Hey there, I’m Heather Whitten—photographer, mentor, and unflinching advocate. My mission? To dismantle the fear and shame surrounding the big and small moments of our lives. I want you to feel powerful and valued through them all!
I specialize in capturing the essence of your journey—whether it’s celebrating your body, documenting the day you give birth, or embracing the chaos and joy of family life. My photography isn’t just about snapping pictures; it’s about creating visual stories that resonate and endure.
My journey behind the lens is driven by a deep-seated knowing that everyone deserves to feel powerful and valued in the big and small moments of life.
As a fat, queer, neurodivergent mother of four, my personal experiences have deeply influenced my approach to photography. From navigating infertility and experiencing a full spectrum of reproductive outcomes to my advocacy work as a birth and abortion doula and co-founder of The Abortion Project, I bring a unique perspective to my art. These experiences have taught me that everybody has a story worth celebrating.
If you’re looking for more than just photographs—if you’re seeking a photographer who understands the nuances of life’s most meaningful moments and can capture them with honesty and heart—let’s connect. Together, we’ll create images that tell your story with authenticity and emotion.
