"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."

"If I could offer one piece of advice to anyone it would be to splurge on your photos!! From the beginning, Hayley was extremely personable. We currently live in Texas, and decided to inquire about doing our engagement shoot. Hayley ended up traveling here and spending the weekend with us 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."

"At Ellie Styled, we work with so many talented vendors, but Hayley truly stands out. She’s so kind, calm, and professional, and her attention to detail is unmatched. From her gorgeous editing to the way she captured every emotion and detail, they are some of the most beautiful wedding photos I’ve ever seen. She perfectly highlighted the venue, our decor and florals, and, of course, the couple. She’s not only a talented photographer but someone we hope to work with more often in the future. We can’t recommend her enough!"

Her warmth and genuine enthusiasm made our day everything we had imagined it to be. The photos she captured are nothing short of magical. Each one tells a story, filled with emotion and beautiful moments that we will treasure forever. Hayley has an extraordinary gift for finding beauty in every detail, and it shows in her stunning work. We were absolutely blown away by the final results. It’s clear that photography is not just her job, but her passion. "
