"We got to do everything in a way that was authentic to who we are and that is such a freeing feeling that is completely priceless. Every time I come back to our gallery to add more to my favorites, I feel that gratitude all over again."

Welcome to Your Nature Wedding!

Don't let planning a wedding feel like a chore.

Getting married and the planning that comes along with it shouldn't feel difficult or stressful. It’s important to feel that you and your partner are making the best decision for your elopement day.

When you choose me as your elopement photographer, you’ll walk away with beautiful photographs—and the confidence that you trusted the right person with your day.

a day where you can
truly be 
Envision 
YOURSELF
and have a
 not-so-average wedding! 

IN TODAY'S WORLD -- 

it isn't reasonable -- nor should it be expected -- for many people to have large weddings.

Heather is not only an incredibly gifted photographer and a seasoned pro – she is also a kind, thoughtful and empathetic person who is truly a joy to be around. From the beginning, she took the time to get to know us as a couple and understand our vision. Heather invested time in calls with us, sent us a thorough questionnaire and elopement guide, thoughtful location choices, and carefully reviewed our Pinterest board, genuinely showing curiosity and care about what mattered most to us throughout the entire process.

She has a rare ability to zoom out and understand the overall vibe we wanted to create, while also zooming in to capture subtle moments and meaningful details. Heather is skilled and professional – she knows how to maximize every moment and get the best shots quickly to make the most of such a special day, and she does it in such a human way; we never felt rushed, we just knew we were getting a ton of great shots. And Heather didn’t just deliver the shots we asked for - she gave us so many gorgeous, unexpected moments and angles that we’ll treasure forever.

Hey, it's me!

Hi I'm Heather, your friendly guide for an exciting elopement day! It's truly an honor to be a photographer for these moments. I would like to give the opportunity for couples to create their own day without feeling confined by what is considered to be 'the norm' when it comes to planning a wedding.

I want couples to feel right about the choice they made to have a smaller wedding day. As someone who started out photographing the more traditional side of weddings, once I decided to make my move to California I wanted my business to reflect more of my true personality. California offers so many landscapes varieties, and I want couples to feel inspired by nature.

Every couple is unique, which is why I take the time to get to know you, ensuring that your photos authentically reflect who you are. Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and how you feel matters deeply to me. At the end of the day, of course I want us to get nice photos, but more importantley I want you to also feel good about your decisions. Let me be your photographer, your guide, your editor, and your friendly adventure buddy as we embark on this unforgettable journey together! 

I am a follower of Leave No Trace and proud to help educate couples on the importance of honoring these guidelines.

"Heather is an excellent photographer and I am so glad that I found her for my wedding! She was communicative about every single step and listened to everything I had to say. She really brought two mundane venues to life with her vision. We are really so fortunate to have had the chance to work with her on our engagement shoot and wedding. Just look at our pictures! They speak volumes. It isn’t every day that you can find someone with such great talent who is also a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much for everything Heather! We will be recommending you to everyone we know!"

"We went on an EPIC adventure with Heather & Mike... the photos my partner & I received were PHENOMENAL!! OBSESSED!! We did photos in front of a waterfall and had so much fun hiking while they captured our day. We love the outdoors and really wanted the photos to reflect who we are as a couple. They made a perfect plan for us and now we have these incredible memories to look back on. And to top it off they also provided snacks and beverages to indulge. This really was an incredible experience. Heather & Mike are so kind, fun & talented; I can’t say enough good things about them & their work. I highly recommend using Seeking Venture Photography." 

-Erin & Jeff

"Heather is amazing! Not only is she a talented photographer, but she is beyond friendly and so easy to work with. She genuinely cares about her clients and makes everyone feel so at ease. During my son's wedding, our guests hardly knew she was there, yet any time I saw a photo opportunity and thought "what a nice picture", Heather was already there with her camera. She captured every aspect of the wedding and reception. She suggested wonderful and creative shots. The entire bridal party had so much fun taking pictures with her! Most importantly though, her photos are GORGEOUS! Better than we even hoped. I could not be happier with the end result! THANK YOU HEATHER! "
