More than a Studio
More than a photographer
Jules Brown, founder of House of 301.
Photographer, Creative Partner, and with over a decade of modeling under her belt is here to serve Northern Michigan what you’ve asked for.
Guidance and knowledge to looking your best on camera, with a city girl touch.
I believe in the transformative power of being seen, the version of you that exists, but hasn’t been caught on camera yet. Most people don’t need a better vision. They need a photographer who already knows what to look for.
My work is guided by a decade of modeling experience. Living and working in major cities like NYC taught me to see beauty in many forms, but it always comes back to essence.
Portrait photography is about capturing presence, not just how you look, but how you show up. You don’t need to know how to pose. That’s my job.
You don’t have to be the most confident person in front of
the camera to look great in photos.
Through conversation, direction, styling, and a considered approach,
the goal is simple:
Images that feel natural, elevated, and unmistakably you.
Elevating how you show up,
in every space you’re in.
Most people don’t struggle with how they look, they struggle with how they feel on camera. That’s where I work differently.
With a background in modeling, I don’t just shoot, I guide. So you’re not guessing about what to do, and you’re not left hoping it turns out.
At House of 301, everything from light
to pacing, is intentional. Because when the experience is right, the photos follow.
