Welcome

Beautiful events without the overwhelm

At Hummingbirds Photography & Events, every celebration is planned with care, creativity, and attention to detail. Led by Julia Hathaway, the business combines more than a decade of event planning experience with a professional photographer’s eye.

What We Do

Planning, coordination, design, and photography

Wedding Planning

Full-service support from venue selection and vendor booking to décor, timelines, rehearsal, and day-of management.

Event Coordination

Professional organization for showers, birthdays, anniversaries, retirement celebrations, corporate events, and more.

Event Design

Thoughtful styling, décor direction, layout guidance, and visual details that reflect your personality and photograph beautifully.

Photography

Natural, meaningful photography focused on preserving the moments, people, and details that make your celebration yours.

Your Vision. Your Budget.

You set the budget. I make the plan work.

Your event budget is treated with care. After the planning fee is established, Julia coordinates vendors and details within your budget—from décor, photographers, DJs, and catering to rentals, florals, desserts, and entertainment.

The goal is simple: maximize every dollar without losing the feeling, style, or meaning behind your event.
