.”

𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭 | 𝐇𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦 𝐓𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬 Luxury Handwoven Blankets 🌏Stories from life & global adventures 🧩Woven into unique collector pieces Explore ⬇️
  • Tips and techniques are the starting point to make sound handwoven pieces, but after that- it’s up to you to spend all those hours weaving something that just doesn’t fill in the time. You will never truly be happy with that. 

Come follow along to glean some insights into making pieces that are meaningful to you and bring a deeper sense of accomplishment alongside pieces that you actually love.
  • It’s warping day. On a previous reel I explained what a warp was. Today in my studio I need to tension warp threads to wind the warp onto the rear beam.  

I can’t be at both ends at the same time, so being a rather practical person, I came up with a plan! Perfect solution! Doesn’t save me going to the gym though! hehehe

Here I’m using my fabulous Ashford Rigid Heddle 48” / 120cm loom. 

You can save this for future reference; and to see how important it is for me to be resourceful so that I can satisfy my inner need to weave soulful blankets; come along and follow me.

  • Ever been told you were too ‘out there’? .. or too ..’{something}? 

I’m grateful my ‘too…. ‘ was seen in me, because those qualities have led me to live an extraordinary life. Presently I’m weaving some of those stories from my crazy life driving a 100 year old Vauxhall around the world; into my handwoven blankets. 

Save this as a reminder to reflect on your own ‘too … {something} quality. Love you to share with us all what you were told you were ‘too…{something}; growing up.
  • Ever been told you are ‘too…..’ {something} growing up?

I was told I was too ‘out there’.

I’m grateful that was seen in me, because those qualities have led me to live an extraordinary life. Presently I’m weaving some of those stories in my handwoven blankets. 

Save this as a reminder to reflect on your own ‘too … {something}… and love you to share with us all what you were told you were ‘too…’ growing up.
  • The girl who was ‘too out there, too clumsy, too easily distracted, too independent growing up - was ‘too much’; and this is precisely the reason for her extraordinary life. 

Now an artist; weaver, photographer, travelling the world; family; friends; a life rich with experiences. 

A woman who celebrates her ‘too-muchness’. 

My name is Julie and I share my life stories, and weave some of those into handwoven blankets. 

I also share some photographs of how I see the world. 

I’ve been told for much of my life that I’m ‘too out there. Too much’. I am so grateful they noticed! 

Save this as a reminder to reflect on your own ‘too-muchnesses. Love you to share with us all what you were told you were ‘too…’ growing up, and perhaps YOUR story!
  • If this doesn’t look like you running to your studio to weave, perhaps you need some creative inspiration? 

Come follow along and see if you can find yourself some tips and creative mojo to get you running to your loom like I do!
  • Your weaving isn’t valued because it looks like it was made by a machine.
It is valued because it didn’t! 
Come along for tips, ideas and inspiration; as we create what is valued - together.
  • Just realised that perfection in your weaving isn’t the goal? Perfection isn’t what it’s cracked up to be. Machines can do that. Soul-less. What you create with your own hands is unique and unreplicable. 
Come join me as we weave our own life stories through our own hands.
  • Want perfection? Use a machine. Your hands are the whole point. Your hands leave traces that your pieces are made by a human. Your own lived experience. Soul-filled! 

Want your own handmade - creative inspiration, tips and ideas?
