“It says something about the skills of the photographer when you’re favorite photo of you and your partner was a photo they took of you at SOMEONE ELSE’S wedding. We can’t say more amazing things about Pine & Forge.We were introduced to Heidi (primary photographer) via a friend who’s wedding we attended. Beyond Heidi’s interaction with the crowd that day, and her ability to step in last minute when the officiant didn’t show up (TALK ABOUT GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND), the photos taken of the Bride and Groom were AMAZING. The balance of the color, the candid shots, the detail shots with the perfect level of focus, the incorporation of the venue’s most breathtaking shots - Pine & Forge covered it all.Heidi & Faith were the two photographers on the day of our wedding and between the two of them, they thought through everything! Even down to coordinating the First Look with both the Bride/Father of the Bride and the Bride/Groom, the men were treated like POTUS with constant communication where they were/what they were looking at in order to avoid seeing the Bride too early.Beyond all that, the most important thing to mention is how relaxed Heidi & Faith made us feel. They are calming, patient, encouraging, and creative. If you’re looking for that upcoming special moment to be captured, look no further - Pine & Forge will take care of you with white glove service.”
“Pine and Forge did an incredible job capturing the biggest day of my life! At every point, Heidi’s passion for what she does and intentionality in telling our unique story shined through. From the very beginning at our consultation call, to following up right after my wedding with beautiful sneak peeks, we were really delighted with Heidi and her dedicated team! Guests at the wedding were even commenting on how professional, kind, and thorough the photographer and videographer were.”
“Heidi is amazing! Not only does she take phenomenal photos, but she makes you feel like you’ve known her forever. We had the pleasure of shooting with Heidi for our engagement and Wedding photos, and she did an incredible job. I knew from the moment I saw her gallery online that we would have gorgeous images to look back on, and Heidi did not disappoint. Heidi has been incredible from the start; she is warm, welcoming, and wonderful! She was there to take photos, but she did so much more! From helping with corsages to even bustling my dress, Heidi went above and beyond for us, and I could not be more grateful for the opportunity to share our Wedding Day with her. I am so glad I found Pine and Forge when I did; there is no one else I would have rather worked with! Thank you for everything, Heidi! I am and will continue recommending Pine and Forge to everyone because I am OBSESSED.”
“I loved what I saw on social media and saw that they have been to my venue before. Once I talked with Heidi and we spoke about packages, I knew Pine & Forge was the perfect fit!! She was very nice and helpful throughout the whole process. The photographers and videographers were all so nice and encouraging. They made us all feel so comfortable taking pictures and hyped us up the whole time!!”
“We will recommend Heidi to every bride we come across because my experience was literally top notch. She was so invested in along sure she got every single part of our wedding day and more. She even did a small family session for us. Not only did it rain on the beach on our wedding day but she was so quick to adjust her camera and catch everything that happened in the rain. We are so happy with the decision we made and we will continue to recommend her to everyone we know. ”
“Heidi was wonderful! She made us feel like we were the most important people on our special day! She went above and beyond for us and we are so happy with the quality of her work!”
“From the start, Heidi has been great to work with. When I came across Heidi’s business, I loved her aesthetic. The photos and videos from other’s weddings had me hooked. After speaking with her over the phone, I was excited to hire her and for her to capture our day. She also helped me make certain decisions about/on my wedding day when I was overwhelmed! I had so many friends and family members compliment her skill and ability. From the way she organized the day to get through pictures quickly and seamlessly to then getting our beautiful photos/video back.”
“Heidi’s friendliness and professionalism are very clear from the start! I really loved working with her, and she always made us feel comfortable when we took photos. I knew when I got engaged that I wanted to invest in photography/videography and I wanted to make sure that I could trust whoever I hired to capture our very special day. As soon as we got our engagement photos back, I knew we made the right choice! Communication was super easy as well, and she listened to what we wanted. On the day of the wedding, Heidi handled a lot of unplanned events (which will happen) like a champ and kept us on track! At one point, both she and my wedding coordinator were kind enough to even help me secure my bustle with safety pins as it kept coming undone. My family and friends even noticed how Heidi and her team were always in there, trying to capture all the moments. The biggest surprise to me was the drone they used for video! Our guests loved that Heidi and her team amplified the energy and made fun suggestions like starting a soul train line! If you are looking for a photographer/videographer look no further! Pine & Forge is the best!!”
“From the start, Heidi has been great to work with. I did a destination wedding and didn’t know any photographers in Florida. When I came across Heidi’s page, I loved her aesthetic. The photos and videos from other’s weddings had me hooked. After speaking with her over the phone, I was excited to hire her and for her to capture our day. She also helped me make certain decisions about/on my wedding day when I was overwhelmed! I had so many friends and family members compliment her skill and ability. ”
“Heidi was hands down amazing!!! She was friendly, professional, and on top of everything. I can not say enough great things about her!”
“Heidi and her team were AMAZING. Personally I am terrible in front of a camera but my fiancé was a natural. Heidi made us both equally as comfortable. Heidi was fabulous, phenomenal, awesome, simply incredible when it came to her art. We had numerous friends get married this year and ALL of them were jealous of our pictures. I myself could not believe how amazing they were. Heidi, thank you a million times for all your attention to detail and professionalism. There is no way our wedding could have been captured as beautifully without you. For the memories we need from a wedding, Heidi and her team did it all. You girls were more than we could have imagined! Thank you again Heidi so much for all you did for us. We are forever thankful.”
“Heidi and her team were incredible!!!! From our first meeting to now, they have been so professional, flexible, accommodating, and just got it done! They were so much fun to work with and made all of the shoots such a blast! They kept us relaxed and genuinely smiling and laughing. I don’t know how they did it, but they truly captured the magic of our weekend! THANK YOU PINE&FORGE for memories of a lifetime! We highly recommend Heidi and her team!!! ”
“Heidi and her team were so comfortable to work with- it felt like we knew her before our wedding day! The team worked efficiently, executing all needed photos before the ceremony which was exactly what we asked for! We absolutely LOVED our photos so much that we are so eager to see the rest! Also, Heidi was like an extra MOH- grabbing the polaroid camera some batteries when it died, helping me get a stain off my dress and making us feel confident that our wedding was captured!”
“Heidi is the best! She was recommended to us when my husband and I got engaged in July 2021. We had the best engagement photo session with her, it was so much fun! So, naturally we asked her to capture our wedding day! Once again she did amazing!”
“Heidi and her team was amazing. I never second guessed anything wedding day. She was able to work with our videographer and his team as well as family and friends. She was punctual and honestly executed flawlessly. We even got some sneak peeks back while on our honeymoon. ”
“We saw that Pine & Forge had shot an elopement at Bean Point before so it meant so much peace in choosing Heidi as our photographer. Heidi was so amazing and patient with the chaos of our elopement! She was so sweet and very talented! You won’t regret hiring her! ”
“Heidi was amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! She was able to work with my budget and help me have a payment plan that worked for me. Every photo idea I had, she was able to do for me, and everyone had good things to say about her to me. She made everyone feel comfortable, which made the photos more fun and enjoyable to take! Highly recommend! ”
“Heidi was such a light during my wedding day- she is so kind, helpful and so fun to be around- which is so important on your wedding day since you spend so much time with your photo and video team! During our phone calls prior to the wedding she made me feel like my vision was understood and then executed exactly what I wanted! Heidi is amazing to work with and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Heidi and her team did amazing work! They were so easy to work with and made it so fun! Thank you so much for making our special day so beautiful!”
“Heidi and her team are amazing. We have no words to truly describe how incredible they were, from start to finish. We were out-of-towners, so we set up everything virtually, but she made us so comfortable in front of the camera come day-of the wedding, made us feel at ease every step of the way, and truly knows how to get amazing shots. We worked together on everything I wanted to get out of our day in regards to photos & video, and absolutely made sure that we did not come short of that. Heidi and her team are attentive, timely, friendly, and someone you can count on to capture your day exactly how you envision it. Again, we cannot thank them enough! ”
“Hiring Heidi was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I am SO glad we hired her to capture one of our most special days. Heidi was very professional and had great ideas for different shots for the video. She also was able to make it all look so natural and easy which we loved. She sent us the sneak peek video trailer 1-2 days after our wedding! It was incredible. We were trying to decide if we needed a photographer and a videographer and if it was worth the extra cost. I 100% believe it is worth it. I highly recommend Pine & Forge. ”
“Heidi was amazing. Not only did she take beautiful photos, she made us feel so comfortable while getting those real, candid photos. ”
“Heidi is amazing! My husband and I are not the most photogenic, we had so much fun taking photos with Heidi. Our whole wedding day was very organized with her help and went so smoothly. Our sneak peaks were out a couple days after the wedding and looked incredible! I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to shoot our special day, I’d recommend her to anyone, she’s truly the best! I’ve had nothing but compliments on our pictures and how great our photographers were. ”
“My fiancé hates taking pictures. You would have had no idea from watching our photo shoot with Heidi. She made it so fun and easy, and was so accommodating of what we were looking for. She has very clear vision and gives great direction, and was great with our pup! (Including our dog in the shoot was important to us.)”
“Our sunset photos turned out even better than I anticipated! Going through the photos, we could see the authentic smiles and laughter throughout the entire session because Heidi made it such a fun and comfortable experience for us! ”
“Absolutely so happy!!! I am from out of state and I couldn’t have been happier with the results I got. It’s scary booking through someone you can’t meet but Heidi went above and beyond. She showed up on time, was very helpful, and taking photos was such a breeze and so fun! 10/10 would recommend! Got my sneak peeks 2 days later and cried. I can’t wait to see the rest ”
“Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the most important decisions, but was the easiest for us! Taking pictures can be very awkward for some people (like us!), but she makes you feel so comfortable and the experience we had with her made her work that much better. She does an incredible job capturing the emotion that day — you could see it all over our faces. How many people can say their photographer has become their friend?! ”
“I hired Heidi based on her website portfolio, fair price, military discount. She’s also super kind and responds quickly. We had so much fun on our engagement shoot!”
“We hired Heidi because of her personality and her great eye for getting the best shots. Heidi was so great at getting us to open up and feel comfortable in front of the camera. It all started with our engagement photos and I was won over from then on and knew I chose the right person to shoot our wedding! ”
“Heidi was very easy to work with and laid back. She incorporated all the shots we sent her and was very accommodating when other shots/poses were asked for on the spot. Stylistically, her work is beautiful and we hope to work with her in the future for all of our photography needs!”
“We had an absolute amazing time working with Heidi for our engagement photo shoot. She was able to make the experience one we both will always remember. We decided to have two engagement shoots: one in Florida and the other in Virginia with two different photographers. We both walked away from the shoot with Heidi saying it will be hard to top the level of fun and would also be shocked that any other photographer could be as personable and professional as Heidi. We are forever grateful we decided to go with Heidi for our Florida engagement shoot and we would recommend her services to everyone wanting professional photos taken. ”
“Heidi was so good to work with! She communicated with me when I was busy with planning other details and always made sure we kept the ball rolling. On the day of, she really took control and got everything we needed which was super helpful to me since I was trying to just take everything in.”
“Heidi is the type of person that anyone can get along with instantly. She makes sure that everyone she is working with is relaxed and comfortable, which just adds to her incredible photos. Heidi is so much more than a photographer / videographer. She is a friend to all, she is a support system and a resource to all of her clients, and she is a positive influence to have on any day that you want documented. When we decided to get married, we knew that we had to have Heidi as our photographer. Even as plans changed because of the pandemic and the wedding moved to a different state, Heidi made sure to keep up with us every step of the way, and reassured us any time that we needed it. Despite the stress of the big day, Heidi kept all attendees (including the bride and groom!) smiling and got photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We couldn’t have any higher of a recommendation for Pine & Forge.”
“We reached out to Heidi only a few days before the wedding! She arrived on time and made sure to do her best to make our day special. She went above and beyond and was so easy to work with! We are very very happy.”
“Heidi was amazing!! She knew exactly how to get awesome shots that I’ll cherish forever. I loved getting a sneak peak so quickly too! ”
“Heidi exceeded our expectations, she stepped up and made our wedding day run smooth without any hesitation. She made us feel comfortable and relaxed during pictures and is such a sweet person. ”
“Heidi was fabulous to work with! We had numerous challenges and changes to our wedding and other events. Heidi was flexible, professional, accommodating, and a total joy on our wedding day! The sneak peek photos are absolutely stunning and we can’t wait to see the rest!”
“Heidi was absolutely amazing. Wedding ceremony plans changed about half a dozen times with the final plan coming together as guests boarded. She was able to easily adjust and had great input when it came to new location and picture spots. We are so grateful we chose her for our special day.”
“Heidi made our wedding day fun and memorable in every way. We gave her creative license and she more than exceeded our expectations. From family moments to a first dance on the waters edge to prompting laughter and memories that will last a lifetime. Heidi, thank you for your professionalism in every long-distance correspondence, and for your fun and warm personality on our special day. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect person to mark the moments we want to remember. ”
“Heidi and her second shooter, Janel, were so great to have on our special day! They brought a fun, light vibe to the day and made us feel like stars! Their direction skills are wonderful to ensure you have GREAT photos!”
“Heidi was awesome! Better than I could have hoped for. First time being married, never really booked a photographer for anything but she was extremely helpful. We met a few days prior to the wedding so she could meet us and hear about what we were expecting for the wedding. On the day of, I had a miscommunication with my almost-hubby about car keys and we had only a few minutes to make a decision so Heidi got 7 people and a dog into her little Ford Focus and got me, my bridal party and the dog to the beach with time to spare! If that isn’t making it work I don’t know what is. Heidi was extremely professional, knowledgeable about the area, beach weddings etc and we just had the best day and I’m so looking forward to seeing the rest of the pictures! ”
“Heidi was incredible. We hired Heidi to capture our wedding and we couldn’t have been happier with her! We seriously felt like we had known her for years, the vibe was so comfortable. She was kind, funny, and genuinely caring. We were honestly taken back by it all and so impressed. She sent us sneak peek photos the day after and we are so excited to see the rest! We highly recommend Pine & Forge!”
“My husband and I chose Heidi to shoot our private beach elopement and she was an absolute dream to work with! We felt like we had known her forever. She was super professional but also made the whole experience fun and beautiful! The sneak peek photos she sent us are gorgeous!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was amazing and we highly recommend her!”
“Heidi did great and knew exactly how to coordinate everything she did amazing. She did great with getting the pictures quickly and efficiently but still beautifully. She also made taking the pictures fun and enjoyable. ”
“Heidi is amazing! Would recommend her to anyone. She made my fiancé and I feel very comfortable when we were super nervous about take our photos. She made us laugh and cry (In a good way). Thank you Heidi for our amazing pictures! ”
“Working with Heidi was a great experience. She did both my engagement pictures and wedding. It was extremely effortless from my point. The wedding day went smoothly and the pictures came out amazing. The best part was that she captured the raw relaxing photos that made some of memories even more memorable ”
“Heidi was amazing. Her eye for the right shot was amazing! We changed things the day of and she was very flexible. I would hire her again for any major event!”
“Heidi is so great! She does a wonderful job of capturing clients as they are. We wanted pictures that looked like us and that’s exactly what we came away with. I also totally recommend doing engagement pictures with her so that you have a chance to see how kind and easy to work with she is before you get to the wedding day! ”
“Heidi was an absolute joy to work with! We loved having her shoot both our engagement and wedding photos. We would definitely recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!”
“Heidi did SUCH an amazing job! All of our photos turned out better than I could have hoped for and the fact that she was flexible with a few last minute things on timing was awesome. I love that she and her second shooter seemed like they actually had fun as well. They were only scheduled to be with us until 8 that night and they stuck around to get pictures of our fireworks show and even did a little dancing of their own before packing up! I had family pulling them every which way and they were so easy going. Also, we booked over a year in advance and between family hardships, switching jobs, AND surviving a “500 year” flood in our town we never got the opportunity to meet up prior to the wedding and upon her arrival it was so laid back! I would highly recommend Pine & Forge to anyone looking for an amazing photography experience. I can not thank her enough!”
