Where rustic roots
meets refined storytelling.
For the Wildly in Love & Wonderfully Unscripted
Every wedding is different, which is why I've created collections designed to fit the natural flow of your day. Whether you're planning a full celebration or something more intimate, you'll receive the same thoughtful experience, intentional storytelling, and guidance every step of the way.
At Rustic Stories Photography, I believe the most beautiful photographs aren't created; they're felt.
Inspired by rustic landscapes, earthy tones, and genuine connection, I document life's most meaningful moments with intention and honesty. The result is imagery that feels timeless, lived-in, and unmistakably true to your story.
If you're drawn to authentic moments over perfect poses, and connection over convention, welcome home.
Where patina meets poetry
in every frame.
Families & Couples
Whether you're celebrating decades of love, chasing littles, or gathering the whole crew while you're in town, these are the moments that matter.
RSP offers relaxed, connection-focused sessions for couples, immediate families, and extended families. I capture the real stuff - joyful, heartfelt moments that reflect who you are together!
And yes, your pups are always welcome! I am a dog mom myself and love including your furry family members in the story.
Whether you're local or just passing through, your session will feel easy, natural, and beautifully you!
Maternity & Newborn
Maternity sessions with RSP are all about capturing the quiet beauty and deep emotion of this chapter—natural, intimate, and timeless.

Letters from RSP Fam
"Hether was an absolute dream to work with. My fiancé and I were both a little nervous on what to expect for engagement photos and Hether went above and beyond! She is a little ball of energy and kept us laughing, moving, and having a blast the entire time. Honestly, I'm bummed we don't get more pictures until our wedding day! Thank you, Hether!"
Tyler & Carleigh
"We came to Hether through family friends and I cannot express how thankful we are to have found her! Her professionalism, communication, creativity, and positive attitude are unmatched; always going above and beyond my expectations. She is worth every penny! Hether has captured our maternity, newborn, and family photos, along with shooting weddings/events we have been a part of and she has delivered amazing results every single time. If you are looking for someone who is willing to get on the ground to get the perfect shot or crack jokes to get those candid smiles, paired with her incredible work and attention to detail, then Hether is the photographer you need. We are looking forward to many more sessions with her - Thanks Hether!"
Alyssa & Casey
"Hether was a pleasure to work with from the beginning to the big day. Her professionalism was apparent from the start, and we appreciated that we had various pricing options, as well as special add ons. Her attention to detail was remarkable and she made us feel so at ease throughout the day. Our “sneak peek” photos were available extremely fast, within days of our wedding, and we were in awe! They turned out more beautiful than we could ever hope for and we can’t wait to see the rest! Would highly recommend Hether again and again."
