ABOUT JULIE STAMENIC

“ It all started when moving to Norway…”

I was born and raised in Belgium. Since childhood, I have always been fascinated by the beauty of nature. While studying business, I got a chance to live in Trondheim, Norway, that's where my passion for photography came to life in 2013. My personal projects and fascination for chasing lights took me across the globe where I captured the wildest elements of nature.  Photography is my way of expressing my creativity and showing others the world in its purest way with an aim to spread awareness on how nature is fragile and how we need to preserve it. I like to share my shots on Instagram. In 2022, I presented my work at the Photo Days in Belgium as Canon selected me as one of its Young Talent this year. When I am not taking photos or working at the studio, you will most likely find me outside at the barn with Violeta, my horse, always taking me on fun adventures and helping me refocus on my main projects.
