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.

That’s why my family sessions are designed to capture real, everyday moments in joyful, heartwarming photos you’ll treasure. Your family can relax and just be yourselves. From tickle fights to snuggles, big sibling hugs to toddlers running wild, I’ll capture the love and laughter that make your family yours.

Some of the best memories (and photos!) come when kids are just being themselves

As an experienced photographer and mom of six, I know that kids sometimes like to run around, play, or do anything other than cooperate. And it’s totally normal! That’s why I bring patience, flexibility, & playfulness to every session—along with a knack for finding beautiful moments when kids are just being kids.

Family Photos

"Valerie took amazing photos of our family! With grown kids 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. HIGHLY recommend!"

Family Session Packages

I offer three family session packages for you to choose from:

Classic session — a full session that allow plenty of time for kids to warm up, take breaks if needed, and capture a variety of genuine moments, both playful and connected, with multiple backgrounds.

Petite session — a shorter session for families looking to update family photos, or who want a quicker session option.

Extended session — a longer, more flexible session designed for extended family groups (up to 3 families + grandparents) or families who want a little more time.
