“We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and call it love”

Dr Seuss

hi I’m val,

I am a wedding, events and family photographer based in Melbourne, Victoria.

I love hearing peoples’ stories and how they came to meet their special someone. All of us have different journeys and it gives me so much joy to help you capture these special once-in-a-lifetime moments.

My approach is relaxed and very easy going. Most of all, I love getting to meet new people and exchanging stories.

What you can expect:

Lots of laughs
Fun, easy and relaxed photoshoot
Collaborative experience (no photo idea is too silly)
Professional and easy communication.

If you like what you’re hearing, have a look at past weddings, view packages or better yet, get in touch,

Testimonials

Val is easily the best person to have on photoshoots that truly matter. She's been present at most of our family's big moments - engagement, wedding, and signing ceremony. She really makes time to get to know us before the shoot, so she is able to capture the essence and spirit of who we are. We felt so comfortable and at ease in an instant. She'll walk through mud and climb rocks to get the best shot. She's got the best eye and spontaneity - when she sees the best backdrop or the perfect lighting, she'll go for it. And if you're game, the results are beyond your imagination.

The photos are BEYOND INCREDIBLE!! I think we’re all aware of how sad I was that it was raining on our wedding day but the photos are literally more perfect than I could have ever dreamed of and I’m so happy. We were only expecting like 5 shots as a sneak peak but you put through so many and they’re all so goood! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH

Tanisha and Jerry

Val is one amazing photographer. She is personable and super approachable. Even though my fiancé and I were (so very) awkward in front of the camera, we felt incredibly comfortable and we had so much fun on the day! We loved every photo.

Lauren and Harry

Valerie is an incredibly talented photographer. She captured our big day with dedication to the big picture (pun intended) to the minute details. The photos really captured the essence of who we are and nothing important was forgotten. She was really great at directing us while allowing us to pose with naturally! Finally, she supplied our edited photos quickly and with great attention to technical detail.

David and Jess Woon

The photos we received from Val were beyond what we ever imagined! The process was intentionally made to be wonderful for us, and the result was that we looked our best in every single picture. She allowed us relax, offered just a touch of direction, and provided such beautiful images. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to others time and time again! Her manner and attention to detail is incredibly professional, and precisely what you need to keep your mind at ease before your special day.
