more about me

this is us.

Hello, I'm Heather and I started Vallentyne Photography almost 20 years ago!

I'm so excited that you have found my photography. I believe that getting to know my clients is the #1 way to ensure an awesome experience.

I'd love to tell you a little more about me!

Here are a few things you should know...

-I have been married to my husband & best friend since 8-19-07.

-Our first dates were surfing and snowboarding together, these are still our favorite dates.

-We love dogs. Kylie and Roger were in our wedding and Charlie is our current love!

-We have 2 wonderful boys, Ben and Curren, they make life worth living.

-We live in Oceanside California and love our beach community.

-I started in photography working for a small women's surf magazine, was a photo editor for another surf magazine, and shot catalogs for many surf & skate industry brands, before falling in love with wedding & portrait photography.

-I am a health nut who loves coffee, sushi, and yoga! (ok, and cookies!)

-I have a shot over 1000 portraits and weddings in my career… So far!

-I love my couples and love my job. The best part, hands-down, is that I get to do what I love and feel constantly inspired by my clients.

-I love creating beautiful images but more importantly, I love serving real people in the greatest moments of their lives.

Now that you've gotten to know me a little bit, Let's get in touch to plan your photos!
