Maternity

About 16 months ago I photographed my mother while she was pregnant with my sister Sofia. The picture came out beautiful. For my mothers birthday I framed it and I blew it up for her and now it's hanging in my sisters room. After taking these shots my mothers sister in law called me up and asked me to take pictures of her while she was pregnant with her beautiful baby boy Adam.

I would like to thank Kristina & my mother for allowing me to photograph them during this beautiful stage in their lives.

Photographing maternity is a new experience. Each woman is unique while pregnant, and they all possess a glow to them which makes them so gorgeous. I can't wait to take more maternity shots. If you know of anyone pregnant who wants some work done don't hesitate to contact me.

Here are some pictures from my mother and Kris. Thanks again girls, I hope I put a smile on your face!

Summer of '07

Summer of 2007, definitely one I will remember forever.  I learned alot this summer about myself, my interests, my talents.  I met new people and I began to realize just how much I enjoyed capturing special moments through the lens of a camera.  
I photographed 2 baptisms this summer.  I photographed an adorable baby boy, Joseph Da Silva.  He was a delight to work with.  I captured some beautiful shots on his special day.  I would like to thank the entire family for their hospitality especially his parents Joey and Amanda.  Here are a few pics from the baptism.

I also had the pleasure of photographing my sisters baptism. Her pictures start after the 4th picture on the page. Sofia is now 13 months old and she gets cuter by the day. The day was fun, but exhausting considering I offered to do both video and photography for my sister. It was difficult lugging around a video camera on one arm and a digital camera on the other. But the hard work payed off, and we have some beautiful pictures from her baptism and I am in the process of editing the video. I should be posting a clip from it sometime in the near future.

Julian's Blog

Welcome to my blog, my name is Julian Moniz.  

I figured the best way to start my blog is to tell you a little bit about myself, what I do and what this blog will be about.

First and foremost I am a photographer.  I do it all, mostly weddings, special events, clubs, maternity shots, and more.   I love to dab in all types of photography.  

I started doing weddings 4 years ago with my father bert moniz who owns a successful video & photography company called bertmoniz video & photography.  He has been in business for 22 years and every year we keep getting better.  I started with a video camera and then moved on to photography.  I enjoy both.  Check out our website.  http://www.bertmoniz.com 

I do club and event photography for an entertainment company called 10Fold Entertainment.  For event information or guest list contact me @ jmoniz@10foldentertainment.com.  You can also check out the website http://www.10foldentertainment.com

I am also an actor.  I have starred in a variety of independent films most of which were shot by Reel Film Pictures, which is owned by a friend of mine Mark Pagliaroli.  

I wanted to create this blog to keep my audience up to date with upcoming events, photos and videos of my work, upcoming shows and whatever else I got goin' on in my head.

So keep coming back I'll do my best to keep you entertained!
