Profile
Valerie is an editorial and fine art photographer, originally from Portugal and currently based in Norwich, UK. She found her love for all things artistic in 2013 but it was Photography that really made her want to explore it further as an academic.
After moving to Cambridge, UK, Valerie spent the next 4 years working with collaborators in and around the city, graduating with Honours from a Film and Television Production Degree, before expanding her pursuit of love for Art in Manchester for 2 years.
First specialising in portrait and fashion photography and later developing into fine art, Valerie's dreamy and feminine style has found its many forms throughout the years making versatile appearances and growing with her as she finds her place in a world of artists.
Valerie has collaborated with artists across different scenes from Fashion (Designers, Hairstylists, MUA, Models and Model Agencies) to Theatre/ Cinema (Show Promotion/ Acting Photography) and most recently Weddings.
In the past 2 years she's been the founder of "Star Crossed Lovers" a series of Photography Themed Events with the goal of creating a safe space for creatives of the photography scene to come together, collaborate and network, having organised two editions and looking to expand them to the public in the years to come.
In the near future, Valerie is looking to continue her work with "Star Crossed Lovers", extend her own personal work to Boudoir Photography, hoping to create a safe space for female identifying clients to find their best selves in front of her lens and pursuing their personal journeys of self-love with the help of her work, as well as keep collaborating with brands, models and businesses around the UK and the world.
