Haley is such a talented photographer who made me feel so reassured, comfortable and relaxed...

Haley is such a talented photographer who made me feel so reassured, comfortable and relaxed. She had an incredibly artistic eye and made the afternoon so enjoyable. Haley was very helpful with her advice on outfits, style of photography and provided all the relevant information as to what to expect and how to prepare for the day. She was so generous of her time and energy and made you feel so special. She was approachable and responsive to emails, calls and messages. I highly recommend her for your next photoshoot.

Haley is a spectacular photographer. I had the chance of being photographed a couple of times by her and have been continuously blown away - it's always so much fun, full of laughs and a huge confidence boost. Haley easily creates a comfortable and welcoming environment, she is great at communicating and giving directions and she produces jaw dropping photos. Cannot recommend Haley enough - a true professional!

I couldn't recommend Haley enough. She's super accommodating, fun to work with whilst being extremely professional...

I couldn't recommend Haley enough. She's super accommodating, fun to work with whilst being extremely professional. Our team of four (none of us particularly photogenic), found her instructions & lead of great value. Haley, go up on your prices, you offer way more then what you charge for!

...Her quick turnaround time of images into a gallery for us to choose from was also really helpful...

Haley was amazing to work with! From initial contact and answering all our questions, being able to fit our session in at relatively short notice and coaching us through what would look good on the day. She made us feel super relaxed and comfortable while having our photos taken. Her quick turnaround time of images into a gallery for us to choose from was also really helpful. Would totally recommend her!

...I was feeling nervous and self-conscious but Haley made me feel at ease and relaxed - like the most important person in the world...

I would recommend Haley to anyone looking for photography and I'll return to Haley Adele photography the next time I need photos taken. I feel that she understands my goals well, she planned and carried out photography that would achieve those goals. Haley helped me feel at home. She is warm and kind and genuinely listened to me. She is quick to give feedback and seemed to intuitively understand how to put a smile on my face on and off camera.

.... Haley made the whole experience absolutely amazing throughout...

I took the plunge and booked in with Haley Adele Portraits for professional headshots and branding photos. Haley made the whole experience absolutely amazing throughout.
Haley had me absolutely speechless today going through my reveal! I honestly can't thank you enough for the time you gave me, the direction and laughs! I am most certainly booking in regularly for updated shots simply because everyone needs to see themselves through Haley's eyes. Haley, thank you so much! ❤

... It was truly special and a huge confidence boost to see myself looking my absolute best...

It was AMAZING being photographed by Haley the other day! Haley is a true inspiration to me and a fantastic mentor, I've assisted her in the studio and watched her work her magic with so many wonderful women, it was an honour to be on the other side of the action! It was truly special and a huge confidence boost to see myself looking my absolute best. Haley was wonderful working with my crazy kids and my hesitant husband too! Haley a genius with so many different types of photography - 1000% recommend her ❤

- Sarah Grayson

...She has created such a welcoming warm environment which really helped someone like myself relax in front of the camera...

Haley took my photo in her beautiful studio in Casabella Lane. She has created such a welcoming warm environment which really helped someone like myself relax in front of the camera. She provided so much guidance throughout, and combined with her genuine personality, created a very enjoyable experience for something that could have been quite nerve-wracking!

- Gabrielle Houghton

... I was so nervous to have my photos taken but Haley made the whole experience so much fun and I felt really confident after seeing the results...

Haley is so welcoming and amazing! I was so nervous to have my photos taken but Haley made the whole experience so much fun and I felt really confident after seeing the results. Such a cool photography studio, and her work is stunning! I have done a couple of photoshoots with Haley now and I have loved all of them!

- Shikita Smith

The team at Haley Adele Photography were amazing! They were very professional, friendly and approachable...

Haley is a true professional. Having a self portrait done was not something I ever planned to do. I was feeling nervous and self-conscious but Haley made me feel at ease and relaxed - like the most important person in the world. Highly recommend for a family or self-portrait, a generational photo or a group of friends. You are given an outstanding branding opportunity if you require a portrait for work as well. Thank you for using your outstanding experience & talent for creating a beautiful portrait. It was such a privilege!

Such a blast having Haley with us for a few days taking beautiful photography of my business. Couldn’t be happier. She understood what I wanted and took it to the next level. Thanks Haley 😘

...I am the most awkward person in front of the camera but she talked me through each step perfectly...

The fact that Haley managed to take not only one decent photo of me, but an entire album of them shows that she is one of the best photographers I know. Her calm and fun demeanor meant the whole session was fun and relaxed. I am the most awkward person in front of the camera but she talked me through each step perfectly. From one photographer to another, keep up the epic mahi!!

Haley is the utmost professional. Her nature puts you instantly at ease...
