"He just is an amazing artist"

 
 

Val is not only a fabulous photographer but also a wonderful person! He’s extremely personable and works great with all people, especially kids. We love having him photograph our family because of his attention to detail and his eye for what makes a beautiful photograph. It was 2001 when we were first photographed by Val. EVERYONE that comes in our home comments on the breathtaking works of art. We have had family portraits done every year for over 20 years with Val. He is a master of lighting, portraits, and freezing moments in a magical and timeless manner. Val has the ability to capture amazing images with children of all ages (not easy to do) You will not find a more talented, creative and experienced portrait photographer anywhere. Val is not only unbelievably talented in his creativity he also is a master of the technical skills needed to create a masterpiece image. He just is an amazing artist. I wouldn’t hire any one else to do our family portraits ever.  ~Brett Baird
