Crafting + capturing the relaxed and meaningful wedding day that feels like YOU

Virginia Elopement Photographer

You’re excited to tie the knot + spend the rest of your life with your favorite adventure partner, but something about a big wedding doesn’t feel quite right.

Maybe you hate being the center of attention, you don’t want the stress that comes with planning a big production, or you don’t want to deal with family pressure and outside expectations about what your wedding SHOULD be.

You deserve a fun, stress-free wedding day where every part of the day is exactly what you two want to do!


Thinking about eloping?

Imagine a wedding day where you can:

  • Prioritize spending time and making memories with your partner
  • Have an experience that’s focused on your relationship and reflects who you are as a couple
  • Celebrate your love for one another in a place that inspires you

Having an elopement or small wedding  gives you the freedom to make your wedding your own.

Let’s talk about what that day might look like for you.

As your photographer, here’s

Timeless Photos

capturing the day as it naturally unfolds so that the focus isn’t about posing for photos, it’s about you two having a blast!

Your photos should reflect how your love feels.

I’m Hayley-Ann – a Virginia elopement photographer based in Hampton Roads who helps couples like you have wedding days that are focused on what matters most. 

Like you, I care about the relationships we cherish and the real, candid moments in life more than any party favor or seating chart. 

I’m here to encourage you and your partner to be yourselves so that even long after your elopement day, your photos will transport you back to the memories you’ll want to hold on to forever.

Hayley-Ann helped us forget about everything so we could really take in the special moments we had with each other!

“Hayley went above and beyond anything I could imagine for my wedding day! She was flexible and organized with planning. Hayley was amazing when it came to relieving stress. She helped us forget about everything to really take in the special moments we had with each other! I wouldn’t change a single thing about her work! The photos were amazing and we are so happy with the way everything turned out!”

We were nervous but Hayley made us feel like naturals

“Absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond for our elopement photos. We are a very goofy couple and never really had professional pictures done – we were nervous and she made us feel like naturals. I could not be more pleased.”
