Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Fort Worth, TX on Oct. 07, 2009

Heather recently took some photos of my family (10 people) and she was AMAZING. My family ranged in age from 91 years old to 18 months. She was patient and really worked with us to get the best shots. The weather did not cooperate with us and you would never know by looking at the pictures. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her!!! You cannot go wrong.

If Heather had been around when my family was growing up, we'd probably have a family picture for each year! I used her for family pictures that included my husband and I, our 2 grown sons and their families. She also attended a special birthday party after the family session and took pictures there until her remaining time was up. I received over 200 wonderful, timeless pictures! She is very accomodating and a pleasure to work with. My pictures were to me within 2 weeks on CDs (what she had told me to expect). Her prices are very reasonable, so don't miss this opportunity to have great memories made.

I had my first mini session with Heather and the theme was "Mad Hatter Tea Party". She had all the cute props and costumes. Because Heather is a mom she knew exactly how to talk to my 1 year old and get some very cute shots of her during the photo session. I received my cd of pictures that were truly of the best quality. Not only are they great quality but the price is amazing! I will never go back to retail studio pictures. Chunky Monkey Photography is the best!

I absolutely LOVE Chunky Monkey Photography! Heather is amazing-she was right on time and very friendly! She also made sure we got the best pictures possible by posing us and giving some direction. She was also very prompt in getting our photo CD to us and the pictures are great! I am looking forward to our next photo session! I would recommend her to anyone! Her prices are very reasonable, too!

My experience with Heather was great! She was very patient with my one month old and took lots of time to make sure we got great pictures. She brought everything to my house and had lots of great props for his pictures. I would recommend her to anyone who wants great pictures. She was so patient and great to work with.

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Euless, TX on Aug. 06, 2009

Heather took great pictures and was super easy to work with. Would definitely use her again.

Rated Four Stars by a Mom in Royse City, TX on Jul. 11, 2009

Heather was awesome to work with! It was so hot the day we did our session, but she was professional and really brought out my kids personalities in the photos. I love the CD and having the ability to print as many pics as I want! Wonderful!!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Allen, TX on Jun. 27, 2009

Heather did a great job photographing my son. I can't wait to see the pictures.

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in The Colony, TX on Jun. 27, 2009

My family and I greatly enjoyed our recent photography sessions with Heather. She is both professional and personable and goes the extra mile to make sure her clients are satisfied with their pictures. I also appreciated that Heather was very interactive, fun loving and patient with my four year old son. Thanks to Heather and Chunky Monkey Photography, we now have some great pictures to display in our home and to share with family and friends.

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Frisco, TX on Jun. 27, 2009

What a great value for outstanding, artistic, professional photos. Heather is GREAT with kids and a true professional. The best family photos we have ever gotten. Plus I love that she gives the disc of pictures so we can add to our website and send to family via email. I will recommend her to everyone I know.

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Bedford, TX on Jun. 27, 2009

The first time I saw Heather's photographs were of a friends new little baby girl. I fell in love with the pictures!
After that I HAD to book a Mini session with the bunnies! Even though my daughter was woken up from a nap to take the pics we had a great time capturing her playing with the "cows" as she decided to call them.
We then called upon Ms Heather yet again to do the Me & My Mini session with our whole family! They also turned out amazing and we constantly get compliments on the photographs.
My favorite sessions by far have been my little sister SR pics and my couples pics with my fiance
We had an amazinglty fun shoot in Deep Elum and Heather captured our true playful essence with her camera. No matter how early or late in the day, how hot or cold it is she seems to work her magic with her camera and create the most amazing memories that you will cherish forever!
I love that I get to keep the CD's to make prints here and there to give to people whenever I need to!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in The Colony, TX on May. 28, 2009

Heather came to my home on a short notice to take the newborn portraits of my new baby girl. I have to commend her patience with Kennedy as well as patience with me, my husband and my mother. I love the pics that we recieved and would love to have her take more pics and have recommended her to others.

My fiance and I had the most wonderful experience with Heather. She was extremely flexible and accommodating from the very beginning! She made us feel so relaxed and comfortable throughout the session, and was very creative and helpful. We had a blast at our session, and we absolutely loved the preview pictures. We are very impressed with her work, and I'm already recommending her to friends and family. Thanks again, Heather!

We really enjoyed working with Heather, Our session was both fun and relaxed!I only wished we had done one couple ( my husband and I) picture and one with my two older daughters and me but overall it was a good session I only wished I would have known about Heather a year ago when the twins where new born. We can't wait to see our pics, and we look forward to working with her more in the future!

We really enjoyed working with Heather! Our session was both fun and relaxed! We NEVER felt rushed, and she made us feel like she had all the time in the world for us.

Heather was absolutely wonderful with our new daughter. She captured some very heart filled moments with our whole family. We absolutely love the pictures we just got back (we got the cd within a week! awesome!). Heather was very patient with us (my daughter we came to find out is not a morning baby..she needs a nap first but ended up taking some adorable pictures!) and knew all the great poses for my husband and I and our daughter and you can't beat her pricing. The pictures are just precious and I can't wait to use Heather and Chunky Monkey Photography in the future.
Thanks Heather!!!

Heather is wonderful! I have a two year old, a thirteen year old and a thirty-nine year old hubby and she is great with all of them! She is creative and got the kids to participate even when I thought there was no way! After trying several different photographers, Heather is it for us!

I loved the location Heather chose to have pictures taken with bunnies. My 9 month son loved Heather taking his pics. This is our second time having pictures taken by Heather and so far we are very happy with her work.

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Arlington, TX on Mar. 17, 2009

Heather is a true "treasure". I just lucked out when I found her. She takes beautiul pictures and without all of the pressure and costs of the larger more commercial studios. You will not be disappointed with her. She knows of the most amazing on location places to shoot and she is truly AMAZING with kids!! I highly recommend her!!!!!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Frisco, TX on Mar. 14, 2009

What a great experience! Heather (Chunky Monkey Photography) was amazing! She's a mom, so she can relate! Not only was Heather very professional, fun, and patient with our family - she took beautiful, priceless photos! No more photo studios for us! We already have future sessions scheduled with Chunky Monkey Photography and look forward to many more through the years! Thank you Heather for giving us the gift of lifetime memories!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Lewisville, TX on Mar. 14, 2009

We booked Heather to do our twins' first birthday party and one year pictures. She did a wonderful job and worked so well with the boys...which weren't always cooperative. She was very patient with them and we never felt rushed during our sessions with her. She also was very prompt in getting us our cd of pictures after the sessions. We will definitely be using her again in the future and will be telling everyone we know to use her too. Thanks Heather for everything!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Arlington, TX on Mar. 13, 2009

Heather has to be the best photographer that I have ever used. The fact that you get the most wonderful pictures and at a great price will have me only using her in the future. Thanks Heather

Heather did a fabulous job on my daughter's pictures for the princess mini session she did back in September. They are my favorite pictures of her yet.

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Grandview, TX on Nov. 24, 2008

We had a wonderful time with Heather during our family portraits, I have a five year old and 18 month old so they can be a challenge in everyday life much less to smile for the camera! Heather was wonderful with them and my five year old even ran up and gave her a hug when it was time to leave!! My husband is not much on taking on pictures, but he does it once a year to please me, he told me as we were leaving that it was the first time he has ever had FUN during pictures!! Thank you so much Chunky Monkey Photography!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Arlington, TX on Nov. 18, 2008

We booked a family mini session with Heather and are really glad we did. She was so nice and laid back!! She made us feel comfortable even when our 2 year old was not behaving very well! LOL!

I took my daughter a few weeks ago to the Princess session. She did a GREAT job! The photos were on a cd. We're so happy with the pictures. We have contacted her to photograph our daughter's second birthday and our Christmas card picture. We can't wait to see what she will snap next!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Fort Worth, TX on Sep. 27, 2008

We had our daughters' pictures taken for the princess mini-session and it was a wonderful experience. It was nice to not be the one behind the camera this time. She was great to work with us on a time and was very quick with the mailing of our pictures which turned our GREAT!! Have already booked with her again.

I took my daughter to the Princess/Tea Party photo session yesterday and had a wonderful time! It was the first time meeting Heather, but it felt like we had known her forever. She was so nice and sweet and took a variety of pictures to capture the best of my lil one. I cannot wait to see the pictures... but I know they are going to be great! :)

Heather did our engagement pictures and they turned out terrific. My fiance and I had a lot of fun working with her during the shoot and she was very prompt getting our pictures to us. She was so awesome that we decided to hire her for our wedding as well.

I have had 2 sessions with Heather/Chunky Monkey Photography and both have them have been great. Professional but laid back at the same time. I never felt rushed or like I was wasting my time. I have already scheduled my 3rd session!!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Grapevine, TX on Aug. 18, 2008

I recentely got on momasource looking for a photographer for my family reunion. I just wanted for everyone know that Heather did an awesome job. She managed to get a large group of people together and make the picture great. Not only did she do well with that many people but she did numerous group settings and they all turned out stupendous.. I have told all my friend and the rest of my family has told their's. Heather was great to work with and had great idea's for different settings. Ihave looked at other photographer's pictures and will not use anyone else but Chunky Monkey. Thanks Heather for all you did for my family. Your pictures are worth a thousand words......

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Weatherford, TX on Aug. 11, 2008

I have 3 small boys so patience is a must! Heather did wonderful with my boys at our minisession. I had group shots with my nephew and my best friends 5 kids! She knew exactly how she wanted the kids and how to get their attention. I am excited to see my pics in just a few days! I love how Heather came prepared whereas some photographers they ask the parents what do they want to do. It can be nerve wrecking trying to decide how you want the pics to be taken let alone get the attention of an infant who is interested in the rocks and grass right in front of them. Thanks Heather!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Plano, TX on Aug. 04, 2008

Heather is a very talented photographer! Our family recently had our family portraits taken, and our session went great. We have an 11 month old, and Heather did a great job with our little one. I would highly recommend Chunky Monkey photography, we will have more pictures taken in the future!!

Rated Five Stars by a Mom in Allen, TX on Aug. 04, 2008

Our photo session was nothing less than amazing. I was hesitant about doing maternity pics until I saw the prices. Heather was to be at my house a little before 8:30 to set up so the session would begin on time. She was there at 8 with a smile on her face. We were not rushed, my husband and I both felt VERY comfortable. He actually is looking forward to seeing the pictures just as much as I am! I will definitely choose Heather in the future for any portraits we will have done, and pass the word along too :-) Thanks again!

Rated Four Stars by a Mom in Arlington, TX on Jul. 25, 2008

Overall, my husband and I were very satisfied with the session and how the pictures turned out. Heather was very patient with our daughter when she needed to take a break. We had an hour session and Heather was very good about moving us along to each spot for pictures. She also asked if there was anything in paticular that we were looking for. She was very accomodating and easy to work with. I would definately use her services again.

Rated Four Stars by a Mom in Hurst, TX on Jul. 21, 2008

We had a good time at our photo shoot today. Heather was very comfortable taking pictures of my boyfriend's 10 year old daughter. She spoke to her as if she already knew her. I feel she listened to our ideas regarding pictures we would like to have taken. I can't wait to see our pictures!

I have to say this is the most fun I have ever had taking my kids to get their photos done! Heather was calm and relaxed and sooooooo amazingly patient with all the kids. I am already looking for more things to schedule her for. Her prices are great and totally afordable which helps out lots too! I can not wait to see what our pictures look like. Oh ya and she really is on the ball when it comes to loading and editing!
