    I was extremely happy with my wedding photos! Val does an amazing job, is easy to work with, and paid attention to all of the little details I wanted to remember on our special day!

    Val was professional, accommodating, and artistic. She made it easy for us to look our best, and she chose elegant, refined, and romantic poses that we would not have thought of! Thanks to Val, we thoroughly enjoyed our wedding and now have a beautiful wedding album that captures the magic of our special day and evening. Val is highly recommended.

    Val is absolutely amazing! From the first time I spoke with her, to the night of my wedding, she was there making sure she knew what I wanted, and that we were happy. I Loved her! She is so good at what she does, and you can tell how much she loves her work. She's very professional but also very fun to be around. She took amazing pictures, sometimes you didn't even know she was there. She's creative, artistic and just an all around great person. I would totally hang out with her! Reasonable prices, great communication, and beautiful work. If you're looking for a photographer, don't hesitate to call her! You will be so glad you did!

    Val was a pleasant surprise. She was recommended to me by another photographer who was not available to photograph my wedding. Fortunately, Val Messer was available and she was very responsive when I notified her. She kept in touch throughout the process and answered my questions and concerns. Val was genuine and she truly cared about making our wedding day special. She was very flexible and accommodating especially since we asked on short notice to have pictures taken at other locations. Her demeanor was very professional and pleasant! Val made the wedding party feel at ease during the photography sessions and we found her very responsive to our requests. It was nice to have one less thing to worry about and we were able to enjoy the day! We will have a hard time choosing between some of the great pictures that Val took as we have many favorites. There were people who attended the wedding who wanted Val's contact information as they were planning to recommend her to others. I would not hesitate to recommend Val as your wedding photographer.

    Val is simply AMAZING. The photos she captured are beautiful. She is truly a talented perfectionist, everything me and my husband hoped for for our special day. We LOVED working with her. We are SO happy!

    After talking with several other photographers over the phone and via email, Val was the first wedding photographer that we met in person- and we booked with her immediately. Our engagement and wedding photos turned out absolutely gorgeous! Honestly, they are stunning and we have received so many compliments on our engagement and the small amount of wedding day photos she has released so far.
    I started out my photographer search by searching the "$" on all of the wedding websites and came across Val Messer Photography. The pics on her website is really what attracted me to meeting with her. We started out thinking we wanted to spend a minimal amount on photography (as our friends would all be taking pics to share as well), but by the time we got our engagement photos back we upgraded to a much bigger package with her. We wanted ALL the photos!! I asked some friends what they had paid for their photographers and Val was really affordable compared to what they had paid. AND the photos look like they are really high level work.
    Get this, our wedding was on Friday 8/15/14 she had already touched up about 15-20 photos for us to see and share by the next day! We were able to see them before we left for our honeymoon. We were shocked she would get these out so quickly. The style of photos are very classic, yet artistic -- not the normal color and lightly quality that can be really boring. I feel like I'm gushing, but I am so happy that we booked her!
    Val is really easy to work with as far as scheduling and personality. On our wedding day she was there and ready to go. She seamlessly fit in with the other vendors (caterer and DJ booked independently) and had a good time with the guests.
    If you like her style of photography, I would absolutely recommend booking with her. Someday soon, when we start to have kids, we'll be booking our family photos with Val :-)

    My husband and I absolutely LOVED Val Messer Photography! Val was wonderful from beginning to end! We had a small (~30 guests) wedding at our home, she came for a pre-wedding visit, was easily reachable by phone or email, and took so many wonderful shots. We were absolutely amazed! About a month after our wedding, we received a flash drive with 1000+ edited digital images with release rights. I would highly recommend her for your wedding, big and small!

    Val was very flexible in tailoring her services to the type of photography I wanted for my special day. She was easy to work with and did a beautiful job capturing the feeling of the day in the photos. Val provided professional services and I will use her again for any future events that I would like professional photography for.

    When my husband and I were looking for a photographer for our wedding, we wanted to stay within our budget and also have amazing pictures. When I saw Val's pictures on her website, what really struck me was the color in them. The brightness in the photos and the contrast in colors was phenomenal. I arranged a meeting with Val right away- and once I saw the way the photo albums come out I was sold. Val was very easy going and great to work with. Our engagement photos came out marvelous and she spent the whole wedding day with us, by the end of the wedding, I felt like Val should have been one of my bridesmaids because she contributed so much towards my special day!!!

    Val was professional and easy to work with. She went out of her way to make everything convenient for us. We would highly recommend her to anyone for any event or special moment in your life. She is very talented and our pictures are better than we could have imagined!

    Working with Val as our wedding photographer was a dream. She took a special interest in our engagement photos, asking our opinions and showing us some favorite shots during the session. Val was also very flexible when we needed to modify the location of our engagement photo session. During our wedding, Val was invisible when taking the best candid shots, yet she was always there when needed to gather friends and families for a photo. I must say, Val was such a calming presence in the midst of the reception, especially when events occured in an unexpected order. Most importantly, the photos were gorgeous. She captured beautiful moments that my husband and I will treasure for many years to come.

    Val was an amazing photographer, and my husband and I are so glad that we selected her to capture our wedding memories. She is incredibly easy to work with and extremely dedicated to her art. She will definitely go the extra mile to get the perfect shot (e.g. stomping around a wet Vermont forest in rubber boots just to ensure we had perfect engagement session shots). We had four sessions with Val: engagement, wedding, reception (one week after the wedding in a different location), and a trash the dress session. Spending so much time with a photographer could have been tedious, but Val really just became one of the family. We recently picked up our albums from her, and it was like getting to see an old friend again.

    For those who care less about personality and more about work quality, you’ve got that covered with Val as well. Her photographs are amazing. She has a great eye for composition and ensured that we had beautiful shots that we could share with family and friends with pride. She was open to ideas that we had for shots, but came with plenty of her own that resulted in beautiful pictures. Her albums are also gorgeous. She set up beautiful layouts and was very patient as we asked for multiple minor alterations to ensure that they were just what we wanted.

    I would highly recommend Val to anyone looking to capture a wedding or other important life event. In so many ways, the photographer is the most important wedding vendor (the pictures are the only thing – other than the marriage – that will last forever), and my husband and I could not have been happier with Val’s photography and albums.

    Working with Val Messer was such a great experience! From my engagement photos to the wedding pictures, everything was amazing. She is so professional and will make sure that she does everything to produce fantastic pictures. I am so happy that I went with her as my photographer. It took my husband and I a very long time to pick a wedding photographer and I am very glad that we went with Val Messer Photography!

    Val did an amazing job for our wedding. She was very responsive to our wants and needs. I found it extremely helpful to write down all of the important people and make a list of all the pictures that you want taken on your wedding day.
