I am Valerie Bolster

The woman behind the camera.

Your Pensacola Beach (FLORIDA) family photographer!

So much to say but I'll keep it simple -

I am on the adventure of motherhood with 3 kids (2 girls + a boy) and my husband of 12 years. I am an extroverted introvert who loves to find the beauty in every situation. I love capturing moments for people - with my main focus being on family, maternity & lifestyle newborn photography. If I had to describe my photography style it would be lively, vibrant, emotional, colorful, candid and fun! I take a minimalistic approach to my sessions as I want the main point of focus to be the beauty that is you, your family and our natural surroundings.

I am based in Pensacola, Florida and travel to the Pensacola Beach, Gulf Breeze, Navarre, Navarre Beach, Milton, Pace and Perdido Key areas. If you are looking for services outside of those please send me a hello so we can discuss!

My current obsession are Fresh 48 Newborn Sessions! And you can book online by following my link below!

Valerie did such a wonderful job with my maternity photos! She’s so sweet, has such great ideas, and is so easy to work with! I highly recommend Valerie for any lifestyle shoots - anything with kids - or really anything you need! She’s really great!

“Valerie is amazing at what she does! Very professional, friendly, easy going and talented. I was picked for a fresh 48 session for my son and ended up buying the whole album because I couldn’t pick just a few!
She captured some amazing first pictures of my newborn and also his big brother.
