Meet Julie Smith aka jfoodsmith. She loves food and making the (styling) magic happen."Julie the Child” started cooking professionally at the tender age of eighteen only to learn her skills were best suited as a food stylist, (as her culinary cohorts had so kindly suggested :-).
They were right. After slinging hash in some of the most famous Bay Area haunts, being a food stylist was truly the perfect pivot.
Julie now helps clients-big and small-make their food sing.
Her compositions are true works of art: so mouth watering, you'll want to dive in fork first. Her styling wizardry will help take your products–and your business–to the next level.
And your customers? Well, they'll just want to buy more helpings.
As for Julie? In addition to styling, she is now teaching, developing recipes for clients, and holds a degree in Holistic Nutrition: a pretty perfect segue to dive deeper into the art, craft, and chemical magic of food.

"I’ve noted, after a decade of being in this business, that there are a handful of names you see consistently come up when the conversation steps into the topical realm of food styling. Julie’s renowned professionalism, skill, and always friendly demeanor has made “J-Food” a battle cry in the studio for when we need the absolute best on hand.”

"Working with Julie is nothing short of fantastic; from the moment she walks on set, she exudes a positive radiance and a passion for her craft that lasts the entire day. Julie's ability to listen to a client's direction, and bring her own creativity to the table are unlike most stylists I've ever worked with and she constantly goes above and beyond to ensure the crew is heard, taken care of, and above all - enjoying themselves!“
