Lily Hayes Photography

We found Lily on The Knot, and loved her natural style. We were taking a chance to choose someone we didn't know-in fact we didn't meet until the wedding day! We could not be happier with our wedding photos! Lily is a professional-she knows exactly what needs to get done, and does it. Her second photographer had an emergency and couldn't make it, and Lily was injured that day too. But she was confident she could get the job done, so I didn't worry. She is all business, but so funny too, and helped me and my husband to relax and forget all the wedding stress and enjoy the sweet moments! Also, I really appreciated her follow-up afterwards. I didn't have to be an anxious bride because I knew when to expect everything. She delivered when she said she would, and always responded to my questions within a day. I think that shows outstanding professionalism that you don't find all the time. She truly cares about pleasing her clients!

I could not have chosen a better photographer. I was and still am MORE than pleased with her work ethic and skills. Lily was extremely helpful with directions (poses&placement) and very aware of her surroundings(backgrounds). I’ve used professional photographers in the past and this was the very first time I didn’t feel awkward or uncomfortable. She’s simply amazing. I received my photos on a USB flash drive edited and in a timely manner. Will be coming back to her for my newborn photos!

Lily is a rock star wedding photographer. We wanted to hire all small business owners for our wedding vendors and Lily Hayes was amazing! I had a hard time deciding on a photographer for my wedding since the venue was outdoors (The Dallas Arboretum) and I’ve seen a lot of outdoor photographers washout weddings. I went through so many wedding photographer’s portfolios and wasn’t 100% happy until looking at Lily’s. She’s so incredibly talented! I loved that she kept our wedding on track with photos and herded our wedding party and family members. We had a very tight timeline and she worked with us. Not only was she great at time management, very professional, organized, talented but she also turned around our photos so quickly. We had a very small wedding (50 people) so I really appreciated that she was able to give us beautiful photos so fast. I highly recommend Lily for her talent and professionalism!

My husband and I got married this past September, I found Lily on the knot and immediately loved her photos. I met with her and one other photographer and instantly liked Lily's personality. She's straight to the point and tells it like it is. She did both our engagements and our wedding and I couldn't be happier with either. Our photos turned out amazing and we have received numerous compliments on the quality. She worked with us on the package we wanted and customized it to exactly what we needed. I wasn't interested in doing bridals so she gave me a second photographer and a little extra time the day of. The second photographer left a little early during the wedding so she gave us an album to replace the money, which was extremely worth it. We received everything, photos and album in a timely manner. Both Lily and her Husband, Mitchell, are extremely wonderful. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome.

I loved our wedding photos! Lily was great at directing everyone and keeping everyone on point on our wedding day. We had so many great photos, it made it hard to choose ones to have blown up onto canvas pictures. She pays attention to details, even down to the really nice flash drive she gives you of all the photos. My husband and guests were very impressed also. I would highly recommend her!!! I’m excited to make our photo book with her also!

I cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Lily! I am so please with how our photos turned out! She was so prompt,professional and so much fun! We were worried we wouldn’t be able to get our dog into photos but Lily was wonderful with our playful and needy pup! She was amazing!!

I would definitely recommend Lily Hayes to anyone! I am in love with my wedding pictures, and have received so many compliments about them. Our wedding was outside, and we had to push our time a little back because of rain. Lily did a great job of getting all the pictures I wanted outside just in time before the rain came! I love the quality of the photos and they were worth every penny! I would love to use her again.

Lily was great to work with! She got beautiful shots and all our family/group wedding photos done in about 25 minutes. She knows what she’s looking for and so there is no time wasted! I loved all my bridals as well and it was really hard to make a choice :) Thank you, Lily, for making my wedding day so memorable!!

We love our wedding photos! Lily Hayes did a great job of capturing our day. We had a simple backyard ceremony without much planning, but it was perfect. She got every action shot as well as many posed pictures that are all very different and creative. It makes it impossible to choose a favorite! Now we have this beautiful collection of photographs to remember our day and we could not have asked for a better photographer.

We had a very low key wedding: at home, poolside, with only our children and our grandchild, and my wife's mother as guests. Lily arrived with cameras in tow, quickly sized up the situation and fit right in. She posed us for some of the pictures and took live action shots for the others. We were extremely pleased with the results, and our friends and family were too. I'm still using one of her shots as my Facebook profile pic. I highly recommend Lily Hayes Photography. Believe me, you won't be disappointed.

Lily is awesome, fun and so easy to work with! My husband and I did a lot of research to find the photographer who is professional, talented, clear, responsive, and with reasonable pricing. We have done engagement pictures, bridal pictures and wedding day pictures with Lily, and we are very, very happy with all of the pictures. Many friends commented on how some of the pictures are magazine-worthy, and it is because Lily really has done such a great job with the setting, with the instructions and timing. We look forward to doing more pictures with her for the next stages of our lives together :)

The Mckee Family would like to thank Lily and Mitchell for doing an amazing job this past weekend! We could not have asked for a better duo! They were awesome to work with! We have only seen sneak peak photo's and video but they already look perfect!! We would highly recommend them!! Thanks so much for everything you two!!

Lily is AMAZING!!! I've never been professionally photographed before so she was very helpful with suggestions. We did an engagement session with her to warm up for our wedding photos and I'm so glad we did! She's got a great personality and is very fun to work with! We look forward to future sessions with her as we start our family!

Lily was so much fun to work with and she truly cared about making sure we were satisfied with the photos... And the way she captures the natural light on the photographs is truly breathtaking! We truly recommend her to everyone! P.S. Mitchel was also awesome and we loved seeing them work together!

Lily is fantastic! Really listens to her clients requests and ideas but then also is able to put her professional opinion and keen eye! I would recommend Lily to several newly engaged couples as well as ones that might have a little one on the way! I look forward to many more photoshoots with Lily as our family continues to grow!

I was absolutely FLOORED with how amazing our wedding pictures turned out. I can't even begin to explain how happy I am with our wedding pictures- it was so fun to look through all of those pictures and see things I never saw on that day. Lily's attention to detail and passion for her work product make her amazing at what she does. Lily is dedicated and goes beyond expectation in order to deliver outstanding photos and she aims to give you the best she's got. Lily did our engagement photos, my bridals, and our wedding day and I was beyond pleased with each session. Not only is she an incredible photographer, she is fun, sweet, and easy to work with. I consider her a friend and plan to continue working with her when we decide to start a family. I cannot recommend Lily enough - she offers great packages and she is worth every dollar. Thank you for everything Lily - from the bottom of my heart!

An amazing photographer at a great price! I loved our engagement, pictures! She let us include our lil pup Napoleon and even got him to look at the camera at the right moment! I loves my bridals and our wedding pictures were just gorgeous! Thank you Lily!!!

Lily is absolutely amazing. My engagement photos and bridals turned out better than I could have hoped for. One of my favorite things about her is how fast she responds when I had questions. She always got my pictures back to me so quick. My wedding was less than a month ago, so I have not seen my wedding photos yet, but I am so excited! I absolutely recommend her.

The wedding was on Sep 5th 2015 and Lily and her husband did an amazing job! Lily was very accommodating and very prompt with her photos. She did my engagement photos, bridal photos, family photos and wedding photos. We are all very happy with the results and professionalism that she provided. I opted last minute to do family photos since my husbands mom fell ill with cancer and we were all afraid that she would not make it to the wedding. She was very understanding and was able to squeeze in the time for a family shoot. Her understanding and being available meant the world to us and I am very happy with all of her hard work that she did.

Lily was a great photographer for our engagement and wedding! I was so happy to have found her. My wedding party was large (LARGE), and she handled, yes handled us all with grace and professionalism. I honestly don't know how she did it, because I could barely deal! :) We are so happy with all of our photos, and she did a fantastic job. Would OVER-recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding photographer to capture their special moments! She is wonderful!

Lily did my pictures for my graduation photo shoot in December 2014. She is extremely nice and attentive to her clients and follows up with you in every way possible. I absolutely love my pictures and get many compliments up to this day! Her work is exceptional and completed in a good amount of time.

Lily was great to work with. Her pictures turned out beautifully and our whole family was happy with the experience. My only complaint is that we had sent her example shots of what we wanted the day of the wedding a month prior and she did not bring them with her. She was eventually able to pull them up on her phone, so all ended well, but it made me feel a bit uneasy she wasn't prepared. In the end, she did an amazing job, and was a great value.

Lily was very professional and made sure we got the kind of photos we wanted, she also was prepared for the shoot and had checked our location out beforehand for us as well. I was overall very impressed and loved our photos which she got back to us in 3 days! Will come back for family photos and newborn photos one day :)

She was on time gave me a really good deal since I had a small budget.. Wish she told me to smile more but that is on me.. but love most pictures.. She was also really fast in getting me the pics on disc.. not too mention she was just really nice..

Lily was a pleasure to work with. She was very accommodating. We were able to make payments to her through PayPal in the months before our wedding, which helped us out tremendously. She definitely kept some of our rowdy bridal party under control. She got our pictures back to us within two weeks which was wonderful! The pictures were stunning as well. We can't wait to use her for our baby photos in the future! :)

We used Lily Hayes Photography for our engagement, bridal, and wedding pictures. All of our pictures turned out great! We had a fantastic experience through out the whole process and would definitely use her services again. Thank you for the great job !

We could not be happier with the photographs Lily took at our wedding! She was very prepared with ideas for poses and was able to give us clear instructions on how to pose. She was also very patient with our large families while we got pictures with everyone. We received all of the pictures 2 weeks after the wedding and they look great!

I couldn't be happier with my wedding photos. They are no doubt the best part of my special day. Every person who sees my photos are blown away with how good they are. Lily Hayes was professional in communication, prompt with replies, and lightening fast with the finished product. I got married on a Saturday, I had a sneak peek within 24 hours, and she edited and finished my pics by Sunday!!! She put a disk in the mail and it was in my mailbox by Tuesday. I waited 3 weeks on engagement photos from someone else. I only wish I found Lily Hayes sooner. She was definitely reasonably priced. Looking at her website, I didn't think I would be able to afford her. I was very pleasantly surprised when I could. Just blown away by what I received for the amount of money. I recommend her to anyone. I'll be using her when I have kids because her newborn photos are precious too. One thing I really appreciated about Lily was her "take control/take charge" way about her. With all the planning I did for this wedding it felt so good to let someone else take over for the pictures. It was a huge load off. She took pictures of things I wanted without me asking. She just knew. She's a PRO! I could go on and on. Thank you, Lily Hayes, for capturing the happiest day of my life in such a beautiful way. My grand babies will appreciate these photos. They'll be a treasure for many many years to come.

Used this photographer for our August 23rd wedding. Just received our pictures and all the pictures were in Kilobyte size. I asked in a email and in a text message for the pictures in 16 bit TIFF mode so I could blow them up larger. She never said no and we even talked on the phone about this and everything was good. Now she says I cannot have my pictures in the high resolution mode I asked for and will be sending pictures to me that will equal out to 1-2 megs a piece. I do know about photography and the pictures should be larger in size, even in jpg form. I am not a happy camper and do not recommend this photographer at all. I see Lily has commented on my review. She has flat out lied about a contract being signed!! Never signed one and if she can produce one that I physically signed, I will give her 1000.00 and a flat out apology! I only asked for 16 bit TIFF files so they could be blown up. The jpg's she gave me are only 2.0 mgs in size at the largest. Cannot blow it up past an 11x17. The watermark is there so I will edit that out. I am a truck driver and have been doing photography for quite a bit longer than Lily. Look at my website and see the difference in the pictures, especially the B&W. Her's is greyscale. No depth to them at all. I would never give anyone their pictures with a watermark on it!! That just makes no sense at all! You can decide for yourself on using her or not. I just know that I got the shaft on this and should have looked a little harder and gotten a contract signed before my wedding. You try to trust people and believe the good but seems as though you get let down time after time!

Lily's work is amazing! The prices are very reasonable and her talent is outstanding! I did not get a chance to meet her before the wedding but from the moment I met her and her husband everything just flowed wonderfully. She let us know exactly what was needed to get the prefect shots and even brought sparklers to make it extra special. I am so glad we chose her as our photographer and would absolutely recommend her to everyone.

Lily Hayes Photography is great

I was very pleased with my experience with Mrs. Hayes she made me feel very comfortable and made it very fun. Her work is incredible and she is very talented. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get professional photographs done.
