Hi, I’m Valette!
I am a photographer providing custom portrait sessions in Anchorage, Alaska. Your comfort is my main concern, and I can’t wait to work with you.
When was the last time you felt worthy of time, energy and money?
I believe that you should exist in pictures, and that you don’t need an excuse to celebrate yourself. I believe that beauty exists in everyone, and my job is to provide you proof of that in photographs. I promise you a fun and relaxing experience with the best photos you’ve ever seen of yourself.
You are worthy at every step in your journey. I want to help you celebrate who you are right now and capture your confidence so that you can become your own motivator.
Your Custom Portrait Session
Because sessions are fully customized to your needs and desires, exact pricing will vary. Sessions start at $290, images start at $200, and collections start at $1200. Most clients spend about $2000 on their session and images.
When you book a custom portrait session with me, I’ll guide you through the entire process, start to finish.
What to expect
Initial consultation
The consultation is a chance for you to learn more about me and the process, and for me to get to know you and understand the vision you have for your session. We’ll talk about your personal style and I will help you choose the outfits from your closet that will photograph the best.
Professional hair and makeup styling
The day of your photoshoot, you simply show up with clean, dry face and hair. My styling team will give shape and add volume to your beautiful tresses and ensure your makeup is photo-ready.
Guided photoshoot
It’s not your job to be photogenic! It’s my job to find your best angles and guide you through a series of expressions that best captures your personality and tells your story through beautiful photos.
Image reveal and ordering session
I will show you the images either right after your session or at a scheduled date shortly after. You will be able to select the images you want to take home and determine the level of retouching
Professional retouching
Every image you select is retouched to let your personality and beauty shine. This includes color correction, background cleanup, and blemish removal to the level you are most comfortable with.
Digital images & prints
I believe in the power of a physical print to help you feel amazing about yourself. With the purchase of every digital file you also receive its matching matted print.
