I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee). Based in Iowa, I serve the Midwest, Western NC, Denver, and beyond. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 150 weddings photographed, it still surprises me how my love for this industry grows each year. This work is not about me, it's about the individuals in front of my lens. I can’t tell an honest story if I’m constantly interfering, directing, and manipulating moments. I want your photos to render cherished memories from your day with your people, not memories of your photographer. I’m there to tell the beautiful and imperfect story as it unfolds.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We are beyond grateful to have had Haverlee as our wedding photographer. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful, and her warm, encouraging demeanor managed to make two somewhat awkward people actually feel comfortable in front of the camera! On the big day, Haverlee was so much more than just our photographer. She was a calming presence, a problem-solver (she even helped put pins in my hair!), and a true support system. Her expertise, organized timeline, and guidance made the day run smoothly! And then there's her work - absolutely stunning. She has such a gift for capturing real emotion—both the big moments and the quiet in-between ones. When we look at our photos, we’re transported right back to that day, and we can feel the pure joy all over again. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it shines through in her work. We’ll treasure our photos forever and feel so lucky to have had her as part of our day. We highly recommend Haverlee to capture your special moments, too!”

I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.”

Every wedding has its own rhythm. I'm inspired by the way a great film makes you feel like you're actually inside the story — the anticipation before something happens, the quiet moments between people, the movement, the atmosphere, and the unexpected frames you could never have planned. I photograph weddings with that same instinct, moving with what's already unfolding rather than forcing the day into a shot list or manufacturing moments. The images move between digital capture and authentic 35mm and medium-format film, giving each moment the rendering that suits it best — creating photographs that feel like frames from a film you happened to live inside.

“Caz and Sheldon were amazing to work with! Caz has such an amazing and special vision when it comes to photography and really captured our day to perfection and so beautifully.

From the start, they were super chill and easy to work with. On the big day, they were like ninjas, capturing every awesome moment without being in the way. They have such a knack for finding those perfect, candid shots that totally show the real us. Plus, the way they set up the posed photos. When we got our photos and the video, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing. They caught all the love, laughter, and even the crazy dance moves (hello, epic dance party!). The highlight reel was like a mini movie of the best day ever—we’ve already watched it a million times! The whole experience was just fun and stress-free, thanks to their good vibes and clear communication. They really listened to what we wanted and made sure we felt comfortable and relaxed. Thank you guys !”

Hey there! I'm Eric, an outdoor-loving, laid-back wedding photographer based in the Midwest who lives for capturing those real, unfiltered moments that make each love story unique. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll probably find me hiking trails or discovering new local breweries. My approach blends documentary-style storytelling with a touch of editorial flair—meaning I'll capture both those candid laughs during toasts and those naturally romantic moments during golden hour. The best photos happen when couples feel completely at ease and free to be themselves.

“I’m someone who usually avoids being in photos and never let anyone, not even my partner, take pictures of me. But working with Eric completely changed that. Quinn and I were blown away by our photos. The entire experience felt effortless, like hanging out with a friend. Eric is incredibly laid-back and easygoing, which made the session so enjoyable. If you’re camera-shy or nervous about having your photo taken, I can’t recommend Eric enough. You won’t regret it.”

“Working with Beth and Brian Hogan was an absolute joy from start to finish. They communicated openly throughout the planning process, walking me through their approach and showing me real-time previews of how shots would look—which completely eased my mind about the final product. What impressed me most was their collaborative spirit; they didn't just follow my mood board, they brought it to life in ways I hadn't even imagined. Their dedication to quality was evident in every detail, and their kindness and professionalism made the entire experience feel seamless. They're the kind of vendors you can trust completely, and I'd absolutely work with them again without hesitation.”
