I’ve had the pleasure to work with heather twice now. Once in 2015 for a winter sibling photoshoot and most recently in 2021 she was our wedding photographer at Gloryview Farm, and her work was exceptional both times.
She spent a lot of time ...before the wedding talking to us about what photos were most important to capture, and laying out a timeline of events in the wedding to be sure things went smoothly and no important moments were missed. She also took the location of the wedding and options of where best to shoot the photos into account, and maximized our time by knowing the area and having some ideas in mind before arrival. Our wedding package also included a second photographer who was absolutely amazing as well, which helped to capture multiple angles of the ceremony, and guest reactions as well as our vows. She made some gorgeous custom cards with information for our guests to view our photos and schedules for the guests to keep. You can tell how much love and passion goes into her work in how much she does that is above and beyond for her clients. She even communicated with our event coordinator and the venue owner to arrange time at the venue to do posed photos before the ceremony.
She also has excellent artistic vision in shoots, coming up with poses and how to utilize the space, dress, props etc, and her ability to direct even the most shy/awkward subjects always impresses me. She was a joy to work with, before, during, and after both photoshoots.
From my personal experience, for the work and time she puts in, and the number of quality photos she produces her rates are more than fair. She was timely with finishing edits as well, well within the time frame she has provided us. I was absolutely over the moon with our wedding photos and couldn’t have imagined the day being captured more beautifully. You can trust that you are in good hands!
Here is her blog post from our wedding if you’d like to take a look at the stunning work she did for us!
