Heidi was a dream to work with. We really enjoyed working with Heidi throughout the entire engagement/wedding process. Heidi makes everything so relaxed and comforting. She is trul...
y an artist and has such an amazing knack for catching such beautiful moments throughout such a chaotic day. If you are on the fence about hiring Heidi as a vendor for your perfect day, look no further and hire her! You will not regret it. We couldn’t have imagined our special day without her.
I couldn’t have asked for better photographers for our wedding on 10/14/22! Heidi and Garrett were absolutely amazing and simply a joy to work with! They are extremely professional...
, personable, and they truly value their couples! Heidi did our engagement photos as well, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She has a way of making you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and knows how to capture candid moments perfectly. Prior to the wedding, Heidi even made timeline recommendations to help the day run smoothly, and these little changes helped a ton in making our wedding day perfect! I would recommend Heidi Elyse Photography over and over and over again to anyone planning a wedding!
Heidi is AMAZING! She captured the entire day/night beautifully! So great and fun to be around! And when we got the pictures back I was literally lost for words. They were amazing....
She loves what she does and it shows through her work!
Heidi took our engagement and day of wedding photos. She is such a joy to work with! Heidi is amazing at capturing candid moments and making you feel/look natural in the more posed...
photos. Not many photographers focus on the “realness” of how things look, but this is something that she practices. This was one of the many compliments I received about my photos - how natural they looked! We couldn’t be happier with our photos. If you’re looking for an amazing photographer with a cool, creative style.. Heidi is your gal!!
Heidi took our engagement photos almost 5 years ago & she was incredible then. Recently she took our family photos after we had a baby, and they were treasures. She has only gotten...
better since. Watching Heidi grow, and follow her heart and develop her style has been so much fun. She is SO creative and talented and LOVELY to be around. I’ve never been more comfortable around a photographer, and I know that’s true for everyone she works with. She is FUN, she is VIBRANT and her photos are timeless and yet somehow different and stylish. I can’t say enough good things about her.
I’m also a wedding vendor & I’ve worked weddings with her. From a vendor standpoint, she’s a great team player and brings out the best in every vendor. As a bride, she’s definitely someone you’d want on your team and she’d be a blessing to everyone involved, especially you. We love Heidi!
Heidi is photographing our September ‘22 wedding and I could not be more thrilled! We shot our engagement session together last weekend (psst- this is included in your wedding pack...
age, how cool is that?) and we had SO. MUCH. FUN. She put so much care and detail in to the shoot, working lighting, adding fun props, and helping with our outfits. She drove home after the shoot and we had sneak peeks in our inbox THAT SAME NIGHT, and I am so in love! Her level of talent is truly incredible, I am counting down the days to our wedding just for the photos alone. :) can’t wait to leave another 5 star review!
Heidi is the best!!!
Heidi was the best to work with! She is so friendly, detail oriented, very understanding of what I wanted (better than than I did), and made sure that our wedding day went without ...
a single worry. Not only that but her creativity and the way she directed us how to pose came seamlessly together to provide the wedding album of our dream!!
Heidi is literally the BEST. She makes you feel so comfortable and you never feel like your “posing”. Her pictures are authentic and capture real emotion!!! And you’ll have SO much...
fun taking them with her. She kept everyone on track for our wedding day and on time. She captured the emotions of others that I will cherish forever and the quality of her edits/photos is unreal. I knew that a photographer was going to be one of the most important wedding decisions, and I cannot have dreamed of using anyone else!!! I would recommend Heidi to anyone!
Heidi is awesome. She creates a relationship with you and understands the goal of the photos for you. The photos turned out awesome and better than we could’ve imagined!
Heidi is SO much more than just an incredible photographer (which she is!!!) -- she is an incredible photographer who cares deeply for her clients. Heidi takes the time to get to ...
know each of her clients and hear their stories so that she can best serve them. Heidi is a great communicator, and she is so easy to work with. Her passion for serving others shines through all that she does, and her pictures and style are SO beautiful!!
We love Heidi!!

I discovered Heidi on Instagram after going through a rabbit hole of photographers to find the perfect choice for our wedding, and I am SO glad I did. She is the best of the best, ...
and did everything she could to make sure our day was captured perfectly. She even showed up an hour and a half early to make sure she had time to get the shots she thought were important. She had so many amazing ideas for really cool shots - we cannot stop looking at our photos! I was super nervous to find a photographer I trusted since your pictures are one of the only things from the big day that lasts after the reception is over, but Heidi could not have been a better choice. The sweet moments she captured were worth every penny and more. Not to mention she is a gem to work with and danced with us on the dance floor at the reception! Thank you Heidi!
As soon as I began my search for a wedding photographer, I was referred to Heidi through one of my bridesmaids who is also a photographer. We seriously could not have chosen any be...
tter than working with her. She is plain & simple the most easy-to-work-with, outgoing, kind person who consistently delivers such STUNNING work. Every photo is so full of the most genuine emotion, warmth and passion. They portray our most special day 110% perfectly. Needless to say, we're obsessed with our entire wedding album and will cherish the photos forever. Thank you x a billion, Heidi, we love you!
Heidi is amazing! My husband and I first hired her for our post-elopement reception that she captured so beautifully. She wasn't intrusive and I barely noticed her walking around t...
o take photos all evening long. When we got our photos back from her, it was like reliving that night all over again. She photographed everything from the small details and decor to the big moments of cake-cutting and socializing with our guests. Since then, we've hired Heidi for a family session, and I can't wait until she's able to document more big moments in our life. WE LOVE YOU, HEIDI.
