Hi, I’m Heather —
the heart behind the lens at Chunky Monkey Photography!

I’m a wife to an amazing husband (who also happens to grill a mean steak), a mom to three wild and wonderful kids, and a proud Yaya to three sweet grandbabies. I’m also lucky enough to have a crew of adorable nieces and nephews who keep life loud, busy, and full of love.

We’re a beach-loving bunch — give us the ocean breeze, sandy toes, and a beach umbrella, and we’re in our happy place. Destin, Florida is one of our favorite spots, and I love meeting families there for dreamy beach sessions!

My love for photography started with my grandmother. She passed down more than just life lessons — she passed down the belief that capturing memories is one of the most beautiful gifts you can give. That lesson stuck with me, and it’s why I do what I do today.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me cheering on my kids at soccer, playing with my grandbabies, or sneaking in a lunch date with my husband.

My heart is in every session, and my goal is to give you images that bring back the feelings, not just the moments — memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

I can’t wait to connect with you and help capture your family in a way that feels magical, meaningful, and completely you.
