Charleston never goes out of style. Neither will the romantic coastal celebration you’re dreaming of right now.

You want to feel fully present on your wedding day, not overwhelmed. It's easy to feel rushed without the right guidance. Without a calm, experienced presence, you risk losing those in-between moments that matter most.

"From day one, she went above and beyond any of our prior expectations and truly became so much more than just our photographer."

"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."

"She adds so many little touches that show how much she truly cares about each individual couple."

"Hayley absolutely exceeded our expectations when it came to wedding photography. From our first call to our engagement session and then our rehearsal dinner and wedding she served as not only a photographer but a best friend, confidante, and planning assistant. She adds so many little touches that show how much she truly cares about each individual couple. She beautifully captured both our individual personalities as well as our love story and our friends and family cannot stop talking about how beautiful our photos turned out. Our photos bring me to tears every time I look at them because they are truly SO incredibly special."

My Charleston Story

Charleston holds a special place in my heart—it was the city that gave me the courage to take a leap of faith in my business. It was my first solo trip, and the first wedding I ever photographed on film.

I explored until my feet were bruised, learned how unpredictable Charleston’s weather can be, and discovered that there’s something undeniably magical in the air.

This city feels like a part of me, and getting to return again and again is something I treasure deeply.





How many images will we receive?

Because every wedding day is unique, I ensure a minimum delivery of 60 images per hour of contracted coverage. Each one is thoughtfully edited to reflect the emotion, detail, and atmosphere of your day.

How do I book my wedding date?

For all couples, the process begins by filling out the contact form and scheduling a discovery call. To officially reserve your wedding date, a 30% retainer and signed agreement are required.

Do you travel for weddings & engagement sessions?

I am wholeheartedly committed to traveling wherever love leads. Before your day arrives, I’ll research and scout picturesque locations to ensure your destination is reflected beautifully in every image.

What are the image turnaround times?

Because film requires careful processing and every digital image is edited with intention, I aim to deliver your full gallery within 4–6 weeks.

Do you shoot film?

I do. Film offers a creamy, luminous quality that I absolutely love. It requires presence and precision, and it brings an artful depth to your wedding collection that simply can’t be replicated.

Are you open to receiving our suggested shot list?

Drawing on years of experience, I promise that every meaningful moment and thoughtful detail will be beautifully captured. During our final consultation, we’ll build a customized family formals list and talk through any specific moments or guest interactions you’d like prioritized. Your vision matters, and I’m here to honor it with care and intention.

Experience chic wedding photography with a dedicated digital and film wedding photographer, capturing your love story with heart—wherever your celebration takes you.
