There is nothing like the combination of energy and emotion that happens at a wedding that inspires me more. I offer a bespoke service of pricing meaning that I treat each couple and their budgetary needs individually so you choose what you would like to pay for. My photographic style comes from my fine art photography background and my love of photographing people! Please contact me if you are interested in my photography for your wedding day!!

Memories to Last a Lifetime!

In my line of business I work with a lot of event vendors... musicians, caterers, serving staff, and photographers, etc. Over that time, no vendor has ever succeeded my expectations more than Heather at Dreaming Tree Studios.

From the moment she arrived to the end of the night when she left, she was 100% committed to making sure we left the day with the visual representation of what our day meant to us.

We only spoke a few times via email before the wedding, and that’s why I am still so incredibly stunned how perfectly she captured our family and the love we have for one another. These photographs are true treasures for us to hold onto for a lifetime! During the wedding she was engaged, friendly, spunky, and warm to all those around us. She was flexible, allowed me to express all of my wishes, and was just... so fun and trustworthy to be around.

We loved her so much that when we were looking for a photographer for our daughter’s senior photos, we called her right away!

If you are looking for someone in the Central PA that you can trust with your most important life events, take a peak at her work!

I got married last month and used Heather as my wedding photographer. I also did a boudoir shoot with her prior to my October wedding. Heather is very energetic and extremely passionate about her work; because of this, she is very easy to work with and goes above and beyond to accommodate your needs.

I spent hours looking for a wedding photographer. What I personally liked about Heather, is the almost antique rustic feel to her photographs. This style was very fitting for my horse farm wedding. At the same time, I really love bright and high contrast photos. Heather made sure when delivering my wedding proofs that she implemented both of the styles that I addressed during our multiple discussion.

In addition, my boudoir session with Heather went amazing. I had a very specific vision... I wanted my boudoir session to be set in a very industrial setting. Heather went ahead and secured a location for the shoot instantly after I showed her photos of my vision. Without her contact, I would not have been able to execute the look I was hoping for. My boudoir photos came out perfectly and the lighting was amazing. Even my makeup artist who is extremely well known in DC and has even done work for the Oprah magazine, etc. said that my boudoir photos were the best she has ever seen.

You can feel confident in choosing Heather. Wedding photography is a huge decision, but Heather will take the time to work with you in order to understand your likes and vision so she can execute it perfectly.

Heather is a wonderful person and an outstanding photographer!

Heather Shelley of Dreaming Tree Studios is an amazing photographer! Every experience we had with her was a very comfortable one. She has a way to make you feel at ease and make the photography session fun! We loved our engagement and wedding photos! Heather was able to capture special moments between people and the whole event of our wedding day! We got so many compliments from everyone we shared our photos with! My husband and I will for sure be having Heather help us in the future to capture more memorable moments for us!

Finding a wedding photographer can feel daunting (eek, I'm kind of on a budget here, and, I've GOTTA like their photography style, and, omg are they already booked for my date?!?) Heather was a joy to work with and her aesthetic is absolutely lovely! She made the entire process easy, enjoyable, and stress-free. She was easy to communicate with, and shooting with her the day of our wedding was so fun and laid back. Honestly, she's a breath of fresh air! Our wedding photos are absolutely beautiful and I will cherish them for many years to come! I'd highly recommend Dreaming Tree Studios for your wedding!

Everything about working with Heather was a pleasure! She made our wedding day easy and enjoyable. Her photos are gorgeous, but working with her was about so much more than this! We met before the wedding and went over the plan, questions, and she gave us peace of mind about our big day.
On the wedding day, she arrived early, which alleviated any anxiety as the bride. She pinned my husband's boutonniere on, she helped me get dressed, and she rolled with all the punches of the day and the personalities involved.
She was wonderful, patient, and so so kind. EVERYONE in our families commented on how nice she is and we all appreciated her professionalism, positivity, and hard work. Heather even stayed later than we anticipated; she went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of!
I can't recommend her enough!!!!

Heather is a hoot. The groom hates to be in front of the camera, yet she put him so at ease. Everyone loves the photographs; they are wonderfully composed and very artful. Not run of the mill wedding photo layout at all. Heather is a blast to work with, and a true pleasure to business with.

Heather is a wonderful photographer, and we are so glad to have gotten to know her and gained her as a friend after our engagement and wedding sessions. Heather makes everyone feel very comfortable, and we didn't have to stress over anything! She was one of the first to arrive in the morning and one of the last ones there, capturing every moment in between. The photos are beautiful and perfect, and she did not miss a single beat. She and I did an impromptu boudoir bridal session right before the first look, and it was one of the best parts of my wedding day! Heather's pricing is extremely competitive, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone in the area!

Choosing Dreaming Tree Studios and Heather to shoot our wedding was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning. Photography was important to me for our wedding, but I tend to be a little camera shy. Heather immediately put me at ease and really worked with me to help me feel comfortable in front of the camera. She went above and beyond and made it her goal to get me ready for the wedding. We chose her because her body of work was so beautiful, understated and well-executed, but we got a bonus of working with a really fantastic lady. She's super friendly, personable and hilarious. Several of our wedding guests commented to us how hard she was working, but also how sweet she was. When we got our photos back, I was blown away by how wonderfully she captured the beauty and emotion of our day. I'd get married again just to have Heather photograph it!

Beautiful photography, excellent communication, awesome and laid back photographer

Heather with Dreaming Tree Studios made us feel like a million bucks on our wedding day. Her service is spectacular and organized. She helped us to smile to relax on our busy wedding day. When we received our photographs we were ecstatic at how gorgeous they turned out! We were so blessed to be connected to her for our wedding photography, she was also accommodating of our wedding budget as young couple starting out with mostly help from our family and friends. We really appreciate her and her photography business, she is very cool woman with a great personality. Our wedding was at a church, which thankfully did not scare her away! She was very accommodating and pleased to be helping us, she was accepting of our more traditional arrangement. Our reception was at the Civic Club of Harrisburg and she got so many awesome pics of us in the courtyard! Thanks Heather! I would highly recommend Dreaming Tree Studios.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
