Hi, I'm Hailey! Sedona is home, and photographing people in love has been part of my life for 16 years. I'm the person who arrives early, checks everything twice, learns what matters most to you, and always has a backup plan ready.
Over the years, I've photographed hundreds of couples–from quiet elopements in the red rocks to wedding days filled with family, friends, and a packed dance floor. Every celebration is different, but the way I show up stays the same: calm, dependable, genuinely excited for you, and ready to help where I'm needed.
I want you to feel comfortable with me, trust that the details are handled, and know that your memories are in good hands.

That means having someone beside you who listens, follows through, stays calm, and genuinely shares in your excitement. I want you to feel comfortable enough to laugh loudly, cry freely, hold your people close, and experience your wedding without worrying about the camera.
The beautiful portraits belong in your gallery, but so do the shaky hands before the ceremony, the dusty dress hem, the hugs that linger, and the joy that takes over the dance floor.
Those are the pieces that make the story yours.
Years from now, I want you to look through your gallery and remember how the day actually felt–the people, the nerves, the laughter, and all the little moments you were too busy living to notice.
When I'm not out photographing love stories, life usually involves my husband, Daniel, our cat, Taco, and some kind of creative project. I spend a lot of time covered in clay at the pottery studio, working on our little vineyard in Clarkdale, or loading up the 4Runner to explore somewhere new.
Travel has also been a huge part of my life. I've visited 41 countries, met incredible people, and learned that the moments we remember usually have very little to do with everything going perfectly. They're the unexpected conversations, the shared meals, the wrong turns, and the people who made us feel at home.
I think that's part of why I love weddings so much. Every day brings together a place, a group of people, and a story that will never happen in quite the same way again. I get to pay attention to it–and that still feels pretty incredible.
Sixteen years of experience has taught me how to anticipate what's coming, stay steady when plans change, and recognize the moments that will matter long after the day is over. That experience shapes every recommendation I make and every photograph I create, allowing you to relax and know you're in good hands.
