Heather was great. The pictures were awesome, she was very professional before, during and after the wedding, yet she was fun and personable during the wedding. My guest remarked that she was very pleasant and nice. She drove more than a couple hours for our event and she was there all day. I am thoroughly impressed with her work and professionalism.

She provides the story of your big day through the photos she takes. And their will be photos included of moments on your big day that you didn't realize had even occurred! Heather is very professional and very people-friendly.

Highly recommended! I loved the personal style of Heather Hughes Photography on focusing on the ad-hoc moments of our special day and not posing for pictures (I'm not photogenic at all). During the entire day of the wedding, I hardly noticed they were there and the pictures turned out beautiful!

Heather was absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anyone. For all the money spent on a wedding, this is one investment that will last a lifetime. Heather was personable, interested in our story and in what we wanted our wedding day to be, and flexible in meeting our needs. On our wedding day she captured everything, yet was hardly noticed. And now the best part -we absolutely love our pictures!! The day we got them, we looked at them over and over and over again. Only one word came to mind - WOW. She truly captured the feel of the day and gave us a priceless gift - the ability to re-live our magical day.

Heather was amazing! She was warm and friendly but was very professional in handling family pictures and keeping the "show-on-the-road." I felt very comfortable with her and most importantly, my pictures were perfect! She definately captured the spirit and feeling of our wedding day in each and every shot. I live in Seattle and my wedding was in Virginia so I was left to find a photographer online. I was very lucky to find Heather and would recommend her to any bride!

Heather was fantastic! If you're looking for a wedding photographer with a little bit of style, she's your girl. I have gotten a million comments on how wonderful her pictures are.

I wish I could scream to the world how happy I am that we had Heather do our photos!!! We LOVE our photos. When you look at the pictures you feel as though you are experiencing the wedding even if you did not attend it. The candid shots are awesome and the still shots are wonderful. She captured every moment, I mean every moment. Just as the other reviewers stated you would never know that she attended the wedding. I would recommend her to everyone I meet. She is very professional, her contract is easy to read a understand. I live in the Richmond area and she would email, send a reminder card or call just to keep in touch. We also met a couple times within the year to touch base. Our photos were completed less than 2 weeks after the wedding. We just have one dilemma, We don't know which photos to pick for our formal album because they all are Fantastic!! Heather thanks for giving us WONDERFUL DOCUMENTED MEMORIES of our wedding!!!!

Heather was such a pleasure to work with. All transactions were easy and professional. The day of the wedding she was on time (which we were late), and had already set up an appointment for photos in the lighthouse! Before we even returned from our honeymoon our photos were online at our website and ready for us to send to all our friends and family. All of our posed pics were great but the random action shots are the BEST. Thanks Heather for a wonderful experience and capturing our wedding day with beautiful photos! I would recommend Heather Hughes photography 110%.

Heather was absolutely amazing to work with! She is extremly professional but is very friendly and approachable. She was always on top of things and responded to our questions timely before the wedding and had all of the photos posted online within 2 weeks afterwards. Our proof book arrrived just days later. She made the planning process extremly easy and the wedding day went absolutely perfectly. The pictures came out AMAZING and we couldn't have been happier with them. She seemed to have captured the whole entire day perfectly. She was everywhere taking photos constantly but you never seemed to see her as she blended in so well. Our friends and family referred to her as our "ninja photographer". The traditional shots came out great and were still natural and not overly posed. The candid shots were fantastic! She captured some great moments and we couldn't have been happier in choosing Heather and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

Heather did an absolutely amazing job. She exceeded mine and my husband's expectations. From getting back our proofs on time to always following up with us thoughout the whole process to the actual day in keeping everyone on track and capturing every emotion of the day. She truly is a professional and gives the best service (and her prices are very reasonable). She is organized and got all the "shots" we wanted and they turned out amazing! I would highly recommend Heather to anyone!

Of all of the vendors we chose, I looked forward to meeting with Heather the most. She was very personable, professional, and easy going. On our wedding day her work was sharp, detailed, and captured the special moments of our day that we were not able to witness personally. She told our wedding day story the way we would have told it, had we possessed her talent and vision. Her services were by far our best wedding investment.

I can't even begin to express how I feel about Heather and her photography services. As a bride, it was so important to me to have my wedding day not only captured accurately , but also artistically. Heather exceeded my expectations in both regards. I was torn between two photographers, and my husband said to me "I want Heather, hands down". I'm so glad he did. In our meetings prior to the wedding day, she listened to what my husband and I said that we wanted from our photographs, and when we saw the finished product we were not only impressed with her work, but overjoyed that she captured all of the moments that we had told her we hoped she could get on film. There were many people that we weren't able to invite to our wedding, but as soon as they saw Heather's pictures, they told me that they could feel the mood of the event. My husband, our families, and myself ran a gamut of emotions on our wedding day, and every single one of them can be seen and felt in the fantastic photos that Heather took. Everytime I look at my album and at all of the photos that I have hung up in our home (which, by the way...has become a little excessive!) I feel so satisfied. Not only did I marry a wonderful man, but I certainly picked the best possible woman to record the most wonderful day of my life onto film. Heather did an amazing job blending into the event. There is nothing worse than the feeling that your being followed around by a camera! She really went the extra mile to get every shot, including taking photos while driving behind the trolley that held the entire wedding party! She's like superwoman :-) She's professional, courteous, funny, and she's worth every penny. In my opinion, chosing another photographer over Heather would be a regretful choice.

Heather was great to work with. I appreciated that she was professional but very approachable and put us at ease. Our ceremony was rather complicated, but she did a great job of catching all the important moments and the beauty of the ceremony and our friends. She provided us with some great packages to choose from, and we got so many amazing photos for the price we paid. Her style is candid yet beautiful, and she was so unobtrusive that we never noticed her taking pictures!

Heather far exceeded our expectations which were pretty high to begin with. She did our engagement photos which were spectacular and from that point forward I was sooo excited going forward with our wedding. She truly captured the feeling and essence of our day. The emotion, the joy, the conflicting feelings of joy and sadness of my dad. It takes a true talent to capture the sort of shots she did. If you like photojournalist styles that are not too posed and very artistic, PICK HEATHER HUGHES PHOTOGRAPHY:-) We got sooo many compliments on our wedding pics.

Heather was my wedding photographer and I could not have made a better choice. Not only is she professional and extremely talented, but she is also so much fun to work with.... My pictures turned out beautifully and I couldn't be happier. Thanks Heather!

From the moment I met Heather I knew she would be perfect for our wedding. Her calm demeanor kept everyone at ease throughout our event. All of our pictures reveal her immense talent and ability to make everyone look fantastic. She even captured my father-in-law with several smiles (which isnÂ’t an easy feat)! Her photographs showcase a natural and artistic beauty that make it hard to decide on what pictures to order! I could not have been happier with our selection and HIGHLY recommend Heather to anyone who wants beautiful memories from their wedding. Out of all my vendors, Heather was my favorite!

Heather did an amazing job with our wedding pictures. When the day is over, all you have left is your pictures-they will become your most vivid memories, and Heather made sure that we will have those memories for a lifetime. She was extremely professional, and incredibly responsive. There was no stress involved in working with her and she always made sure that we were happy with what was occuring. Everyone has loved our pictures and I couldn't be happier with the result. She captured all the right moments and was very accomodating. I felt comfortable having her around and I appreciate her hard work.

I would recommend Heather Hughes to any couple getting married. She is absolutely the most professional, friendly photographer out there. We both really loved her style and approach, she was genuinely interested in capturing the moments that were special to us. She is very easy to get along with and is interested in helping make your day the best it can be. If you are looking for a photographer who can capture amazing wedding/reception moments without making it obvious, Heather is the photographer for you.Absolutely loved all the of the photographs she took at our wedding!
