Two weeks before your session, you’ll receive a questionnaire to gather confirm the logistics and gather the details you value most.

LOVE NOTES

  • AMANDA + JAMES

    Heather was truly amazing. From the moment we met her we knew sharing our wedding day with her would be a breeze! She was so responsive, helpful, and just the sweetest person to work with. Starting with our engagement session, Heather was easygoing and the whole experience felt so natural. We loved her style and she captured exactly what we were looking for!

    Then on our wedding day, Heather was exactly the calming presence I needed! It’s an emotionally overwhelming day but she made everything seamless. Even my makeup artist commented on how amazing and positive she was! We are so happy with our photos and the extra touches heather provided along the way made it all the more special. I like to consider her a friend and honestly can’t recommend her enough!!

  • HEATHER + THOMAS

    From beginning to end Heather has been extremely supportive, professional and to summarise the best you could find throughout the wedding process.

    She helped guide us through planning our vision, in-person, through mood-boards and via calls. We couldn’t have asked for better support, guidance and kind/calming energy throughout. She always was able to provide a back up plan to everything needed and reassured along the way. We never felt a question wouldn’t be answered or without passion.

    Heather truly is one of the best decisions we ever made in wedding planning and if we were to do it all again she would be the top of the picks! Thank you Heather for making not just the day super memorable to look back on but also bringing a happiness to the whole process. We truly couldn’t be more grateful for all of your work! Thank you.

  • KATIE + IAN

    We couldn't recommend Heather enough as a wedding photographer. She was such a lovely, positive presence on our day, and the photos were more amazing than we could ever have hoped for. From the beginning she was approachable, friendly, and made the whole process really easy. We loved her photography style, and she had the ideal balance of bringing her own ideas as some of our own. Our friends and family were continually telling us how lovely Heather was on the day, and we couldn't be happier with our photos!

  • DARCY + TERRIS

    Heather did our wedding photos for our elopement last year and she went above and beyond for us, replying to our emails, going to look at the location for us and creating mood boards to envision the day. Heather was super professional but also so lovely, easy to get on with and made us feel so comfortable as two people who don’t really take pictures together! The pictures themselves were everything and more, we love them so much and are forever grateful she was able to be part of our day! We can’t recommend her enough.

  • IZZY + EUAN

    It was an absolute delight having Heather as our wedding photographer. We had a small legal ceremony in Edinburgh and Heather was with us to capture all the most important moments before, during and after. Heather has such a great eye for small details and little moments throughout the day - which she captured beautifully in our photos.

    We felt so relaxed and comfortable in Heather’s presence- she took her time and made sure everything felt right for us.

    We are so happy with our photos- thank you Heather! Xx
