You deserve more than beautiful photos — you deserve an experience that lets you be fully present.
As a former bride, I understand the heart behind your planning. You want to celebrate, connect, and remember. Not just the highlights, but the honest, in-between moments too.
As your film destination wedding photographer, I’m here to ease the weight of planning, guide with intention, and capture your day with care. So when you look back, it all feels just as meaningful as it did in the moment.
While I photograph weddings across the map, Charleston and Chicago will always feel like home — cities I return to often and know intimately. Planning your day elsewhere? I’d be honored to bring your story to life, wherever it takes you.
My love for film began with something simple — a disposable camera and a desire to put continuous excitement into what I do. Film holds a raw beauty: its tones are rich, its colors true, and its imperfections magical. It invites you to slow down, be present, and capture what truly matters with intention.
Incorporating film into my work has deepened my creativity and elevated the way I document love stories.
It’s now a seamless part of the experience every couple receives — a thoughtful blend of art and emotion, crafted frame by frame.
Dreaming of a destination wedding, elopement, or engagement session? I’m already envisioning it with you.

"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."

"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!"

"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."

"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."
