PSA: Not all photographers are created equal. Yes, the market is crowded. Yes, everyone’s cousin’s neighbor’s dog has a camera. But Hi - I’m Hilary and I’m the real deal. My photos are not borrowed, stolen, fake, or “found on Pinterest”. I’m a portrait/wedding photographer whose style is natural, true‑to‑color, timeless, and classy. My work is high‑quality. My pricing is human. My sarcastic humor is free.
I keep my pricing competitive and affordable because I am someone who lives in the same world that you do, and understand real life in a world where groceries cost more than rent and nobody needs “I hope you’re sitting down” pricing to prove they exist. Affordable doesn’t mean inexperienced; it means I’m not trying to fund a yacht.
Also, I am one who doesn’t believe in limiting the images you end up with. When I deliver your gallery, you get the keepers. ALL of them. I’m not going to make you pick a select few, and then send the rest off to live on a deserted island.
I’m detail‑oriented, I know when to be serious, and I know when to laugh because real life is messy, hilarious, and worth capturing in all its chaos and beauty.
If you want photos that look like you and not like an Instagram filter had a midlife crisis, that are high-quality without requiring a second mortgage/GoFundMe/a lengthy conversation with your financial advisor, AND you want a photographer who’s the real deal (and sometimes a comedian), Congratulations! You found her.
