About me…
Hey, I’m Heather— a mom of five, a photographer, an artist, and a firm believer that life is better with good music playing in the background. My playlists make absolutely no sense—hard rock, metal, country, Christian, blues, oldies….sometimes all in the same editing session…and somehow it works. I also happen to be the wife of the most badass welder you’ll ever meet—my husband, a true blue-collar rockstar who can build anything out of steel and somehow still manages to juggle a diaper change, an emotional meltdown, or whatever the kids throw at us. We’re a pretty wild, busy team, and everyday is an adventure.
I’m the person who notices the way the light hits a moment right before sunset, loves a last minute road trip, lives on coffee, and gets way too excited while editing your galleries and designing your albums—usually with music turned up a little too high.
When I am not behind the camera or editing, I’m probably taking a bath to escape my kids for a minute of peace—my unofficial reset button. I’m also basically an Uber driver to my kids at this point…just without the fancy app. My oldest is working now, and the rest are in sports and activities, so I spend a lot of time shuttling, cheering, and repeating “be ready in 5 minutes,” multiple times a day.
In my free time (what’s that?…haha,) I love being outdoors with my husband and kids—hiking, fishing, camping, and just soaking up all the kind of chaos I know I’ll miss one day. I also really enjoy painting and chalk pastels.
Photography and art are both just different ways I tell stories. I love capturing real connection..the kind you don’t stage or force. The messy, funny, tender, blink-and-you-miss-it kind of moments that actually matter most.
If you’re here I am already excited—because I can’t wait to turn your real-life moments into art you get to keep forever.

P.S. These are just some real, raw snapshots of me and my favorite people. No fancy lighting, no professional posing, just us being us. Because at the end of the day, that’s what I am here for—real, honest, imperfect moments that make up a beautiful life.
