Heather is incredibly talented; all of her photos are true works of art! I was fortunate to have her capture my engagement, bridal, and wedding photos, and each experience was better than the last. She is easygoing and fun to work with, making it extremely comfortable to be in front of the camera. My family even commented on how impressed they were with her professionalism and skill throughout our wedding day. There is no better person to trust when it comes to capturing a day as special as your wedding. Having all of those moments to look back on for years to come is priceless. I can’t recommend her enough!!
Heather is an amazing photographer. We just received our engagement pictures and she did a phenomenal job. I cannot wait to see what she does for the wedding!
When you book with HG Ranch Photography you get SO much more than an amazing photographer! Brides - You’ll have a bestie for life, the best hype girl, dress fluffer, bustle & small button do-er and above all - someone that will be in your corner on wedding day to make sure you don’t have to worry about a thing! Grooms - You’ll get a woman who will keep you on track, one who captures you having a great time with all your guys & makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera! HG has captured so many important milestones in our lives & I can not recommend her enough. She always goes above & beyond making sure you leave with photos you can treasure for a lifetime and for that I will forever be grateful♥️
Heather is absolutely the best photographer I have ever worked with! She did an amazing job on our 2 engagement shoots, my bridals & the wedding. She is so kind and makes you feel like you have known each other forever. She always made us feel extra comfortable & special. My husband & I couldn’t have picked a better photographer for our special day. Im forever grateful for Heather & so happy to have found our forever photographer!
Heather is AMAZING! She was such a gem in our wedding planning, the day of our wedding, and even after! She is so accommodating, phenomenal at communication, diligent in the moments she captures, and a source of peace and laughter on your big day. She was not only our photographer, but our advocate at our wedding, making sure any special shot we asked for was taken. My husband and I both agree she was the best investment for our engagement and wedding, and we certainly plan to work with her in the future. Our photos are beautiful and everyone that sees them literally fawns over them. Every moment of our wedding day was captured, from beginning to end. She took photos of us, our wedding party, our families, our guests, my dog, and everything in between! She was worth every penny, and we would choose her time and time again. If you want the most beautiful photos to remember your day by, HG Ranch Photography is the best decision you can make!!
Look no further, Heather is your girl! She is absolutely top notch, in a league of her own. She makes you feel completely comfortable, hypes you up, wrangles your extended family into standing still and smiling, and then turns around and produces gorgeous photos. She’s a seasoned pro and sprinkles in wisdom and tips that make the day fly smoothly by. She also rolls with the punches and is ready for anything, got a ring bear that wants to take his shirt off? No problem. You wanna have donkeys at your cocktail hour? Sounds like fun! She doesn’t just photograph you, she celebrates you during every moment of your big day - something that so clearly comes through in her photos.
There are not enough words to describe the professionalism and beautiful work than Heather has to offer. She is so directional and makes taking pictures (especially with the husband who doesn’t love pictures) SO fun and easy for both of us. The magic she works before, during and after the wedding last a life time. She helps make the moments special but gives you the pictures to relive them over and over again. When I got my gallery back I felt like I was right there reliving every moment without anything being missed or altered. I feel she works really hard to make the photos fit YOU and your moments rather than trying to make you and your moments fit a specific guideline like some photographers tend to do. It’s very organic and she makes you feel like the most beautiful human being in front of the camera. She truly goes above and beyond and by the end of it you’ll feel you have a new friend!! I cannot recommend her more.
Heather was such a great decision for our wedding! Besides taking AMAZING pictures, she helped me make the timeline for our whole day! She captured every important moment so perfectly, and moments that I never even knew happened. We are so fortunate to have such beautiful pictures to remember our wedding day, and if we did it again, we would choose HG every time!
I will never be able to thank Heather enough for the amazing job she did photographing our wedding. She not only went along with our crazy idea to have a surprise wedding with just our parents and siblings but she hyped us up through the whole process! Heather made the photo process fun and enjoyable. Every single picture we received from her is so natural and flawless! Heather is truly one of the sweetest humans and I recommend her for any of your photography needs. If I could give her 20 stars I would!
Heather is truly one of a kind! She is such a light and brings so much joy/positivity to her clients and it shows in her photos. She was such a great help with creating the timeline for the wedding day and just getting to know us as a couple so she knew what we wanted out of the pictures. Looking back through our wedding photos my husband and I were over the moon that we booked with Heather. She captured every picture and more! Our wedding party still talks about how much fun they had with Heather and how quick she was to get the pictures done. We absolutely loved getting to work with her and we hope to do more shoots with her in the future. Thank you so much Heather for capturing our wedding photos. It was the best day and we are so glad you were there for it all!!

Very easy to work with!! Hyped up every moment we shot together! Beautiful, quality moments captured in each picture!
We absolutely LOVED having Heather with HG Ranch Photography for our wedding. We had so much fun at our engagement photo session, she did an amazing job on my bridals, and of course made our wedding a day we will never forget. Heather made us feel comfortable in front of a camera, is the best hype women and will also make the process fun and enjoyable. She truly captured our special day in a way we will cherish forever!! We cannot recommend Heather enough!
Heather was great throughout the ENTIRE process. She makes everything so EASY for everyone. Her photos are beyond anything I could have ever dreamed of or imagined.
I cannot recommend her enough. I cannot wait to use her for other things to come!
HG is a must have for your wedding! She’s the most talented photographer I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and provides the best high quality photos that will each become a treasured favorite and enduring memory. She’s also her clients’ biggest cheerleader, fan and supporter, and instills confidence in every person, every shoot. Her timely and massive galleries will fill the walls of my home – as well as my parents and loved ones – for decades. My husband and I are forever grateful for Heather and all she did to capture every part of our favorite day.
HR Ranch is the absolute best photographer! She is not only professional but she makes the whole experience amazing. She alway goes out of her way to ensure that she captures you special day to perfection. She is so fun to work with and even made my husband, who hate photos, feel extremely comfortable and enjoy having his photo taken. I could not recommend her enough. She is also extremely flexible and accommodating when it comes to timelines and planning dates for bridals and engagements! She is a gem and I look forward to hiring her for all of our photo needs in the future.
Let me tell you about HG!! She is the BEST without a doubt!! She is kind, loving, and cares just as much about your day as you do! She goes above and beyond and truly makes your day so special! She is absolutely incredible to work with and we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer team for our big day! I could go on and on about how much we love her, if you are thinking about booking with her do it!! I could not be more impressed with her work 🤍
Heather is an absolute dream to work with! She made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She is super quick and efficient and gets all the photos done in a timely manner. She wrangled all the groomsmen and made it fun and easy for them. She is super flexible and was able to change our photo timeline due to rain and made it work. She never got frustrated even with my little nephews not cooperating. Heather feels more like a best friend than a photographer when she is at your wedding making sure she captures the posed photos but all the candid photos that you will cherish for years! She truly captured the whole day and didn’t miss a photo! Highly recommend HG Ranch Photography!!!
Heather is absolutely amazing!! She did 3 sessions for us (engagements, bridals, and wedding) and all of them were fantastic! She is so easy to work with and her communication with her customers is top-notch. She makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera and always has amazing ideas when it comes to background, lighting, etc. Not only is HG great during your photo sessions, she does such a good job of delivering your photos in a timely manner via a password protected website. In addition, she is so helpful when it comes to the delivery of your photos! My husband and I had an issue with the post office bending some of our prints that we had ordered after our wedding. I figured I would reach out to Heather just to see if she would be able to help us (since the post office was not) - she was so understanding, was willing to make accomodations for us to have a different delivery method, and the photos we got turned out perfect and not damaged. We were so thankful for that! She cares about her clients and is always willing to go the extra mile. My husband and I are now expecting our first baby and I absolutely can't wait to use HG for our maternity shoot. I cannot recommend HG Ranch Photography enough for any wedding event and more!! Thank you so much, Heather!
Heather is absolutely amazing. I didn’t know where to begin trying to find a photographer for our wedding day. I was blessed to have HG Ranch Photography recommended to me. When I talked to Heather on the phone for the first time..I was sold. She made me feel so comfortable and explained everything I needed to know. When it came to engagements we didn’t know what to expect. She drove 3 hours to us and it was a blast. She made us feel so comfortable and the pictures were nothing less than amazing. Leading up to and on our wedding day, Heather helped in more ways than one. She helped with a timeline, gave advice, lifted us up, kept us calm and so much more. The day after our wedding my husband and I were talking about how everything went, he said “when we have babies, I want her to be our family photographer!” She is such a genuine person that’s easy to relate to and helps make your special moments fun and exciting!
Heather was an amazing photographer and lovely person to work with! When looking for a photographer I was looking for someone with clean natural editing and professionalism. Heather was these and more! She helped out on many other aspects of the wedding by simply answering all of my random planning and advice asking emails. On our wedding day she was a calming presence that helped the day run smooth and after receiving our photos our family and friends can't stop talking about how amazing they are! WE are so thankful and blessed to have had Heather as part of our wedding day and will treasure the memories she captured for us forever!
I literally could not imagine having anyone else shoot such a special time in my life. Heather has been extremely responsive in all communication from the very first time I reached out! Weather tried to set back my engagements & bridals, but Heather rearranged her schedule to ensure I had the best experience! She made sure wedding pictures was one of the least stressful parts of planning. She & her second photographer came in on the day of the wedding and made it a seamless experience! She even stepped in a helped as my stand in coordinator when it seemed like things weren’t flowing in a plan! She was SOOOOO easy to get along with & when all was said and done… she became a part of my girl gang and will be my go to photographer in all future events in my life. I will always recommend her to anyone looking! Money well spent and she truly has me reliving the best day of my life through her beautiful photos!
Need a photographer? LOOK NO FURTHER!!
HG Ranch Photography literally made all of my dreams come true! I cannot say enough amazing things about Heather! She is such a kind and easy person to work with - she's more than a photographer - she will make your wedding day 1,000 times better! Her experience paired with fun personality makes for a genuine laugh and smile from you and your partner when she's behind the camera. Her organizational skills appear effortless and she is such a professional!
We took engagements in the Houston July heat last year (2021) and she had us (who had never taken professional pictures) laughing and smiling and thoroughly enjoying ourselves.
For my bridals, she met me and my mom at a summer camp that holds a special place in her heart too and put me at ease the first time I put on my entire wedding ensemble. She paid attention to all the details I did not even notice. She delivered that gallery quick enough for me to be able to use any images I might have wanted for the wedding.
The wedding - AKA THE REAL REASON TO HIRE HG RANCH PHOTOGRAPHY. Heather was one of the easiest vendors to work with - she answered ALL of my panicked questions with grace and kindness. She kept me on track during the planning process AND told me when I was planning too far in advance. She kept me organized and was so relaxed about everything. She understands the importance of the ceremony as well as the party. She really spends time getting to know you as a couple and then highlights the parts that mean the most to you. On the day of, she was able to get us back on schedule after running 30-45 minutes behind. She got ALL of the pictures we wanted AND MORE! She delivered the gallery with such excitement and love - we cannot say enough amazing things about her.
She has made lifelong clients out of us - we cannot wait to have her capture other important life milestones.
HG Ranch Photography is seriously the BEST ever. Never have I been so comfortable with a photographer before. Heather made it so easy to have fun and genuinely enjoy our time. Engagement were so fun & an adventure and the wedding was even better. I am so happy I found such a great business to support, can’t wait to use you for our future! Thank you so much HG!!
My husband and I decided to elope at Zion National Park in Utah, so when I was looking for a photographer it was really important for us to find someone that was willing to go the extra mile (by go I mean hike....) with us. Heather went above and beyond. She was always timely in her communications. She not only did the research needed to help us find the perfect spot, she even spent a whole day with us hiking and explaining different pictures she could take along the way! Heather was a blast to work with before during and after our wedding. She even sent us a 4 pictures early so we could post them to our social media to let friends and family know we got married! 10 out of 10 would recommend this fabulous woman to take photos for any occasion.
Heather was absolutely amazing! From our engagement photos to the wedding day, she was there with us every step of the way! Our wedding was out of town and she was there on time and ready to go. She stayed throughout the entire thing to capture everything she could! She even stuck it out through 40 mph winds, that was colder than a snow storm. And I will tell anyone if you ever need an awesome hype person Heather is your go to! She can make you feel like a million bucks on your crummiest day! I am BEYOND thankful we chose HG Ranch Photography to capture our wonderful day!
Heather with HG Ranch Photography makes you feel comfortable and takes the stress away in every situation. From engagements to bridals to the wedding day, Heather is your hype girl. It goes with saying that her photos are breathtaking. We recommend Heather without hesitation and will use her again!!
Going into the engagement pictures my fiancé and I had never taken professional pics before so we were a little nervous, Heather immediately made us feel comfortable and by the end of the session she was family to us!
Then came bridals…..I took my bridals at sunset one evening and THE VERY NEXT MORNING I had my whole gallery back…of 280 pictures!
My wedding day Heather killed it! Everything was amazing. She gave me peace of mind about everything! I cannot say enough good things about Heather and her work! We love you HG!!💗
Heather with HG Ranch photography was nothing but AMAZING! Details, details, details. She captured all the beautiful details of our special moments with bridals, engagements and our wedding! Heather is very professional and makes sure her clients feel the most comfortable during every session.
Heather from HG Ranch Photography is talented, so so kind, hilarious, and creative. She was incredible to work with from booking to wedding day. In all the hustle and crazy that wedding day brings, she was always so levelheaded and calm. She got all of the photos we requested and she managed to wrangle a wedding party of 26 and a Cuban family of like 100 in a matter of 20 minutes. Heather’s work is so bold, so colorful and you can’t help but smile and feel warm and fuzzy after reliving your wedding day through the photos. Heather is a talented gal and a photog for life. If you haven’t booked her already, what are you waiting for??
I'm typically not a "review" person, but oh my lanta does HG deserve one! We knew going into our wedding planning that a good, quality photographer was on our NEED list. I grew up in the same county as Heather, so I already knew of her and her business going into it. I also had been following her (read: living vicariously through her) on social media, so I knew how gorgeous her style of photography was already before booking with her. I am not sure what I was expecting before booking with her as far as the whole experience goes, but whatever it was, it pales in comparison to the service that she gives you. She truly cares about you as a person and wants to make sure that you have the best day ever. Her photos honestly speak for themselves- they are stunning and gorgeous and I want to cover my entire house with them. But the thing that takes HG Ranch Photography above and beyond is Heather herself. She is responsive and detail oriented in the set up to the big day. She is also a calming presence in the hustle and bustle, a helping hand (in things that aren't the "responsibility" of a photographer), and honestly one of the BEST hype-women I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I am so glad we were able to work with her on our special day, and I would recommend her to anyone who comes my way!
Heather was so great to work with! She had great communication, she makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera, she handles different groups of people wonderfully (rowdy groomsmen), and her pictures are beautiful!! She was also so much fun to be around on our wedding day and dance floor! Every time I go through our album, I find more and more pictures to love. I recommend Heather to everyone and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!!!
Without hesitation I have nothing but the BEST things to say about Heather. She made my wedding dreams come to life with her photos! She handled our large bridal parties so well and was so willing to work with us. There’s no doubt I would recommend her to anyone and everyone, especially for destination weddings!
I cannot say enough good things about HG Ranch Photography. From start to finish, Heather is amazing to work with. She is always a phone call away to talk through any questions you may have. She is great with the whole wedding party & handles rowdy groomsman with ease. She is so much fun to work with & her pictures are beyond beautiful! I could not have asked for more from our wedding photographer & am so thankful we have our beautiful pictures to look at for the rest of our lives. I HIGHLY recommend using HG Ranch as your photographer for any and everything! You will not be disappointed :)
HG is probably one of the funniest people I've met, and she made our engagements and my bridals such a great experience. Funny, relaxed and makes you feel totally comfortable throughout your experience! HG wasn't just a photographer, she became a great friend throughout this process and we are forever grateful for that! We laughed so much during our sessions with her and that is something that was very important to us. She goes above and beyond your expectations and is great at communication! We will always recommend her to anyone that comes our way!
10/10 would recommended Heather as your wedding photographer! Heather is an amazing photographer that pays attention to detail as well as captures special moments of your day.She is so easy to work with and will make you laugh, smile, and comfortable through out your day like you have known her forever! So happy she captured our special day and our pictures turned our beautiful!
HG Ranch Photography ROCKED our wedding day! She seamlessly worked with our massive wedding party (consisting of 13 bridesmaids and 14 groomsmen) and worked to make sure every single crazy idea I could come up with would be included in our special day. Heather was a dream to work with and took so much stress out of wedding planning all together! Working with her is literally like working with your biggest hype man and there’s never a dull moment. I will be using her for all big life events in the future and would definitely recommend HG Ranch to anyone looking for a wedding photographer that treats you like your best friend. 10/10 highly recommend and cannot say enough good things about Heather as a person or the amazon work that she does!
HG is an incredible photographer and all-around human being. I truly do not have words to explain how wonderful Heather is. She is so professional and fun to work with, and she goes above and beyond for her clients. She shot our wedding in Colorado at a venue she had never been to before, yet she was still able to find the best spots for some STUNNING wedding photos. I highly, highly recommend her to other couples out there! You will be so glad you chose HG Ranch Photography.
When Jerald and I got engaged, we knew we wanted Heather as our photographer for the big day. Not only did she take wonderful pictures of us, she also was organized and made the big day less stressful! We love our wedding/engagement pictures and highly recommend HG Ranch.
Heather & her 2nd photographer, Joy, were awesome & so kind. So glad we picked her to be our wedding photographer! She takes amazing pictures & captures the moment. Flexible with last minute changes. Highly recommend this duo!
HG is one of the easiest and most professional individuals to work with. She has such a fun personality and makes being photographed so easy for couples who have no idea how to be the subject of photos (i.e. me and my husband). The quality of her photos and editing are phenomenal and I would highly recommend her to any of my friends and family.
Where do I begin? HH Ranch Photography by far the very best in her craft! Heather not only took amazing pictures from engagements to reception. She made us all feel like life long friends. I do not say that lightly! We will call on her for ALL future needs without hesitation. She made us all feel so special and gave our bride the most confidence to get thru some of the craziest obstacles that 2020 could bring. We know that we were not her only clients yet I’m the moments she made us feel like we were. Thank you so very much Heather for absolutely everything!!!
Heather, AKA HG Ranch Photography, is beyond talented. We enjoyed working with her for our engagements and on our wedding day. Every photo is magnificent! For our engagements, she drove over an hour out of the city to our property in the middle of a steamy July and took the most incredible and meaningful shots for us. Then, on our wedding day, it rained literal buckets up until about an hour before photos and she didn’t skip a beat. She was SO easy to work with and made it not only fun but calming every time we worked with her. She is quick to respond and genuinely just wants to make your moments as special as possible. We highly recommend her as your photographer!
