Love and Life

My goal as a photographer is to capture your life as it unfolds and your love as you live it out. I love when laughter, joyous smiles, and emotion-filled eyes are captured clearly in a single picture. Pictures hold memories that last a lifetime. One of my favorite shoots I've ever done was with my great-grandmother and family. There are pictures of everyone laughing together, looking through her old pictures, telling her story. She lived an incredible life and the pictures I took of her showcase that surrounded by the people she loved most. That's what I want to do for you. I want to capture you surrounded by the people you love most. I want to freeze in time these precious moments. I want to capture your incredible life.

Haley was such a joy to work with! She is passionate about photography and you can see that in every aspect of the process: planning, shooting, editing, and delivery. She cares about the pictures she takes and her main goal is to capture those precious moments that will make her clients happy! I'm still SO in love with ALL of my pictures!

S A M U E L  &  B R O O K E

Not only is Haley is such a talented photographer, but she is such a sweetheart. Having her do our engagement and wedding pictures was a really great experience. You can just see through her personality and her photos that she is very passionate about what she does. She is organized and always prepared for whatever we had planned (or unplanned). She helped guide us during our photo sessions, but also let us put our own twist on things. Haley really made sure to capture not only the love between me and my husband, but also our goofiness and the joy that we had during that season in our lives.

“We have had the privilege of working with Haley for two wedding seasons and in a word, she is AMAZING! Her work is impeccable and her heart for service is astounding. She is professional and always has a smile. If you’re looking for a photographer for any reason, you won’t be disappointed with Haley!” - Skip and Elaine Corbett of A Beach Wedding Minister

I wanted to get pictures for quite some time, but get nervous around cameras. Within minutes, Haley had my boyfriend and I laughing and loving the experience. We fell in love with our pictures and since then I can’t stop encouraging my friends to go see her.

We had such a great time working with Haley as our wedding photographer! Haley is very kind and has a great eye for detail. Thankful we have such beautiful pictures to remember our special day.

Let's be friends! (psst... Instagram is my favorite!)

I’m praying for my Wilmington community and the little beach town I love so much. I’m incredibly thankful that no matter what happens, my God is control. He sees all and knows all! “Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think” -Ephesians 3:20. I love this verse because I can trust that He will work all things for His Kingdom and glory ❤️ #hurricaneflorence
One of my favorite things about traveling is discovering the harmony between familiarity and surprise. These days we usually have a general idea of what a place looks like before ever visiting. I knew what Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower, the Washington Monument, and the White House all looked like from pictures, but I’ve learned there is always an element of surprise when you actually go! Big Ben was not as big as I expected. The Eiffel Tower was bigger! Everything about DC felt new, yet familiar, and was so much more beautiful than I imagined. It’s a wonderful, odd feeling watching the sites you’ve seen in pictures spring to life in an entirely new light right before your eyes ✨
5 years ago today I officially began Haley Nicole Photography. I’m incredibly thankful for how far God has brought me. I seek to rely this business on Him and all the glory is His!! ✨ I started out photographing families and seniors, always dreaming of shooting weddings. Now that’s mostly what I shoot! I’m thankful to every person that has entrusted me with their precious moments over the years. It’s truly an honor and one I hope to never take for granted! 💕 Swipe to see some of my first sessions and weddings!
Washington D.C. far exceeded my expectations! I loved every second of our short time there and would go back in a heartbeat. But more about that soon! For now, swipe to see pictures of some of my favorite people 😘 Thankful for family 💛 They’re my God-given, life-long best friends, coffee buddies, travel partners!
