Valerie J. Markle, Master Craftsman Photographer is well known for her beautiful, timeless portraiture of children. Her patience with them allows her to capture the uniqueness of each child. Babies have always been a love of hers and watching them grow through childhood has been a blessing. Many tears are brought to the eyes of parents and grandparents as they view their precious images that will allow quickly passing time to stand still. Her portrait skills don't stop at childhood as children grow up too fast. Her 25+ years in photography have afforded her opportunities to see the babies she photographed start families of their own and be a part of their photographic history.
Babies, children, teens, young adults and families are all a welcomed part of the portraiture Valerie enjoys.
