Reviews of Heather Chipps Photography

Excellent personality, amazing results!

From the moment we met Heather, we felt supported and comfortable and knew our vision would be captured beautifully. Her infectious positivity and passion for her work is unmatched and truly authentic. It felt like having a family member with us on wedding day to share and document our special day. She and her team caught every special moment, smile, and tear. She was extremely efficient during pre- and post-ceremony photos, which allowed us to enjoy our cocktail hour. We continue to stun people with the quality of our wedding album. We would hire her ten times over!

Heather is amazing!

Heather is an absolutely amazing person, photographer, and artist! We had the pleasure of having her capture both our engagement session and our wedding, and I’ve spent hour after hour pouring over them! She does such an incredible job at making you feel comfortable behind the camera and captured so many beautiful candid moments throughout our day. She goes above and beyond for her clients – like, lying in soaked grass under the pouring rain on our wedding day – to deliver the best pictures possible. We will cherish our photos forever and feel so grateful to have had Heather to capture our big day!

Absolutely Amazing!

Heather is absolutely amazing. She has the sweetest, bubbly personality so she's a joy to work with. Her photos are perfect if you're looking for light, natural and vibrant pictures. Heather is organized and always a phone call away if you need anything. It rained the day we were supposed to do our engagement pictures and Heather was super accommodating so we were able to shoot them the next day when the weather was good. Highly recommend Heather! She is the BEST! Book her now!!!!!

Absolutely OBSESSED with heather and her work!

Heather is an absolute gem and INCREDIBLY talented. She loves what she does and it shows in her photography. She is super easy to feel comfortable around and attentive. My family was super impressed and couldn’t have imagined having anyone else photograph our wedding! She went out of her way to make my husband & I feel so special and I’ll never be able to stop looking at our photos as they’re so gorgeous!!! Highly highly suggest hiring this amazing person!

Perfectly captured our wedding!

It is hard to put into words how great Heather is. Not only is she an extremely talented photographer, she is such a wonderful person. Her bubbly, positive energy is contagious! My husband and I knew Heather was the perfect match for us after hearing rave reviews about her from our wedding venue, Shadow Creek, and looking at her beautiful pictures. My husband and I both view ourselves as camera shy people. Getting our pictures taken usually makes us feel uncomfortable, however Heather changed that for us. We first met Heather for our engagement pictures. We knew she would take beautiful pictures, but we were surprised at how fun and easy it would feel! Heather knows all the perfect poses and was able to make my husband and I genuinely feel in the moment! The next day, we already received a sneak peek of the gorgeous pictures she had taken. After this experience, we literally couldn’t wait until our wedding day because we knew Heather would make it fun and would take gorgeous pictures of our day. Even though we knew this, Heather still blew us away. She captured our day PERFECTLY. Looking through our pictures makes everyone emotional because it feels as though we are reliving the day. I am so grateful that we chose Heather as our wedding photographer because not only did we have such a comfortable, fun experience taking pictures, we have stunning pictures to look back on years from now that will make us feel like we are right back at our wedding day. We can’t wait until the next time we get to work with Heather again. If you want a photographer who makes you feel at home, takes stunning pictures, and will even dance with you and your guests at your wedding, hire heather. I promise you will not be disappointed!

Beyond incredible!!

This is your sign to hire Heather for your wedding/event! She is incredibly talented, easy going and so easy to work with. She's a burst of energy and makes you comfortable taking pictures (which is usually slightly awkward at first). Heather has a very special eye for amazing pictures and pays attention to small details. Couldn't be any happier with working with her. Highly recommend!!

Heather is THE BEST!

From the second I had my first call with Heather I knew I HAD to hire her. She is not only an amazing and talented photographer but just an all around great girl to spend your wedding day with! Your photographer is there with you ALL day on wedding day so you definitely want to hire someone you want to be around and Heather is your girl. It poured rain all day on my wedding day which was obviously a huge bummer and Heather was such an amazing support system and was so reassuring that we would get all the shots rain or shine. We did our engagement photos with her last year and they came out amazing and we have gotten some sneak peeks of our wedding photos (literally 24 hours after our wedding) and CAN’T WAIT to see the rest. Heather is so incredibly talented and 100% the girl you want by your side on your big day. She will be your biggest hype girl and make you feel and look incredible in your photos. HIRE HER.

Amazing Photographer and Wedding Professional

Heather was with us from day 1, we asked her do to both our engagement and wedding photos. We had so much fun taking the engagement photos, which was a foreshadowing moment for our wedding day; she is a blast and she really delivers! The photos were amazing, she is great to work with, and most of all for us, she helped us fine tune our wedding timeline along the way. If I ever need to hire another photographer for an event, she will be my first call!

Heather is incredible!

Heather did our engagement shoot and wedding and we are so grateful we found her! She’s not only an insanely talented photographer but a wonderful person who made the entire experience so much fun. She coached us through our engagement sessions and loved on our puppy Luna and went above and beyond to make our vision come to life. On our wedding day she was so much fun but also kept us all relaxed and calm even as things got hectic. We had so many guests comment on how incredible our photos turned out and my bridesmaids all mentioned how wonderful Heather was - she was just another part of our girl gang that morning :) In addition to her photography Heather cares deeply about her couples - when our dog was hurt a few months after the wedding we got a surprise Barkbox in the mail from Heather - which just goes to show that with Heather you not only get a photographer but a friend. If you want bright beautiful photography Heather is your gal - we look back at our photos and are still amazed at how perfectly she captured our day. Thank you Heather for everything - we only wish we could do it all again with you.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

We selected Heather as our photographer for our daughters wedding and she went above and beyond. WE were so impressed with every moment she caught on camera and she is a lot of fun to work with. Here professionalism and eye for detail were key in selecting her, and it paid off big time. We are 100% satisfied with how the photos turned out. Just perfect. I will definitely refer her to many people. You'll be surprised at her level of effort and how she goes above and beyond to make your event look awesome on film. She truly has a gift and uses it wisely.

Heather is absolutely phenomenal! I had the pleasure of working alongside her at a wedding in 2014 and LOVED it! She's professional, creative, and just a joy to be around! She's also my go-to photographer if I need a second shooter for any of my weddings!
