Valerie was so fun and easy to work with. She kept my husband and I feeling relaxed and having a blast while taking both the engagement and wedding pictures--which was a big deal to me. She brings a presence of calm that helps to bring down anxiety on a day that has a lot of moving parts. She also captured gorgeous photos very quickly which was a blessing because I had so many children in my wedding party.

I had wanted to take pictures outside, but I had gotten advice that scheduling pictures outside in February was not a good idea, so I had planned on settling for somewhere inside our venue. But Valerie was so calm and confident that we would make it work (and still have a plan for bad weather) that I felt comfortable with my initial plan, and it went brilliantly.

Her editing is gorgeous. I will always treasure the photos from that wildly perfect day, and I'll always be thankful she helped me stick to my dream of taking pictures outside. I'll always recommend her to friends.

We were lucky enough to have Valerie for both our engagement and wedding day photos and to say we were satisfied with her is definitely an understatement. From the first picture she took, she was in complete control while being open and receptive to ideas that the moment provided. Her knack for using light and making the most of every moment she’s given. When the day of the wedding arrived, she made sure to knock out the shot list efficiently so she could get back to what she’s so amazing at: capturing the moments worth remembering. Her professionalism and great attitude made working with her a breeze and we couldn’t be happier with her.

Valerie was awesome! She has such a laid back and easy going personality that it makes it really comfortable to shoot with her. My husband and I have always hated being in front of the camera but she made us relax and got some really great shots. She is great at taking any ideas you have and combining it with her own. I thought the price was very reasonable compared to a lot of other photographer packages I looked into. I would definitely use her again in the future.

Valerie is one of Oklahoma's hidden gems for a wedding photographer! Her prices are so reasonable which was a plus considering how incredible her photos turn out. Valerie did our engagement photos along with our wedding day. We even got our engagement photos back within a week!! Her sweet personality instantly made us feel at ease and we loved how she knew how to pose my husband and I. Each photo comes out beautiful, not cheesy! Valerie has a true gift and you won't be disappointed in choosing her as your photographer. :)

By far the most down to earth photographer I've had the pleasure of using. I used Valerie for 3 different sessions including my wedding. Superb quality, friendliness and comfort every time.

Valerie photographed our wedding in June 2016 at Belmar Golf Club in Norman. She had worked a couple weddings out there already so she was very familiar with the course & the venue, which was super helpful in getting the best shots possible! She perfectly captured how fun the night was. There were a lot of candid shots that we absolutely loved, you can't get those kind of pictures while posing. Another great thing, Valerie is very fairly priced and makes obtaining great wedding pictures affordable. We are so happy with our wedding photos, Valerie did a great job!

I love Valerie! She has taken care of all of my photography needs (except one time when she was already fully booked) since 2010!

My husband and I loved working with Valerie. Shopping around for a wedding photographer (or any wedding vendor for that matter) was not something that sounded fun or appealing to me but I felt very at ease once I met Valerie. Not only are her photographs amazing, but her personality is what sells it for us. She really listens to what you want as a couple in terms of style and your personalities. She was incredibly encouraging during our 105 degree engagement shoot and kept it fun and upbeat so the heat wasn't bothersome. During our wedding she was personable with everyone and put up with the wedding party needing directions repeated multiple times as people got excited and distracted. We requested to have a decreased amount of time placed in staged photos and lots of candid ones at the reception, and they turned out great! We also did not do a first look, and wanted to capture my husband's expression when I walked in, as well as my entrance. We were amazed when we got photos back of the ceremony because she captured so many angles and spots in the chapel we had our wedding in, but we never even noticed her moving around during the ceremony. The bridal party loved her and she was so much fun to have at our wedding. Bottom line: photos are phenomenal, pricing is fantastic, and Valerie really takes the time to get to know you and deliver photos personalized to your taste.

Valerie was so great to work with, and is the best value around Oklahoma City! She is such a dynamic person who can interact with anyone, and coming from a family of strong personalities, this was invaluable on our wedding day. Valerie did what needed to be done without having to be asked, and maneuvered the wedding like the pro that she is! We can't wait to see what gorgeousness she produced from that day, and we highly recommend her for any photography needs you have!

Valerie is a phenomenal wedding photographer! She knows exactly how to capture each moment to make it timeless and natural. She has a wonderful sense balance and color, and she does a fantastic job of making you feel at ease. Our images were absolutely exquisite and she made us both look beautiful. My husband had a cobalt blue suit that shifted colors with the lighting, and Valerie made it look just as dazzling in the photos as it was in person. She gave us a huge chunk of her time and energy, and is such a joy to be around as an individual! If you have the chance to hire Valerie, do not hesitate, because someone else will snap her up!
