Making moment's last! I specifically specialize in Portraiture and take pictures predominately of Families, Headshots, and Children. I didn't do Weddings in the past, because I was working full-time jobs and didn't have the time to do so. For 2019, I am working full time as a photographer of my own business, and am a full-time mama as well. Still busy but since I'm home being a mom, I'm able to prioritize Weddings now and can't wait! I would consider myself very well experienced in photography with over 10 years of experience, and fairly "new" in weddings. I've shot 1 of 3 weddings for this summer of 2019 and had to sadly decline 2 weddings this summer. As of 7/11/2019 I've in total photographed 4 full weddings,4 elopements, another 2 full-Weddings coming up, and have been a second-shooter for 2 Weddings. I've also photographed various types of events, big and small. From company parties to Winery events to Birthdays, and more. I've photographed 10+ Engagement sessions.

About my work ethic and work style: The shooting part: I take A LOT of photos, and narrow down the to the best. I photograph using a Canon 5d mark 4 with several portraits and wide angle lenses. I have a backup camera canon 50d that I bring with me to Weddings , or the second shooter may use that one if there is a need/want for a second shooter. I've never had to cancel or not show to a photo job ever, and especially at Wedding. (LUCKILY, I know things happen sometimes. ) However, worse comes to worst - I do have a lot of Photographers I can refer to you if that's the case and will personally reach out to them if wanted. The last thing I want its to add stress and so I try to adapt and be very thoughtful in my decisions as your photographer I take it seriously. I offer free phone consultations and can meet in person after so to elaborate on the details. This is important and HIGHLY recommend you while you're searching for your Photographer to interview them. I'm extremely happy to answer any question/concerns. In these interviews, I ask questions about you and your partner which helps that we all get familiar with each other since, I'll be getting all up in your face with my camera - getting beautiful close-ups and all. :-P I have zoom lenses, don't worry I usually keep my distance as much as possible. But one question I ask the couple is how much do you want me in the Wedding, for ex. I will always be respectful and try not to block anyone off at least not for long, or unless I have to. I'm usually moving around a lot and will walk behind the crowd in a way that doesn't disrupt your beautiful wedding. When you have your first dance, do you want me on the dance floor in and out and getting close/ far shots? or just keep in the side and not to disrupt at all. I really am fine doing either one, however, I've noticed my particular Bride & Groom's like me to be more on the side and not to make them take too many extra photos of them. Some care to get more of the family than themselves. Etc, so you see there's a lot to think about when choosing your Photographer. It's not just about getting beautiful photos, it's about a beautiful experience. I want to make it as amazing as possible so let's chat! Email me at HG@heathergravesphotography.com
