    Perfect Match

    We were thrilled Heidi was available to photograph both our engagement photos and wedding. We interviewed several vendors but immediately felt so comfortable with Heidi. She brings so much experience with so much added value in that she is local and knows Carmel/ Monterey very well.

    Heidi was highlighted as a preferred vendor at every venue we looked at and after working together can see why she is truly five star.

    We truly appreciated her wanting to better understand what was important to us to capture our special day. We just received photos and photo slideshow and have gotten so many compliments and just love our photos.

    We highly recommend her services.

    Phenomenal photographer! HIGHLY recommend!

    My husband & I got married in Carmel at the Pine Inn. December 16, 2023. We had a very small intimate evening wedding. Before the ceremony as I waited outside with my father and granddaughter who was my ‘Best Girl’, Heidi came out to meet me and instruct us on how to proceed for the wedding. Her husband was our officiant. I knew within 5 seconds everything would be phenomenal.
    Heidi captured everything. She made us all feel completely comfortable and had a great eye for detail.
    Our most favorite picture, everyone who has seen it says it looks like it belongs on a magazine cover. I cannot stop looking at the pictures.
    I cannot thank her enough for capturing our special moments. We felt like we were the only ones in the world.
    Heidi was so warm & funny. She felt like family.
    If we ever go back to Carmel, for our anniversary, I hope to have her capture more moments for us. Phenomenal!! She’s absolutely phenomenal!!

    A Wonderful Experience

    Weddings In Monterey and Heidi Borgia Photograph made our special day even more special. Brian, the officiant, and Heidi were amazing. They have a way of turning a nervous moment in to a fun, relaxing, memorable experience.
    We couldn’t have been happier with the outcome of our wedding. The edited proofs of our pictures were uploaded to an online album for viewing in only a couple days following. The attention to detail and photo quality is second to none. Thank you both for a wonderful experience.

    Regards,
    Jim & Virginia

    Heidi is incredible!

    We chose to work with Heidi for our beach wedding on April 15th. From the moment we spoke prior to the wedding I felt a special connection with her. Heidi is so fun to talk to! Planning with her was a breeze and eliminated any stress up to the big day related to photography. The wedding was a dream. From the moment Heidi arrived it was pure perfection. Her assistant Val was with her for the day and both of them are just so sweet, professional, creative, and helpful! Heidi's attention to detail and skill truly shine through in not just her photos but in how she works with you to achieve her vision. It was comfortable, fun, and made me feel like a beautiful princess on my wedding day. I truly cannot say enough good things about Heidi. Our photos are absolutely gorgeous and I am just so pleased the whole experience!

    Amazing experience

    It was such an amazing experience Heidi really makes you feel confident and comfortable when taking your pictures. She’s the above and beyond photographer we all need at some point. My husband and I are both very shy people and made was amazing with us and guided us with our shoot. The ceremony was sweet and simple and exactly what we were looking for.

I am blown away by her work absolutely stunning! She told me my photos would be done in a week and I got them two days later. I am happy with the quality of the photos and definitely would recommend her.

    Heidi was better than we could have asked for

    My wife, Victoria, and I had our wedding last year and working with Heidi was a dream. She is such a wonderful person; I am glad that we were introduced to her during our engagement shoot because it put many of our worries at ease with how much direction she gave us in posing and positioning for the shoot. Communicating with Heidi for the engagement shoot and while working towards our wedding day was great, she responds promptly and, in many cases, emailed us answering questions that we didn’t know we had.

    During the day of the wedding Heidi was sure to do everything in her power to keep us on time and comfortable. We loved that she helped us create a photo to do list before the event, and then helped us complete that list efficiently. There was so much happening (and 3 levels to the venue) but looking back at the photos, it seems like Heidi and her assistants were present everywhere and didn’t miss a moment!

    We have no regrets having Heidi photograph our wedding; she is such a brilliant photographer and an even more wonderful person. Whenever we need a photographer for another important life event, she will definitely be our first stop. Thank you so much to Heidi and her team!

    Mog Wedding 9/12/2022

    Heidi was absolutely fantastic!
    Her talent in catching beautiful, natural moments in photos was amazing.
    It was an extremely, cool windy day for the ceremony and somehow she was able to get some excellent shots. She spent a lot more time than ever expected with us after the ceremony capturing more photos, The whales breaching in the ocean behind us was unbelievable!
    We highly recommend her for any type of event.

    Perfect Elopement Experience!

    We had a beautiful, fun, and professional experience. Our photos came out so beautifully. We ordered a custom wedding album from Heidi and it is so worth the money. Just amazing quality. My husband and I highly recommend Heidi Borgia Photography!

    5 stars all around

    Heidi is the best of the best. She photographed our wedding and we couldn't be happier with the results. Our wedding was probably the 4th time we have hired her for professional photos. We shopped around before finding Heidi and have some experience with other photographers and can honestly say she is the absolute best. Do yourself a favor and book Heidi for your wedding!

    The best day with Heidi by our side

    My wedding day was one of the best days of my life. And, a big part of that is because of Heidi. From the start of planning through to the end she was responsive and always available. On our wedding day, she kept my husband (who hates taking photos) and I laughing the whole time It was so natural and fun! We absolutely loved the photos - she is extremely talented and will utilize the time you have with her to make a masterpiece. We have her prints framed all over our home where we will be able to enjoy and remember that amazing day for years to come. We can’t wait to work with Heidi for future milestones in our lives.

    Amazing! Would recommend to everyone! Such beautiful pictures

    Heidi was absolutely fantastic! From the engagement photos, she made me and my husband feel very comfortable. The pictures from our wedding are beautiful and she interacted great with our guests. She was very responsive and worked very well with us. We got our beautiful wedding album and pictures back very quickly. I would recommend Heidi to everyone; she truly made our wedding day better and captured it perfectly in her pictures

    Heidi = the Best

    Two ways to review Heidi's work - the business end and the photography end. A+ to both.

    As a businessperson, Heidi is reliable, responsive and efficient. As a photographer, Heidi is creative, effective and a true professional.

    Heidi has great local knowledge and went above and beyond for our pictures. We are thrilled with the way they turned out and am so happy to have partnered with her. Added bonus is that she has great relationships locally that help edge her out over other photographers, especially those that travel in from other areas.

    When searching for a photographer, it's hard to know who to work with but Heidi's services don't stop at the photos. She went above and beyond the scope of duty. You won't regret working with her.

    Also, she's a great human. Someone that makes instant friends and you'll probably want to hang out with her before/after the wedding.

    Unforgettable

    Heidi was the perfect pick for me! She was so easy going and helpful. Getting photographed for the first time can be stressful and the overthinking starts to happen but Heidi was in her natural environment and made the atmosphere so calm. She answered any question I had very quickly, and knew the venue very well. The timeline that was sent to me was executed to the dot, which was really nice because the day goes by so quickly. I got my album in less than a week! All my pictures were so captivating I still can't choose a favorite. I took advantage of ordering prints from her and was blown away by the quality! If you are looking for a photographer for your elopement, wedding, or engagement Heidi is the ONE!

    Gorgeous wedding photos

    Heidi went above and beyond when taking our photos on our wedding day. She had so many fun and artsy ideas for poses. I don’t usually like having my photo taken but I loved this photo shoot! She did a great job at making me look like a beautiful bride. Heidi promised our photos to us in about 2 weeks, but the turnaround time was much quicker than that. I was blown away at what a great job she did. I definitely recommend her to anyone getting married in the Carmel/Monterey area

    She is just SO much fun

    I normally abhor my photo being taken but Heidi made the entire process so incredibly fun. She has a keen eye for details and poses that make for very memorable photos. However, the best part of working with her is that she embraced my husband and I just being ourselves and completely let it happen. Her kindness and relaxed nature made it so that we felt very easy in showcasing our relationship in photos during our wedding. The other best part is that Heidi is so familiar with the area and has all of the permits that she is able to venture out into different landscapes to fully capture the gorgeous, natural backdrop. She also had us laughing the entire time, while still remaining very serious about the quality of her work. If nothing else about my experience is indicative of her abilities, please know that every vendor I told I was working with Heidi absolutely lit up with excitement that she would be our photographer. She has been an absolute joy to work with.

    Stunning Photos at fair price

    Heidi photographed an engagement shoot in Monterey and our wedding in Big Sur. She has several backup plans for locations depending on the conditions outside to get the best and most stunning photos. She has excellent communication, gets photos to you fast, and has fun shooting. We have nothing negative to say about Heidi or her work. Thank you for making our day feel special and stress-free and for all the support with prints after.

    Professional, flexible, wonderful photographer!

    Ok so this review is very late but very necessary. We hired Heidi after an extensive search of photographers in the Carmel area. I must have interviewed over 10 photographers and I’m sooooo glad we went with Heidi. We initially selected her because of the quality of her shots, she didn’t use any weird filters, the poses looked great, and she was so down to earth and professional on the phone. Our first conversation was very thorough and I remember feeling like she was going to really take care of us by the end of the conversation. She did our engagement shoot at a hidden beach and the pics were gorgeous! The wedding photos were even better. Our wedding had two venues that were an hour and a half away from each other, which put a real time constraint on us for pictures, but Heidi rolled with the punches and got great shots at both locations. She worked seamlessly with our videographer, even driving the videographer in her car with her so we could have the limo to ourselves and the partner could set up at the second location. She was so professional and beyond helpful. Making sure my hair was right, helping with my husbands boutonnière, making sure my earrings made it safely to my overnight bag, etc. The experience with her overall was exceptional. Now, let me tell you about the photos!! They are amazing!! The lighting, the background, the poses, just beautiful. I’m so glad we went with her. She’s very familiar with the area so she knows where to go and how to get the best shots. We also purchased our wedding album with her. Let me say, I was a little hesitant to get one with her because it’s quite pricey, and I had already researched other options, but ultimately we decided to go with hers…thank god we did, I don’t regret it one bit, invest in the album. It’s gorgeous! The quality is unmatched. It’s hefty, thick, and just overall great quality!! It’s an investment for sure but soooooooo worth it a hundred times over! GET THE ALBUM. If you’re questioning it, watch her videos to check out her samples. Money comes and goes but your memories are forever. Overall working with Heidi and her team was wonderful and made the busy day a little more manageable. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. Thank you Heidi! You’re the bomb! ❤️
    Attached are some of my fav shots but trust me there are a million more! The lighting affects on these photos were only on specific shots, most of the photos had regular great quality lighting

    10/10 Experience!

    We worked with Heidi for our wedding in July, and I can not imagine the experience being any better. She was attentive from the beginning, and even helped plan out the timeline and suggested locations to get that best shot. My husband and I had never gotten our photos taken professionally before, or even been to a wedding before our own, but our photos were the one area we were 100% sure there would be no issues.

    Dream wedding

    I always wanted to get married on a beach, it’s my happy place. Beach weddings are tricky as the weather, wind, etc are very hard to work with. Heidi was great and you would never know from her work all the obstacles she has to overcome to get the perfect shot. Not to mention running around on the sand is a workout in itself. She was able to give me photos to look back on that I will forever cherish and pinch myself because that was really our day. Her photos are amazing and I couldn’t be happier with her and her fairytale photos!

    We LOVE Heidi Borgia Photography

    We LOVE Heidi Borgia Photography! We hired her and her husband to assist with our wedding on the beach in Monterey and they went above and beyond to help us organize and plan everything. It was so wonderful having someone who knew the area take care of the small details for the wedding ceremony! Heidi took our wedding photos and they turned out absolutely stunning! I had dreamt of this day since I was a little girl and she captured every small detail perfectly. My husband and I fell in love with all the pictures she took on our special day. When we were going to have a maternity shoot we chose to hire her again to capture our special family growing! We live in Roseville but loved working with her so much we chose to drive to Monterey so she could take our photos again. She is extremely professional and she really cares about her clients. We have used her for our family photography for our wedding and two maternity shoots now and I plan on using her in the future as well. We love working with her and she takes incredible pride in her work!

    Quality, Professional, Responsive

    I first contacted Heidi in January 2020 pre Covid about shooting our wedding in early 2021. Needless to say, we had to cancel and reschedule to August 2021. Heidi was wonderful to work with regarding scheduling a new date and honoring all original contracts and pricing and being very flexible and accommodating. She is organized, professional and quick to respond to all communications. Her pleasant and fun personality was able to put me at ease and keep me calm during the whole process leading up to the wedding and the wedding day itself. It was like having a close and personal friend as the photographer. The outcome of feeling that trust and comfort level with Heidi shows through in the quality of the photos she took of my husband and I. She captured all the settings I requested and many many more. Heidi is a very talented photographer and was able to capture some beautiful moments between my husband and I and also family and friends. Heidi helped me order several canvases from our photos and we were very pleased with them all. Heidi organized the layout of our beautiful photo album which exceeded our expectations. It will be treasured for years to come. She also organized a slideshow of my favorite photos with songs from our wedding and reception. Watching the slideshow is like reliving the day all over again with a big smile. I would definitely recommend Heidi. She did a fabulous job!

    Amazingly talented!!

    If you're looking for an amazing photographer in Monterey, Heidi is your girl! We connected using their wedding service and I could not be happier! She arrived early and helped line up and capture all of the wonderful shots I wanted on my big day. Heidi made sure my poses were on point while simultaneously keeping us on schedule and updating our venue of our timeline for arrival. I don't know how she does it but you can tell she loves what she does and is good at! I would also like to add she had our photos back while we were still on our honeymoon!! I was expecting to wait at least 6 weeks! I loved working with Heidi and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. She made us so comfortable and happy we love her!

    The most amazing stress free magical moment

    My now husband and I got married in June 2021 in Carmel, CA. We live in PA so getting help on finding a photographer and salon was important. Finding Heidi Borgia as a photographer was amazing. She was friendly, funny, and easy going. She took the stress out of everything. Heidi captured every angle and moment. Absolutely stunning pictures. There were so many pictures taken and every single one is beautiful. We received our pictures beautifully packaged.

    Amazing Quality

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
    Heidi did an amazing job with our wedding photos, which was on September 19th. She did everything that we had requested, made it fun, and even had many neat ideas of her own. And to mention, the high definition quality for printouts. She also gives good discounts if you want any custom printouts. We highly recommend Heidi Borgia Photography. Also, look into Weddings In Monterey and look at their exclusive wedding packages, as what they have to offer would be just right to fulfill your wedding preferences.

    Still in love with my photos!

    I contacted Heidi to ask if she was available for our "minimony" in Monterey and thankfully she agreed to shoot it! She is the best, very down to earth and made my fiance and I super comfortable in front of the camera even though we are not center of attention people! She communicated constantly before the day and on the day was right on time and very professional. She even stepped in as the ceremony coordinator when I was unable to locate the venue coordinator to start the ceremony! Our photos are gorgeous and she was great to interact with. I can't thank her enough!

    Just amazing!

    Heidi is an incredibly talented photographer in the Monterey Peninsula area, I highly recommend her services she's very responsive and kind and worked with me making sure I got everything I wanted and captured so many beautiful shots of our family and friends. She's very organized and will make you feel very calm during the day of your wedding regardless of everything that goes on during the day which could be overwhelming but her calmness helped me enjoy every single moment. Thank you so much Heidi for the amazing photos!

    Fantastic!!

    Heidi and her husband Brian really know what they're doing when it comes to being the total package for a wedding photographer and officiant! I come from an event planning background with over 15 years under my belt, so I've seen many photographers in my day and Heidi was absolutely fantastic!! I already knew by looking at her work that I didn't have anything to worry about when it came to results, the only worry I had from my years of experience was concerning how long the post-ceremony wedding photos can take. So many couples I've worked with in the past felt like they were "stolen away" from cocktail hour or more time that could be spent with their family and friends at their wedding because of photos, but not only did Heidi have every single pose and shot mapped out to the most efficient "T," she brought a light-heartedness and humor to her craft that made the experience so much fun! She even has mastered the art of getting my rambunctious nieces/flower girls (age 4 and 5) to stand still and look at the camera AT THE SAME TIME. Seriously, that never happens! :) Everything from her lighting to her professional demeanor and even her lovely assistant made our wedding photos spectacular, and best of all, we received our photos in only a matter of days!! She must have super powers, because I know we weren't the only wedding she was shooting that weekend! Thank you, Heidi, for being a master at your craft!

    Truly a gift!

    We hired Heidi to photograph our intimate ceremony. We didn't have a list of poses; we were pretty relaxed about pictures with hope of at least 1 great shot from the day. With her creative eye, Heidi captured moments that allowed me to step right back into that day. There were many wonderful shots! Each frame accompanied a memory that I get to revisit, remembering special thoughts and feelings from the day. I'm truly grateful for this unexpected gift. Working together after the ceremony was easy. She was always responsive and helpful with my many, many, questions. I am very pleased with the experience and level of service provided. I definitely recommend Heidi!

    Renewed our Wedding Vows, 30 years

    Heidi and Brian are the best! They were so personable, funny, nice and made us feel so relaxed. Our date was during the week and they were our witnesses to our special day and we were so comfortable with that. They made us feel very special. I would guarantee Brian will work with you on a schedule that’s just the type of people they are. They helped us with the location which was in Carmel, which was stunning. They communicated with us up to the day we met them and always responded to our questions within 24 hours or less. We can’t praise them enough for the ceremony, place and pictures! Heidi did a fantastic job, the pictures are beautiful. 5 stars guys they won’t let you down.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Heidi was so fantastic! She helped me to get everything sorted out as far as a timeline for the wedding and when we should do things to ensure we got the best pictures possible! She arrived early to set up and make sure we got all the shots we wanted and had so many fun ideas, which was especially helpful since I had no idea what I wanted! Our pictures turned out beautifully and I am so thankful that she was our photographer for our special day!

    Carmel, CA Elopement

    My fiancé and I were one of the many couples who had to postpone our 2020 wedding due to Covid19. After much contemplation, we decided to privately elope on the beach in Carmel, CA and still hold our larger wedding (hopefully) in 2021!
    As a professional wedding planner it was a no-brainer for me to immediately reach out to Brian and Heidi Borgia (wedding officiant and photographer extraordinaire!) I had the pleasure of working with Heidi and Brian for years with many of my wedding clients and now it was my turn to finally be “The Bride”!

    We could not have been happier with our choice!! Heidi was amazing…on time, punctual and professional as always – I would expect no less. During the wedding, she was everywhere and knew the exact angles to take the perfect photos. She was completely unobtrusive and put us at ease with her confidence, laughter and grace.

    Heidi really captured our love and the special moments of our amazing day. We are forever grateful and will enjoy our captivating photos forever. I HIGHLY recommend the Borgia Team!

    Thank you Heidi!!
    XOXO

    Five stars

    Working with Brian and Heidi was such a dream! My husband and I have had to change our wedding plans several times throughout Covid, and ultimately decided on eloping in Carmel.
    Right off the bat, Heidi was very friendly and made my husband and I feel at ease. We received our photos less than 24 hours later, and we were obsessed! The pictures came out all so beautifully!
    Heidi was amazing! We can’t wait to work with her again!

    Heidi and her assistant were wonderful. Very professional and new exactly what would be best! Perfect addition to our small ceremony during these crazy times. Excellent photos and very quick turn around time! Captured the whole ceremony and things we would have never thought about capturing on our own. Would definitely recommend Heidi for your photography needs!

    Couldn’t have been any better

    Heidi was amazing! She was so easy to work with. I wasn’t sure of what pictures I wanted, and Heidi was able to help me decide what pictures we wanted in our time together. The day of she was so fun and lighthearted, it made the day that much better. I started out stressed and her attitude immediately turned mine around. The pictures turned out better than I could have hoped for! I am so excited to have them for the years to come. On top of that, she got them to me so quickly! Everything was perfect, I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

    Best Photographer!

    Our experience with Heidi was nothing short of absolutely amazing. Her personality immediately made my husband and I feel at ease on our wedding day. She was warm and funny, and very clearly knew what she was doing. Heidi was familiar with the area we got married in, which was a huge plus! It was a foggy day and she was able to capture the light beautifully and direct us in making our photos absolutely perfect. We eloped, and our photos were extremely important to us, as they would be the key to telling the story of our day to our loved ones. We couldn’t be happier with the photos (and every aspect of our experience). We would recommend Heidi to anyone, especially someone unfamiliar with the area planning a destination wedding like we did!

    Our wedding day was so amazing and perfect in every way! From choosing a elopement package/location, vendors they recommended, the final details and the actual day! I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to make their wedding day beautiful, simple and intimate. We loved the officiant Brian Borgia, his wife Heidi the photographer and Spa Bella Mobile Day Spa Services for hair/makeup perfection!

    From COVID nightmare to dream wedding!

    I can't say enough good things about Heidi!! I never write reviews but she deserves this exception! My husband and I booked Heidi because she was listed on my Venue's recommended list. From our first meeting I immediately new she was going to be amazing. Heidi is the epitome of professionalism and had the "take charge" attitude I was looking for. I wanted someone I could trust to get the job done and help guide me through the process. Heidi always responds promptly and thoroughly. Our wedding fell in the middle of COVID. Two weeks before the wedding there was another shutdown and our venue pulled out. Last minute we swapped to a new venue. Heidi was so flexible and supportive during this time. She helped reassure us and seamlessly swapped to the new venue. She is so experienced and immediately was familiar with the new site and what shots to take there. She also worked so well and closely with the other vendors which helped ease our load during this hectic time. On the wedding day Heidi was a godsend. She took charge and helped make sure everything happened on time. We have over 800 beautiful photos from the big day its impossible to narrow down our favorites. Heidi was so thorough that guests commented on how good she must be doing - at the same time she blended in to the background seamlessly and never interrupted our day. The wedding was amazing and a big part of that was thanks to Heidi and her assistant Brooke.

    Heidi is simply the best!

    My fiancé and I had our wedding postponed due to covid-19, and Heidi was amazingly flexible and supportive with our plans changing. She recently did a pre wedding photo session with us and we had such a great time! She was in full mask and she was always 6+ feet away. We felt safe around her and her helper, and the photos came out absolutely wonderful! We can’t wait to work with her again on our actual wedding day, and we can’t recommend Heidi enough!

    Couldn’t imagine a better wedding

    We had such an amazing experience working with Heidi. She captured our short and sweet wedding day perfectly. We had a few pictures we wanted in mind and she went above and beyond with photos. We have been looking through our photos everyday and it feels like we are reliving our wedding day each time. It’s so hard picking which shots we want printed. She was great on helping us with poses and how to be positioned, which was super helpful since my husband and I aren’t the best at posing for photos. We felt so comfortable working with her. She was very flexible and worked with us during these times of COVID, maintaining a safe distance and wearing a mask. I would highly recommend her as your photographer!

    Elopement Pictures

    What a wonderful experience during a time that we didn’t get to celebrate as originally planned but Heidi and Brian made it fun and happy! My husband and I are fussy and awkward when it comes to pictures, but Heidi took on the challenge and did an amazing job! I am hoping she can do our family beach pictures soon! Thank you so very much Heidi and Brian!!! ❤️

    Thank you!

    Heidi did such a great job on our wedding photos! After viewing them, they are actually even better than we had hoped for. Heidi was very friendly and professional. She made my husband and I feel comfortable around her right away and we could tell by her directions that she really knew what she was doing. I plan on sharing these photos with my friends and family and I would recommend Heidi to anyone who has a special event coming up.

    Captured our love for each other

    Heidi's personality was so much fun! She captured the love that my husband and I have for each other, even after so many years of knowing each other. This made our wedding and pictures even more magical than we could have ever imagined! Thank you, Heidi for everything!!!

    Thank you for everything Heidi!!

    Wow, where to begin….Thank you so much Heidi and Brian for making the sweetest day for my Husband and I so incredibly magical from start to finish! Heidi and Brian are both very sweet and warm people who made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire day. This was our first time ever hiring a photographer and having photos taken of us and she made us feel so comfortable and natural, we laughed all day it was amazing. Our memories from that day are so precious and we are so grateful Heidi was there to capture each moment and every detail. She really cares and has such a beautiful vision, our photos from that day are just breathtaking. We could not be more happy with our experience. We would highly recommend Heidi and Brian to anyone out there searching for a Photographer and/or Officiant. They were so easy to work with, extremely professional and very personable and welcoming. We just love them and will never forget them, thank you for making our special day so unforgettable.

    With Love,

    Matt & Mari Green

    Quality and fun!

    Heidi was not only friendly, but also fun, and the pictures we received from our wedding day were beautiful. There’s a sincerity and genuine quality to the way Heidi interacted with us and our guests, and that definitely translated into the pictures, which were well done! She also helped stave off the anticipation of waiting to see the pictures by sending us a few the next day. We were very satisfied!!

    Fantastic photos, Fun experience!

    Heidi is incredible!
    She photographed our elopement and we could not be happier with the results! My husband doesn't typically enjoy photoshoots, but even he was able to relax and have a great time. Heidi made us feel so comfortable and she ended up getting some great candid moments in addition to more traditional poses. She had great ideas for photos and was enthusiastic about the ideas we brought too. It really felt more like hanging out with a friend than other photoshoots we've participated in.
    The day was really bright, so we were worried that we might look washed out in the final pictures, but Heidi worked magic and they are so vibrant! She really captured the beauty of the setting.

    I cannot recommend Heidi enough!

    Fun & Professional

    We chose the Luxe Collection for our wedding photos which included an engagement session. Heidi was flexible with us since we live in San Francisco and even took a video call for our intro meeting. We were impressed with her positive energy, professionalism, and portfolio from the start, so we knew we were in good hands. She made us feel comfortable and carefree during out fun engagement shoot with our dog Dexter at Pebble Beach, even though it was really cold in January 2019! The photos were delivered on time and came out beautifully for both our engagement shoot and for our wedding in May 2019 at Intercontinental the Clement in Monterey. We especially loved the photo slideshow she put together so we can easily share highlight photos with our family & friends a few weeks before the full gallery was ready. It was fun to work with Heidi because you can tell she LOVES her job and it truly shows in her work. Thanks Heidi for capturing our wedding day, we will treasure your photos forever!

    Amazing photos!

    Beautiful photos! The photos are special because of the way Heidi uses the surroundings to enhance them as the well the way she made us feel at ease. We only met Heidi as we arrived for the ceremony and almost immediately we felt we found a good friend. My wife loves being in front of the camera while I’m a little shy, but Heidi made me feel at ease, I actually enjoyed the photos. It was playful and fun and that all translated to amazing photos. Heidi captured the true spirit of our wedding! Thank you Heidi!!!

    It was an absolute treat to have Heidi photograph our wedding! She couldn't have been nicer and more responsive throughout the entire process. She had wonderful ideas for poses, even getting some great shots out of two people who are typically camera-shy! She really captured our day, and we will cherish our photos for many years to come!

    Professionalism & Expertise!

    We contacted Weddings in Monterey for our little ceremony and Heidi is the photographer. We didn’t meet Heidi till the day of the wedding, we exchanged a few emails prior to the date to iron out the details. She came to the hotel 15 minutes earlier than planned, she was very friendly and easy to deal with. She knew exactly what she was doing, took plenty of pictures for both of us and then drove me to the event location where my groom and Brian (the officiant) were waiting.
    Throughout the whole ceremony Heidi took an abundance of pictures from all sides trying her best to avoid the surrounding crowds as our wedding was in a public area. After the ceremony she took more pictures from every angle and it was very clear she was in full control of the camera and what she wanted the pictures to show.
    I had asked Heidi if she could send us a few pictures to show our family since the wedding included just the two of us. To our utter delight, she sent us a 40 picture album the following day with AMAZING pictures! She captured every little detail. All the poses were done to complement our union. The beach and sunset pictures were like postcards. We were immensely pleased by the quality of the pictures and the professionalism it took to produce them. We would definitely recommend Heidi for any special occasion. Her expertise and high quality work in addition to her fun and easy going attitude will sure eternalize the most wonderful memories you can possibly imagine.

    Hit the Jackpot

    Heidi was an unbelievable help, I found her pictures online from which she helped me choose a beautiful location and plan my secret proposal. She was so understanding and did everything to accommodate me and my requests in a short time-frame, even when I was being less than helpful or smart. Heidi got me over-the-line basically, I wanted the day to be perfect and though my sense of direction and the weather were slight let downs, her pictures make it look smooth, bright and beautiful, we got such a large range of photo's to choose from, all tastefully taken and edited. Plenty of direction on the day and above all despite only meeting her for the first time after I had proposed, it felt like I had a professional friend there for us both. Magical day, I wish I could relive again!

    What a lucky day!

    Heidi and team were great to work with! We had an outdoor, daytime, spring wedding in Carmel; which can bring many unforeseen variables to the day with weather and lighting. We planned our sets and timing going into the day, but had flexibility on the day of the event to maximize getting the best shots. Rain kissed our day twice and she managed to work around it. Heidi knows the peninsula venues and micro climate very well, which is incredibly valuable if spontaneous changes are needed.

    I am a little on the shy side, so Heidi was a fantastic fit due to her ability to make one feel at ease in front of the camera. We were grateful to have her team by our side! We love our photos!

    Exceptional

    Heidi was fabulous to work with. We had so much fun with her during our wedding. I had never even talked with her but had only sent in a few pictures of what we were looking for and she went out of her way to get the pictures we had desired. She was very professional and had some great ideas to make our day extra special. I would highly recommend working with her. She is exceptional and it was a pleasure having her a part of our wedding. Thank you so much for everything and letting us play in the water. You were amazing.

    Heidi Borgia - Brilliant Wedding Photographer

    Planning for a wedding can be stressful and expensive. We met Heidi through her husband Brian Borgia who was our officiant.

    When we first spoke to Heidi we were getting close to our wedding and still, we did not have a photographer in mind. Brian introduced us and we scheduled a call and she gave us an overview of how she would plan the shoot for the day.

    She was easy to talk to and the best thing about it is she did not try to oversell her services but rather give guidance and ideas on what to expect throughout the day.

    After we decided that we want to work with Heidi she provided us with a timeline of the shoot so we were not working blindly which is very important because it can get chaotic. Her planning was perfect and a photographer with great time management is important so they are not there just wasting time.

    The quality of our pictures is perfect and beautiful. We still keep staring at them on a daily basis and share them with our friends and family. the only thing we need to do is order prints from Heidi when we get a chance.

    I would definitely use Heidi for our future pictorial and would recommend her to anyone who needs a proper photographer, not just for a wedding but for other events.

    Heidi - Thank you so much for making our special day memorable. We appreciate the work that you have done for us and I am sure that we will use your services again.

    Cheers,

    Rose & Michael

    Heidi done a perfect job of capturing our special day. From first contact she made us feel at ease, and once we had met we knew she would do a great job. Her photos were excellent quality and value. She managed to capture every aspect of our day. We couldn’t have been happier with Heidi, and would highly recommend to anyone that was thinking of using her for their events.

    A gorgeous wedding on the coast!

    Heidi and her husband Brian were a perfect team to have as a photographer and officiant of the wedding. They were prompt and willing to work with us and the weather well. Heidi kept us moving along quickly after the wedding ceremony because of the mild wind chill of the coast. We were quite pleased with the pictures except one. Heidi’s red dress was reflected on the close up of our rings. She has yet to correct that but we are very pleased with the rest. I would recommend this team to anyone.

    Wedding Photos

    Heidi is the rare mix of professional and personal. She took the time to find out what my fiancé and I wanted for our wedding day and made it happen. We got married at a lighthouse and we wanted photos on the beach together before the festivities started and she made this happen. I would recommend her to everyone!

    Heidi is the best!

    My husband and I wanted a small simple wedding in Carmel Valley and hired Brian and Heidi from Weddings in Monterey to help us with our special day. As a wedding photographer, Heidi is great. During our photo shoot, she made the best use of the wedding venue and captured a lot of interesting angles and details. My family and I absolutely love our photos. I highly recommend Heidi!

    Hands down Best Photograher in Mounterery county!!

    From the very first conversation with Heidi, my husband and I knew she was the one we wanted to capture our special day! Heidi was so personable, knowledgeable, and let's not forget to mention funny! She answered all of our questions, her prices fit our budget, and she was very familiar with the Monterey County area. We knew she would put us at ease and capture the most beautiful candid shots. And she did exactly that and MORE!! What we didn't expect is that she would be there every step of the way with the wedding planning process to offer great insight and recommendations. Because she has been in the industry so long, she has a great referral list, offers wonderful suggestion for engagement photo shoot, can recommend vendors such as hair and makeup artists. She basically stepped in has a wedding coordinator at times. Most important, our wedding day ran smoothly, which we have Heidi to thank for that . As soon as she arrived, she set up quickly, gave great direction and took charge of a somewhat chaotic day. Heidi asked me to send her a list of photos I wanted ahead of time, so she knew exactly my vision before hand and came in prepared. To this day we still get so many compliments on our wedding photos. Heidi had them back to us in record speed too! Over 800 shots!!! Since the wedding, we still keep in touch. Heidi has become a friend to my husband and I and we look forward to working with her again in the future.

    Pictures that last a lifetime

    Heidi was fantastic, she was organised and calm on our wedding day...and most importantly made it fun! We loved our intimate small family wedding and it’s beautiful to have the photos to go with it! Heidi was great at capturing our personalities in the photos and we can’t thank her enough for all Heidi and Brian did for us

    Amazing Photographer!

    Heidi is an amazing photographer! She went above and beyond to make our wedding photo dreams come to life. I planned my wedding without ever visiting the venue (destination wedding!). Heidi was very familiar with the property and its surroundings and found the most picture-perfect spots for our photos. She is genuinely nice, extremely talented, and very organized. My wedding day was stress-free and I truly believe she was a big part of that! Thank you so much Heidi!

    Very happy with Heidi!

    It was a pleasure working with Heidi. She did an amazing job and was fun to work with. She was very accommodating and worked on New Year's Day to take our photos. The pictures turned out great and we couldn't be more pleased with choosing Heidi for our special day.

    Very professional

    I loved my wedding pictures. We were a big group (over 100) in a beach but Heidi was very nice and handled the whole group very professionally. I have pictures with all my family and friends with a lovely scene. Thanks Heidi.

    Amazing Photos

    Heidi was amazing! She did a great job on all of our photos from the group shots, to the ones of just me and my new husband. Heidi had creative ideas for photos and was very professional. I would definitely use her services again.
