“I thought my heart will start dancing and I would be on tears once I’d receive our photos, and I was right! The way they made me experience it all over again is so valuable and dear to me!”
Haley is seriously the best! There are not enough words to even begin to describe how lovely she was to work with! Her passion for her craft really shows and from the jump she was kind and communicative. She used her vast knowledge of the Moab area to help us pick out the perfect spot for our shoot. On the day of our shoot she made us feel like we were old friends. We immediately felt at ease around her and had tons of great laughs and great conversation. As someone who doesn't normally love to be in front of the camera she made me feel like a natural. My partner and I couldn't stop gushing to each other about how much fun we had had during our shoot. Our pictures where really just the icing on the cake. When my partner and I first looked at them we both cried because they were so beautiful. Haley did such a spectacular job capturing our love. We will absolutely be finding a way to work with her again in the future!!
There aren't enough words to describe the magic that is Haley Nord. Her vision and art are unparalleled as a photographer. She has a unique gift for capturing the big and little moments, but especially the moments in between that illustrate the connection between people and their most special places. She makes you feel at ease by encouraging you to be yourself while also prompting you to explore and experiment, yielding the most authentic and vibrant photos you can imagine. From our engagement photos to our wedding photos, they are all the most beautiful depictions of who we are and what meant the most to us. I can't thank her enough for her professionalism, kindness, expertise and friendship along the way. Haley is bar none the best choice we made to be our photographer (and now friend). Thank you for immortalizing the best moments of our special day so that we can forever enjoy the memories!
If you're eloping, you need Haley. I could end the review there because that's really all you need to know.
Or I could share how diligent she was in getting to know both of us and what we wanted from the day. Or how she was a stealth ninja during our ceremony and we didn't even notice she was there but she still somehow managed to capture all the most beautiful details and moments. Or how the hundreds of photos she captured will be treasured for a lifetime. Or how professional while still personal she was throughout the whole process. Don't think, don't deliberate, hire Haley.
We had such a lovely experience photographing with Haley. She was so helpful, being that this was our first photoshoot together. We were worried about posing and looking awkward in our photos but she made us feel so comfortable and had plenty posing ideas for us. She put effort in getting to know us as a couple so that our pictures can reflect who we are. She nailed it! We are so in love with our photos and love sharing them with our family and friends. I would definitely recommend and work with her again! Thank you so much Haley!!

It was absolutely amazing working with Haley. The photos turned out better than we could have dreamed. She brought out unique qualities and gorgeous colors. She captured the little moments that we didn’t realize we would want memorialized forever. They’re so stunning, and all of our family and friends continue to tell us they are the best they have ever seen.
However, it was more than the photos. My wife and I traveled cross country for our elopement. We were nervous, but Haley made us feel comfortable and heard. She took the time to meet and communicate multiple times beforehand, and listened fully to our wants and needs. She provided a very caring, warm, professional, and easy going atmosphere. We are hoping to work with her again one day.
We love Haley! Working with her was the best! She connected us to some incredible vendors, took us to the most magical remote settings, and even drove down a truck load of pies for us from SLC! Her kind soul was comforting every step of the way. Even as the day had its hurdles, she was flexible and ready to just have fun with us. We put so much trust in her and the results were sweeter than we could have imagined! Her photos are not only jaw-dropping and gorgeous (because they truly do look magical!), she also managed to capture all the little details of our surroundings, subtle facial expressions and moments that brought me to tears seeing for the first time. I can really feel and taste that most special day when I look back through them. Working with Haley was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. What we got in return is simply invaluable. We are forever grateful for this gift!
When my partner and I were looking for a local photographer to capture our elopement, we were lucky enough to find Haley. What stood out about Haley before we even got to know her was (a) her work which if you’ve seen it speaks for itself (b) her passion and respect for the environment and context she photographs in and (c) her tremendous professionalism and expertise in what she does.
As we moved forward with planning the details of our elopement she truly helped us both plan and capture a special day far beyond our expectations. From scouting a gorgeous location, assisting with vendors to incorporate unique details and being so generous with ideas of ways to make our day even more special - she is truly an elopement expert. On the day of our elopement itself, Haley was such a positive and calming presence and she magically offered the perfect balance of offering guidance and letting us just live in the moment while she captures it. Haley is responsive, communicative and inspiring every step of the way and we can’t recommend her enough! I’m already trying to think up other reasons to get to work with her again.
Real, raw, amazing photos from a wonderful, positive human being. Haley is more than a photographer, she is support, direction, family management, and an idea machine! She makes you feel instantly comfortable and understood, capturing intimate and real moments--EXACTLY what you want on your wedding day. We eloped in the desert of Southern Utah and could not be more thrilled with our 'Haley Experience'...cannot recommend enough!!
