I’M HEATHER!

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

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

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 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.

    We have so many magical photos from our Iceland elopement, it will be difficult to choose which pictures to hang in our house! Thank you Heather and Brodie for your knowledge, creativity and spontaneity! Our wedding day was perfect.
  • Avatar Charlie White ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Heather is an amazing human being and photographer! She always responded to emails quickly and answered all my questions thoroughly. The photos of our wedding turned out even better than I could have imagined. Heather was a pleasure to work with and a delight to have at our wedding 🙂
  • Avatar Joel Reimer ★★★★★ 5 years ago
    Fantastic and professional experience! This was my first photoshoot with my girlfriend. Heather made us feel very comfortable and natural, all the while making it a fun experience. I would highly recommend Tulle & Tweed Photography for a great and worthwhile experience.

    If you were as overwhelmed with choosing a Wedding Photographer as we were, look no further. Heather checked all the boxes for us right from the start:- She is friendly, so fun to be around, and seamlessly works with other vendors, our wedding party and the church we were married in (not to mention parents/grandparents who can get tired of photos quickly). This took an immense amount of pressure off, knowing we were all in happy, capable hands!- Heather is super organized. This is so so sooo important … More as things get crazy hectic in the months/weeks/days leading up to that important day! Heather gave us plenty of time to fill out the pre-wedding questionnaire (which was ultra helpful and I will get to that in another point), so even though we procrastinated, we still had plenty of time to work out any kinks or scheduling questions well before the wedding day.- Her pre-wedding questionnaire was a HUGE help for everyone. Heather asked about any touchy family dynamics, important people we want captured, detailed lists for who would be in the family portraits, and the list goes on! These are items that are so important to understand and think about prior to your wedding day as you don't want to miss anyone or any moment. I am very grateful the questionnaire was so thorough.- She goes through hour by hour (sometimes minute by minute) how the day is going to go with you, and things you need to consider when changing locations or getting a large group of people together. We tended to be very optimistic with timing so thankfully Heather questioned those parts and suggested ways to get the end result we wanted without putting anyone's sanity at risk.- She was flexible with us when setting up an engagement session. We wanted to include cherry blossoms as well as some photos in front of the Legislature buildings (which we knew would be crazy busy on our wedding day). Heather came up with a variety of locations for our engagement shoot to get the photos we wanted, and it was a nice opportunity to feel comfortable in front of the camera.- Heather's photos are a nice mix of documentary-style and posed photos. She provides enough direction to not feel silly in front of the camera, and still maintains natural interactions.- The most important aspect for us from the start was that Heather's photos are timeless. No crazy editing, the photos looked like the day felt and we could not ask for better photos to cherish forever.From start to finish, Heather was a dream to work with. We had so much fun with her and were sad to see her leave at the end of the night. Thank you so much for the amazing work you do, we could not be happier!

    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 Norma Bogart ★★★★★ 7 years ago
    The talent of Heather with Tulle & Tweed Photography is pretty obvious - just check her website! What you don't see is Heather the person and this is what sets her apart. My experience working with her has shown me professionalism, kindness and pretty amazing communication skills. Heather also knows how to direct the scene - which is paramount when shooting a wedding or in my case proposals! I would never hesitate to recommend Tulle & Tweed Photography!Norma BogartBogart Wedding Proposals … More

    Timely, professional, artistic, attentive, empathetic, creative, and fun ... 5 stars. Heather is skilled in capturing magical lighting and creating perfect compositions even in the most ordinary scenes. Heather goes the extra mile with her outstanding customer service. She's one of those unicorns who is both uniquely creative and highly organized. Her detailed intake forms are unmatched. She *truly* wants to get to know her clients' needs and wishes. Heather is THE VERY BEST (and I've … More worked with many photographers, from fashion to lifestyle to events).... Here's my advice for you: Drop everything and hire Heather for your next shoot.
  • Avatar Julien Dickie (Mountainbike Hunter) ★★★★★ 7 years ago
    Tulle and Tweed did our wedding photography in July 2018. They made us feel very comfortable and relaxed, and were so discreet that we didnt even notice they were there. Our photos are beautiful and we will cherish them forever.
