Great experience with Heidi Rakas Photography! Heidi is professional, makes you feel at ease during the shoot, and captures the most magical moments. She has done several shoots for me and I am always impressed with the photos. She also helped me pick out some beautiful wall art for our family room. Highly recommend. :) More...

Heidi is an absolute GEM! Very professional and sooo sweet! My husband and I were very lucky to have her take our engagement pictures and wedding photos. Not only is she great with communication she is open to creativity and ideas! On our wedding day we had a bit of a crisis and Heidi stepped in to save the day! She was present through the whole day capturing so many memories. AND she got us all our edits back within the shortest time I've ever hear a photographer do that! Needless to say our wedding day wouldn't have been the same without Heidi! More...

Heidi is very professional and easy to work with. Even when my kids were being difficult she was able to capture flawless photos of all of us. I would definitely recommend Heidi for any type of photos, but especially if you’re in the market for lifestyle or family photos. She’s amazing at capturing those special moments, turning what would normally be candid photos into something extraordinary! More...

Heidi was amazing! She was super patient, sweet, and took amazing photos! She did our newborn/family shoot and was able to get my two year old, newborn, German Shepherd, hubby, and myself all into a perfect photo which I thought was not going to be achievable. We will definitely always go back to her! More...

Yesterday was one of the hardest days of my famlies life, we laid my father in law to rest. I was in a rush to find a photographer the night before, and a friend referred this photographer. I messaged her and she was so quick to respond!
I know a funeral photo shoot is not the norm, but she had an opening and came through for us! I cannot say enough about how wonderful she is �
She was prompt, respectful, kind, gracious, generous and it was a pleasure and an honor to have her be our photographer in such a difficult time. She made the day a little better to bear, and we look forward to our memories captured. I highly recommend her for any pictures you need done. I cannot say enough about her!

I’ve always had a love for photography, and capturing moments that were captivating, emotive, and natural. I knew it was time to turn my passion into a legal business when I was being hired by friends and aquaintences to provide photography services for them.

My photography is captivating, emotive, and natural. I love creating art and capturing my clients natural beauty.
