I try to be professional, and not take blurry pictures, but sometimes it can’t be helped.

Kelly and her - [Olivia and Jimmy](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2017/06/02/olivia-and-jimmy-2/) - Can I just talk for a minute about how pretty the Nationwide Hotel & Conference Center is?

When we - [Sarah and Brandon](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2017/05/17/sarah-and-brandon/) - When I first met with Sarah and Brandon over coffee, it was easy to connect with them. They were so kind and down to earth. When I asked them what mattered the most for their photography, they said they wanted “real” moments captured.

I'm not a fan of checking the weather early in the week - [Baby Nora](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2017/04/20/baby-nora/) - I've been waiting to meet this baby! Michelle was one of the people who helped me feel beautiful on my wedding day (the best hair stylist-check her out). I loved getting to know Jeff more when I got to shoot their wedding later. The way he looks at her makes me so happy. And now, - [Kelley and Tim](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2016/12/16/kelley-and-tim/) - I loved meeting with Kelley and Tim just a few short weeks ago. He had recently surprised her by showing up and getting down on one knee while she was at DISNEY! I don't know about you, but to me, that is like a dream engagement. The happiest place on earth. We couldn't help but get - [Katie and Kevin](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2013/07/10/katie-and-kevin/) - I met Katie and Kevin through my brother and sister-and-law. You can tell they really enjoy each-others company , and they even had some impromptu dancing (which gave some great shots). Toward the end of the night they were strong enough to get the pose where Katie has her feet up in the air. This is - [Teresa and Joe](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2017/02/10/teresa-and-joe/) - Would you believe me if I told you these photos were taken the other day in about 20 degree weather? It was the first time I've ever had to edit foggy breath out of photos and the first time we've stopped a shoot multiple times to have car warm-ups.

When Cody and I look back over all the sweet couples and families that we got to document in 2016 our hearts just burst. If I'm going to be honest, we were a little worried about this year.

Later, I got - [Krista and Zack](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2017/01/03/krista-and-zack/) - The year-end always brings a lot of reflecting for Cody and I. We think about where the business is going, what's really meaningful to us, and what our future goals are. One of the things that remains so important to me is building relationships with our brides and grooms. Many of them feel like family - [Danielle and Rob](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2016/12/29/danielle-and-rob/) - Danielle is a dear friend from back in high school, and never would I have thought I would someday have the privilege of documenting her wedding to Rob.

We - [Lindsey and Austin](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2016/10/28/lindsey-and-austin/) - I LOVED getting to know Lindsey and Austin on their engagement session. It was so easy spending time with them because they seemed so stoked to be cuddling and taking pictures. All those giggles are real and un-posed.

I can't wait for their - [Sami and Caleb](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2016/10/27/sami-and-caleb-2/) - I could shoot this wedding over and over again. When Sami and Caleb asked us to come near the border of Kentucky for their wedding at The 100 Mile house I had no idea it would be so beautiful. Sami herself is stunning. Her and Caleb are pure and kind and it makes me smile - [Karli and Chris](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2016/10/23/karli-and-chris/) - Wow what can I say about this couple? Somtimes we shoot weddings where the bride and groom have already had their engagement photos taken. I get a little more nervous on the wedding day when we haven't spent as much time with each other yet, and I am always hoping the bride doesn't mind when - [Kelly and Jon](https://haileylaurenphotography.com/2016/10/07/kelly-and-jon/) - It's time for some more engagement sessions: I met Kelly during one of our very first weddings (Hi Kelsea!).

I knew that their wedding day would be peaceful and happy (and a little hot). Gregg and I had a running joke that the day would be over-run with the 17-year cicadas.
