MIXING MY LOVE OF SEWING WITH PHOTOGRAPHY

In March 2020, when Covid-10 shut down most of the U.S., my twelve years as a full time wedding photographer came to a screeching halt. Shooting large indoor events was too much of a risk for my immunocompromised body, so it was time to switch gears. I had barely sewn since seventh grade home economics, but in August 2020 I completed my first dress: an Eliza Schuyler Hamilton Halloween costume for my youngest daughter. I enjoyed the process so much that I followed it up by purchasing more patterns and trying my hand at different types of garments and fabrics. It didn't take long before I started offering my services to others, and Custom Kids' Clothes was born! 

​

If you purchase an item from me, and you're within driving distance of my Winchester, VA photo studio, I'd love to invite your child in for a free photo shoot! It's a great opportunity for me to see kids enjoying my makes while adding new images to my growing portfolio! Please contact me, Julie, at customkidsclothesVA@gmail.com for more information.
