Your Story,
Beautifully Told
I've spent the last 10 years perfecting the craft of pausing life's fleeting moments and I am honored you're here. I've developed my style around the desire to make you feel completely comfortable and confident throughout your guided lifestyle photography experience. I will suggest to you where to hold, where to look, when to emote joy or be still in the moment, and the rest will naturally unfold. Your love translated through photography is a gift that keeps on giving.
Behind the Lens
Heyyy - my name is Valerie. I’m 37 years old, a self-taught photographer, iced latte lover, sunshine seeker, wife and mom of 3. Born and raised in Naples, Florida, these jaw-dropping sunsets made me obsessed with the beach and photographing the magic it creates.
Crazy but true...my husband and I have been together since we were 13. We have molded each other into the passion-chasing humans we are today and I wouldn't have it any other way.
It's my pleasure to capture your love and emotions during our shoots. I hope to meet you soon <3
I specialize in capturing real moments, influenced by my poses and posing prompts, in the glow of natures light.
you and the ones you love most, beautifully preserved.
Love Stories, Told By You
from Brooke...
Valerie was feeling under the weather and still showed up and my fiancé and I couldn’t tell one bit that she was under the weather. Valerie came prepared, brought her years of experience, and had an amazing personality. I couldn’t have imagined paying anyone else to do my photos. If you’re looking for AMAZING photos and someone who will make your photos a memory you won’t forget, Valerie is your person.
from Sahar...
We absolutely LOVED working with Valerie. She is so kind and genuine, making us feel so comfortable every step of the way. You can tell she has a strong passion for her work. She has such a creative soul and an artistic eye, it truly shows in the beautiful moments she captured for us. We can’t stop looking through all the gorgeous photos she took. We worked with her for our maternity shoot, as well as our first family shoot, and plan to continue working with her in the future. We couldn't be happier with our experience, and we would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!
from Jennifer...
Valerie recently did an engagement photoshoot for my fiancé and I. She was so easy going, and is a true professional at what she does. I’m a very shy person and so is he, but Valerie made us laugh and caught the most amazing photos! I’m definitely blown away by her talent. 100% recommend. I can’t wait to book her for our next photoshoot!
Photographing the warmth of your love, the joy in your laughter, and the calm in your connection—I turn these moments into timeless art.
