It’s hard to find the words to express my feelings about Heather and her company, Never There Yet photography. If you are looking for the most natural, artistic, authentic, personal, and gorgeous wedding photography that you can possibly find, ...BOOK HER IMMEDIATELY! In my opinion, the quality of Heather’s work is unparalleled, and her warm presence, attention to detail, and natural command of her craft truly helped to make our wedding day the best day of our lives.
We got married this past Sunday 4/28/19 at Flowerfield. We had a twilight ceremony, and Heather was there from morning until the very end, when my family and I were leaving the venue (around 10pm). By noon today (Tuesday, and far less than 48 hours after she left our wedding), Heather sent us a link to over 300 edited “sneak peek” photos, each more beautiful than the next. Our families have told us that they are crying over how absolutely perfect our pictures are. Heather is not only a wedding photographer - she is truly an artist. I have NO idea how I will pick out pictures for an album, as I’m in love with every single one!
Photography was the number one most important vendor for me when planning our wedding, and I was dead set on natural, authentic, light and airy, artistic, and personal photos that truly captured the love in the room on our wedding day. I must have looked at dozens of Long Island-based vendors and just could not find what I wanted. After sampling another photographer for our engagement photos and feeling extremely underwhelmed by the experience, photographer, and photos, I was worried that what I was looking for just didn’t exist within our location and price range. Shortly after, I saw Heather’s booth at a wedding showcase. After speaking with Heather and looking at her photos, my mom and I looked at each other and basically knew we had found the one.
Heather’s assistant Adrienne shot our engagement party last May, and Heather edited the photos herself. As soon as I saw those pictures (which I got back less than a week after our party!), I 100% knew that we had made the right choice. In the months leading up to our wedding, Heather was communicative, so warm and personable, and the calmest and most even-keeled presence. I felt that I could call, email and text her with any question, big or small...and I definitely did so! We spoke several times in the weeks leading up to the wedding, and I shared shot lists, sample pictures, and more with her, and she was so receptive and incredibly open to hearing exactly what I wanted.
On the day of the wedding, both she and Adrienne (who was our second shooter) were everything I could have dreamed of and more. My husband (ahh!) does not love taking pictures, and I shared with Heather that I didn’t want anything too staged or inorganic, as that’s not our style. She gave us gentle guidance and posed us in ways where we looked like the best and most natural version of ourselves, and captured tons of candids, which was very important to me. My husband and I have HUGE smiles in every picture! We had a big bridal party and we have a pretty sizable extended family, and Heather and Adrienne both handled every single interaction with grace, poise, endless patience, good humor, and, of course, exquisite skill. My dad compared their precision and attention to detail to a special ops mission -- they were laser-focused and captured every single thing I had asked for, and much more, while sticking to the scheduled timing and keeping everything moving and everyone happy. They also worked seamlessly with our videographer, bridal attendant, and every person and vendor they encountered. I’ve thanked them both multiple times, but truly can’t put into words how absolutely perfectly they captured our wedding day.
As a further testament to Heather’s work, my sister is getting married this June and is having Heather as her photographer, too! I truly cannot recommend Heather and Never There Yet photography enough, and feel incredibly lucky that I found her. Book her, book her, book her - you will NOT regret it!
