B utterflies of Hope Photogra- phy was founded by owner Heather Banker who experi- enced the loss of her younger sister at an early age. This tragic loss brought forth the realization that life is short, time is fleeting and our time here is uncertain. A spark ignited in her and she made it her mission to learn everything she could about photography. Quickly, newborns, maternity, milestones and family sessions became her passion. She became certified in newborn photography and newborn safety through APNPI. Heather has built an amazing team with over 26 years of cumulative experience. Her daughters Katelyn Craven and Whitney Verret both work for the team full time. Katelyn (@bohbykate) specializes in Wedding Photography, Branding, Events and

College Graduate Photography. Whitney (@boh_picsbywhit) specializes in Real Estate Photography, Graduates, Family, Childhood and Branding Photography. Whitney is also a certified drone pilot. Mercedes Rivet (@bohmemsbym) began as Heather’s assistant and has been educated by Heather for her photography position. She specializes in childhood and family photography. Alexis Mosher is the studio manager and works tirelessly to make sure all of our clients begin their experience with care. With such amazing support from our community, we are excited to give back as much as possible!
