Tracy Sent on 12/22/2023Phenomenal photographer! HIGHLY recommend!
My husband & I got married in Carmel at the Pine Inn. December 16, 2023. We had a very small intimate evening wedding. Before the ceremony as I waited outside with my father and granddaughter who was my ‘Best Girl’, Heidi came out to meet me and instruct us on how to proceed for the wedding. Her husband was our officiant. I knew within 5 seconds everything would be phenomenal.
Heidi captured everything. She made us all feel completely comfortable and had a great eye for detail.
Our most favorite picture, everyone who has seen it says it looks like it belongs on a magazine cover. I cannot stop looking at the pictures.
I cannot thank her enough for capturing our special moments. We felt like we were the only ones in the world.
Heidi was so warm & funny. She felt like family.
If we ever go back to Carmel, for our anniversary, I hope to have her capture more moments for us. Phenomenal!! She’s absolutely phenomenal!! -

Drew Sent on 04/21/2023Heidi is incredible!
We chose to work with Heidi for our beach wedding on April 15th. From the moment we spoke prior to the wedding I felt a special connection with her. Heidi is so fun to talk to! Planning with her was a breeze and eliminated any stress up to the big day related to photography. The wedding was a dream. From the moment Heidi arrived it was pure perfection. Her assistant Val was with her for the day and both of them are just so sweet, professional, creative, and helpful! Heidi's attention to detail and skill truly shine through in not just her photos but in how she works with you to achieve her vision. It was comfortable, fun, and made me feel like a beautiful princess on my wedding day. I truly cannot say enough good things about Heidi. Our photos are absolutely gorgeous and I am just so pleased the whole experience! -

Edgar Sent on 01/22/2023Heidi was better than we could have asked for
My wife, Victoria, and I had our wedding last year and working with Heidi was a dream. She is such a wonderful person; I am glad that we were introduced to her during our engagement shoot because it put many of our worries at ease with how much direction she gave us in posing and positioning for the shoot. Communicating with Heidi for the engagement shoot and while working towards our wedding day was great, she responds promptly and, in many cases, emailed us answering questions that we didn’t know we had.
During the day of the wedding Heidi was sure to do everything in her power to keep us on time and comfortable. We loved that she helped us create a photo to do list before the event, and then helped us complete that list efficiently. There was so much happening (and 3 levels to the venue) but looking back at the photos, it seems like Heidi and her assistants were present everywhere and didn’t miss a moment!
We have no regrets having Heidi photograph our wedding; she is such a brilliant photographer and an even more wonderful person. Whenever we need a photographer for another important life event, she will definitely be our first stop. Thank you so much to Heidi and her team!

We had a beautiful, fun, and professional experience. Our photos came out so beautifully. We ordered a custom wedding album from Heidi and it is so worth the money. Just amazing quality. My husband and I highly recommend Heidi Borgia Photography! -

Heidi Borgia Photography is a true professional. She made our wedding day extra special with her ease in finding the best setting and photographs to memorialize our wedding ceremony. She was friendly, inclusive, and worked personally with our family. I would highly recommend her! -

Lisa Sent on 09/28/2022She is just SO much fun
I normally abhor my photo being taken but Heidi made the entire process so incredibly fun. She has a keen eye for details and poses that make for very memorable photos. However, the best part of working with her is that she embraced my husband and I just being ourselves and completely let it happen. Her kindness and relaxed nature made it so that we felt very easy in showcasing our relationship in photos during our wedding. The other best part is that Heidi is so familiar with the area and has all of the permits that she is able to venture out into different landscapes to fully capture the gorgeous, natural backdrop. She also had us laughing the entire time, while still remaining very serious about the quality of her work. If nothing else about my experience is indicative of her abilities, please know that every vendor I told I was working with Heidi absolutely lit up with excitement that she would be our photographer. She has been an absolute joy to work with. -

Amanda Sent on 03/07/2022Stunning Photos at fair price
Heidi photographed an engagement shoot in Monterey and our wedding in Big Sur. She has several backup plans for locations depending on the conditions outside to get the best and most stunning photos. She has excellent communication, gets photos to you fast, and has fun shooting. We have nothing negative to say about Heidi or her work. Thank you for making our day feel special and stress-free and for all the support with prints after.

I first contacted Heidi in January 2020 pre Covid about shooting our wedding in early 2021. Needless to say, we had to cancel and reschedule to August 2021. Heidi was wonderful to work with regarding scheduling a new date and honoring all original contracts and pricing and being very flexible and accommodating. She is organized, professional and quick to respond to all communications. Her pleasant and fun personality was able to put me at ease and keep me calm during the whole process leading up to the wedding and the wedding day itself. It was like having a close and personal friend as the photographer. The outcome of feeling that trust and comfort level with Heidi shows through in the quality of the photos she took of my husband and I. She captured all the settings I requested and many many more. Heidi is a very talented photographer and was able to capture some beautiful moments between my husband and I and also family and friends. Heidi helped me order several canvases from our photos and we were very pleased with them all. Heidi organized the layout of our beautiful photo album which exceeded our expectations. It will be treasured for years to come. She also organized a slideshow of my favorite photos with songs from our wedding and reception. Watching the slideshow is like reliving the day all over again with a big smile. I would definitely recommend Heidi. She did a fabulous job! -

Heidi is an incredibly talented photographer in the Monterey Peninsula area, I highly recommend her services she's very responsive and kind and worked with me making sure I got everything I wanted and captured so many beautiful shots of our family and friends. She's very organized and will make you feel very calm during the day of your wedding regardless of everything that goes on during the day which could be overwhelming but her calmness helped me enjoy every single moment. Thank you so much Heidi for the amazing photos! -

Pamela Sent on 04/21/2021Fantastic!!
Heidi and her husband Brian really know what they're doing when it comes to being the total package for a wedding photographer and officiant! I come from an event planning background with over 15 years under my belt, so I've seen many photographers in my day and Heidi was absolutely fantastic!! I already knew by looking at her work that I didn't have anything to worry about when it came to results, the only worry I had from my years of experience was concerning how long the post-ceremony wedding photos can take. So many couples I've worked with in the past felt like they were "stolen away" from cocktail hour or more time that could be spent with their family and friends at their wedding because of photos, but not only did Heidi have every single pose and shot mapped out to the most efficient "T," she brought a light-heartedness and humor to her craft that made the experience so much fun! She even has mastered the art of getting my rambunctious nieces/flower girls (age 4 and 5) to stand still and look at the camera AT THE SAME TIME. Seriously, that never happens! :) Everything from her lighting to her professional demeanor and even her lovely assistant made our wedding photos spectacular, and best of all, we received our photos in only a matter of days!! She must have super powers, because I know we weren't the only wedding she was shooting that weekend! Thank you, Heidi, for being a master at your craft! -

Lauren Sent on 09/13/2020Couldn’t have been any better
Heidi was amazing! She was so easy to work with. I wasn’t sure of what pictures I wanted, and Heidi was able to help me decide what pictures we wanted in our time together. The day of she was so fun and lighthearted, it made the day that much better. I started out stressed and her attitude immediately turned mine around. The pictures turned out better than I could have hoped for! I am so excited to have them for the years to come. On top of that, she got them to me so quickly! Everything was perfect, I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! -

Mindy Sent on 09/12/2020Best Photographer!
Our experience with Heidi was nothing short of absolutely amazing. Her personality immediately made my husband and I feel at ease on our wedding day. She was warm and funny, and very clearly knew what she was doing. Heidi was familiar with the area we got married in, which was a huge plus! It was a foggy day and she was able to capture the light beautifully and direct us in making our photos absolutely perfect. We eloped, and our photos were extremely important to us, as they would be the key to telling the story of our day to our loved ones. We couldn’t be happier with the photos (and every aspect of our experience). We would recommend Heidi to anyone, especially someone unfamiliar with the area planning a destination wedding like we did! -

Our wedding day was so amazing and perfect in every way! From choosing a elopement package/location, vendors they recommended, the final details and the actual day! I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to make their wedding day beautiful, simple and intimate. We loved the officiant Brian Borgia, his wife Heidi the photographer and Spa Bella Mobile Day Spa Services for hair/makeup perfection! -

Caroline Sent on 08/03/2020From COVID nightmare to dream wedding!
I can't say enough good things about Heidi!! I never write reviews but she deserves this exception! My husband and I booked Heidi because she was listed on my Venue's recommended list. From our first meeting I immediately new she was going to be amazing. Heidi is the epitome of professionalism and had the "take charge" attitude I was looking for. I wanted someone I could trust to get the job done and help guide me through the process. Heidi always responds promptly and thoroughly. Our wedding fell in the middle of COVID. Two weeks before the wedding there was another shutdown and our venue pulled out. Last minute we swapped to a new venue. Heidi was so flexible and supportive during this time. She helped reassure us and seamlessly swapped to the new venue. She is so experienced and immediately was familiar with the new site and what shots to take there. She also worked so well and closely with the other vendors which helped ease our load during this hectic time. On the wedding day Heidi was a godsend. She took charge and helped make sure everything happened on time. We have over 800 beautiful photos from the big day its impossible to narrow down our favorites. Heidi was so thorough that guests commented on how good she must be doing - at the same time she blended in to the background seamlessly and never interrupted our day. The wedding was amazing and a big part of that was thanks to Heidi and her assistant Brooke. -

My fiancé and I had our wedding postponed due to covid-19, and Heidi was amazingly flexible and supportive with our plans changing. She recently did a pre wedding photo session with us and we had such a great time! She was in full mask and she was always 6+ feet away. We felt safe around her and her helper, and the photos came out absolutely wonderful! We can’t wait to work with her again on our actual wedding day, and we can’t recommend Heidi enough! -

What a wonderful experience during a time that we didn’t get to celebrate as originally planned but Heidi and Brian made it fun and happy! My husband and I are fussy and awkward when it comes to pictures, but Heidi took on the challenge and did an amazing job! I am hoping she can do our family beach pictures soon! Thank you so very much Heidi and Brian!!! ❤️ -

We chose the Luxe Collection for our wedding photos which included an engagement session. Heidi was flexible with us since we live in San Francisco and even took a video call for our intro meeting. We were impressed with her positive energy, professionalism, and portfolio from the start, so we knew we were in good hands. She made us feel comfortable and carefree during out fun engagement shoot with our dog Dexter at Pebble Beach, even though it was really cold in January 2019! The photos were delivered on time and came out beautifully for both our engagement shoot and for our wedding in May 2019 at Intercontinental the Clement in Monterey. We especially loved the photo slideshow she put together so we can easily share highlight photos with our family & friends a few weeks before the full gallery was ready. It was fun to work with Heidi because you can tell she LOVES her job and it truly shows in her work. Thanks Heidi for capturing our wedding day, we will treasure your photos forever! -

Phil Sent on 12/03/2019Amazing photos!
Beautiful photos! The photos are special because of the way Heidi uses the surroundings to enhance them as the well the way she made us feel at ease. We only met Heidi as we arrived for the ceremony and almost immediately we felt we found a good friend. My wife loves being in front of the camera while I’m a little shy, but Heidi made me feel at ease, I actually enjoyed the photos. It was playful and fun and that all translated to amazing photos. Heidi captured the true spirit of our wedding! Thank you Heidi!!! -
