About Valérie, in her own words…
Photography changed my life. The day I picked up a camera, I became a storyteller. I learned to see the extraordinary in everyday life. And my passion for documenting humankind has led me to find beauty in the most unlikely places. As a visual storyteller, photographic images are how I tell these stories. Chasing light is my desire, my obsession, my addiction.
