HONEST CONNECTION, ART, AND ORIGINALITY
My name is
Hailey
Born in Hamilton, Ontario and now living in the sweet little town of Ancaster;
I find peace in creativity and spend my time painting, reading, going on nature walks with my son, and taking care of my house plants and little black cat.
I love making people laugh, cooking for friends and gardening.
I'm a hopeless romantic at heart and will without a doubt tear up at your first dance
I love to collect things and have too many boxes of little items tied to moments I've cherished over the years.
I want my photography to echo how it feels when you find an old polaroid stuffed in the back of a drawer: warm and peaceful, all wrapped up in the memory.
I'm a Mohawk College's Creative Photography: Still & Motion graduate with experience in all types of lighting and studio settings.
My passion is in photographing weddings while taking a documentary approach to really capture the feel of the day. For me it's all about the small moments of intimacy, the laughter of the wedding party, and the tangible love that surrounds the couple from sunrise to sunset.
My art is designed for those who value the sentimental parts of life

Investing in a photographer who complements your energy is the best way to ensure you get the photos you've been dreaming of.
If you're looking for simple and quick, "let's just get it done" traditional photos then I might not be the photographer for you, and that's alright!
The effort, time and planning we put into working together will always show up in the photos and it is so rewarding!
If you're into dreamy and romantic images, detail and direction, while embracing the beautiful ways that candid moments unfold, I'm your girl!
The most authentic photos come from two things: a prompt-not a pose, and trusting me even if you feel a little silly in the moment.
We'll stay true to you and create something meaningful together.
My goal is always to make you feel as supported and comfortable as possible. With me as your photographer, you'll feel like you have an extra friend by your side and a steadying hand in any moments of uncertainty.

Hailey and Casey shot our wedding on May 31 2024, and they were an incredible addition.
From the onset, they were responsive to our emails and questions, and were able to clarify anything we were confused about. Their photography package was affordable, and the quality of the photos were well above what they charged.
On the day of the wedding, Hailey and Casey attended the bride’s ’getting ready’ room and were able to take great shots of the bride and her bridesmaids. The addition of these photos are a highlight of the entire photo album.
During the ceremony, Hailey and Casey arrived prior to the event in order to iron out last minute alterations with the groom and guests. Hailey and Casey were able to capture beautiful shots of every single moment. We didn’t even notice Hailey and Casey taking the photos during the ceremony, but they still managed to get great shots.
Despite having a short window of time for wedding party photos in between the ceremony and reception, they were able to make the most of our time getting spectacular photos of the wedding party. The Royal Botanical Gardens was our shot location, and they seemed to be intimately familiar with the area, smoothing out the process altogether.
The rest of the night was fantastic. Hailey and Casey seemed to be able to get every guest, and they were accommodating in all our requests and the schedule of the evening.
The photos themselves were nothing short of breathtaking. The quality and detail of the photos were absolutely superb. We found ourselves constantly refreshing our email and checking for new photos every day waiting for more to be sent to us, and being left in awe at how they turned out. It’s bittersweet now that we have all of our photos- we’re happy to have them now, but we’ll miss looking forward to getting new ones.
Overall, Hailey and Casey were professional, friendly, accommodating, and a joy to be around. The photos we now have are worth every cent. We would undoubtedly recommend Hailey and Casey for your event photos. 10/10“
