I’M HEATHER!

St. John's Newfoundland Photographer Wedding Photographer Family Photographer Newborn Photographer Maternity

I’m a Full-Time St. John’s, NL Wedding Photographer & Portrait Photographer

I’m a cat lady turned mama to a silly baby girl, a coffee & banana bread fanatic, and nomad who just moved back home in 2025 after many years living all over North America.

I’m relaxed & free spirited, but 100% spreadsheet obsessed. I love the honest & emotive photos that take you back to a feeling, leaning towards documentary & candid photos with a guided experience. Fun, not forced. Easygoing but cool (and a little nerdy, no shame!).

I have been photographing weddings, elopements, love stories and people’s milestones and lives professionally since 2011. After losing my little sister in 2012 with no family photos ever taken, capturing fleeting memories became my passion and forging/strengthening connections is everything.

Inclusion and social justice are big here. All love is welcome and I’ll celebrate you loudly and proudly no matter who you are or where you come from 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY FAQ

St John's Newfoundland Wedding Photographer Leaside Manor Destination Elopement-1

HOW DO WE BOOK YOU AS OUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER?

If I am the best wedding photographer for your needs, first, inquire to check availability for your date. We will get to know each other and see if we jive. Once you’re ready to roll I can send the booking details electronically.

You’ll review your wedding photography quote, wedding agreement, and I require a 30% non-refundable retainer to secure your wedding date.

What is your WEDDING photography style?

My wedding photography style is what I’d call fun, not forced.
Timeless, true to life but stylized, clean, and curated.

My creativity is sparked by human connection, so my wedding photography and portrait work is emotion driven & about the real moments. I want to know what it is you love about each other and your people so I can create photos that embody that. Honest reactions, energy and vibe. I prioritize the experience over the show. I will guide you so you can enjoy the process and so you look your best in your photos

Do YOU TRAVEL?

HECK YES! I travel all over Newfoundland and also work in Nova Scotia and on Vancouver Island (Victoria is my second home) often. I also am always up for an adventure! I love visiting Iceland (where I got married), and I have a few places on my bucket list for weddings/elopements: Scotland, Ireland, Italy, France, England, Japan to name a few!

Whether you’re considering a wedding at home or outside of the east coast or Victoria, I’d love to chat and see how we can make it happen!

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE WEDDING?

After your wedding, I’ll get straight to work backing up and editing your photos. I’ll send a sneak peek gallery of 30+ highlight photos from the wedding within a few days. I edit all of my own photos (no outsourcing here – I like full control of the creative process). The rest of your wedding photos are delivered within 1-3 months of your wedding (as early as possible given wedding season workload).

HOW DO YOU EDIT YOUR PHOTOS?

My photo editing style can be described as warm and true to colour (greens are green, blues are blue), with my signature subtle & refined style thrown in.

Do you photograph other stuff?

While wedding photography is a huge part of what I do, I also photograph families, lifestyle newborn, maternity, commercial work etc.

INCLUSIVE PHOTOGRAPHY

ALL LOVE MATTERS, ALL HUMANS MATTER

I am fiercely passionate about human rights and inclusivity. I photograph and work with people of all orientations, genders, personalities and backgrounds. I have a zero tolerance policy for hate or intolerance.

So what does it mean to be an inclusive photographer (besides just saying I am)? It means using language that is affirming, whether it’s pronouns, names, or preferred terminology. It means that all of my documentation is neutral and supports people across the spectrum. It means donating to causes that support human rights of all kinds, and supporting businesses that are BIPOC, LGBTQ2IA+, and inclusively owned and operated. And it means those I recommend and choose to work alongside are also inclusive.

This also goes for how I photograph my clients. After 14+ years in the photography industry & 300+ weddings in, I’ve learned that no two wedding couples, families or people are the same, so why should your wedding photos or portraits be cookie cutter from a generic shot list? Everything is catered to the unique people I work with.

When working together, I’ll prioritize giving you space to stay grounded and true to yourselves so you look and feel like you.

    Heather and Ebony were absolutely amazing. They were so friendly to work with and even helped with bits of the day that I hadn't planned or foreseen. My husband and I were just blown away and can't get over the quality of the photos and how they get across the feeling of the day.You honestly could not make a better choice - Heather was so put together and organized from our first meeting. She also had a good sense of humor when my husband didn't want to take the romantic photos. I … More need to find other reasons to get a photographer so that I can book her again.
  • Avatar Ashley Halldorson ★★★★★ 6 years ago
    I wish I could have given more stars! Absolutely wonderful to work with, and the pictures are so beautiful.
  • Avatar Christina Nilsen ★★★★★ 5 months ago
    5 stars!!! Heather photographed our vows renewal at Lake Cowichan and we couldn't be happier. We love her beautiful photographs and will cherish these memories for the rest of our lives. She was also super easy to work with and made helpful suggestions that contributed to the planning process from the get-go. Also, ours was a small, intimate gathering with just immediate family, and we were nervous about bringing a photographer into the mix. As it turns out, we didn’t need to worry at all. Heather … More meshed with our families perfectly, and for most of the celebration, we actually forgot she was there. Thank you so much!
  • Avatar Liza Pottinger ★★★★★ 7 years ago
    Heather was incredible! She went above and beyond to capture our wedding, despite the rain! I would highly recommend her to anyone- we are so happy with how our photos turned out.
  • Avatar Rebecca Neal ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    There is no one better than Heather! Not only is she so friendly and fun to work with, but her photos are out of this world! My family has used here for all sorts of photoshoots over the years and we'd never use anyone else. Just phenomenal.
  • Avatar Navio Kwok ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Heather from Tulle & Tweed Photography is an absolute gem! She captured our special day with such grace and finesse, and we can't say enough about her incredible skills. Heather's kind and warm personality put us at ease from the moment we met. Her artistic eye and attention to detail shone through in every shot, and she even went above and beyond by helping my wife with her veil, ensuring she looked stunning (she did).Not only did Heather work her magic behind the camera, but she was … More also a total hypewoman, keeping our energy high and reigning in our excited wedding guests for those much-needed group pictures. Her fast turnaround for the final photos was the cherry on top!We wholeheartedly recommend Heather to anyone in need of a talented and personable photographer. We can see her capturing our future family photos for years to come!
  • Avatar Darren Alexander ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Heather was AMAZING! Both of us don't love getting our photo taken, but Heather made us feel so comfortable! The photo's far exceed our expectations, and we cannot wait to book with Heather again in near the future!
  • Avatar Gnilane Ndiaye ★★★★★ 6 years ago
