Portraits, Narrabeen

I did a lot of research before I chose Valent and I'm extremely happy the result. Thanks for your time, professional guidance, and exceptional advice for the photos.

Your studio has been uniquely constructed to ensure your photos are perfect and your skill with the camera is in my opinion unsurpassed.

Event, Rose Bay

Valent was very professional, arriving on time and very friendly. He takes his photography very seriously and captures each photo at its best - the light, angle and arrangement.

My friend recommended I speak to Valent. I was never comfortable in front of the camera, so I was very apprehensive, certain that I wouldn't know what to do, how to smile, or what to wear.

The photo shootings was great on the wedding day for me and Carey. We felt relaxed during the photo shooting because Valent find his way to capture the perfect picture, not us acting to form the perfect picture.

Valent meets beyound our expectations, we didn't expect the photos turn out to be this great,

Thank you Valent and Caroline !!!

Family Portraits, Carlingford

I strongly recommend Valent Lau to anyone looking for a professional photographer to capture their memories. I had both maternity and family photos taken by him, and absolutely love the photographs he produced.

Valent has a real talent for photography, he pays attention to small details so he can take perfect pictures. His professionalism is second to none.

Thank you so much for our beautiful pictures. I'm so glad those priceless memories have been captured forever.
