Reviews

"Valerie is one of the most skilled, professional, and down to earth photographer’s that we have worked with."

She was able to connect with not only me but my husband and 8 month old son during our session. We plan on using Valerie for all future moments that will mean so much to our family. Thank you for capturing our memories!

Her style and eye behind the camera is unmatched. Her genuine kindness and compassion for her clients makes you feel like you are a part of her family. She captures the most amazing, beautiful, intimate moments that leave you just wanting to share every big or small life event with her.

Nice to meet you

Not your typical  photographer here.

Based in Rochester, NY and open to wandering outside of this little town. I claim myself as an intuitive and narrative photographer which simply means I choose to document others in an authentic story-telling way. I accomplish this form of photography by getting to know you, your partner, and/or whoever else accompanies you during photos. After you submit an inquiry, I begin to get to know you and yours through more dialogue and a questionnaire. During our time together, you will notice that I zone into observation mode. It is here in this visual space where my intuition steps in and I study the movements between. I will vocalize what I see to you and encourage more of that connection I perceive to document those genuine moments.
