FAMILIES
lifestyle family photographer
As someone who loves documenting everyday life with my husband and our golden pups, I know how special it is to have photos that feel like you. The messy, joyful, in-between moments that make this season of life unforgettable.
Many families worry about being “camera-ready,” especially with little ones or energetic pups in the mix. My approach is relaxed, fun, and pressure-free. Instead of stiff poses, I focus on movement, connection, and real moments as they naturally unfold. Think laughter, cuddles, chaos, and everything in between.
As a documentary-style family photographer, my goal is to help you feel comfortable being yourselves while I capture the honest, joyful story of your family just as it is right now.

Hayley is hands down the best photographer out there. I have done my research but will never find another photographer like her. She is so compassionate about her clients and making sure you have the best time taking pictures as well as loving them! She is so sweet and invests so much into you!
- JILL
Hayley is not only a genuine and kind hearted person but she takes the most stunning photos. I seriously loved every single photo she took. From the moment she arrived for our engagement session, she was organized, kept us on a timeline, and helped with a dress malfunction. She is a professional with a wonderful personality that will put any couple at ease. She is worth every penny and more, she has an eye for magic, so don’t hesitate and book her!
- ASHLEY
I reached out to hayley after we got our puppy because I knew he wouldn’t stay little long. I didn’t really have a vision for the session and honestly let hayley use her creativity and wisdom to guide the entire thing! I trusted her and she did not disappoint. It was not the easiest shooting a session with an 9 week old puppy, but hayley was so patient, lovable and worked through all his puppy brain moments! They are some of my favorite pictures to this day and I am so glad she was able to capture us as new fur parents!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
DO YOU TAKE ON NEW CLIENTS THAT AREN'T PAST COUPLES?
Yes, I open a limited number of sessions for new clients throughout the year. Availability varies seasonally, so I always recommend inquiring early.
WHEN SHOULD WE REACH OUT TO YOU FOR A MATERNITY SESSION?
My calendar fills quickly, so I encourage reaching out as soon as possible. Most maternity sessions take place during the third trimester. If you'd prefer an indoor look or need flexibility with timing, I also offer a fine art studio backdrop option.
We're getting a new puppy! do you do those types of sessions?
Absolutely. I would be thrilled to meet your newest family member. Puppies grow fast, so once you know their welcome home date, reach out to schedule a session that captures those early moments.
how do your honeymoon sessions work?
Honeymoon sessions are relaxed, romantic, and location-inspired. We’ll explore your destination together, capturing memories that feel vibrant and personal. Whether you're staying close to home or heading abroad, I’m ready to travel and document your love story wherever it takes you.
