I'm Heather, a nationally published & award-winning wedding and portrait photojournalist based near Williamsburg, VA in Hampton Roads.
What makes me different is I truly love to capture authentic moments as they happen - more recently referred to as lifestyle photography.
My favorite photos are storytelling moments filled with happiness & love.
I'm also a sucker for gorgeous light, sunsets, trees, and ALL naturally beautiful outdoor settings.
I'm a bit of a romantic and LOVE catching those in between funny moments when no one thinks I'm watching.

Heather works closely with you to ensure you get gorgeous storytelling images of this once in a lifetime moment.
With almost 20 years of professional experience, Heather is as much of an experienced guide as she is a photographer.
I see myself as more than a photographer.
I want the day to go smoothly too, so I can get happy pictures!
So I step in & help even with non-photo related things like busseling and timelines.
Often, I'm the only one helping the bride before & during the preparations that has 'done this before' and I love being able to help!

My family sessions primarily take place outdoors, at the location of your choosing (and I have lots of suggestions too).
I bring lights, an assistant, and send along guides on what to wear and how to prepare your kids for a fun session so we can get a few "smiling for the camera" and then focus on creating (and capturing) priceless moments filled with laughter.
Your family photos will be treasured by you and future generations as a priceless family heirloom, and it may be years before you can fit a family session into your busy schedule again.

Stay in the comfort of your home with your new bundle of joy with an in home newborn session!
With a variety of backgrounds, props, and small professional lighting, I can easily set up in the comfort of your living room or nursery for studio-style and lifestyle pictures.
Life gets busy, and the best thing we have to remember the moments in our lives are our photos, I would love to help you capture yours!
Heather showed up to our house with a full studio setup and we actually learned some soothing strategies from watching her during the photo shoot!

Unlike the traditional high school senior photographer, my portraits take place mostly outdoors rather than inside a studio.
We get a few of the traditional "smiling for the camera" and then focus most of our time on capturing creative AUTHENTIC portraits.
From sports to your personal fashion style, I want to capture YOU in this moment in your life.
