Graciela In the Media
As a 10+ year Boudoir Photographer and Personal Branding Photographer in Fort Lauderdale, I’ve had the good fortune of being featured in the media on a number of occasions. It’s super exciting! I decided to round up as many of the interviews and awards as I could find and put them all in one blog post. I did this partly for your convenience, dear reader; and partly for me, because it’s good to remember; but mostly because of the legacy I’d like to leave, best described by Emily Dickenson:
If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain; If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain, Or help one fainting robin Unto his nest again, I shall not live in vain.
Emily Dickenson
If I were to have a tag line, I suppose it would be “Become Who You’ve Always Been.” Everyone who comes to me wants to celebrate something or transform something - level up or level out, there’s a BECOMING that happens. I hope these features help you get to know me. Because that’s an important part of photography.
TLC’s I Am Jazz
Super exciting day at the studio! My appearance on TLC’s I Am Jazz was such a great experience. Mom did a boudoir shoot and you can check out all the details in the full blog post here.

NBC 6 - In the Mix
Just having celebrated the 5-year anniversary of the Excuse Me, That’s My Seat Conference, it has been so rewarding to be part of the founding team responsible for the programming (and lots of other stuff!). This was a fun feature on NBC 6’s In the Mix show.
Living In Oakland Park
I chose the City of Oakland Park for my studio home several years ago and I absolutely love it. It was such a pleasure being featured by the Living In Oakland Park publication. Check out the article, Graciela Valdes Fine Art Photographer: An Artist With a Passion For People.
