HI, I’M HAZEL!

I live in a small town outside of Portland, close to my family and raising three small kiddos. I was born on Maui, but have an English mother and a very strong tie to England. I've also lived in France, speak French, and adore the language (and the bread.).

I majored in communication and worked in advertising (I wanted to be the next female Don Draper), until I realized I hated agency life and quit on the spot. I shot my first wedding in 2010 as a freshman in college, but didn't fully dive in until 2019 after realizing I wanted to work for myself and fully commit to photography.

I'm a mother and a wedding photographer, and I'm so grateful I get to do both. Balancing my two worlds is a fun challenge, but they're two things that bring me so much joy, so I feel lucky to have it.

Inside my head

three kids + interior design + murder mysteries + humpback whales + England + cups of tea + tattoos + house plants + Downton Abbey + wildflowers + France + a very dirty martini with my husband + baby names + oak hard wood floors + history + spring time + chocolate croissants + stripes + classical music + fairies +Isla + August + Bernadette + a good pair of socks + Rupi Kaur Milk & Honey + a hot water bottle every day of the year

IT’S NOT THAT DEEP

I personally hate being in front of the camera, so my goal is to make you feel comfortable and at ease, and that looking and feeling beautiful in front of the camera is no big deal. One of the best compliments I receive is when a client says they’ve never felt more comfortable in front of the camera before.

With years of experience, I have an arsenal of prompts and poses and tricks to get you feeling comfy and in love. Whether it’s a family shoot, an engagement shoot, or a wedding, I adapt to the environment and chemistry to customize an experience that create imagery that reflects you.
