Catherine W. Sent on 04/09/2024The BEST photographer to capture your special day
Heather and her sweet husband, Chase, make the best team and are truly incredible at what they do! They captured every single moment of our wedding day from beginning to end and provided us with SO many gorgeous pictures! My wedding photos (and engagement photos) are absolutely stunning!!! Heather creates images that are classic and timeless which is exactly what I wanted. Three months later, my husband and I STILL can’t stop looking at our wedding photos! We will cherish them forever. Heather also has the sweetest, most genuine personality. From our initial phone call - I knew I wanted her to be our wedding photographer. Then, when we met in person for our engagement shoot, it only solidified my first impression of her over the phone. She is extremely experienced, responsive, organized, professional and detail oriented! She goes the extra mile on everything (welcome packages, keeping her brides updated on the editing process, sneak peeks, and delivers a quick turnaround). I cannot recommend Heather Dettore Photography enough! ❤️ -

Best Wedding Photographer
Heather (and her sweet husband Chase) were the absolute best wedding photographers. My husband and I had a short 6 month engagement, and we were scrambling to nail down a wedding photographer who was within our budget but who also had an editing style we liked. Heather had been recommended to me by a friend who had used her at her wedding a year prior. Amazingly enough, Heather was able to accomodate us in her schedule. I was a little nervous having not met Heather prior as we didn't have time do to our engagement photos with her. That said, we had several calls with Heather where she made us so comfortable and showed her expertise and organization by discussing a shotlist with us. When I met Heather on my wedding day, it was like I'd known her for a long time. She came right into the bridal suite and made me feel so relaxed and comfortable. Heather and Chase were incredibly helpful and kind, while still being professional and keeping us on schedule. Following our wedding, Heather sent me text updates regarding the editing status of our photos. She also sent me sneak peaks and gave me access to the online album while she was editing. The photos turned out better than I could've ever imagined and are treasures that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend Heather highly enough. She really is the best! -

I cannot even begin to describe how amazing Heather is. I used to work in the wedding industry so I was very picky when it came to booking our vendors. Heather was a vendor that I knew I was going to use when I got married. We absolutely loved her! She was so helpful before the wedding and answering any questions we had. Day of was even better! We trusted her fully with what she thought was best and I’m so glad we did! Our photos are better than I could’ve ever imagined. I’m so happy that we have these to look back on for years to come. -

My Experience with Heather Dettore Photography
Heather Dettore Photography did an excellent job of easing my worries as a bride who is known to be a little stressed every now and then. The organization of Heather's photography timeline and making sure it aligned with the wants of the Bride and Groom was fabulous. Working with her was a breeze and she always made sure the needs of the Bride and Groom were met the day of the wedding and leading up to it as well. The pictures Heather captured of our wedding day were nothing short of dreamy and perfect and we will enjoy looking at them for years to come! Thank you, Heather, for everything you did to make sure our wedding day was special and captured so beautifully. -

Heather Dettore Photography is the BEST!
We had such a exceptional experience with Heather and Chase as our photographers at our wedding. Their seamless collaboration made the entire day and planning process easy and incredibly enjoyable. Heather went above and beyond to help assist and reassure me when I changed our wedding timeline very last minute. She and Chase ensured every moment was captured beautifully. I highly recommend their professionalism, flexibility, and stunning results.
All of the photos have become a source of constant praise from everyone, including ourselves. Heather and Chase have a knack for capturing the essence of each moment and producing stunning images. Their talent has left a lasting impression on everyone who has seen their work, and we continue to receive compliments on the timeless and captivating quality of our wedding photos. -

The best photographer :)
Heather was SO amazing. I knew I wanted someone who would capture my day perfectly and she did just that. My pictures are everything I could’ve asked for and more. Heather set up a website that I was able to check in on and watch the process as she edited and uploaded my pictures, which made the processes so much fun!! I would recommend her to anyone who is planning an upcoming wedding. She will not disappoint :) -

Best Photographer, Best Photos
Heather provided me with the most stunning wedding photos! I have gotten so many compliments on our pictures since receiving them and sharing them with others. Her and her husband are so sweet and easy to work with. She gave so much direction on how to pose and knew exactly what would photograph beautifully. Not only did she execute our posed pictures perfectly, but she captured so many candid pictures that I’m obsessed with! Her pricing and packages are affordable and include options that not all photographers offer. I would highly recommend Heather as a wedding photographer!!!! -

Danica W. Sent on 06/22/2023An absolute must book!!!
Working with Heather was an absolutely AMAZING experience!! For one- her presence and personality is so welcoming and fun to be around that working with her is a joy! But also, her work and the results she creates are STUNNING!! Both my husband and myself are not 100% the most natural people in front of the camera- but Heather made us feel 100% relaxed and comfortable for our engagement pictures, which helped us relax for our wedding day! Her knowledge is so vast, not only with posing and how to get incredible photos, but also in assisting with the timeline and flow of events to best maximize our time. After our wedding, we heard so many compliments from guests about how Heather and her husband, Chase, were so stealthy and able to get every single moment but not interfere with the moments themselves! I cannot recommend Heather enough and if you're given the opportunity to work with her I'd strongly suggest doing so!!! Thank you so much, Heather for capturing our special day!!Heather Dettore Photography's reply:
You're so sweet Danica, thank you SO much for your kind words!!! We loved being a part of y'alls wedding. Thank you for trusting us with your memories! -

Could not be happier!!
Booking Heather was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! I am new-ish to the Atlanta area so I didn’t have any wedding photography recommendations, but Heather was on our venue’s list of preferred vendors (thank goodness!!). After browsing her work, I knew from her portfolio that we needed her for our wedding! When I first reached out, I was pleased to find that she was extremely responsive and communicative with me and this continued throughout the entire wedding planning process too. Her packages include an engagement shoot, which was a great opportunity to meet her in person. My husband and I have never really had professional photos taken prior to our engagement shoot, but Heather made us feel comfortable and the pictures turned out great. Leading up to the wedding, Heather was very organized and helped us think through wedding day timeline and she answered all the questions and concerns about any potential obstacles on the day of (such as bad weather, etc.). On the wedding day, Heather and her husband Chase were outstanding! They were extremely prepared for every part of the day, worked well with the other vendors, and made sure to capture all of our special moments. Our photos look absolutely amazing!!! I love Heather’s editing style, and I am so happy about how great the photos have turned out. I would definitely recommend Heather and Chase to anyone looking for a photographer in the ATL area! -

Gabby D. Sent on 05/03/2023If I could give more than 5 stars I would!!
5 star review incoming!!! Heather came highly recommended to me by a few friends who had used her in the past and man she did not disappoint!! From the moment I sent her an inquiry email she was so sweet and extremely responsive about everything. Her package includes an engagement photo session and she was super helpful in coming up with ideas of great areas to take them at because I wasn't super familiar with the Atlanta area (we live outside the city). The engagement photos turned out incredible and so from then on I knew that our wedding photos were going to be even better!! About a month before our wedding day, I met with Heather and we went over all the different shots that I wanted to make sure we got on the big day and she was so helpful in guiding me on what she thought would be great photos to have taken throughout the whole day. Fast forward to our wedding day and what do you know, TORRENTIAL DOWNPOUR OF RAIN!!, I mean seriously, it didn't stop raining the entire day and our initial plan was to take most of our photos outside. We of course couldn't do that but her and her husband Chase got there even earlier than they were scheduled to be there to scope everything out to see where we could still get the best photos indoors. Our venue had accordion doors and this is where their creative genius really shined...they ended up pulling open all of the doors and gave our photos an "outdoor" feel and the natural light of outside all while still being inside so we didn't get completely rained on. Every single photo turned out AMAZING. Truly something out of a magazine!! Heather and Chase made taking the photos so easy and natural. Nothing ever seemed super posed or cheesy and it shows in our photos. I couldn't have imagined choosing a better photographer to capture our special day! I have a few friends that are *hopefully* getting married in the near future and I will 100% be convincing them to use Heather & Chase for their big day! -

Amanda B. Sent on 02/22/2023The best decision you can make for your wedding!
Heather was referred to me by a friend who was a bridesmaid in several weddings Heather photographed. She did not disappoint. Heather is professional, organized, responsive, and so fun to work with! She does not get flustered and remains calm and easy going during what can be a pretty chaotic day. My husband really enjoyed working with Heather's husband Chase and said he had the best personality and attitude for trying to wrangle a large group of groomsmen for pictures. Cannot recommend Heather and Chase enough! They were a huge part of making my wedding day so fun and easy :) -

Ivy J. Sent on 02/08/2023Best photographer in Atlanta!
We looked at about 15 different photographers but none of them compared to Heather's work. I actually met Heather when she did my sister's wedding and immediately fell in love with her photos. They are classic and timeless, and I will cherish them forever. Heather is incredibly professional, responsive, and super easy to work with. She's also so incredibly fast with her turnaround times and sends us sneak peeks along the way. A lot of vendors wanted to charge extra for an engagement soon, but Heather includes them in her packages which is a huge relief. She helped me come up with my timeline and shot list before the wedding. And on the day of the wedding, she brings her husband Chase to help out which is great to take care of the groomsmen photos and get different angles that you wouldn't think of. I would recommend Heather to anyone I know and I will definitely be working with her again in the future. Best photographer in Atlanta, hands down. -

Taylor R. Sent on 10/03/202210/10 would recommend Heather Dettore Photography
Heather and her husband, Chase, were the perfect addition to our special day. They were so patient & kind and they were an essential part of why the day went so smoothly. Being a natural redhead, I have always had reservations about being photographed/edited by others but when I look back at the photos that Heather took, I feel like my most beautiful self. These are photos that I will never get tired of looking at and I will cherish them forever. If you have the opportunity to book Heather Dettore Photography, my one piece of advice is to do it! She is simply the best! -

Fantastic photos & amazing experience!
Heather and her husband are everything you could want in wedding photographers. Most importantly, they take amazing pictures that capture your personality and aesthetic perfectly. Also, they both have a calm and relaxing presence that puts everyone at ease and fosters a great time for all involved. My wedding photos came out better than I could have ever imagined. Not to mention she is flexible and super easy to communicate with. Also, she is direct when necessary (in a nice way) that allows you and your wedding party to enjoy the process, but she does not make you spend endless hours posing for photos. I enthusiastically recommend Heather Dettore! She is simply the best :) -

Allison G. Sent on 08/25/2022Heather captured our day perfectly!
Heather was an amazing part of our wedding day! She worked so well with the videographer, was so organized, and really helped the picture-taking part of the day go so smoothly! Prior to the wedding we got to spend time with her at our engagement shoot and got a feel of how she works and how her pictures turn out! It gave us great confidence in her! She met with us at our church too so that I felt confident about where to take pictures. So day of and before the wedding she was amazing!
Once we got the pictures back, we loved her even more (if that's possible)! She captured exactly what we wanted, and I love how she edited everything! I could not recommend her enough! Her husband as her second shooter was amazing too and had some great ideas about how to capture different perspectives! LOVE HEATHER SO MUCH! -

The absolute BEST wedding photographer you could pick
I cannot speak highly enough about Heather. From the second we booked her photography services, she was an absolute dream to work with. She makes each one of her couples feel so special and is determined to achieve your photography vision. Heather is also VERY organized and explicitly lays out a photography schedule for the wedding day to ensure that every single moment is captured. If you want incredible photos and a kind, loving person to work with then look no further than Heather! -

We hired Heather for our wedding day - she was extremely professional, responsive, kind, helpful, and flexible! My husband and I can be shy, but she made everything stress free and fun. We hoped to get “a few good pictures” and she captured SO much more! We could not be more thankful or appreciative of Heather for capturing our special day. We loved working with her!Heather Dettore Photography's reply:
Thank you for sharing, Whitney! It was an honor being a part of your big day!!! Can't wait to see you guys again in the future! xo -

Like many, I was very overwhelmed in selecting a photography vendor for my engagement and wedding. Not only was I am generally uncomfortable in front of the camera, I also wanted timeless shots that captured the emotion and joy of the day. With styles and trends moving so quickly, it is tough to select someone so far in advance of your event.
I'll admit, having had a few phone calls with various vendors...they all seemed to blur together and I was a bit lost on how to choose. Heather, however, was recommended to me by a few friends, and I am SO glad she is who we hired.
Not only did Heather check off all of the must haves for a photographer (responsive, engaging/supportive, talented etc.), she also went above and beyond to ensure my vision for my photos came to life. A week or so before the wedding, I stumbled upon/fell in love with a few photos that had a distinct style...slightly different than what I had seen in Heather's portfolio. I was nervous to ask her if these shots were something we would be able to accomplish - especially with it being so close to the wedding. Not only did she enthusiastically take on the request, she went as far as to order a new piece of equipment to help bring my vision to life. Needless to say she NAILED these shots, taking the examples I gave and making them our own. I also had specific feedback on things I like/do not like to see for wedding photos (i.e. prefer candids, do like the large dancing reception shots). She not only did not make feel like I was being too meticulous or picky, but she clearly listened to each of my preferences when shooting and editing my photos. I couldn't have asked for more.
Finally, Heather shot our ENTIRE day beautifully, with attention to detail and such a warm presence even during my most stressful and emotional moments. I anticipated walking away with a handful of favorites for prints etc.; however, I have a gallery of hundreds of photos that I cannot simply narrow it down!! Thank you Heather for capturing our most important day - we will cherish these photos for a lifetime! -

One of the best decision of the entire planning process!
I'm not sure how many can relate, but one of the things I was most terrified was the pictures with my husband during the whole planning process. He can be thee most awkward person to take pictures with and I was afraid how stiff we would look for our photos. Heather was a DREAM to work with. From our engagement to our wedding photos, you would think my husband was so photogenic because believe me, he is far from it! I loved how Heather took the time to really get to know us and how we interact with each other to be able to capture those beautiful moments. Her style in everything (details, lighting, edits) was definitely beyond what we'd imagined, without realizing that kind of stuff really does matter! We have reached out to so many photographers before we found Heather, and I would highly and strongly recommend to just start with her because it'll be one of the best & easiest decision you've ever made for your wedding -
