Val is incredible!! We worked with her for our engagement photos on Notre Dame's campus this past fall. Given that we live out of town, we greatly appreciated her flexibility and responsiveness throughout the planning process. During the engagement shoot, she quickly put us at ease, seamlessly talked us through poses/prompts, and overall facilitated a fun, memorable morning! She even had preview photos ready within a day, and they captured our relationship so beautifully! Val is an absolute joy to work with, we cannot recommend her enough.

From our our very first conversation, Valerie was incredibly attentive and invested in learning about us and what we envisioned for our wedding day. We got to meet Val at our engagement session -- and she made that session so much fun! Val immediately made us feel comfortable being in front of the camera. She truly is your hype woman and I felt so supported by her throughout the wedding planning process, and especially during our wedding day. Val was communicative, responsive, and quick to adapt to any last minute changes we had to make during our day. I was so relaxed knowing that I could count on her -- she shows up for you and puts her heart and soul into capturing every detail, big or small, of your day.

I highly, highly recommend Val!! She will make you feel beautiful, natural, and comfortable in front of the camera. And her work truly speaks for itself! I cannot wait to have these amazing photos for a lifetime -- we are obsessed!

100% I would recommend Valerie Michele Photography as your photographer for any special occasion. Val just did my wedding a few weeks ago and she was so professional and personable. From the very beginning she was very understanding and really desired to help us create the day that my wife and I wanted. What I also appreciated was how very detail oriented she was and her plethora of valuable resources and information to help in times when you as the client are unsure. Not to mention, her talent to take photos that capture a lot of life and love. You cannot go wrong choosing her as your photographer.
