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.

Choose Haley! She is very professional and takes care of business promptly. Her communication is great, she is easy going, and super sweet. It was really helpful to break the ice by meeting up in person with Haley. My husband and I felt very comfortable on our wedding day and it honestly felt like it was a friend my mine capturing our special moments. Haley has such a sweet spirit and I highly recommend her as a photographer.

“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

Haley was always on time, stress free and able to accommodate when things had to change last minute and very helpful in the process. Some fears I had were not having enough pictures taken or not having enough time but everything turned out great and we got more than enough! :) I also loved that Haley got pictures of our guests having a good time as well! She made everything feel more like and experience and an adventure rather than like many other photographers I have seen that come off demanding and bossy - Haley was sweet, helpful and I am so glad we chose her! If you want someone who can edit photos fast, doesn’t put their logo all over everything and lets you know what a schedule would look like with her ahead of time - get her! I’ve not seen any other photographer that’s done as great of quality as she has in such a timely manner!

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 shared a little bit about the value of family pictures on my story yesterday...and a few of my favorites from the past year! 💕My schedule in June is flexible, so if you’re wanting pretty beach portraits like this one, I’d love to hear from you! ☀️
Finally taking a minute from my trip to post a sneak peek of these two!! Amanda and Nathan’s wedding was a DREAM!! I loved everything about their Wrightsville Beach wedding from the soft blue color scheme, fun bridal party, elegant florals, Christ-centered ceremony, and how incredibly adorable these two were together 😍❤️ I can’t wait to share more!!! #cowleysonthecoast
And just like that, I’m finished 🎉 It feels extremely bittersweet to close this chapter of my school years. I’m thankful for my mom as my first teacher who poured into me and instilled a love for learning. I’m incredibly thankful for my mom and dad who were, and continue to be, my biggest cheerleaders, encouragers, and made all this possible. I’m thankful for the opportunity to attend LU online, the internship opportunities through it, and everything I’ve learned as a Graphic Design major. I LOVE what I do...as a photographer and graphic designer. I’m soo excited to now be able to invest more time into photography!! I’m also excited to continue using my skills in graphic design as Communications Director at my church. I have a few ideas of how else I might use graphic design one day, but am excited to see how God continues to lead me. He’s been so faithful all these years and I know that without His grace and mercy I wouldn’t be where I am and doing what I am today. All the glory to Him 💕 📷: @calebpringlephoto
