About Heather


My Approach

I photograph weddings in a candid, relaxed style. Instead of heavy posing, I focus on helping couples feel comfortable so their photos reflect what the day actually felt like.


The Kind of Weddings I Love

I’m especially drawn to chill weddings, low stress ceremonies where couples care more about meaningful moments than a big production. When people feel relaxed and present, the best photos happen naturally.


What It's Like to Work With Me

Couples often tell me they were worried about feeling awkward in photos, but once they realize I’m paying attention to the little details and guiding when needed, they relax quickly. That’s when the most genuine moments appear.
