“Valerie made me feel so at ease and I'm blown away by her work! I'm so happy to have these beautiful photo memories!”

“Valerie made us comfortable, made us laugh, and never stopped taking photos!”

— Kelly, 2019 bride

“Valerie was absolutely incredible and really understood the style we were looking for and did everything she could to get the images of our day we wanted, including going off site a few blocks away to get pictures at the Ellas Deli carousel. Every image she got is pure love and joy, of us and all our friends and family. I couldn't be more satisfied”

— Lauren, 2018 Bride

“We loved working with Valerie! She was so flexible and easy to work with. She communicates well, knows what she needs to do, and his pictures are absolutely stunning. She made our special day go so smoothly and we are so grateful to work with her again at our anniversary party! Thank you for everything, Valerie! We’re so glad you could join us and enjoy the day too!”

— Jennifer, 2020 Bride

“Valerie and her assistant were both awesome! They made us feel very comfortable with every shot they took so the poses felt very natural. Valerie was very outgoing and fun, she got every picture we asked for and was open to random pose ideas we came up with. She found the best locations and angles to take great shots of us, our wedding party and guests. She was prompt and responsive to any questions we had before our big day as well. We would definitely recommend Valerie because she took amazing photos!

— Randi, 2019 Bride

1 - Let’s see if we vibe!

I’d love to connect with you! Fill out the form below and we can set up a phone chat, Zoom call, or meet for coffee. I’ll guide you through a typical wedding day with me and show you some full wedding albums. From there, I’ll be happy to go over anything else you need—whether that’s discussing sample timelines, answering any remaining questions, or just chatting to get to know each other better!

2 - Booking & Planning

If you and your fiancé choose me to capture your wedding, I’ll send an electronic contract and invoice. To reserve your date, a 25% deposit is required, with the balance due one month before the wedding. I accept digital payments through your preferred apps or checks for convenience.

Once that’s set, we’re officially booked! I’ll send you a brief questionnaire to gather all the details and help you plan. Together, we’ll create a timeline that works for you, your guests, and your vendors—ensuring we capture every must-have moment.

3 - The Big Day!

The day is finally here! I’ll typically arrive early to get the lay of the land, scout photo locations, and meet both sides of the bridal party. From there, we’ll enjoy your wedding day, having fun, soaking in each moment, and capturing photos along the way. I'll work discreetly to capture candid moments as well as posed portraits of you, your wedding party, and your guests. All the planning and organizing have finally come together—now, just enjoy your day and let me handle everything else!

4 - Your Wedding Photos!

After the wedding, I'll carefully select the photos that meet my high-quality standards and digitally edit them by hand. You’ll receive the final images through an online gallery where you can view, download, and share them with family and friends, reliving the memories of your special day. If you'd like, I can also help you create beautiful keepsakes like albums or canvases to preserve these cherished moments for generations to come.

I look forward to capturing your beautiful moments!

- Valerie
