Heather Leggett Photography Blog: A Bend, Oregon Photographer

I had a great time working with these two wonderful families yesterday! They were troopers braving the chill and walking through Drake park to get some great family shots. Enjoy your sneak peek guys!!

I had so much fun meeting this adorable family last night! Their boys just turned one and are as cute as can be! They did great braving the chill in the air to get our shots. Here is a sneak peek from our session!

Congratulations to Mark and Erin who were wed on Saturday! It was a beautiful day filled with so much love and joy! It was such a pleasure to witness their love and be a part of their day. They were such troopers following me all over the downtown area to get the perfect shots. They even endured the crowds of Oktoberfest! It was quite the spectacle, everyone kept cheering for them as we walked through the crowds. It was really sweet to see the community so happy for this wonderful couple. Here are a few images from the day!

I had a fun shoot with Meg on Friday evening! She’s a very sweet and beautiful girl! We met at one of my favorite spots, the downtown area of Bend! We started out taking a few shots in nearby Drake Park to get a few fun sunflare shots by the river, then we moved to the fun alleys of the downtown area. So much fun! Here’s a sneak peek of our session!

This is my fave!! Love the sass and grunge! What a rock star!!

I had the wonderful priveledge of witnessing and photographing a proposal on Thursday! It was so amazing!! This couple is from Texas and the groom to be organized a surprise trip to Oregon for his girl on their anniversary! They went on a dig to Richardson’s Rock Ranch, where I played a guide and rock expert so as not to give away the surprise. It was so fun! The ring was hidden inside an amethyst geode, which I planted and directed her to. She pryed it open to find the real “rock” inside! It was such a great moment!! Afterward we met up at Smith Rock for an official engagement session. It was a wonderful day and I’m so glad I got to be a part of it! Here are a few pictures from our day!

Judd and Thuy, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!!

I love pictures taken from behind. There’s something about them that feels like you’re peeking into someone’s life and capturing a moment in time. I also absolutely love black & white photography, especially with grain. When I processed this picture I just had to stop and stare at it for a while. It’s one of those moments…

Found this birdhouse the other day when we were out and about. I love the rustic look to it and how it looks against the bark of the tree. I added a little texture in processing to give it an added rustic element. This will go into my nature collection as well.

Hey Ross! I had a great time meeting and working with you and your mom last night! Here’s a little sneak peek of your session! I love the fall colors we caught in these. I will email you guys with a password to your gallery as soon as it’s ready! Have a great rest of the week!

I just had to include this “outtake”!

Lanie I had so much fun meeting and your mom! You were such a dream to work with! I am having a hard time picking favorites here, there’s so many I love. Here’s a few to tide you over until I get the rest finished.

I loved this outfit you wore, soo cute!

I just had to get a little funky with the boots pic!

Our cool brick wall with the neon glow in the background!

The purple door your mom loved. I love how the poles and flowers in the background are purple too!

Pretty pink sunset with some vintagey processing added
