Phenomenal!

Valerie was THE BEST! During both our engagement shoot and our wedding she let us have so much fun while guiding us and taking phenomenal photos. She was also super timely and communicative and flexible. We had to reschedule our engagement shoot due to weather and she was super accommodating. The pictures turned out AMAZING and we even had guests commenting on how great she was. Would 100% recommend!

The Most Incredible Experience All Around

Valerie was our photographer for our wedding in May and I couldn't recommend her more! She was absolutely incredible to work with and we truly had the best experience!

My now husband and I wouldn't say we are very comfortable in front of the camera, but Valerie made the whole experience so fun. She was constantly laughing and joking with us to get more candid shots. She was also so good at giving directions and telling us exactly what pose to do so we never felt awkward.

When she posted her "sneak peeks" I had at least 10 people reach out to me to tell me how stunning they were. I kept having to say we didn't do anything; it was all Valerie! You can see the love and excitement in each photo. She captured our day so perfectly and I will always be grateful!!

Valerie is simply the BEST!

Valerie is truly AMAZING! She takes time to get to know her couples, which shines through in the photos she captures on your wedding day. I usually don't love the way I look in photos, and I literally cannot pick my favorite because there are so many good ones. I am obsessed with the entire wedding album and our friends and family cannot stop talking about how wonderful every single shot turned out. We could not have asked for a more excellent wedding photographer and will cherish these photos forever. We hope to continue to use Valerie to capture moments in our lives for years to come!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
