Nashville Photographer Capturing your love and what it brings out in you

 I’m a Nashville Photographer and traveling Elopement Photographer based in Nashville, TN with a story, wanting to tell yours. If you have treasured photos from your childhood, or of family members that have passed, you know how important photography is. You know that trusting someone to capture these memories is a big deal. Your family photos won’t fade or get thrown away when the day is done, and they only get more meaningful with age. My approach is simple: take photos that are evocative, authentic, and only get better with time. Take photos that show your hurt, joy, past, future, and present. I want to tell your story, from beginning to end through your photos and time with me. This will take vulnerability and trust, but I promise, it’s worth it and we can do it, together. it’s you & me.

 
 

This is not about me, this is about you.

Picture your dream day, your loved ones by your side, everyone you can ever dream of in one picture. The people who make you who you are, the ones you’d give up everything for. Picture that. Think about it. k? Now let’s make it happen.

This is my vow to you, to capture you guys for who you truly are, not as just another couple, another family. I promise to tell your story, tell your love, and tell your perspectives of one another, unlike any other couple out there. I will leave my heart in your photos, and tell the story of yours. I promise to capture the chaos of being parents, the beauty of a growing belly, the joys of toddlerhood, the ever changing characteristics of your newborn baby. I promise to capture your life, messy or not, full of animals or babies, and give you memories frozen in time through me and my camera.

xoxo,
Hailes

 
 

U.S elopements and beyond

This journey can go anywhere in the world. Trust me, I know. My husband and I went to New Zealand on our honeymoon, and the whole trip all I did was pin locations of where to take my amazing couples. I grew up going over seas every summer and winter, to name a few, I went to Africa (twice), India, Nepal, Nicaragua, and Thailand (for almost 6 months). Needless to say, travel is in my blood.

There is nowhere too far, or too different for us to go to. If you grew up in an exchange school overseas, if you spent time at a favorite family vacation area, or whether you two have a dream location to see, I’m down.

anywhere, anytime, no matter what, count me in. I’ll even help you plan all the travel!

 

Ready to elope,

but don’t know where to start?

Get to know me your Nashville photographer!

I’m Hailey, but you can call me Hailes! I’m a Tennessee Elopement photographer who loves to take 100000 photos of my daughter and son, eat too many quesadillas, take shots of tequila, and snuggle my dog to an ungodly amount, which she most definitely hates and loves.

We’re not gonna run around a field pretending to be every other couple. We are going to do what you guys do best, be you. Pizza, tequila, in your home, your favorite bar, where you first met? Let’s make it mean something, and let’s do your relationship justice for the rawness that lies within.
