When people ask us how Apollo Fields began, we often smile because the answer is layered. At its core, Apollo Fields is our love story—one that started with a chance meeting in New York City, grew through late nights of dreaming and creating, and eventually took root here in Flemington, New Jersey, where we built not just a wedding photography business but a microwedding venue where couples can create their own lasting stories.

We are Heather and Terrence Huie, the husband-and-wife team behind Apollo Fields, and we’re proud to have grown a business that is as much about connection and storytelling as it is about photos and celebrations.

How We Met and Why We Started Apollo Fields

Back in 2014, we met while both working in hospitality in New York City. Heather was celebrating her birthday with a book in hand, and I was bartending at the time. That small, serendipitous moment eventually turned into conversations, creative collaboration, and, before long, a vision for the kind of life and work we wanted to build together.

By 2016, we had moved to Colorado, chasing a dream of wide-open spaces and creative freedom. Out there, we experimented with projects that blended both of our passions—photography and writing. One of our earliest ideas was a cookbook that combined recipes with poems and photographs. That little experiment gave us the confidence to combine our skills into something larger. Apollo Fields was born from the belief that weddings—and the memories they create—deserve to be documented in a way that’s deeply personal and lasting.

Our Philosophy: More Than Just Photos

For Heather, photography has always been about light and authenticity—capturing couples as they really are, in their element, with their personalities shining through. For Terrence, writing is a way to distill those fleeting wedding-day emotions into something tangible. Together, we realized we could offer couples not only wedding photography but also the gift of storytelling.

Some of our couples receive handwritten poems inspired by their stories, or intimate photo deliveries where we sit down together and relive the wedding day over dinner. Those touches may seem small, but they’re the heartbeat of what we do: creating a space where our couples feel seen, celebrated, and truly cared for.

Why Apollo Fields Is Different

People sometimes ask us what makes Apollo Fields unique. We tell them it’s a combination of art, intention, and hospitality.

Photography & Poetry: Heather captures timeless, luminous images, and Terrence often creates poems based on a couple’s story. It’s not just a wedding gallery—it’s a narrative keepsake.
Hospitality: Because of our hospitality backgrounds, we see every interaction as part of the experience. Delivering albums in person or hosting dinners for couples feels natural to us—it’s about connection.
Personalization: We intentionally limit the number of weddings we take on. That means every couple receives the full scope of our attention and creativity.
Authenticity: We don’t believe in manufactured moments. Your day should reflect you—not a Pinterest board or a template.When you book Apollo Fields, you’re not just hiring vendors. You’re inviting us into your story, and we take that responsibility seriously.

From Photography to a Wedding Venue

In 2024, we expanded Apollo Fields beyond photography and storytelling by opening our own microwedding venue in Flemington, New Jersey. Our property includes an equestrian farm setting, surrounded by fields and fresh country air, designed specifically for intimate celebrations of up to 50 guests.

We decided to create a venue because so many couples we worked with were craving something smaller, more intentional, and less overwhelming than a traditional ballroom wedding. By combining our skills in photography, event design, and hospitality, we acquired a space where couples can have everything they need in one place:

A charming, private venue in Hunterdon County
Catering and rentals designed for intimate events
Photography and storytelling woven seamlessly into the day
A relaxed, welcoming environment where every detail is customized

We host only a limited number of events each month to keep things special. For us, it’s not about volume—it’s about giving each couple the care and attention they deserve.

Life Behind the Lens and on the Farm

Running Apollo Fields is more than just our business—it’s our lifestyle. We live on the property with our children, which means the venue is an extension of our family. Parenthood has shaped how we approach our work. The chaos, the humor, and the joy of raising kids have given us even more appreciation for fleeting moments—the same ones we capture at weddings.

Terrence often shares his reflections in our blog, writing about the balance between family life and entrepreneurship. Heather brings that same mindset into photography—always seeking the real, unscripted moments that tell the truest story.

Serving Couples in New Jersey, New York, and Beyond

Although our farm is located in Flemington, NJ, we’ve photographed weddings all over—New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Wyoming, Maine, North Carolina and even a couple overseas destinations in France, St. Thomas, and the Dominican Republic. We love the diversity of couples we meet and the stories we get to tell. Whether it’s a country microwedding at our venue, a grand celebration in New York City, or an intimate elopement on the coast, we bring the same heart and artistry to every event.

Couples often tell us that what drew them to Apollo Fields was our mix of editorial photography, authentic storytelling, and warm hospitality. We’re proud of that. It means our brand resonates with people who want more than staged photos—they want a wedding experience that feels like them.

Why Couples Choose Apollo Fields

We’ve learned that couples choose us not just for what we do, but for how we make them feel.

They want images that look timeless but still capture their personalities.
They want a venue that feels personal and private.
They want vendors who are as invested in the story as they are.

That’s why Apollo Fields has become more than a business. It’s a community. Many of our couples become friends, and we’ve even welcomed them back to the farm for anniversaries, family portraits, or just to share a meal.

Looking Ahead

Our dream is simple: to keep telling love stories in ways that feel meaningful, intimate, and beautiful. As Apollo Fields continues to grow, we’re excited to host more microweddings in New Jersey, capture more heartfelt celebrations, and meet couples who resonate with our vision.

Every wedding we photograph and every event we host reinforces why we started this journey in the first place. We believe love deserves to be celebrated authentically, and we feel honored every time a couple trusts us to capture that.
