I’m Heather Schofner, a photographer based in Olympia, WA. I’ve been shooting and printing photos since I was a little tyke. As early as age 6 my mother would give me her point and shoot 35mm camera to play with and I’d go to town setting up my teddy bears for portrait sessions. I’d cut roses from the garden and spray them with water, trying to get that “dewy flower” look.
My interest in photography didn’t fade over the years, and I had my first experience in a black and white darkroom in the sixth grade, shooting photos and developing my own film and prints during a workshop at summer camp. I did more of the same in high school, working with black and white photos. In college I worked on color, digital, and studio photography.
I’ve completed two “365” daily photo projects and I’ve been voted Best Photographer in the Weekly Volcano’s “Best Of Olympia” Reader’s poll twice — once in 2015, and another time in 2016. I always have multiple art projects going on and love working with unique clients. Contact me — let’s capture some memories and make some art!
