Bio

My fine art prints collections will awaken your senses and bring life to the walls of your home by creating a sense of nature surrounding us always.

Julia Lochhead is a fine art photographer from Mount Maunganui, New Zealand. Her soft, long exposure seascapes evoke feelings of movement and peace, offering us windows into the imagination. At the same time, the familiar NZ beach art and coastal photos ground us in nature, reminding us that there is more to the world than just ourselves.

Julia grew up in rural New Zealand and developed a strong connection to nature and, especially, the ocean. Long summer holidays were spent by the beach and the water became her “soulful place.” She fell in love with photographic art, especially that concerned with creating movement, while attending a course at the London School of Photography.

I began learning to capture what it was that I was feeling and with this, photography became the way I saw the world.

After eight years, Julia came back home to further progress her passion by completing a 2-year diploma in Photographic Imaging. This formed a solid foundation for her to refine and evolve her techniques in fine art photography. She has had successful exhibitions at a local gallery in Mount Maunganui and has appeared in exhibitions at Art by the Sea, where many of her works are sold.
