"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.

Let's capture those precious moments in heartwarming, personality-filled family portraits that you can cherish forever.

Step 2: Get ready for your session
Once your session is booked, it’s time to get started planning your family's photo session! You’ll choose your location from a list of my favorite spots, or let me know if there’s a place that's special to your family. (Petite sessions are held at beautiful Garden Home Park.)
You'll also receive a session prep guide with tips on choosing outfits, getting the kids in the right frame of mind, & more. A complimentary outfit consultation is included if you need a little extra help selecting outfits.
During your session, you can relax and enjoy your time with your family!
I'll use gentle posing, fun prompts, and playful games to capture your family's unique connection & personality, along with those natural smiles and expressions. Let's turn some authentic moments into heartwarming photos for you to treasure!
Step 3: Photo day!
About two weeks after your session, you'll receive an online gallery of all the best edited photos from your session. You can download photos, share them on social media, and order gorgeous professional-quality prints directly from your gallery.
Step 4: Gallery delivery
Petite sessions include 10 images of your choice, with the option to upgrade if you fall in love with more (and you will!). All other sessions include the full gallery to download.
"I can't recommend Valerie enough as a family & newborn photographer! It can be chaotic managing 5 kiddos for pictures, but as a seasoned mom herself she was able to capture those little moments and go with the flow. I am in love with the newborn photos we received of our sweet little guy!"
-Rachelle V.
Hi there, I'm Valerie!
As a mom of six, I know firsthand how swiftly childhood moments go by! That’s why I’m passionate about capturing real, perfectly imperfect moments, so you can hold on to those sweet memories even after your kids have grown out of them.
With a focus on genuine connections, natural smiles, and letting kids be kids, my goal is to make your session experience stress-free, relaxed, and even (dare I say it?) fun!
