The little moments don’t last forever
There are so many things you want to remember about your children, like your toddler’s mischievous smirk, the seven-year-old’s gap-toothed grin, or the way your teen’s eyes light up when they talk about something they love.
These everyday moments are the ones you’ll miss someday. That’s why my sessions are designed to capture your family as you are right now, in the midst of this busy, beautiful season of life.
So if your kids won’t hold still, you’re in the right place!
"Valerie took amazing photos of our family! With grown kids who begrudgingly showed up and a preschooler, we were all over the place, but she effortlessly coordinated poses, captured candid shots, and captured the fun that is our family.
After we got our photos back, my grown kids asked for photo canvases for Christmas! HIGHLY recommend!"
-LeaAnne S.
I believe that some of the best memories (and photos!) come when kids are just being themselves
As a mom of six, I know firsthand how quickly childhood goes by—and how rarely kids cooperate on command. That’s why I bring patience, flexibility, and playfulness to every session.
My sessions are relaxed and playful, with plenty of space for kids to just be themselves. Whether yours want to run and explore or stick close to mom and dad, we'll follow their lead while the moments unfold naturally.
From tickle fights to snuggles, big sibling hugs to toddlers running wild, I’ll capture the love and laughter that make your family yours.
Summer is such a beautiful time for family photos
Summer is one of my favorite times for family photos! Warm days, long evenings, and a relaxed pace make it easy to slow down and enjoy playful moments with your kids.
If golden sunshine, lots of laughter, and kids running through the grass sounds like how you want to remember this summer, now’s the perfect time to book your session. Let’s capture some unhurried summer moments before the season slips away.
