“I am in love with photography. There is so much beauty in the world; I see the art in everything and am fascinated with color, form, shape and design. I'm somewhat a purest when it comes to making photographs and want to show you what I see through the camera as closely as possible. I come from a family of wildly creative women; painters all. This has had enormous influence on my work and shaped my style of photography and art. I show my work in large sizes, like paintings or extraordinary windows. Each photograph is as individual and unique as the moment it was taken. Enjoy!'

Heather S. Huston is a photographer, artist and when she feels like it, writer, because she really does love it. At the age of 17 she worked in graphic design and also designed sets for a Corridor Alternative School's production at Eugene, Oregon's prestigious Hult Center for the Performing Arts.
Art was put on the back burner as her interest turned towards alternative healing. Working as a massage therapist and energy worker, she wandered back into the art world after relocating to Portland, Or.
She opened Xel Gallery in the Everett Station Lofts & Galleries in 1996. There they showcased all levels and mediums of art, giving many unknown artists a chance to show and sell their work. While acting as Curator for all monthly shows, openings and special events; the gallery also gave her the opportunity to show her own work. While she showed photos, paintings, kinetic sculpture and mobiles, and ceramic raku sculpture~ photography had become her favorite form of artistic expression. Xel Gallery was open for 7 years before Heather moved to Sedona, Arizona where she began to focus seriously on photography.
She has since lived in Arizona, Hawaii, and Covington, Louisiana. Recent adventures have been a 6 month collaboration with Sarah Dunn Arts in Covington,La (now Red Gallery in New Orleans) and wedding and portrait work under renowned photographer Sally Dunn. Currently enrolled in the Professional Photography Course at the New York Institute of Photography, she's adding lots of new stuff to her bag of tricks.
Any left over time is spent in nature with camera in hand, traveling, writing and having entirely too much fun with Mojo and Gypsy.
Her work can be found online through Fine Art America, Cafe Press, JPG Magazine, Imagekind and Deviant Art, and is hanging in private collections accross the US.
