I brought a gown for the photo but was wearing jeans, a little black shirt, and a string a pearls to the session. "Let's just first try a few shots now, before you put on the gown, just for fun", she said. In fact, some of the most wonderful photos were the natural ones, in my jeans with a brick backdrop in her studio. Jessica is a true artist....just the best. Raves!

She was incredibly thoughtful and made sure every person who was important to us had special photos with us, which meant so much. Her energy was calm, kind, and effortless, and she truly made the day even better. We can't thank her enough and would love to work with her again in a heartbeat.

I am excited to be able to write Becca's first review!…read more During the planning process, my wife and I looked at dozens of photographers. After a while, they start to look the same. You notice that every wedding looks either like: an Absolut ad with slightly not attractive enough people for a magazine ad, or an American Apparel ad with way overdressed people. We met with a few, who were way more expensive than we were hoping, and figured we'd have to go with someone we weren't completely happy with, just because we couldn't find someone we really liked. Enter: Becca Heuer. We were referred by a friend of a friend, who heard of our photographer troubles. So, we met with Becca, expecting another presentation that had been given a thousand times before. But, instead, she didn't try to sell us on how she knows secret spots of beauty or how many wedding she does a year. Instead, she let her work speak for her. Before the wedding, we felt she did a great job keeping up communication without being overbearing. She even agreed to go to our venue, even though she had shot there before, to scope it out with us to get a feel for our style. Rather than forcing us to adopt her style, she worked with ours, which is quite a refreshing feeling. On the day of, she was amazing. She entered this machine-like art mode in which she was seemingly everywhere, getting shots of everything. But, she was never in the way. You'd turn your head and there she was, taking a picture before you realized she was setting up, and then gone; onto the next picture. Even only seeing the previews so far, I am amazed. Completely, totally, and unrepentingly amazed at her shots. It's kind of like the sound you hear when people are eating things that are amazingly delicious, except in pictures. They're just beautiful. I cannot add enough superlatives to describe her work as a professional photographer and artist.

Dorothy was so calm and focused on the task at hand. It was an art for her and it showed. The composition, the color, the saturation were all perfect. She even used Photoshop to erase the unavoidable refuse that was on the beach. (Ah, Chicago.) She helped me so much with calming me down during the engagement and wedding photo shoots. When i would unconsciously be gripping my soon to be husband's shoulder, she told me to breathe. When i would find my self holding my breath, again she calmly told me how everything was going to be perfectly beautiful. Honestly I believe it's because of her, the engagement pictures were wonderful, and the wedding album.....magical.
