    The BEST Photographer EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI!

    My wife and I were looking for a photographer that incorporates a lot of color and personality into their photos and we found that with Emily. We live in Massachusetts so when we were certain we wanted to book Emily she was kind enough to do a zoom call with us which I had to do while at work and it didn’t even phase her one bit! My wife and I connected with her from the start and knew she would be the perfect fit to photograph AND video our wedding. Because we were out of state most of our planning was done remotely, but Emily offers a free couples engagement shoot which she was able to accommodate our demanding schedules and do our engagement shoot on the one single day of the year we were going to be free and nearby in VA. We LOVED our engagement shoot photos and it only made us even more excited for wedding day. On wedding day Emily and her Husband, as well as another photographer on her team arrived right on time and began doing their thing. She got such wonderful photos that only a true professional could get. I’m a rather difficult person to please, but she met my demands. It rained on our wedding day, but it didn’t phase her one bit (she said the lighting is sometimes better when it rains) and she got incredible shots. Her husband was always right there at the right time getting video, her team has great microphones that caught our vows, and all the photos really highlighted the colorful flowers and atmosphere of our wedding which was exactly what I wanted. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Emily Heskett and her team for your wedding and am certain there is no better photographer this side of the Mississippi! I shared some of my favorite photos from our big day below!

    Outstanding Photographer

    Emily has an impeccable eye. Her photography is amazing. She captures the most stunning photo's of the bride, groom, wedding party and families. From the first wedding we did together, I knew she was was very talented. She also is very organized, efficient, and returns the portfolios to the wedding couples on time. Emily is always at the top of my list when I am recommending photographers.

    Emily is extremely talented & goes above & beyond

    Emily captured incredible photos of a February wedding at our venue! We were so worried about some red mud areas from excavation work ruining some of their wedding photos & Emily insured that there was no red mud in any photos! That was extra work for her to do & she happily did that for her wedding couple & myself!! She goes above & beyond with her work. I love that she asked me, the owner of a new event space, what she could capture for me for advertising! That was so sweet of her. I gave her specifics & she delivered just that! It’s important to hire a professional photographer that listens to your vision. I can tell her heart is deeply invested in her photography. It isn’t just a job to her. Anyone that works with Emily will notice that! It’s refreshing to meet a hard worker with so much passion! Emily will not let you down!

I'm based in Blacksburg, Virginia, but love to travel! I will travel up to 1-hour one way without a traveling fee.
For weddings, I provide 50+ images per hour of coverage. Most weddings end up being between 500-600 total. Engagement sessions, which are included with all wedding packages, last about 1.5 hours, and you receive 30 fully edited images.
For weddings, my husband of a decade and best friend, Ben, is my lead videographer and takes all the footage while I focus on photography. (He enjoys the drone the most!) I then edit all the images and video footage to match in style to deliver a seamless package!
