Hi! I’m Hallie (pronounced like Halle Berry)
…and I am obsessed with taking pictures of people.
I’ve been photographing people for over a decade and have been called such things as "therapist wedding photographer" because of my supportive and laid-back nature and also "ninja girl" by a little boy who watched me roll around in the sand and hurdle driftwood in order to capture a moment at a beach wedding. I am beyond flattered by both of these compliments and feel that they truly capture how I do my job - genuinely and with flexible agility.
My style is filled with movement, rawness, and authenticity. I consider it a "great photo" when I can feel your personality through the still frame. I tend to take a journalistic approach to shooting but, of course, fill any awkward moments with easy guidance and direction. . We’re probably right for one another if you plan to get soaked if it rains on your wedding day OR if you find your toddler having a complete meltdown in an otherwise perfect family photo to be frame-worthy. I tend to err on the side of warm and cinematic when it comes to editing and am always drawn to an interesting composition versus a perfect one.
Overall, I prefer to work with couples and families who share a progressive awareness; and, who have nothing but complete respect and admiration for one another.
I have been hired all over the Greater Northeast and am willing to travel anywhere, though I always prefer to stay in my favorite state - Vermont.
