Hello There!

You have arrived to the about me area!!

My name is Valerie. Or Valpack as some like to call me.

I don't have an amazing story as to how I got into photography. But I do have a love for the arts. And photography is one of them.

I've done eight years as a portrait photography.

(2 years at Picture People and 6 years at JcPenney Portraits.)

Three years as a real estate photographer

And 2026 will be my 15th year as a freelance photographer.

I love to keep active. When I'm not taking beautiful photos of people, I train in jiu-jistu and compete in kettlebell competitions.

I also do acro yoga as well.

I love food, the color pink, and scary movies.

(yes scary movies)

But mostly, I love my son, and our cat Athena.

And between those two, my hands are always full with excitement!!

I love to go adventures and see new things and meeting new people!!

I'm also a firm believer that love is love and the world needs more of it.

Think we're a fit? Fill out your information below with any questions so we can make some magic together!!
