Your wedding day should feel effortless — not like a performance. You deserve to be fully present, soaking in every moment, not wondering what’s next or if it’s being captured.
That’s where I come in. As your editorial destination photographer, I quietly orchestrate a seamless experience behind the lens — guiding you with intention, capturing the details you’ve so thoughtfully curated, and preserving the energy that makes your day unforgettable.
Whether it’s ensuring your timeline flows naturally or stepping back so you can fully enjoy cocktail hour, my role is to support, anticipate, and elevate. You lead the celebration — I’ll make sure it looks and feels as incredible as it truly was.
Let’s take the stress out of photography — and put the focus back on you.
Whether you're planning a celebration in Charleston, Chicago, or a destination far from home, I specialize in documenting refined weddings with heart. While I primarily shoot digital, I also incorporate film wedding photography for that timeless, artful touch.
From start to finish, my couples receive nothing less than my full presence, attention, and care. You deserve to feel seen, supported, and celebrated — and I’m here to make sure you do.

From the moment we make it official, you have more than a photographer—you have a trusted friend and creative partner.
My commitment goes beyond just capturing your wedding day. It’s about building a genuine connection, understanding your vision, and making every interaction feel effortless and enjoyable. Whether we bond over Taylor Swift, pets, or your favorite destination, our relationship ensures your photographs reflect comfort, authenticity, and joy.
In what feels like a blink, the celebration is over. But your photographs? They’re what remain — a timeless reflection of everything you felt and everything you never want to forget.
That’s why working with someone who truly understands your story, vision, and energy makes all the difference.
"She is so much more than just a photographer—she’s your hype woman, your timeline creator, and a calming presence throughout the wedding planning process. From day one, she took the time to understand our vision, making sure every detail was captured beautifully. On our wedding day, Hayley made us feel like the most important people in the world. She helped us feel natural in front of the camera, which resulted in the most breathtaking, authentic photos. Her attention to detail is unmatched, and her ability to capture the magic of the day is truly a gift."

"From the beginning, Hayley was extremely personable. Hayley ended up traveling to Texas for our engagement session! Hayley is so much more than just a photographer, but she is a friend!! She takes her job so incredibly seriously, but she has an amazing, big heart and pours that into her work and it shows! Seeing Hayley on our wedding day in our bridal suite brought so much calm over me. She was locked in and focused and totally in her element the entire day! Looking at our wedding photos, it felt like we were reliving our day and we are so grateful for that."

"As a wedding planner and coordinator, I have had the absolute PLEASURE of working with Hayley more than once. She is not only a fantastic photographer, but her communication with clients and vendors is superb. Her upbeat personality, ability to direct the wedding party, and absolute insane level of energy during the day-of, while still maintaining a calm energy are just a few things that we absolutely love about her. If you are looking for a vendor to not only kill it at what they do, but also gain a friend - Hayley is your girl!"

"Randomly stumbling upon Hayley one day and deciding to book her as our wedding photographer was easily one of the best choices we’ve ever made. From day one, she went above and beyond any of our prior expectations and truly became so much more than just our photographer. She puts so much thought, love, and consideration into everything she does. Not to mention, the images of our wedding day are so incredible and they take me right back to that day every time. What more could anyone want when they look back on one of the most special days of their lives. Hayley is truly so talented and such a special person and I will 100% be using her services in the future."
