Heather's work focuses on the decayed splendor of grand spaces forgotton by time and by the people that built and used them. Her expertise with the technical aspects of photography reveal the darkest corners of these eerie spaces. She is able to find and bring a beauty to the degraded and rotting corpses of buildings and locations that most people would be terrified to enter.

  Part of the success of Heather's photography is the conflict that we feel when we view them. The images are beautiful, cared for, and sometimes tender in their embrace of these spaces. Yet the subject matter is one of decay, rot and in many ways, death. What Heather is asking us to do is to see these spaces as they once were when they were in their prime; places of beauty and splendor. When we can see both the past and the present in these photos we must then ask ourselves, "How did we get here? What is it that allows these spaces to fall into such disrepair? Are they not worth saving?"
