August 2024 Wedding Review - Haley was one of the first vendors that I booked for our wedding and I have no regrets. She’s SO talented and also super easy to work with. Her entire process is seamless and stress free which was extremely helpful in the planning process and on the day of our wedding I could trust that everything would be taken care of. For our engagement shoot (which is included in our photo package), she was extremely flexible for dates and really worked with us to create the vision we wanted. She was also excited to shoot with our fur baby which was non-negotiable for us!
Haley was extremely communicative during the whole process and made us feel prepared for everything photography related! She organized everything between us and our lead photographer, John. We are beyond grateful to have had John as our wedding photographer. From the moment we met him during our engagement shoot, he immediately put us at ease in front of the camera. He not only captured stunning moments throughout our wedding day but also went above and beyond to ensure every special moment was documented beautifully. The photographs are nothing short of breathtaking. John has an incredible eye for capturing emotions and candid moments, resulting in a collection of images that truly tell the story of our wedding day. We highly recommend John to anyone looking for a talented wedding photographer. Thank you, John, for preserving our memories so beautifully. Your work will be cherished!
I can’t rave enough about Haley! She’s an absolute gem. From the moment we started planning, she welcomed us into her home, letting us change there and even having her sweet Nonna watch our dog during the engagement photos. On our big day, she made everything feel so effortless, fixing my hair and crafting the perfect timeline. She also made all the posed photos quick and painless, which was such a relief! Her warmth and creativity made every moment shine. Haley isn’t just a photographer; she’s like a fairy godmother who truly cares about her clients. We’re beyond grateful for everything she did. Highly recommend her!
As a newly wed, I don’t feel like I can accurately describe how phenomenal Haley & her entire team was, but here I go!
To start, my now husband & I are a NY couple who instantly fell in love with a Philly wedding venue, Portico Awbury Arboretum. We were provided with a comprehensive list of all recommended wedding vendors, which is where we found Haley!
From day one of our interactions with Haley, she made it organized, professional, seamless & exciting! We chose to have our engagement photos taken with Haley, I chose to do a boudoir photo shoot with Haley, in addition to, of course, our wedding day!
Each experience was not only so much fun, but each & every photo Haley & her team has taken has been absolutely breathtaking. From Haley’s photography style, to knowledge, to professionalism, Haley & her team were seamlessly able to capture all of the magic & then some.
We recently got our wedding “sneak peeks” back & when I say I happy sobbed looking through the gallery, I honestly could not believe how incredibly beautiful & meaningful each photo was. Realizing & recognizing that these incredibly beautiful photos will be our wedding photos for the rest of our lives, I was, still am & will always be so blown away.
Haley was the most calm, loving, warm, human, down to earth, patient & friendly photographer that I have ever met. Haley kept it fun, funny & lighthearted while snapping our forever moments. Haley is one of the most genuine people that I have ever met. Haley ensured consistently that my husband & I were getting the photos & details of exactly what we wanted to capture. I am still in awe of each picture from start to finish. Our whole home will be framed with her beautiful photos, that we will cherish forever.
I always knew I wanted to get married at a venue that cared for nature, trees & the environment. Not only did Haley capture the magic, joy, real & raw emotions from start to finish in nature, but she made me feel like the most beautiful bride. Haley & her team were able to capture ALL of that magic, plus so so many more precious, intimate moments that we will genuinely treasure forever.
In the process of capturing the magic, it is important to describe how Haley went ABOVE & BEYOND for my now husband & I. Not only did Haley take care of us, but she also took care of our families, our bridal parties & of course, all of our guests. Haley made sure that we ate, drank, stayed hydrated while seamlessly coordinating, communicating & planning with each & all of our vendors throughout the entire process. Haley helped me put my wedding dress, veil & shoes on. These are moments that you genuinely appreciate.
When an unexpected detail beyond anyone’s control happened (as things do in life!) Haley & her team completely handled, fixed & advocated for me. Haley kept me calm, and more importantly, in a lot of my key memory moments I will always credit Haley for being the one to have made those possible.
As a bride, it was important to me to honor my loved ones who I recently lost. Haley put so much love, respect & professionalism into ensuring each memorial in honor of my loved ones was set. For anyone who is grieving, small details like that, having someone like Haley means a whole lot.
Haley is a wedding vendor who was difficult to say goodbye to after the wedding is over! Even though we are not Philly based, we absolutely plan on working with Haley again!
I hope I am painting the picture of exactly the photographer & team that a bride & groom would want & be truly lucky enough to have on their wedding day.
Being a “long distance bride” I had to have so much trust & faith with my vendors. With Haley & her team, I could not have wished for a better experience. We do not have the accurate words to thank you, but, we genuinely thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for capturing our dream wedding!
XO Gillian & Paul
Haley’s photography is absolutely stunning and she is beautiful inside and out. Haley and her team captured our wedding day perfectly from our rehearsal dinner to the after party. We have so many beautiful memories to look back on thanks to her eye for detail and ability to capture candids seamlessly. We cannot recommend or thank Haley enough!
Haley Richter is an incredible wedding photographer! She captured every special moment with such artistry and attention to detail. Her ability to blend in seamlessly with our guests allowed her to take the most candid and beautiful shots. Haley's warm personality and professionalism made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. The photos exceeded all our expectations, and we are so grateful for the memories she preserved so beautifully. We highly recommend Haley Richter to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photographer. Thank you, Haley, for making our wedding day unforgettable!
We highly recommend using Haley Richter Photography for your wedding day!! John was incredible to work with from our engagement photos to wedding day. He is extremely friendly, personable, and fun. He makes you feel comfortable and relaxed in a moment when you could feel uncomfortable and awkward. Joe was our second photographer on wedding day. He was also very friendly. He even tied the groom's tie!! Haley was great to work with via phone and email from start to finish. She ensures the timeline for wedding day is perfect and that you capture all of the shots on your list! John and Joe even pulled out this list on wedding day making sure they grabbed every shot we wanted!!
We absolutely love the way our engagement photos turned out and cannot wait to see our wedding photos!
Haley did an incredible job for our wedding. We were blown away by her ability to capture moments from both our welcome dinner and reception/ceremony, with very high quality products. Her suggestions for where to take formal photos also was on point. Could not recommend more!
Haley was so incredible to work with. I loved all of the vendors at my wedding but Haley was the only one who truly felt like a friend before we even met in person on the day of my wedding. I was so impressed with the quality of the photos we got back. We had a smaller scale wedding in a space that I had not originally imagined my big day and I was a bit nervous about photos for this reason. Haley ensured our pictures were classy, timeless, and elegant. We can’t thank Haley enough!
I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Keristin at Haley Richter Photography. From our intro call to the final delivery of our wedding photos, she totally exceeded all of our expectations. The quality of work is simply outstanding. Our wedding photos are breathtaking, capturing every special moment, emotion, and detail beautifully.
Keristin and Joe were an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. They arrived early and were well-prepared, ensuring that they didn't miss any important moments. They were skilled at capturing candid moments as well as orchestrating posed shots with precision and creativity, and we were so impressed and appreciative of how they blended in so seamlessly and were never obtrusive or overbearing. Their attention to detail and commitment to perfection was evident throughout the entire process, and we were left in awe by the artistry and storytelling in each image.
I wholeheartedly recommend Haley Richter Photography to any couple looking for a skilled and personable photography team. They made our wedding day even more memorable, and we are forever grateful for their talent and dedication, and the gorgeous photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
The minute I saw the online photos from Haley Richter Photography, I was set they would be our photographers for our October wedding. The lighting and perfect simplicity of their photos are beautiful!
We ended up booking John Pasquale as our wedding photographer and he was wonderful. We were able to meet him a year before the wedding for our engagement shoot and he made us feel right at home and comfortable. Even as we took photos at Longwood Garden with many onlookers, John kept us laughing and focused on why we were there - each other.
For our wedding, John was awesome! He immediately came in and had me take a few deep breaths which centered me and really kicked the day off on the right foot. John and Helena (our second shooter) were both really fun and engaging and made everyone feel comfortable. They honored our shot list but also made sure to use their creative freedoms to get the best shots and capture the best moments.
Throughout the planning process, Haley was there to support if I had any questions. She put together a great timeline and worked with my day of coordinator to make sure everything lined up and worked for our day. She was really accommodating and sweet.
We received a sneak peek in less than a week which was so exciting and we absolutely love the photos so far. We can't wait to see the rest. We highly recommend Haley Richter Photography and loved working with John.
Haley and team are the best! Keristin did our engagement and wedding day photos. Flawless. We love the photos more than we can describe and have been so excited to share them with family and friends. She did such a nice job capturing formal, informal, candid and fun moments that we can have as memories now forever. Our photos are so beautiful and really capture the whole essence of the day - it was perfect. Thank you Keristin, Rachel and team!
We worked with Keristin for our engagement shoot and wedding (along with Rachel), and had an amazing experience! They immediately made us feel comfortable and gave prompts for different poses - they both have great senses of humor and easy-going, calm demeanors (perfect for wedding day!). She also turned around sneak peek photos super quickly, which was very appreciated! Throughout the whole process of working together, the team was always professional and accommodating - we highly recommend working with them for any of your photography needs!
Haley and John were so amazing to have with us on our wedding day in Philadelphia. We could not have asked for better photographers, they were so professional, fun and creative with all the shots they took of us. They also kept the day on schedule and made sure we had plenty of time socialize and have fun during our reception. Both Haley and John interacted with the guests and truly felt like a part of our day, our guests could not stop complimenting them. They were also quick to send over our preview and the photos are absolutely stunning, I would hire them over and over again worth every single penny!
From the engagement shoot to communications throughout planning to the day of our wedding, John was not just our wedding photographer but a reliable source to lean on during our wedding process. My husband and I instantly felt a connection with John which created a foundation of comfort for us both in front of the camera and beyond. He was an absolute delight to work with and captured our big day immaculately!
We had John photograph our wedding and he was an absolute delight! I am a fairly awkward person and don't really enjoy getting my picture taking, but John made me feel so comfortable and at ease. Our pictures were absolutely gorgeous and captured the mood of the day perfectly.
From the moment we met John we felt right at ease with having him photograph our special day. His charisma and energy was warm and welcoming which helped us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the day!
Haley and John met with us to walk through our vision for our wedding day as well as the timing of everything. What we originally thought would be overwhelming was completely stress free and they were able to help us navigate making sure we were able to capture all of our a special moments. I never felt more reassured with their attentiveness and continued check ins leading up to the big day!
John photographed our intimate rehearsal dinner the night before our wedding. This was the first time we met him in person and it was like meeting an old friend. His lighthearted banter and warm presence were such a pleasure. His keen eye captured such a beautiful evening with friends and family!
On our big day John was able to capture all of the details in the day for us to have as memories as well as the joy and celebration in us and our guests. He was sure to capture all of the candid moments of raw emotion that my husband and I shared as well as to make us feel at ease while photographing the portrait style photos we wanted. The vision and styling John used to ensure we took advantage of the beautiful arboretum was stunning.
Emotional is defiantly one way to describe our wedding day. We had some special moments to highlight during our first look that John was able to capture for us that really made the day special for my husband.
We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about John! We are so thankful that we found him and could not recommend him enough!
I loved working with the business owner, Haley, as well as our photographer, Keristin. I chose this business because they went to art school and are very skillful- her work speaks for itself! She was sweet and easy to work with and our sneak peaks (130+ photos in 4 days!) are incredible. We are fully in love with our photos and could not have asked for anything more. Book these ladies if you want elegant, bright, design-focused photographs.
I can’t say enough great things about Haley Richter Photography! John our photographer was great. He made our engagement photos and weddings day special by capturing all of our special moments. I love that he was able to capture the beauty of our wedding while also hiding all of my flaws. I would for sure use their services again !
From our very first video chat to the day of the wedding, Haley has been beyond amazing to work with. I could not have been happier with how calming, yet fun she was day of the wedding. She made my husband and I feel so at ease in front of the camera. Her portfolio speaks for itself, but I was still stunned over how beautiful our photos came out. I truly cannot recommend Haley and her team enough. Simply the best!
This review is long overdue - Haley was absolutely amazing from the very first time we spoke on the phone through our engagement shoot and ultimately our wedding day. She even traveled up to Brooklyn for our engagement session, which at the last minute included our new puppy, and became the most adorable set of family photos ever. After we saw how magical the engagement session turned out I knew Haley would capture the wedding perfectly. With two big families, she kept the portraits part of the day moving, made sure to get the candid moments, and grabbed us for the shots we wanted but wouldn't have been able to remember on the day (taking us outside at night for evening shots, getting us alone for a few minutes after the ceremony before my veil came off, etc.)
She was also incredibly helpful in planning the timing of the day, and worked with our venue coordinator on arrivals, having people in the right locations at the right times, and making it so that my husband and I didn't have to also be wedding planners on our wedding day.
I cannot recommend Haley Richter enough, both for her friendly professionalism and for the amazing photos she captured of us and our families. Book her, you will absolutely not regret it.
I cannot say enough great things about Keristin and Haley. We booked Haley Richter Photography before we even locked down our venue and this was the best investment we could've made. Keristin was really flexible - we changed our venue a little over half a year after booking them and she was willing to fly into Chicago for our new venue. Keristin asked us a lot of questions to make sure she understood what our vision was and what was important to us. On the day of, she got all of our shots without making it seem like our wedding was dictated by a photo schedule, which I've seen at a lot of other weddings. Her and her team were so easy to work with on that day and then she even got us our sneak peeks a day or two after the wedding!! The photos came out beautiful, with their special impressionistic glowy touch. Wedding photography can feel pricey, but trust me that it's truly worth it when you get your photos back and you feel like you're back in the moment!
Haley was so unbelievable to work with on our wedding day as well as the months leading up! She had a contagious positive attitude and was so adaptable to everything that we asked for. The sneak peeks for our wedding day look incredible and we are so excited to see the rest of the photos!
I cannot recommend Haley Richter Photography enough! Keristin and John not only took amazing photos, they also brought such calm, positive, and fun energy, helping us and our guests feel comfortable in front of the camera. We received our sneak peeks very soon after our wedding, and we were absolutely blown away by how stunning our photos were— we can’t wait for the full gallery! We had to reschedule due to the pandemic and throughout that process, Haley and Keristin were extremely professional and organized. We’re so grateful that we were able to work with them and we could not be more thrilled to have had our wedding captured so beautifully!
Haley Richter has a beautiful eye for the in-between moments as well as creating stunning editorial images. We had the pleasure of working with Haley & John for our May wedding and each photo delivered is a work of art. On the day of, they brought a warm and helpful presence, making everyone feel comfortable. My husband loved having John for his groom prep - he was funny and fit in well with our group of wild guys. I had complete and full trust in Haley to capture our wedding; she consistently creates beautiful work throughout her entire career. We would highly recommend for any couples looking for elegant, genuine, and meaningful images from their wedding.
Coming from a bride who is a perfectionist and who takes every little detail so seriously, believe me when I say that Haley is the best vendor we booked for our wedding day. Haley is incredibly talented and her photos are insanely breathtaking. Not only is she the most talented photographer, but she was so helpful throughout the entire planning process helping us with the timeline of our day and any questions that popped up. Then on our wedding day, Haley basically doubled as a day of coordinator. She practically ran the show, keeping everything on schedule, while helping everyone feel calm throughout the whole day. Haley and John were so great to have on my wedding day, making us smile and laugh while capturing our day so beautifully. I cannot say enough good things about Haley and her team. They are a dream to work with and I am so blessed I got to have her as our photographer on our wedding day!!
What’s easy to see is that Haley’s work is immaculate. She’s a magician behind the lens and in editing, capturing both your big and small moments with stunning authenticity. She’s super easy to work with, quick to respond, and deliver. But what you might not know yet is what an incredible human she is. On your wedding day, aside from your SO, you spend the most time with your photog. I can say with pure honesty, there is no one we’d rather spend our day with. She is an actual ray of sunshine bringing a positive, calming energy, while also keeping your day on track. We had a major wedding day disaster. Haley and our secondary photog, Chloe, went WAY outside their responsibilities, to help us fix it, clear tears away, make us smile and be the ultimate hype women. They went above and BEYOND when we needed it most. In fact, they felt like family. We will forever be grateful and cherish the memories we have with Haley and Chloe. They are the best decisions we made (aside from marrying each other :) !!!). We’re looking forward to a lifetime of working with Haley to capture our sweetest moments!
I don’t even know where to start, Haley was an absolute dream to work with! She was one of the first vendors I booked after getting engaged because I knew right away we needed to have her capture our big day! From Rescheduled engagement sessions to our wedding day she was responsive, flexible, fun and really knows her stuff. I can’t recommend her and her team enough, these are memories I will cherish forever and I’m so grateful they were captured by Haley!
Keristin and Rachel were so amazing on our wedding day and captured the most stunning pictures! They were both such a joy to have around and brought the best energy to our day. They got us sneak peak pictures 2 days after the wedding and I am already obsessed! Keristin also went above and beyond helping us with planning and even made a mood board early in the planning process to help us nail down our vision. I absolutely love their light, romantic style of photos and I could not be happier with mine. Seriously, they may be a bit more expensive but so worth it - invest in beautiful pictures that you will cherish forever.
Truly cannot express how wonderful Haley was throughout our wedding process. She went above and beyond to help with everything from navigating COVID to recommending vendors. Our day truly would not have been the same without the incredible energy Haley & John brought to our day (John has the most wonderful & infectious laugh that kept us smiling ALL DAY LONG)! There truly aren't many photographers out there who will wear your veil as a scarf to keep it from blowing away. There just aren't words to describe how special Haley & her team are. We have so cherished being able to get to know them & our photos are simply to die for! Our guests have not stopped raving about how wonderful they were - they captured every detail and made all of our guests feel so special!
I can not say enough positive things about Haley and the team. She was punctual , energetic, and focused. We did not feel at any point in time the photos were awkward or intrusive. The artistic style of shooting film and digital is what drew us to choose Haley Richter for our wedding. And it was a pleasure to watch her switch between the 2 seamlessly.
Working with Keristin from Haley Richter Photography was the best experience!! From the beginning, Keristin was very understanding and flexible about what we wanted captured throughout the wedding day, and was extremely communicative leading up to the wedding. Wedding day, Keristin and John were a pleasure to work with, making the photos fun and painless (my husband hates photos) but capturing everything we had hoped for. The end result is amazing - the photos are absolutely gorgeous, such high quality and we are obsessed with them. We could not recommend this team any more highly!
I can't recommend Haley enough! Haley's work speaks for itself, but what's even better is her calm, professional, and encouraging demeaner. She helped to make my wedding day run smoothly and was also a huge help in calming my nerves prior to the ceremony. As a wedding photographer myself, I had high expectations for who I'd hire to capture our day -- and so far, Haley has exceeded them. We have not received our full gallery yet, but the "sneak peeks" are stunning! We've already printed out several of the images and cannot WAIT to see all of the photos soon. Haley captured the beauty, emotion, and colors of our day wonderfully. Photography is an investment and with Haley, your money will be well spent.
Haley was such a pleasure to have for our engagement pictures and our wedding! She makes people who are not used to getting pictures done very comfortable- and knows how to get the shot! She’s very organized, and made sure we had all of the shots we needed! We got married in Old City- and she recommended great places for our first look and group pictures, even stopping at a small garden for an impromptu shoot!
So many of our guests came up to me at the wedding to let me know how great Haley and her associate were. She also happens to be a lovely person, which is such a plus when you spend multiple hours your wedding with someone! She was an amazing part of our day!
It was an absolute dream to have Keristin capture us on our wedding day! They were the first vendor we booked and it was the best decision we made through the whole wedding planning process! Haley was so helpful in our first initial phone call and from that moment to the very end, working with her and Keristin as our wedding day photographer was awesome! We just received our sneak peeks back and I’m already so obsessed and in awe with what she’s captured - can’t wait to get the rest back! Their work is just so incredibly stunning, we can’t recommend them enough!!
I honestly would not have had my wedding without Haley as my photographer. She takes the most stunning photos and is the absolute sweetest person to work with. Not only is Haley a talented photographer but she was there to help us every step of the way throughout the wedding planning process. She has a knack for making everyone feel comfortable, which leads to the perfect shots. When we saw the sneak peek of our photos I was honestly blown away. The magic that we felt on our wedding day was captured, and I can’t thank Haley enough. She is confident, creative, organized, and has wedding photography down to a science. Haley and Rachel got through our entire shot list before the ceremony even began, and we had so much fun with them!
Choosing to work with Keristin at Haley Richter Photography for our wedding was the absolute best decision! We hired Keristin for our September 2021 wedding at Terrain and she did an absolutely phenomenal job the day of and leading up to the day. Keristin was such a calming presence the day of our wedding and kept everything on track. She is so friendly and professional. The photos turned out absolutely amazing and everything I could have hoped for! My favorite part is that she sent sneak peeks just a few days after the wedding, which was so nice. We also worked with her for our engagement photos, which turned out just as great. I highly recommend Keristin and Haley!
Haley is the kindest, most talented, most calming and wonderful presence - we absolutely couldn't imagine having our wedding photos taken by anyone else! As anyone who has seen her work could guess, the photos themselves are stunning, but it is also just a pleasure to work and get to hang out with Haley, who really has her clients' comfort levels and best interests as her top priority. Her co-photographer, Morgan, was also wonderful, and they worked extremely well together as a team, capturing all of our most important moments. Highly, highly recommend!
Haley was AMAZING. She was very laid back, but knew exactly where to take great shots on our day. She gave good instruction without being over bearing and was overall just a joyful presence that added to a wonderful experience. She offered great suggestions, but totally allowed us to control where/when we took photos. Her co-photographer was just as great. Getting different shots and coming up with creative ideas and taking "in the moment" images. Overall Haley was worth her rate and more. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding day.
Haley + Keristin! I was lucky enough to get to work with both of these amazing ladies during our wedding adventure! Keristin shot our engagement session and our micro wedding in 2020 and honestly made taking pictures the easiest and most comfortable process. Not only was she easy to talk to and made us feel comfortable, but her work is also breathtaking! We had to postpone our big celebration due to COVID and Keristin wasn’t available (shooting another wedding), but Haley stepped right in! She too is a blast to work with and made it feel like our first wedding day. Haley made sure to make this day feel a little different and special too so we could capture what we missed out on in 2020. Not just the pictures and work are BEAUTIFUL but Haley and Keristin are extremely easy to work with, very organized, and the nicest people in the world. I cannot stop staring at our photos from last year’s event and the sneak peaks from this year! How do I pick only a few to hang on our walls!? I wish I could hang every single one up to show off the work! Each time I share the photos I get RAVING reviews. You cannot go wrong in hiring Haley Richter Photography! THANK YOU, Haley and Keristin!
BOOK HALEY!! Haley was amazing - all of our photos are so beautiful! Not only does she do an amazing job in photography, but she was great to have there for the day. I didn't have any expectations for a photographer, as I just assumed they take pictures during the day and won't have any other interaction. But OMG did Haley make the day so much better! Not only was she there documenting such as special day for us, but she was great with all of the kids (getting them to smile for the pictures), she helped me with my veil, she saw when I was stressed and just helped me stay calm! It really felt like we were spending the day with a friend! I highly highly recommend Haley as your photographer! You don't realize how much this person is part of the day and how much they really can make it more special and less stressful. Haley is the way to go for your wedding!!!
Haley Richter Photography will turn your wedding into a piece of art that could hang in the Louvre. It's crazy looking at our wedding photos because we cannot believe how GORGEOUS they are. We knew we were extremely lucky to have Haley and Jon (if the Haley Richter Photography team are somehow available on your day - run don't walk! And if they're not available - change your date haha!) but that feeling of getting those photos after the wedding is over and having them be that INCREDIBLE is something else. I could literally frame every photo (and might just try). Somehow, Haley got into our dreams of what we wanted our wedding to look like and made it just that (but also way better)!
First of all, Haley has been with us for nearly 3 years! Yes, 3! Through thick and thin. Postponing our wedding once, thinking we'd have it the next year. Then COVID came and so we postponed again a couple of months thinking we'd be under restrictions for 2 weeks (we all know how that went!) and so we had to pick another date the following year, but had to change the venue because of everything, and then we had to alter from an 80 person wedding to half of that to keep people safe, and when I tell you Haley did not once even hesitate to stick with us with a smile on her face... she. is. a. saint.
On our wedding day, we arrived late but Haley and Jon kept things on track and moving. Some things were not quite ready and Haley was the friend I needed to get things going. Jon captured handsome photos of hubby and a beautiful photo of us dancing n the porch before heading into the reception (just to name a few!). We made it down the aisle right on time and still got to do our first look and everything just as we wanted beforehand. With family portraits, Haley was a star! She kept everyone on track, and even got cute photos of the screaming babies that are precious and as special as the Mona Lisa - artwork I tell you. The way she organized everyone and paid attention to detail was extremely helpful. As the bride, you may notice a tie is not straight or if you're like me, your shoulders shrug. Haley jumps in and makes sure things are perfect! She's like your sister and will make sure your photos are right.
Now, would you believe that she sent us a sneak peak of our photos at breakfast the next morning!? I still can't believe it. Does she sleep?! We opened our photos and they were out of a magazine. Light, airy, but still personable and real. Everything I remembered was right there and as MAGICAL as it felt. She captured not just pictures but the feeling of the day. You can see the smiles, the laughs, the fun, the happy tears, the emotion and almost touch it. Our day was encapsulated.
I could write a novel about Haley and the team and it wouldn't be enough. I honestly miss her lol Anyway, if you're going to invest in something for your wedding, consider this. We see "Pintrest Weddings" and it seems impossible, but here it is and better - it's real and yours. You will be thanking Haley Richter Photography and yourself for years to come for choosing them. This is your sign. This is what you're looking for. Worth every penny an we'd do it all again.
We had Keristin (and her team) at our wedding this past May and she was amazing! Photography was very important to me and I was so happy to have found them after several weeks of searching. We fell in love with her creativity and true artistry (especially her use of film!!!). Keristin did an amazing job for our engagement shoot and we received so many compliments on our photos. Just when we didn’t think things could get any better, Keristin blew us away with our wedding sneak peek photos as well and we can’t stop looking at them! They have been great with communication throughout and we couldn’t have asked for a better team!
This team is truly the best and I cannot rave about them more (my friends are tired of me showing them our pictures / recommending on instagram). Haley is the sweetest person and a dream to work with. We knew after our first meeting with her she was perfect to shoot our day and we immediately vibed over our vision and our dogs. John had us laughing the entire time and was a champ to deal with the groomsmen all day :) It was a hot, June day and both Haley and John made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire day.
Based on the pictures, you never would've known we were sweating outside! The attention to detail is impeccable. We got our sneak peeks in and we were blown away by how amazing they were! Their attention to detail is impeccable, and they both grabbed pictures of the day that truly showed how beautiful our day was.
Haley & her team are PURE MAGIC! They're the most incredible/kind/friendly people who not only make your special day/occasion pure bliss, but the final images they produce are consistently beyond your wildest dreams beautiful. I can tell you from experience, our engagement session: incredible, our micro-wedding: STUNNING, law school grad photos: perfection... and we haven't even had our BIG wedding celebration yet! Special days in your life are not just about the photos, and Haley and her team make sure you are present, enjoying, and soaking up every moment of it- while also capturing the joy so that you can re-live those moments for years to come. If that's not magic, I'm not sure what is! So so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Haley Richter Photography!
Haley and John were amazing at our wedding. From getting an uncooperative 4 year old to pose to making our photos and the day a breeze! She and her team are amazing! We couldn't have asked for better photos! My husband and I highly recommend her and cannot wait to use her again for family portraits!
I don't even know where to begin to express how stunning Haley's photos are. I have used Haley Richter Photography for my engagement, micro-wedding, and large wedding. Not only are her photos breath taking, she is also the sweetest person in the world. She helped me with every aspect the day of the wedding. Whether it was running to grab a jacket for me, putting on my veil, changing my shoes - she was always right next to me helping in anyway she can. She is incredibly talented and makes you feel like the most beautiful bride. I can't wait to work with her on our next event!
Haley is the best photographer we could've asked for. Our wedding wouldn't have succeeded without her. She guided us through the twists and turns of a pandemic wedding - something we never thought we'd have to prepare for. And day of the wedding, she truly stepped up and became our wedding planner as our only vendor at our small wedding. She wrangled our puppy, helped guide our parents and grandparents, and calmed our nerves as we managed a wedding with masks and social distancing. She was so gracious and we'll be forever grateful for her friendship, and of course, her stunning photos. Everyone is in awe of her photography when we show it to her.
We couldn't be ANY happier with our wedding photos and our experience working with Haley!!! Our photos are EVERYTHING AND MORE! It was a no brainer after meeting and talking to Haley on FaceTime that she was our photographer. I really appreciated how organized she was-having a google doc with all the shots listed out and a timeline for the day! Haley is super responsive, experienced, and professional and we had all the confidence in her to capture our day and be a joy to work with and I can 110% say that was exactly the case! We did have to plan around COVID and she was always available to help us through the unknowns, changing of plans, and reassuring us it would still be wonderful. She was flexible and truly listened to everything we wanted. I had several requests and ideas and she followed through which was much appreciated! AND THEN... we got our galley and OH. MY. GOSH!!! I'm obsessed. I can't pick even a few favorites because they are all amazing! Haley and her assistant Anthony captured our day so beautifully.. I am so so happy because our wedding photos were always a top priority for me :) They made us all feel extremely comfortable taking our pictures especially given we hadn't had any previous sessions- our wedding day was the first time we met in person but they made it so easy! Our day went so smoothly because of Haley's organization and leadership! She kept us on schedule and not feeling like a total whirlwind! A true joy to work with! Everyone (family and bridal party, etc.) had a blast and the pictures came out better than I dreamed!!! All who were involved had SO many wonderful things to say about Haley! And all who have seen our photos were just blown away!! We could sense Haley's true passion, joy, and happiness to be apart of our day - like she was geniunely happy for us and to be taking photos! I can't recommend Haley Richter Photography enough!! They are true professionals and artists!! And I can't wait until Haley captures our reception this December... MORE photos that I won't be able to decide on what to print, post, etc. !!
I cannot recommend Haley & team enough!!!! My (now) husband & I were planned to get married on 5/2/20. Due to Covid, 6 weeks prior to our 1st wedding date, we were forced to postpone our 200 person wedding to September. Scrambling to figure out date changes and vendor availability, Haley was so responsive, attentive, and supportive. She always made herself available throughout the entire time we worked with her, but specifically around the chaos of COVID changes. I cannot thank you enough for that. From the first phone call with Haley, I just knew she was our photographer! Not only does she take the MOST gorgeous photos (truly perfect), but she has the sweetest personality. She was so organized and immediately showed how much of an expert she really is in this industry. Haley & John were absolutely incredible to work with on the day. I was so impressed with how creative they were to get the perfect shots. They are such comfortable people to be around & really made taking photos fun! When we got back our photos, I could not believe that was our wedding. Haley is truly an expert and every single photo was STUNNING. I am so thankful to have these photos to look back on and remember the best day ever!! Thank you Haley & team!! You are so insanely talented and I am so grateful to have worked with you. Thank you so much!!
Haley and Keristin are truly incredible! We met these ladies after Keristin photographed our engagement last year and then Haley photographed our micro wedding this year!
Keristin did a beautiful job capturing our surprise engagement on Addison Street in the rain! We actually used her all of her photographs for our save the dates and then again for our "rain check" postponement announcements :) She did an amazing job navigating a surprised finance, a new puppy, and the rain in Rittenhouse Square on a busy Friday morning. We have these special photos framed all over our house. Truly beautiful.
Haley was so incredibly helpful after we postponed our large October 2020 wedding and decided to proceed with a smaller ceremony instead. She was so willing to jump on the phone to walk through details and help brainstorm ideas for our small but super special day. We have already received our sneak peek of the album, and I cannot wait to see the rest - again, so incredibly beautiful! She captured moments I didn't even know I wanted to have forever. I am so grateful and cannot wait to work with Haley again next year for our big October 2021 celebration.
I recommend these ladies to everyone looking for wedding (but also any other photography needs). Haley photographed my husband and I along with our extremely energetic puppy for our holiday cards this year, and I plan to use Haley and Keristin for ALL my photography going forward. They are so talented and truly lovely ladies to work with.
There are too many good things to say about Haley!!!! I found her page on Instagram and immediately fell in love with her work and quickly reached out to try to book for her wedding that was under a year away. After talking to Haley on the phone and meeting her during our engagement session, I knew we had 100% made the right choice. Besides her amazing photos, Haley is so fun and personable and makes you feel comfortable with her immediately! Which definitely shows in our photos. Besides all of that, throw in a pandemic to a wedding where we changed our wedding plans and location THREE times. Haley never flinched and just jumped on board with the new plan as to how we could still best capture our day. She is detail oriented which takes so much of the headache out of planning your day and timeline and just has great overall vision. Long story long - if you have the chance to book Haley for your wedding... DO IT! You will not regret it!
My fiancé (now husband) and I decided on 09.08.2020 to have a micro-wedding to keep our original date of 10.02.2020. Talk about last minute! Once we decided on the venue, our next thought was the photographer. Haley Richter Photography was highly recommended by Catie at the Spring Mill Café (our venue)! We reached out and Haley said John was available for our special day. Both Haley and John were extremely helpful and energetic from the start. They helped to make a timeline beforehand which made our big day a breeze. From the moment John arrived at the hotel, I knew it was going to be a great day. He made JD and I feel at ease and made sure to stick to the timeline and get our most important pictures! He also coached us on how to look natural with our poses, which is something we needed! He is overall very creative and made sure to get us the stunning pictures we were hoping for! I would recommend Haley Richter Photography and John to anyone who is looking for a wonderful team to capture your special day!
We cannot pick our favorite picture because each one is absolutely stunning. It is evident that Haley is a genuinely amazing human being. After three different wedding dates and two venues due to a COVID world, Haley worked with us throughout the whole process and ensured that our day would be amazing. As an LGBT couple, Haley was inclusive, supportive, and made us feel like a million dollars in front of her camera. Her artistic eye is obvious and she was sure to capture every detail. She was friendly, easy to work with, and our family, friends, and acquaintances tell us our pictures look like they are from a magazine. We look forward to creating our wedding album with Haley and cannot wait to receive our full album! The 660 collective vendors were all amazing!
I don’t even know where to start but Haley was absolutely amazing. From all the phone calls we had to her capturing everything I could imagine and more. We had a small intimate beach wedding and she was amazing. She got to capture all the photos I wanted and more since it was so small. It was cloudy and rainy the day of our wedding and I was so worried about the clouds but the pictures are amazing and stunning. We even got a highlight reel the day after our wedding. I am so lucky to have found Haley and can’t wait to see our whole album,
Hiring Keristin as our engagement and wedding photographer was the best decision we made during our wedding planning process! Keristin is so incredibly talented, organized, easy to talk to and eager to help. Thanks to COVID, we had to make adjustments to our original plan, Keristin was flexible and offered knowledgeable advice to help make the process less stressful. We received our sneak peeks and we are thrilled! We cannot wait to receive the final gallery. Thank you, Keristin! You are truly talented!
Keristin from Haley Richter Photography was the best wedding photographer we could have asked for and we couldn't have been happier. She was so genuine, sweet, funny, professional, and just all-around so amazing to work with. She was super organized and helped us create a timeline for the wedding day. She also made taking photos so easy and so much fun! Her talent and ability to capture the sweetest moments throughout our big day made our wedding even more special. We got our sneak peeks the day after and we were just amazed at how beautiful they were! They’re so romantic, bright, and really showcase our happiness and love. We can’t wait for the final gallery!
Haley and her team were wonderful start to finish. Her aesthetic is beautiful, and it's so clear she absolutely adores what she does. Haley was truly our easiest vendor to work with - extremely organized, professional, funny and brought a great energy to the day. We'll cherish our photos forever.
We absolutely loved using Keristin from Haley Richter Photography! From the moment we had our first call with Keristin and Haley, we knew we wanted to work with this incredibly talented and energetic team. Keristin was super flexible scheduling our engagement photo session in NYC and in the months leading up to the wedding she sent very helpful emails detailing things we should be thinking about like timeline for the wedding day and which portraits we wanted, etc. On our wedding day Keristin arrived to the venue early to check out the best spots for pictures and lighting. She made taking pictures fun and enjoyable and most of the time we forgot she was even there snapping away! We received a sneak peak of about 40 pictures two days after the wedding and the full gallery about 8 weeks later. The results were amazing and it felt like we were reliving our wedding day all over again! Keristin caught so many special moments on film that we will cherish forever. I can't recommend Keristin enough!
Let me start by saying that Haley from HRP was the first vendor I booked (before I even had a venue). From the moment I met her, I knew I wanted to work with her on my wedding day. Haley and Keristin both have great personalities and you can tell that they are passionate about what they do. Haley was super responsive from the start, promptly answering all my questions and emails. As far as my pictures go...THEY ARE STUNNING! I knew from the second I got sneak peeks of my engagement photos that I had made the absolute best choice in hiring her. My pictures were versatile and stunning, bright and romantic. I especially can't say enough good things about how our wedding photos turned out. They truly tell a story of the day and I am obsessed. It ended up being a cloudy/drizzly day for my wedding and you truly would never even realize it by looking at my 300+ pictures which are so beautiful. Nothing looks forced or staged either and she captured so many amazing candids. Haley also gave so many great recommendations during my planning process in terms of additional vendors and ideas and helped me a lot with various things I was stuck on. I am so thankful to have found HRP and I will continue to recommend her and Keristin to future brides in Philly :)
We chose to shoot with Keristin + one extra shooter. We couldn't ask for a better photographer! Throughout our engagement, Haley Richter was always keeping us informed on our timeline, when to come to meet up, etc. The day of, both shooters were on time (Keristin was even nearly half an hour early!!) She kept my nerves down all day by having a clear, well-timed plan. We expected maybe 2 or 3 photos for our sneak peeks, and were astounded to have nearly 50 photos for us the Monday after our wedding. I know there are much more expensive photographers than Haley Richter in the area, but we can honestly say we don't think they would be better than Haley Richter. I hope we can come down and do a shoot again with our dog sometime!!
Haley has an incredible eye for photography and her light and airy style just enhances the beauty of your big day. Haley and her team is a dream to work with she made it so easy and stress free with her amazing advice and suggestions of other vendors to use. I was able to hire my makeup artist based on her suggestion (Shimmer and Spice). Haley is amazingly kind and funny and has the patience of a saint! Especially when my family made getting our family portrait as simple as herding cats. If you are looking for a photographer please look no further than Haley! On top of her ability to take the most breath taking (non cookie cutter) pictures, she sends you a few prints of your engagement shoot, as well as, a gorgeous glass box to hold some of your best wedding pictures, while you wait on your wedding album. Thank you Haley for all of your hard work, we cannot thank you enough for capturing the best day of our lives.
We used Keristin for our October 2019 wedding and I truly could not recommend her more! Hands down the best vendor we worked with. When we were looking for a photographer we wanted really beautiful photos for the mantel, but it was equally as important to us that we have photos that capture who we truly are, and the raw emotions of the day. Keristin delivered beyond our expectations. Our photos are stunning, but they are so much more than pretty to us. I feel like our kids will look at them in 20 years and know what it was like to be in the room that night.
Beyond the photos, Keristin was extremely organized and super calm in the face of a 34 person bridal party. She put me at ease the entire day. Our wedding coordinator had an emergency at the last minute, so we had a friend with no experience fill in. Keristin helped pick up the slack in anyway she could with no hesitation. Early in the day I was starting to panic when I realized I forgot to hold onto the rings for the detail shots, and Keristin looked and me and said, "You did 100 things right to get to today, don't let anything ruin one bit of this." I felt so grateful for that perspective, and it meant so much to me that she genuinely cared and supported me.
Before the wedding we had several calls regarding the timeline and how to use our time most effectively. I always felt like a priority and knew I could turn to both her and Haley for advice. Following the wedding we received our sneak peaks TWO days after the wedding, which was unbelievable. Then 8 weeks for the full gallery, which was 100% worth the wait.
I was extremely indecisive throughout wedding planning and second guessed many of my decisions. Now that it is all said and done, there are a few things I might have done differently, but using Keristin was by far my best decision. I am reminded of this every time I look through our photos- which so far is everyday!
We used Keristin from Haley Richter Photography for our engagement and wedding photos, and all I can say is – WOW. They were so amazing to work with, so through, and so talented. I’ll lead by saying we got our “sneak peek” photos the day after the wedding – and there were 50 OF THEM! It was so amazing having all of those photos right off the bat, while we wait for the rest of them to come through. Our engagement photos were magical, we shot them in two different locations and we ended up using the photos for our save the dates. The day of the wedding, Keristin was so on-top of everything, she was able to corral everyone and execute shots so quickly. They made a spreadsheet ahead of time with all of the shots that we wanted, to make sure we didn’t miss anything. They were so fun and easy to work with, and the photos are spectacular. I can’t thank Keristin enough!
Haley made us feel comfortable from the moment we met and talked with her. She is so passionate about what she does and is extremely creative in all aspects of photography. She made the planning process simple and even suggested other vendors that she knows are top notch when we were looking for a videographer! The day of the wedding she directed everyone in such a calm way that everyone loved her. You will not go wrong by choosing Haley for your photography - we only have our sneak peeks at this moment and everyone cannot wait to see the rest. She brightens up photos in such a beautiful way and is just magical at what she does.
Haley Richter is amazing! She is super talented and her work is absolutely breathtaking. Not only is she a brilliant photographer but she is also an amazing person. She was so kind, fun, upbeat and easy to work with. She made us feel so comfortable for both our engagement shoot and wedding day. We were hesitant about doing an engagement shoot but we were extremely happy we did. Haley helped to make my husband and I feel so relaxed while capturing tons of lovely photos. She also took so many incredible photos of our wedding day that it has been nearly impossible to choose which ones to use for our photo album. You can tell that Haley loves what she does and goes above and beyond to capture the perfect photos for her clients. We are so happy and feel so lucky that we were able to have Haley Richter as our photographer!
Keristin was a pleasure to work with! We mapped out a schedule prior to our wedding and we stuck to it which made everything run smoothly. Her photos surpassed our expectations and so glad we chose Keristin to capture our special day! I would highly recommend Haley Richter Photography.
Haley is so insanely talented and such a pleasure to work with. Hiring her for our wedding photos was a no-brainer. She works so well with the entire vendor team and helps to ensure that the day runs smoothly. She made us feel so comfortable and gave just enough direction so that our photos looked natural, but not forced. We will treasure our photos forever and definitely hope to work with Haley again for future photos. THANK YOU HALEY!
Haley is the BEST photographer in the Philly area. She did the photography for both my wedding and my sister's wedding. We joke that our parent's house has become a museum of her photos. Her vision is unparalleled and she has an amazing way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. We have done other photo sessions with Haley as well and we will only go to her when it comes to professional photography. I am happy to say that I am a lifelong customer of Haley Richter Photography. She is one of the best decisions you can make for your wedding!
Haley shot my wedding on 4/6/2019 with her amazing assistant Keristin. I don't even know where to begin as there are not enough positive things to say. I spent a ton of time trying to find the right photographer for my wedding day, the photos of the day are a big deal to me. From the moment I met Haley I knew she was the one. Haley made the entire planning process leading up to the wedding a breeze. Her super helpful timeline and detail oriented manner allowed me to go into my wedding day confident that everything would flow smoothly. The best part for me was that Haley was an absolutely pleasure to have around on the wedding day - she kept me super calm and laughing the whole day. I enjoyed her company.
Haley loves light and I love that Haley loves light. I just got my photos back this week and they are just mind blowingly gorgeous. I could not be more in love with every single one of them. Haley is the BEST of the best. Thank you Haley!!!!
Haley and her team are EXCELLENT!! Seriously, don't hesitate to book her right now. One of my best friends used her services for her wedding and they came out so great, that we hired her team too! From engagement photos to wedding photos, Haley made our special celebrations so much fun and easy. PLUS our pictures also came out absolutely stunning! I've received so many compliments from friends and relatives on them.
We worked with Keristin Gaber as part of Haley's team and were BEYOND delighted with the photos they took of our wedding +++ all their support the day before and the day of the wedding. We can't recommend them enough if you want high quality, distinct images to support your memories of a very special day. <3
Haley and Keristin are amazing! From the moment we met Haley, we felt at ease with her. She spent a lot of time with us during our first meeting and we had so much fun with her on our engagement shoot. Prior to the wedding, Haley made us a detailed timeline that served as the foundation for planning the entire day. We took photos with our families and bridal party, then jumped in a car to travel around the city to take some other pictures. Haley and Keristin’s energy was unparalleled throughout the whole day. Our sneak peeks are amazing and we cannot believe how much they look like something out of a magazine. Haley got us our sneak peeks just a few days after our wedding, which included Christmas! My husband and I are so grateful that we found Haley and could work with her for our big day!
