My love for story-telling grew as I entered college and studied journalism and launched my photography business with absolutely *no* idea what I was doing. What started as a hobby turned into a full-scale career + thriving business and there’s not a day that goes by that I’m not wildly grateful for this beautiful job I’ve been given. God has been so good to me and the grace I live in through Jesus spurs me on to a deeper, more abundant life in all areas - a love for both the spectacular and mundane. 

I photograph stunning, regular, and special memories in that beautiful true-to-life kind of way - where the colors feel vibrant + real (like you could pull the photo right out of the screen and smell the flowers), the emotions aren’t forced or staged (nothing curated here), and everyone feels comfortable in their own skin. 

I’ve been a full-time photographer for over 5 years and have shot over 100 weddings. But my photographer career *technically* started when I was young and would steal our family camcorder, buy disposable cameras, or when I saved up to buy my first lil’ red point and shoot camera. ;) 

I’m a coffee-obsessed, mug-half-full, wedding + portrait photographer and I’m so happy you found me! 

Meet Haley

Leighton and I were both 20 when we got married and we’re just as wildly in love now 6-years in. He’s the best guy I’ve ever known and truly my best friend. Life with him is simple, easy, and always full of belly-laughs, long walks, and restaurant hopping. We have (the world’s most) adorable, spunky, and beautiful daughter, Carter, who has brought a richness + joy to life we hadn’t known until her birth. I’m so grateful for the support of my husband in my business and the ability to be home so much as Carter grows up! This life is such a gift with them! 

HERE'S MY FAMILY!

Let's grab coffee!

My favorite scent is Capri Blue Volcano - it smells like slow, restful weekend sabbaths + windows-open summer nights. 

I have tattoos, a hat collection, and love a good pair of Doc Martens. 

I start every morning with a homemade pour-over!

"I was really nervous going into our engagement session because I didn’t feel that photogenic and neither me nor my husband had been professionally photographed before. Haley truly makes you feel like a model because she is such a bubbly personality to be around and she moves you so effortlessly. All of our engagement and wedding pictures were better than I could have imagined, and they came SO much quicker than I thought they would! I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone and everyone. I could not have found someone better than her."

“Haley is the best of the best! She is so helpful with the behind the scenes work of a wedding, but also does an AMAZING job at her photography.”

"She was so personable from my initial inquiry all the way to the gallery delivery. Haley has a talent for making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, even if you are hesitant at first. A quick turnaround, more images than promised, and a great energy to be around during the shoot has me trying to figure out what I can book her for next! Haley is a gem in the sea of photographers, anyone would be happy to have her as their photographer!"

“We hired Haley for a couple’s session and we could not recommend her more!”
