Testimonial
“"Valerie takes the most beautiful newborn and maternity photos ever. She was very patience with our 6 week old, taking the time to sooth her between transitions. I received so many compliments from both sessions in the tone that they were the most beautiful photos they had ever seen. If you are on the fence due to price I would just bite the bullet and invest in pictures that you can always have and look back on. " - April C”
“"My maternity photoshoot with Valerie was a transformative experience and the most fun I ever had. I loved the instructions she prepared before the shoot to help me understand what to have with me. Her new studio is gorgeous, cozy and welcoming. I absolutely loved all the outfit options that were available and had a lot of fun with the wardrobe. Valerie is a warm person with a beautiful soul and she made me feel beautiful and comfortable in my skin, which at 8 months pregnant is the greatest gift."”
