Meet the photographer

Hi and welcome! My name is Hailey and I have been a photographer since I could pick up my dad’s Nikon (that was in 2008). Since then I have been photographing everything and anything, developing my artistic vision. If you are on the hunt for a photographer I am sure you’ve seen the many styles, formats, and approaches photographers can have. If it’s overwhelming for you to decide which to go with you are not alone. I have spent much of my career photographing in every style imaginable to find what really fit me.

I would describe my photography style as

~ Moody ~ Cinematic ~ Adventurous ~ In the Moment ~ Deep ~

As I am writing this I am realizing how difficult it is to convey who I am only using text. So excuse me as I go ahead and list some of my values for you.

Photography is not just my business, it is how I move through the world. Whether I am on or off the clock I always have my camera in hand. I value strong communication and connection. It is essential that my clients trust me, not only with their vision but with how they feel about my work. During these five years in business, I have prided myself in developing close relationships with all my clients, but truthfully I think I have just been blessed with the most amazing clients.

I am a big believer that no vision is unachievable. If you come to me with only an idea of how you want your images to feel, I know we can create that and more.

Ps - I do smile, just not in these pictures.

  • I am a big Harry Potter fan, I have read the books and seen the movies countless times. The colors and feel of the movies has inspired some of my work.

  • I love traveling, I have definitely caught the travel bug! If you are looking to have a destination photographer, look no further and ask me about my travel deals!

Common q’s

  • What camera do you use?

    I primarily shoot with the Sony Alpha 7 IV. It is perfect for my method of photography.

    I also use a Nikon D5600 which I can’t leave behind because I know it like the back of my hand.

  • Do you direct poses?

    One of the most frequently asked questions I receive is will I help with pose.

    Short answer: absolutely.

    Every session has a flow, we can move through a session as structured as you would like. Some sessions we may walk around and I can give you prompts and others we may have a clear pose idea that you’d like to accomplish.

  • How do you edit your photos?

    While editing I like to remain more true to color, while accentuating the highlights and shadows to deepen the emotions of each photograph. Photography is an art form, it’s okay to have different tastes; my clients always see the edits before final delivery and I encourage them to let me know if they want something to be tweaked.

  • Do you work with other photographers?

    Yes I do! I have a network of photographers that I work with. If you feel like our styles don’t match but need help finding a photography that fits your vision, feel free to ask me and I can point you in the direction of another professional!
