MEET THE GIRL BEHIND THE CAMERA!
HEY Y'ALL, I'M VAL!
I'm a photographer based in Warrenton, Virginia. I'm in love with capturing love stories, so I mostly take photos of couples and families. My style is a mixture of things; moody, filmy, but light at the same time.
I find the most joy in capturing photos in a storytelling way; keeping those genuine laughs; those special moments shared as family; children running around and enjoying themselves; all of it. Mostly, I aim to capture a couple's connection in photographs. My goal is for you to feel emotion through your photos.
My sessions are very laid back. We all know most people (especially kids) aren't always comfortable in front of the camera, so why push it? My goal is to ease the anxiety and worry from all those parents out there. Let's just have good time and watch the magic happen, with the most genuine you!
Sincerely,
A fellow mama and wife <3

my Photography
 
Hi! I am so glad that you're here :)
I wanted to share with you all a little bit about my photography. I love shooting more candid, storytelling shots. I want to capture genuine reactions in your photos.
My style is artsy. I do add grain to my images. I do love warmer tones, and more neutrals. If you love the colors you see in my images then white and tans will be your best bet!
