ABOUT THE ARTIST

I’m Julie Grohs — a photographer, veterinarian, and lifelong observer of the quiet language of animals

My work is shaped by decades spent understanding their movement, emotion, and presence.

I create heirloom artwork meant to honor the soul of the animals we love — wild or domestic — through light, intention, and patience.
