Working with Heather to photograph my 40,000 sq. ft. interior project was fun, educational and efficient. Heather brought a compelling eye and composition to my images. She was well-organized and managed my expectations every step of the way, educating me about (process) more than the general perception of the "point and click" that goes into the preparation and execution of every architectural shot. We were fortunate to capture impactful before-and-after imagery with her diligent effort to maintain integrity in the points of view over time at each site visit. I also appreciated her suggestion to utilize cost-sharing with other project partners –– we took full advantage. The final retouched images were nothing short of architectural beauty! She is a wonderful partner whom I highly recommend.
