Hi there! I'm Heather.


I was born and raised in enchanting southwest New Mexico, and currently work from Deming, New Mexico. I am the mother of two beautiful boys, collector of Calvin and Hobbes clippings, lover of jeans and t-shirts, and a portrait photographer.


As a counselor, I have learned to bring out a person's true self--their goals, dreams, passions, and fantasies. I have loved getting to know people and finding out what makes them tick. Since finding photography, I have become able to translate your relationship with yourself and the world into art and preserve who you are today for the ages to come.


When I am not photographing people, you will still find me balancing precariously on a rock or crawling through the dust with a camera in my hand. I am exploring the world close up, finding new in the old, excitement in the mundane, and worlds within worlds.
