"What is better than playing on the beach with your family and having gorgeous memories that you can re-live for a lifetime."

"I have already recommended Heather to many friends. I have even heard my husband recommend Heather to one of his friends vacationing in Hawaii. He went into it happy to get photographs as a family but almost with the mentality of it being a chore, or something to check off as we had not had wedding photos the prior year (covid elopement) and it was the first time our blended family would have professional photographs together. He walked away saying he had a great time, it was not what he expected. All of the children did as well. What is better than playing on the beach with your family and having gorgeous memories that you can re-live for a lifetime. I actually cried when I first saw the slideshow and pictures. It far exceeded my expectations, even on a day we didn't know how the weather would unfold."

"There were many happy tears as we viewed these together as a family"

"Thank you for all of the amazing images. Thank you for your editing so beautifully, and for capturing the love we have for each other. There were many happy tears as we viewed these together as a family. We are so grateful. Grateful for your capturing my daughters as they are, the little look that only Scott and I know about them that we love so much in them. Thank you for capturing our deep love for each other and for those two fun girls. And of course, thank you for capturing the love they share as sisters. We are so grateful. Someday when we return to Hawaii, we will call to book another session. My only hope is that it is not another 20 years from now. From the bottom of our hearts, Heather, thank you,"

"After this, there's no way we would hire anyone else!!"

"...I have looked at a lot of photography over the years and am pretty hard to impress and I can say that Heather is the best I've ever seen. She is a natural who knows her stuff and it shows in every single photo. The photos she put together for us are breathtaking... Heather also created a video for us that made everyone laugh and cry again because it was SO PERFECT. She nailed it and it's something we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Her artistry in both photos and videos can't be matched. It's crazy for someone to be this talented! Lucky us that she is in Hawaii practicing her art because we plan to use her photography and videography services for every single milestone in our lives. After this, there's no way we would hire anyone else!!"

"These photos, and even the shoot have created lifetime memories for our family"

"...We couldn't be happier with our photos from Heather, and I'm so happy to recommend her to anyone else that wants to do photos of any capacity, Heather is prepared! She climbed into a freezing cold pool with me for over an hour, persevering to really give me what I wanted. A true artist...and the photos came out even better than I could have imagined. Not only that, but Heather charmed my spirited 3 year old and drew her out of her shell super quick, capturing amazing smiling, laughing and general mischief from her. My husband, who is usually very critical of photos of himself is so so happy with how our shoot came out and were excited to print them. I will absolutely be hiring Heather again. These photos, and even the shoot have created lifetime memories for our family!!!"
