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.

    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 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 Lesley A ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Heather was absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish. She goes into intense detail to ensure that you are getting the pictures that you want. Our first phone call turned into an hour and half conversation just getting to know one another and it shows in her work how much detail, effort, and passion she has for photography.
    Like many other weddings, my husband and I had to postpone our January 2021 wedding reception to 2022, but we had decided to still get married with just our parents,
    … More wedding party, and siblings. Heather was so great with the changes and really went out of her way to be there for us.
    Heather was also very professional and patient. She made posing for pictures fun and was so easy to talk to, it felt as if she was a part of the party. She kept us updated as she was editing our photos and gave us some sneak peaks to look at. We felt that she was very fast and the finished product was incredible. My husband and I still find ourselves looking at our photo gallery together and can still remember the feelings we felt when those photos were taken.

    Heather is an incredible photographer, and captured our wedding day perfectly!!! Our friends and family kept commenting on how lovely and professional she was throughout the day. And following the event, they were in AWE of our photos. We could not be happier with our photos and the wonderful service provided. Thank you Heather for capturing these memories so beautifully, we're forever grateful (Alex & Josh).
  • Avatar Jen C ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Heather is worth every penny! I was super stressed trying to figure out the wedding day timeline and she was able to come up with one that worked out perfectly. Her pictures are stunning and she's great at keeping everything going smoothly and staying on time. Heather makes you feel comfortable immediately and has some fun tricks to get rid of any nerves or awkwardness you might have in front of the camera.
    We would 100% choose Heather again!
  • Avatar Bert & Teleza Fawdrey ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Working with Tulle & Tweed Photography has been wonderful. We first worked with them to capture our wedding and they made being in front of the camera really simple and fun. We worked with them the next three years to capture our growing family and it's something we look forward to every year. They are always prepared, encouraging and patient. I'm always surprised by the in between moments captured. Grateful to have found them and love having someone we can go to year after year.
  • Avatar Gnilane Ndiaye ★★★★★ 6 years ago
    Heather was not only an incredible photographer, she was also a breeze to worth with start to finish. From booking the session, to tips for prep and posing- she sure new how to make me feel like a confident goddess. The end photos were beyond my expectations!
  • Avatar Hannah Brinser ★★★★★ 10 months ago
    The quality of Heather’s work is ABSOLUTELY phenomenal. Her prices are genuinely a steal for everything she does. She was the most grounding, calming presence on our wedding day and I’m so grateful we chose her! She was ready to jump in and help with anything we needed. She went above and beyond for us, answering all of our questions and providing recommendations. She even took one of our elderly relatives back to her hotel for us! (Literally, what other vendor does that?!) The photography process … More was so natural and not awkward at all (I guess I just kind of assumed it would be?) But she is so good at making you feel comfortable and like you can be yourself with your partner! I would choose Heather a million times again. One of the best choices we made for our wedding day.

THANKS FOR CONSIDERING ME!

You have so many choices when it comes to your wedding photography or for capturing your memories and milestones.
