HELLO, I'M HEATHER

I was born and raised in beautiful Alpena, Michigan. Left for almost 20 years and have returned to put my roots down here.

I am a single mom to three beautiful girls; Blake, Willow & Penelope, who keep my life extra busy- just the way I like it. I am blessed to have an amazing family and support system who help with my children. Without them, none of this would be possible!

I have a degree in photojournalist from Central Michigan University. I started my own business in 2015 so I could live the dream of raising my own children and doing what I love.

I have been taking photographs for as long as I can remember, and would love to share my passion with you. I am most passionate about capturing real moments, true feelings, and all the “in the moment” interaction. Whether that is laughing, crying, singing, dancing, hugging, or kissing... I want you in your natural state because realness is the best.

The biggest compliment I could receive is you looking at your photos and saying, "That is us, she really captured us." I want everyone to look and feel their best, so I also love to help with styling suggestions. I am here to connect with you, assist in whatever way I can, and most importantly take some amazing photos of you!

"Life is too short to do the things you don't love doing."
