    Heather's the best!

    Choosing a photographer for our wedding was one of the most important decisions in our planning process. From the moment we met Heather, it was evident that she possessed an exceptional blend of talent, professionalism, and warmth.

    Throughout the entire process, Heather exhibited a level of personability that went above and beyond. She took the time to truly understand our vision for the day and offered valuable insights based on her extensive experience. Her genuine interest in our story and her commitment to capturing the essence of our relationship was truly remarkable.On our wedding day, she proved to be an invaluable asset. Not only was she organized and fully prepared, but she also exuded a calm and reassuring presence. Her attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring that every moment was organically and meticulously documented.

    The photographs we received from Heather were nothing short of amazing. Each image encapsulated the love, joy, emotion, and a lot of celebration of our special day in the most beautiful way possible.We cannot recommend Heather highly enough. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only talented and professional but also personable and willing to go the extra mile, then Heather is your girl. She is truly one-of-a-kind, and we feel incredibly grateful to have had her capture our wedding day.

    The Very Best Wedding Photographer Around!!!!

    Heather is amazing and working with her was such a joy! We used Heather for our Engagement Shoot, Rehearsal Dinner, and Wedding Day. For all 3 events she went above and beyond! Every single picture I have received has been beautiful and I am obsessed with all of our photos!! She was so easy to work with and was incredibly kind throughout every interaction. Everyone in our wedding party agreed that Heather was an amazing photographer and was so skilled at walking the line of being firm to get the right picture, but doing it in such a kind way. Everyone loved Heather, and she made each event so much happier and captured the joy throughout our entire engagement and wedding season!! I will treasure all of the pictures she took for us and I cannot recommend Heather enough!! She is absolutely wonderful!!!

    Heather was amazing

    Heather was amazing on our special day. It rained the whole day and she was unbelievably flexible, organized and accommodating. Our day was so seamless because of her and our photos turned out so stunning. I love every single photo in her easy to use digital album and we have been reliving our day ever since!

    The most important piece of the wedding!!

    I had the honor of working with Heather way back in high school photographing me for my senior portraits. It's been a lifelong dream of mine to be able to hire her for my wedding. So incredibly happy my dreams came true!! She is much more than a photographer . She is so incredibly talented , organized , focused and captures images I never thought possible. It is so true that my pictures are worth a thousand words and will be treasures that I have forever and ever. Your photographer means the world and I can't stress enough how amazing Heathers work is and how she truly goes above and beyond in every detail. I am forever grateful for the magic behind her lens.

    Heather is the best decision you can make for your wedding!

    My wedding day photographer was the most important wedding vendor to me. I wanted someone that didn't treat my day like just another wedding weekend. One phone call with Heather sealed the deal. She is so genuine and truly cared about telling my unique story through my images. I was a COVID bride and had to reschedule twice, and Heather could not have been more gracious and accommodating! She was so good about keeping in touch with me and checking in throughout the whole process. I felt I'd known her my whole life when we finally met in person!

    When you hire Heather, you're hiring a true professional that is going to give you magazine-quality shots to cherish forever. She treats every phase of photography just as important as the last -- from first look to dance floor moments. Think no further and hire Heather for your big day!! You won't regret it!

    The Incredible Heather Durham!

    Where do I start with Heather Durham?! She has such an incredible gift. From helping me pick out the perfect outfit for my engagement shoot to teaching me how to pose made her feel like so much more than my photographer - I felt like I had a best friend behind the camera. Heather’s light shines so bright, and I am lucky that I got to spend so much time with her. When the world is spinning around you on your wedding day, Heather makes you feel so at peace and reminds you to live in the moment. Her eye for detail is unmatched. Heather is with you every step of the way from timelines to helping you create a wedding album that you will look at forever. Heather is a rockstar!

    Heather Durham Photography is the best!

    Heather Durham Photography was recommended to me by my friend who is also a wedding planner. I knew I had a wonderful photographer after our first communication. When I first contacted Heather, she was shooting in San Diego. She responded immediately and called me the night she returned home to Nashville. I was so impressed with her prompt communication. She made the planning process so easy because she was efficient, professional, experienced, and creative. We communicated the months/weeks before the wedding day. She created a list of all the pictures that were important to me. Then she planned a schedule to insure each requested picture was taken. At one time, Heather was in the middle of the street taking pictures to capture all the details of our reception. I have been a bridesmaid 13 times and have observed many different photographers. I think what separates a good photographer from a great photographer is the great photographers are able to control a crowd of people in a way that makes the group feel comfortable. She did that perfectly. I could not be happier with the beautiful pictures Heather and Emily took. They made us feel comfortable and calm in front of the camera and never missed a detail of our day. Heather Durham is absolutely the best.

    Most amazing photographer ever!!!

    Heather shot our engagement photos, bridesmaid's luncheon, rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception. I usually don't love photos of myself but Heather helped guide us to capture the most amazing images ever....I love them all!!! She is so sweet and easy to work with and she made the whole process feel very comfortable. She is hands down one of the nicest people ever yet she can wrangle your wedding party and vendors to make sure she gets the necessary shots. I cannot express enough how amazing Heather is and how you should hire her if given the chance. You will not regret it!

    Heather Durham Photography's reply:

    Ahhhhh thank you! Loved spending the entire epic wedding weekend you! It was so much fun and your family and friends are the sweetest!

    Must hire!!!!!

    We chose Heather to shoot wedding photo retakes as a 1 Year Anniversary gift we received from our parents (after we had a previously, not-so-great experience with a different photographer on our actual wedding day.)

    Let me tell y'all - Heather is IT! She is your biggest hype girl. She moves furniture, climbs on tables, lays on the ground, and does whatever it takes to get the shot. She is a go-getter. She is professional, talented, and authentic. From the moment you book her, she is always easily accessible and responds quickly via text, phone, and email. She even Instagrammed a photo from our session the SAME NIGHT she shot it, and we had previews within the week.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Heather! She makes you feel like the most important person in the room and radiates joy in everything that she does. She gained life-long clients in us and I HIGHLY recommend her!

    Heather Durham

    Heather was an absolute dream during the entire wedding process. I honestly could not have asked for a better photographer! She was professional, but so so so much fun at the same time. She made me, my fiancé, and our families feel so comfortable. Her pictures are beyond beautiful and are more than I ever expected!

    We LOVE Heather!!

    There are not enough words to describe how amazing Heather is!! From the first time we talked throughout the whole planning process she was so quick to respond and so helpful. She is extremely professional and truly loves what she does. Heather went out of her way to help and give advice in any way that she could. When the hair and makeup artist I had booked for the wedding had a scheduling conflict arise Heather called me at 9:30 on a Friday night to give me suggestions of other hair/makeup artists and reassure me that everything would work out and be okay.
    On the day of the wedding Heather kept everything not only on schedule but ahead of schedule. She and her assistant had their system down to a T. Heather had a list of pictures that we worked on together and her assistant had everyone lined up ready to step in for each group photo. This made group pictures run so smoothly and efficiently.
    Our pictures from Heather are a dream. She is truly the most talented photographer! She captures such real moments and real emotions. Our pictures are beautiful, natural, and classic - EXACTLY what we were hoping for. No filters, just classic. We will love and cherish these pictures forever! I couldn't recommend Heather more!! She was hands down one of the very best decisions we made during the planning process.

    So glad we found Heather!!

    Found Heather on Wedding Wire. Impressed with her blended professional background and images. Submitted an inquiry late in the evening and, low and behold, had a call almost immediately. That was typical of Heather—responsive, professional and and easy to work with, offering thoughts and suggestions in areas of need! Our out-of-town daughter—the bride—married on a grey, stormy Saturday in early March amid driving rain and severe weather, requiring the entire wedding celebration to take cover within. The photography could have been a disaster, but Heather was able to make tight spaces work with a large wedding party amid the business of preparations. This is where Heather’s professional background and experience was truly visible. Though unable to take advantage of the scenic outdoors, Heather still captured some amazing images! Her journalistic documentation of the entire wedding from start to finish is appreciated and loved. Thank you Heather!!

    Makes a rainy wedding day fun!

    Having Heather photograph my wedding was an absolute dream. I’ve been eyeing her work for many years waiting for the day to have my photos taken by her. She has such a gift for photography and captured so many sweet moments with my groom. I was so upset about it raining on my wedding day but she reminded me that we can work with what we’ve got and make it part of our beautiful story. So she laid down in puddles and ran around in the rain to be sure we would have beautiful photos to enjoy for the rest of our lives. Thanks again Heather for your kindness and hard work!

    Heather Durham Photography's reply:

    Thank you Melissa! You were so calm and joyful the entire day! And...so willing to embrace the rain as part of your story! No way were we gonna let a little rain spoil the fun! It was perfect!

We so enjoyed working with her and appreciate her attention to all the details! The images are incredible and will bring us great joy for years to come!
