*I DO NOT ACCEPT ANY "DRIVE BY" FRIEND REQUESTS. PLEASE LEAVE ME A PIC COMMENT, LIST, OR TAG FIRST. THANKS.*

Hello beautiful people! Thank you SO much for stopping by my page and checking out my portfolio!
I have been modeling since 2005, and have found this to be one of my biggest passions.
On top of my 6 years of experience, I am also: professional, easy going, determined, focused, energetic, creative, versatile, easily coached, and most importantly FUNNNNN to work with! I feel that all these qualities combined together make me an asset to anyone's portfolio. I'm not conceited, I'm just very aware my strengths and capabilites as a model.
I love to work out and stay fit and healthy. I recently recieved my NESTA certificate for personal fitness training!
Unfortunately, due to a very busy scheudle, I am unavailable to travel outside of the Bay Area for shoots.
Please take the time to check out my work and feel free to comment on anything that catches your eye. Constructive critisism is always welcome with me as well.
Thank you and God Bless

*NOTE TO PHOTOGRAPHERS*
I am currently being EXTREMELY selective in who I work with. I am very passionate about my work and want only the best for my port. Also, please dont take offense if I decline your offer or dont respond. I have been doing this for several years now and I know what I am looking for in a photographer (lighting techniques, angles, photoshop skills, etc) I have to feel that your work can contribute something to my port beyond what it already has, and if I dont think you have what I need, I wont waste your time or mine.

*NUDE POLICY*
I DON'T do them. Its that simple. I will however, do implied nudity with select photographers, but ONLY if I feel that the cocept is tasteful and classy. It all depends on my level of comfort on the shoot and whether or not I think it will be beneficial to my portfolio. If it is not something that is discussed prior to the shoot though, then don't just expect it.

*SCHEDULE/AVAILABILITY*
I work full time so my only availability for shoots is on Saturdays and Sundays. (I prefer Saturdays.) It also helps to know a couple weeks in advance if you want to work with me so that I have enough time to prepare and get everything together for the shoot.

*BOOKING*

*TATTOOS/PIERCINGS*
I have 4 tattoos: cherries on my left ankle (small), a cross on the left side of my upper back (small), a flower with a hummingbird hovering over it on my right hip bone (medium), and the SF 49ers logo with the word "faithful" underneath on the inside of my left wrist (small). I have four piercings: ears, navel, nose, and my monroe. If you feel that photoshopping these out of the pics will make a stronger image, thats fine with me. However, I would prefer that they be included in the pictures, as they make me unique.

*WORDS FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHERS*
"Heather, I wish I can clone you and keep you for every time I need a model or someone to brighten my day with a smile. You are delightful to work with and you make me want to do much better than the last. You inspire me with your personality, work ethic and passion for photography and modeling. You motivate me with your level of comfort artistry and drive to get the shot. Like I said, I wish I can clone you! My second wish is that we could create more."
- Javier of Brilliant Moments Photography

"A pleasure to work with! Between input, enthusiasm and communication, I couldn't ask for more. Here is a model willing to take part in all aspects of the shoot as well! Pre-planning, and staying in touch for post-production are both a great trait to have; and she's got em' both. I will be contacting you again... Thanks Heather!"
-Moses of DropJaw Photography

"In a sea of people that pretend to be models, Heather stands tall. Heather is a great communicator, punctual, prepared, non-complaining, trained, takes direction easily, professional and a joy to work with. Mayhemers take note."
-David Art

"Heather is a delight to work with in every respect...beautiful, energetic, creative, and spontaneous. I loved shooting with her! Although part of our shoot was planned out, much of it was designed to be a bit of an adventure... seeking the perfect urban landscape, the perfect light and moments to shoot. Heather thrived with these freedoms and we had a sensational and artistically rewarding photo shoot. I can't wait to see where our next photographic adventure takes us!"
-Ron of Ethereal Pixels

"Heather is amazing, she was on time, and ready to shoot. I love her wonderful smile and her grace and elegance. Heather was willing to try new things and contribute to the success of the session. I would love to shoot with her again."
-Alex of Studio La Donna Photography

"Heather, I just wanted to drop a note to tell you what a wonderful young woman you are. You have all the attributes that it takes to makes a model- Great looks, figure, desire, posing skills, and most of all your fantastic attitude/personality. You are very much at ease in front of the lens and it shows in all of our frames. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to work with me and to create some wonderful pictures and memories."
-Frank Rehm

"Heather is a photographers dream to work with. She's amazingly creative and spontaneous. Heather is not only very friendly and easy to work with, she also takes direction extremely well. If she tells you she's going to meet you somewhere, you can count on here being there... on time and ready to go. And if you hadn't noticed yet... She's also got an amazing pair of legs!"
-Steve of PixelWorks Studios

"Heather is wonderful to work with.  She is very easy going and I love how she gracefully moves from pose to pose and expression to expression.  Heather is very creative and brings ideas to the shoot that make it even better.  Its a real pleasure working with such a nice person who gives her all for the shot, yet is relaxed and wants to have fun too!  I would highly recommend working with Heather as she definitely won't disapoint.  I know I am definitely going to shoot with Heather again!"
