I am a Type-A free spirit destination photographer based in Texas.
Most days you can find me in a thick pair of socks, mismatched sweats, and no makeup, while I either edit, write, or read my way to a better business. I drink several cups of hot tea a day, have a greyhound named Tutti, and a home with my boyfriend Matthew in McKinney Tx. Traveling and new experiences are my favorite, along with indoor plants, knitting, naps, and bowls of cereal. Friends and family have described me as bubbly, enthusiastic, and sarcastic to a fault.
I chase gorgeous light, laughter, unique details, and the small things in between. Keeping things natural and simple is key.
Little moments and big connections define my business.
My work is snapshot of something that is important to you and I want you to be able to remember those special occasions fondly again & again.
This photographer loves to travel and shoot in new and unique places. Let's go on an adventure!

My husband and I were married on February 29th, 2020 in McKinney Texas with around 90 in attendance. Planning was a whole new experience for us and Haley was exactly what we needed! We first met her at a coffee shop to ensure we were a good match. My husband and I talked to her and really felt like we knew and trusted Haley before we even left. I must admit, we did tell her we would "let her know soon", before we departed, but as soon as we got in the car both my husband and I exclaimed, "she is perfect!". We didn't look for another photographer after because we knew right then having Haley on our side would help make our wedding wonderful.
She answered any questions we had and even set up for an extra meeting when we wanted to just "go over things". Her payment system was easy to navigate and straight to the point, and she always answers promptly. She listened and helped provide excellent feedback and expertise throughout the entire process.
On the day of the wedding she was prompt, prepared, friendly, and professional. Once behind the camera Haley really helped us to feel relaxed, natural, and absolutely beautiful! She kept a level head, which helped us to remain calm and enjoy our day. She got on the dance floor, guided us through cutting a cake and dealt with our large crowd like a champion. Both of our families couldn't say enough good things about Haley and her assistant, Ariana. They got every photo and then more. We did a sunset photoshoot that was breathtaking and caught multiple perfect pictures because of her quick thinking and creativity.
We stand behind our decision confidently and have the proof in our photos. She not only met our expectations, but exceeded them and made our wedding a day we will never forget. We will recommend her with the highest regards for as long as she is still capturing magical moments like ours and look forward to working with her again.
We are forever greatful,
The Balthrops❤️

Perfect Balance of Professionalism & Friendliness
My family truly enjoyed having Haley Katherine photograph our son's wedding on New Year's Day 2020. She maintains the perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness. She coordinated group photos expertly. She has an artist's eye for detail, creative backdrops and framing. Quickly, we received her edited photos, and many were of the quality found on the cover of bridal magazines! You will adore this photographer and her work.

An absolute MUST HIRE!!!
Haley did our engagement and wedding photos. She is located in the Dallas area and we’re located in the south Houston area but even with the travel cost, her prices are reasonable and her work is amazing! I received so many compliments for our pictures, how friendly and easy to work with she was, and how comfortable and fun it was having her as our photographer. She was one of the best parts of our wedding, other than actually getting to marry my husband 😊 I couldn’t recommend anyone better!
I really enjoy working with Haley! She is energetic, motivated, creative and lots of fun !!! She is talented and will go above and beyond to give you whatever you are invisioning for your event !!!
First off, Haley might be one of the hardest working people I know. Whether she's spending countless hours planning a photoshoot or editing her photos perfectly to fit ideas, she's always got a smile on her face. She will work to fit your schedule and style. I plan on working with Haley more and you should too!
It's rare to find a photographer who cares as much about her clients as Haley does. She is so talented and I cannot recommend her enough! Haley is detail oriented, fun, creative and makes her clients feel completely at ease in front of the lens. Her photography style is clean and modern while still remaining classic and timeless, a combination you can't go wrong with! Haley truly cares about her client's experience, from the first email to gallery delivery, and goes above and beyond in every way. If you're looking for a photographer that will wow you with joyful, beautiful images of your most meaningful moments, get in touch with her as soon as possible!
