About

Hello—I'm Crystal Scott, owner of Heritage Photo & Films based in Wake Forest, North Carolina. I'm an organic visual story teller of romantic and meaningful moments—for the wildly in love. My studio serves couples having weddings in Raleigh or those looking outside the Raleigh area and are having a Destination wedding on location.

Wedding days are the best days—from the time a love swept couple walks down the isle and exchanges vows... to the last sip of bubbly from your joyus day together. After these precious moments are all gone, you'll still have the memories and photographs to remind you. I would love to design a custom and cohesive collection of wedding images of your wedding day that will become a part of your own heritage to cherish for a lifetime.

The best. Seriously.

Look, if there were 100 stars, this team would get it. I had the pleasure of working with Crystal and Courtney and I could not have asked for a more wonderful studio to work with. Courtney made the day so easy, fun and enjoyable. All of my fears of taking photos went out the window. She knew exactly how to manage our time, get these incredible shots, all while making our entire group smile and laugh. She is talented, is gifted and simply the best. If you’re looking for a sign to book them, this is it.

Amazing, Professional Photographers!

Crystal and Nicole did a fantastic job capturing our wedding day! We met Crystal via the phone and were sold immediately. She gave us many great ideas for engagement photo locations and we ended up loving every photo from our engagement session. Our pre-wedding phone call was so thorough and we had no worries about missing any photos during the big day! On our wedding day, Crystal and Nicole got right to work and spent the night getting images of all the important parts of our day! The preview was ready for us the next day- AMAZING! We cannot recommend Heritage enough.

Absolutely a dream to work with

I can't stress enough how great Crystal was to work with. From the beginning of the planning process, she was so responsive and really receptive to our vision. When picking a photographer, I didn't realize how important it would be to feel comfortable around them and how it can be a little awkward to pose in a way that feels natural. Working with her felt like working with a friend, which totally put us at ease. She will totally put in the work to get a great photo, which in our case meant taking 2 golf carts off the path so we could get the perfect shot. Not to mention, the photos are absolutely stunning - and we got a preview of them literally a few hours after the wedding! We spent the day after our wedding looking at the photos over and over again. Crystal is awesome and if you're looking for a photographer who will take your vision and run with it, she's a perfect choice!

Wedding Day - Vendor Review

As a vendor finding other vendors who have the same drive and passion for what they do is number one for us. Crystal was super sweet and easy to work with. As a planner/coordinator one of our biggest pieces is the timeline and Crystal made sure to take all of items into account, which made the day run super smooth!

Exceptional

Absolutely amazing experience- EXCEPTIONAL! Crystal was an absolute breath of fresh air. There’s always bound to be some unexpected changes on your wedding day (and that was true for ours as well) but Crystal was an absolute miracle. Not only did she provide exceptional photography skills, she helped other parts of the day go together and happen seamlessly. Everyone in the wedding party commented on her ability to envision the perfect photo! And they turned out better than I could have ever imagined! The photos are a dream. Thank you so much

Absolute Perfection

I cannot say enough amazing things about Crystal and AspenCoast Studio!! I spent a long time researching photographers and picked Crystal based on her great reviews and gorgeous photos - and I am SO grateful I did! She took the time to answer all of my (trillions) of questions, gave us outfit suggestions and amazingly detailed prep emails, and made my fiance and I feel SO comfortable during our engagement shoot (we honestly had FUN, which we were not expecting!) She has gone above and beyond for us time and time again, and we have truly had the best experience we could ask for. Not only is Crystal a fantastic person, but she is the most talented photographer I have ever seen!! She somehow made us look like models even though we are both pretty awkward and had never taken professional pictures before. Even though we don't consider ourselves romantic people, she was able to capture the sweetest moments and the whole thing felt magical. We wanted our pups included in our shoot, and she was SO good with them and helped us handle them all while snapping the most adorable pictures! As you can imagine, we were moving around the entire time (at a windy public beach) so I have no idea how she was able to get such great pictures! Most of my friends had a few photos they liked from their engagement shoots - I have over 200 favorites from mine! All of our family and friends have been blown away by how flawless every single picture is (I have no idea how she made us look SO GOOD!) Crystal's website is attractive and easy to use, and is simple to share your favorites list with friends and family. She was also able to get us our engagement previews and full gallery INCREDIBLY quickly! We are so grateful we chose Crystal and AspenCoast Studio, and can't wait for her to capture our wedding in October 2022!

Love Aspen Coast Studio!

If you’re looking for an amazing photographer, look no more! My fiancé and I had our engagement session done with Samantha in Colorado. And WOW are we so happy with her work. I have received endless compliments on how lost in the moment my fiancé and I look with the photos Samantha took. I have to thank her for really making us feel so comfortable. She is such a kind and sweet individual. Walking away from our session, my fiancé and I agreed we felt more like friends. We look forward to spending the day with her at our wedding and seeing another phenomenal job done!

Wonderful!!

Samantha did a wonderful job at our wedding! She let me know when she was on her way and took beautiful pictures the entire time without being intrusive. She had great ideas for photos that were less posed as well. Crystal was also very helpful and communicative through the process. I would absolutely use them again!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
