learn about the experience

One day, the people you love most will sit around a table, flipping through the pages of your life. They’ll see the way your eyes lit up when you said “I do,” the excitement of cuddling your newborn, the moment your family came together to vacation on the shore. These aren’t just photographs — they’re the story you leave behind.

I believe in documenting unrepeatable seconds and creating chapters etched in time with the next generation in mind. My work is nostalgic storytelling — a blend of truth and beauty, where each image becomes part of a deeply meaningful narrative your family will share for generations to come.

- sarah & zachary

Working with Hailey Rae Photography was unreal — her vision and artistic eye was everything, and there was never a moment where she didn't have our complete trust. Our wedding day was magical, and she captured every detail and moment impeccably. 

"Our experience was the definition of luxury — we felt like ourselves the entire day."

- Sarah and zachary

We told Hailey our vision for a backyard wedding in the spring and she went above and beyond to ensure our photos documented our wedding day perfectly.  

"You won't find someone else as magical as Hailey rae— a true artist."
