Meryl Valerie is a swiss and french destination wedding, fashion, and editorial photographer based in new york city.

with a background in cinema and a life shaped by travel, her work is guided by a deep appreciation for atmosphere, emotional texture, and the visual language of feelings. inspired by years spent moving between cultures, coastlines, and sailing, she is particularly inspired by celebrations that feel transportive, immersive, and full of soul.

she spends her time between new york, LOS ANGELES, the south of france, italy and switzerland. the sun-drenched shores of the riviera and the california coast hold a particular place in her heart. she is endlessly inspired by luminous horizons, lavender skies lingering after dusk, and the kind of beauty that feels like a scene from a film. capturing a love story beneath a star-filled sky in places that feel otherworldly, like hawaii, remains one of her greatest joys.

for meryl, wedding photography is more than documenting a day. it is about creating images that feel cinematic — like fragments of a love story unfolding on screen.
