Today the prints from my FOTOARTISTA experience arrived, special gifts meant for loved ones. Juanita, these prints bring back memories of the amazing experience my sister Lynn and I had of being photographed by you. I am blown away by your talent, your ability to sneak behind any lack of confidence and insecurity and capture such poignant vulnerability, deep bubbling laughter and, if I do say so myself, inner hot sexy women!!!
You reveal us out of our comfort zones with such grace and respect. This wasn't merely a photo shoot for me, it was a personal development playshop (with champagne!) and I loved every minute of it. The experience itself was worth the investment, the prints are scrumptious icing on the cake. The mood you evoked and the shots you captured of Lynn and I will be keepsakes I will treasure for the rest of my life - THANK YOU!

It was my dream for you to photograph us, our moment. And lets be honest, I am not the easiest subject to photograph. Firstly being a photographer myself and secondly disliking being in front of the camera. But you reminded me of what we do, of how it feels to be on the other side and never could I ask for a better person to be in front of.
Why? You are a supreme talent. You have an ease while I know your mind is racing to create magical scenes. Your artistic abilities have no limits, yet what you capture is romantic, etherial, and what us brides imagine love to be. It is whimsical, it is dreamy, this is what we all picture in our minds, and you juanita are one of the few who know how to deliver this.
There is no bullshit, its just straight, honest and darn right mind-blowing photography. Love, love love, them all. Never before have i have looked at a photo of myself and said "wow" until now..

As an artist/performer, many assume that working in front of a camera is easy for me. Nothing could be further from the truth! So, when I started working with Juanita Broderick on my promotional work, campaigns for theatre projects, and actors Head and Shoulder shots back in 2006, I could not have found a creative more capable of bringing out the honesty, richness and warmth I was hoping for.
Juanita Broderick is phenomenal. Her talent and eye for detail is married perfectly with an openness and ease behind the camera. She finds the core of the women she’s working with and coaxes the best out of them – often without them even knowing it. I place a huge amount of trust in Juanita every time we work together, and unsurprisingly, she continues to raise the bar with each project and shoot.
