Valorie Darling Photography was a crucial part of our wedding journey. Her approach was not only flexible and efficient but also incredibly genuine and kind. We felt so comfortable and relaxed during the entire weekend, which made the experience truly memorable. Valorie and her team quickly responded to all our inquiries, ensuring a smooth and stress-free process before the weekend.

One of the aspects we appreciated was her professionalism and dedication. Her quick turn-around with the images was astounding. I had sneak peeks from the two nights prior (rehearsal dinner and welcome party) emailed to me on the morning of our wedding! Her efficiency in capturing all the important moments of our special day was truly commendable.

Moreover, we cannot overlook the overall positive experience we had with Valorie Darling Photography. Her gentle and calming manner radiated through the weekend and the beautiful moments she captured were incomparable.,

We would highly recommend Valorie Darling Photography to any couple looking for a talented and caring photographer who can truly capture the essence of their special day. Thank you, Valorie, for being a part of our wedding and for creating timeless memories that we will cherish forever.

Where do we begin?! We hired Valorie (and Max) as our wedding photographers and it was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process. Not only did Valorie provide exceptional photography but the energy, professionalism, creativity and passion she brought to our wedding weekend was something my husband and I and our family and friends noticed and greatly appreciated. She made us feel comfortable and confident and made the experience so much fun for us. We will continue to cherish our wedding photos and have been lucky enough to have Valorie capture some family photos of us with our new daughter and look forward to working with her to help us document beautiful moments in our lives for years to come. She made such an impression on everyone at our wedding that my husbands sister hired her for her wedding in July this year. As if being a talented photographer wasn’t enough, her kindness and thoughtfulness is what stands out the most. We have found a wonderful friend in the process and are so grateful. Thank you, Valorie!

Valorie was everything that we could have ever asked for in a wedding photographer and more! The photos she took throughout our wedding weekend are ones we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Not only is she incredibly talented and professional - but she is a true joy to be around. She makes you feel so amazing and at ease throughout the entire process! She’s a wonderful person and feel honored to have had her as part of this momentous time in our lives!

Valorie Darling is a 10 out of 10 on every scale. I can’t express how much she helped me throughout my planning process and wedding weekend both- even after! She is thoughtful, kind, and so extremely talented. She made a point to make sure I was always happy and comfortable, as well was my family and friends. Everyone raved how amazing she was all weekend long and even more when the pictures came out. Her photos are timeless but also unique. I can’t recommend her enough. I wish I could get married again just to go through the experience with her one more time!

Vanessa with the Darling Collective was not only the best photographer I could have ever dreamed of for our wedding but she felt like a friend! All of our guest even raved about her! She has amazing energy and made us feel so comfortable. She captured every moment of our wedding beautifully and beyond exceeded my expectations! Valarie was extremely professional and on top of every detail prior to the wedding making sure her team didn’t skip a beat! The entire process with the Darling Collective was just incredible! They really go above beyond down to every detail! During the process they sent us the sweetest package with fun little gifts like a wedding survival kit that really came in handy during our wedding day! Even the usb drive they give you with your photos on it is adorable! These girls are a dream to work with! Hire them! You won’t regret it!!

Valorie Darling and team were extremely accomodating and gave us exactly what we were looking for. We would highly recommend!!

Valorie and the Darling Team are phenomenal. Val goes above and beyond to make you feel special, all while capturing gorgeous moments of your big day. We had a large wedding party and a big wedding, and Val was able to navigate the group with ease and get every shot. The photos are everything I wanted and more. I can't wait for an opportunity to work with Val again.

Valorie Darling Photography was an absolute dream! Words literally cannot express how grateful I am to Valorie and Vanessa for the photography they produced on my wedding day. After years of working in fashion and marketing, I have high standards when it comes to photography and aesthetics. Valorie’s aesthetic is everything wedding photos should be - romantic, timeless, and illustrative.

I opted for the Darling Collective package, and in planning a destination wedding, we met our photographers on the day of the wedding. Valorie’s comprehensive questionnaire and introduction process is the best I’ve seen; she was able to understand our desires, personality, and vision quickly and thoroughly and paired us with the perfect photographer for our wedding day. Valorie’s questions addressed every little thing which helped me in the planning process - addressing items and articulating my vision in a way that me and my fabulous wedding planner had not.

Vanessa and Katrina were our wedding day photographers. Their bright, kind, and positive personalities could not have been a better compliment to the intimate moments of the day. They knew exactly when to produce / direct and when to observe / capture. Everyone in my wedding party was completely charmed by them. I have chills writing this because they are just that genuine and beautiful of people. I’m so grateful because I know how surprisingly impactful a photographer’s personalty can be to a couple’s wedding day experience, and Vanessa and Katrina we’re A++++. I’ll love them forever.

Valorie’s edits were stunning, brining a soft, airy, romantic feel to each scene captured. The team delivered a sneak peak of photos within days of the wedding and the entire collection came shortly after, on her easy-to-navigate photo-sharing platform. Valorie also delivered a beautiful external drive with all the photos, accompanied by a lovely and thoughtful box of goodies. Valorie Darling Photography is stellar, white-glove service delivered in the most personable, genuine manner. Valorie, I am forever grateful to you and your team for the most memorable experience and the most stunning photos to capture a momentous day of our lives.

Valorie Darling and her Darling Collective team were AMAZING! I keep telling everyone that the photographer was my favorite vendor for SO many reasons. Not only did they make the day of photos easy and natural, but they were the most amazing pictures. Our family and friends were blown away by the quality of the photos. They are natural and show the true magic of the wedding day. They also got us sneak peaks within 24 hours of the wedding. I would highly recommend working with them!!! Valorie and Vanessa are just the absolute best and they make sure that the wedding day is incredibly smooth by working SO well with everyone else throughout the planning process.

Valorie Darling is the most skilled and hard-working woman I know! She is unbelievable at what she does and she is able to capture a moment in time just flawlessly. She is outgoing and bubbly— she makes everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. You won’t be able to find another photographer as amazing as she is!
