Capturing your moments so you can remember them forever

Hello, and welcome! I'm Valerie

 

 

Valerie Smith photographer in Great Falls MT

I'm a Great Falls, MT photographer and mom of six.


I help perfectly imperfect families like yours have beautiful, authentic photos that show off your family's unique connection and personality--even if your kids are being their usual unpredictable selves!


My own crew of six consists of one all-grown-up girl and five rowdy, what-on-earth-will-they-think-of-next? boys. If I get an afternoon away from the kids, I love to go for a long walk, play "Canon in D" on the piano, and curl up with a good old-fashioned mystery novel and a snack.

"The days are long, but the years are short."



If you've been a parent for any length of time, you know just how true that saying is. That's why I help families freeze moments in time with relaxed & fun family photo sessions that capture their family's love, connection, and personality.
